The National Park Service (NPS) is soliciting proposals for the rehabilitation of the Canyon Village Wastewater Treatment System in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. This is a pre-solicitation announcement for an upcoming RFP, expected to be issued around October 1, 2025. The project involves extensive construction services including site civil/utilities, various treatment facilities (headworks, bioreactors, digester, process, dewater), drying beds, pump stations, generator buildings, force mains, and telemetry integration. The estimated price range is over $10 million, with a performance period of 975 calendar days. A pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for October 22, 2025. This is an unfunded requirement with a high expectation of funding availability. Proposals are due December 19, 2025. The procurement will be full and open, encouraging participation from small businesses. Vendors must be registered with SAM.gov and have a UEI number to conduct business with the federal government.
The document exclusively lists a series of dates, all falling between August 26, 2025, and August 27, 2025. Several entries explicitly state "DIGITALLY SIGNED" on August 26, 2025. This suggests the document is a record of specific actions or events, likely related to official procedures such as the signing or approval of documents, within a very narrow two-day timeframe. In the context of government RFPs, federal grants, or state/local RFPs, these dates could represent critical deadlines, submission dates, approval dates, or the execution of legally binding agreements.
The document provides a detailed topographic survey of the Canyon Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) and Lift Station areas within Yellowstone National Park, prepared by Jacobs. It includes extensive mapping of sanitary, storm, water, electric, gas, and communication utilities, along with key infrastructure like buildings (Headworks, Blower, Storage, AWT, Generator, Lift Station), lagoons, drying beds, and roads (Gravel, Norris Canyon, Grand Loop, Asphalt). The survey specifies elevations for various manholes, culverts, and building finished floors. Detailed notes clarify that the survey is for reference, not a title or boundary survey, and that subsurface utility locates were performed but not guaranteed to be exhaustive. Project coordinates are based on Wyoming State Plane West Central Zone NAD83 (2011) and elevations on NGS benchmark CVO 85 230 (NAVD88 elevation 7922.68). Fieldwork was conducted between October 2021 and November 2023, with utility locates from June and July 2023. The document is crucial for understanding the existing infrastructure and topography for potential future federal government RFPs, grants, or state/local RFPs related to infrastructure projects in this area.
The Yellowstone National Park's Canyon Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is undergoing a landscape restoration project, detailed across multiple plan areas (1-7), the Brink of Upper Falls Lift Station, and the Government Lift Station. The project focuses on restoring disturbed landscapes, primarily through topsoil preparation, spreading, mulching, and owner-performed seeding operations. Contractor responsibilities include determining existing conditions, which are based on topographic surveys, record drawings, and aerial imagery. The plans also address wildland-urban interface fire protection, including specific tree removal zones to preserve visual screening. A key note for the Government Force Main restoration is the strict prohibition on removing or modifying White Bark Pine trees, an endangered species. The project encompasses various facilities within the WWTP, collection systems, and lift station areas, emphasizing comprehensive restoration efforts.
The provided government file exclusively contains repetitive digital signatures and dates, specifically "DIGITALLY SIGNED: 08/26/2025" and various instances of "08/26/2025" and "08/27/2025". The document appears to be a log or record of digital signings occurring on August 26th and 27th, 2025, with the majority falling on the former date. No other content or information is present to ascertain its main topic, purpose, or context within federal government RFPs, federal grants, or state/local RFPs. Therefore, the file's sole identifiable purpose is to document these digital signature events.
The government file predominantly consists of dates, specifically August 26, 2025, and August 27, 2025, with several entries explicitly marked as "DIGITALLY SIGNED: 08/26/2025." The document appears to be a log or record of activities, approvals, or events that occurred on these two consecutive dates. The frequent mention of "DIGITALLY SIGNED" suggests that these entries represent formal endorsements or authenticated actions, likely related to administrative or procedural steps within a government process such as an RFP, grant, or other official transaction. The absence of additional contextual information beyond dates and digital signature indicators prevents a more specific interpretation of the document's exact purpose, but it clearly serves as a chronological record of official actions.
The "CANYON VILLAGE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT" project in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming (YELL 326133) is a comprehensive rehabilitation and upgrade initiative. It involves the demolition of existing structures and the construction of new facilities at the Canyon Village Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) site, including Headworks, Process, Bioreactor/Digester, Dewatering, Drying Beds, Intraplant Pump Station, and Generator Buildings. The project also entails the rehabilitation of existing Lagoons 1 and 3 (renamed Holding Ponds), and the construction of new underground diesel and propane storage systems. Additionally, the scope covers the Government Force Main, rehabilitation of the existing Government Lift Station Generator Building, construction of a new Government Area Lift Station, and upgrades to the Canyon WWTP Influent sewer and Government Area Sewer. Optional work includes the Brink of Upper Falls Lift Station and an Operation and Maintenance Storage Building. The project requires extensive coordination with utility providers like Northwestern Energy (NWE) and Lumen, adherence to sustainable design requirements, natural features protection, and strict safety protocols, with a projected completion date in August 2025.
Shannon & Wilson prepared a Geotechnical Data Report for Jacobs Government Services Company concerning the replacement and rehabilitation of three water and wastewater treatment plants (WTPs/WWTPs) and associated collection systems at Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. The project areas include Canyon Village, Grant Village, and Old Faithful. The report synthesizes data from field reconnaissance, geophysical surveys, subsurface explorations (34 borings and 6 groundwater monitoring wells), and laboratory testing conducted between 2021 and 2024. It details existing geotechnical information and subsurface conditions, including glacial deposits and altered volcanic bedrock, across the three sites. The report provides geological interpretations and findings without offering engineering recommendations, which are provided in a separate Geotechnical Report.
The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to rehabilitate, replace, or improve wastewater and water treatment facilities at four Yellowstone National Park locations: Mammoth, Old Faithful, Grant, and Canyon Villages. An Aquatic Resources Delineation Report (August 2022) describes and maps approximately 6.0 acres of wetlands (5.52 acres palustrine emergent, 0.19 acres palustrine scrub-shrub, 0.27 acres palustrine forested) and 0.75 acres of "other waters of the United States" (OWoUS) across all study areas. The delineation followed USACE manuals and guidance. The report details the specific aquatic features and their acreage for each village. The project aims to address deficiencies in existing systems, such as replacing sewer systems and improving water treatment plants. The boundaries of potential Waters of the United States (WoUS) are preliminary and require verification by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The NPS is committed to "no net loss of wetlands" and employs strategies to avoid, minimize, and compensate for wetland impacts, consistent with Executive Order 11990 and Clean Water Act regulations.
Terracon Consultants, Inc. conducted a Regulated Building Materials (RBM) survey for the Canyon Village Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Project in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. The survey, performed in October 2021, included an asbestos survey, lead paint inspection, and hazardous building materials inventory across eight WWTP buildings. No asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) were identified through laboratory analysis, but pipe flange gaskets in several buildings were assumed to be Category I nonfriable ACM due to inaccessibility for sampling. Lead paint was detected in four lift stations, requiring compliance with USOSHA regulations. The hazardous building materials inventory identified various items, including mercury-vapor containing lamps/tubes, emergency lamp batteries, fire extinguishers, and tritium exit signs, all requiring proper management and disposal in accordance with federal and state regulations. The survey recommends further inspection for unassessed areas, particularly building roofs, and adherence to all applicable environmental and safety standards during planned renovations.
Attachment 5, titled "General References," is a crucial form for offerors submitting proposals to the government. Its primary purpose is to collect comprehensive reference information from the offeror, including details about their surety, corporate banks, insurance company, subcontractors, and material suppliers. Offerors are instructed to provide accurate and legible information, including area codes for all telephone numbers. A key requirement is the candid disclosure of any less-than-satisfactory relationships with references, along with explanations of remedial actions taken or planned. Failure to disclose such instances may lead to an unfavorable assessment of the offeror's past performance, as it could be interpreted as a lack of candor. This attachment serves as a vital tool for the government to evaluate an offeror's financial stability, operational relationships, and past performance record, which are critical considerations in federal government RFPs, federal grants, and state and local RFPs.
The Past Performance Questionnaire (Solicitation No. 140P2025R0103) is a critical document for evaluating contractor performance in federal government RFPs. It requires offerors to complete sections A (Offeror Information) and B (Contract Information for Past Project) before transmitting it to a reference. The reference then completes sections C (Reference) and D (Evaluation) and returns it to the Contracting Officer. The questionnaire, deemed Source Selection Sensitive, explicitly states that information provided does not imply government endorsement or allow contractors to use it for promotional purposes. Section D provides a detailed evaluation framework with definitions for "Exceptional," "Very Good," "Satisfactory," "Marginal," and "Unsatisfactory" ratings across various areas, including Quality, Schedule, Cost Control, Management, Small Business Subcontracting, and Regulatory Compliance. The document concludes with an overall recommendation and return instructions for December 18, 2025, to the National Park Service – Denver Service Center.
The Project Experience Questionnaire (Solicitation 140P2025R0103) is a government document designed for offerors to detail their past project experience relevant to a solicitation's evaluation subfactors. It requires comprehensive information about referenced projects, including title, location, description, and owner details. Offerors must list all contractors involved (prime and subcontractors), specifying their roles, trades, original and final prices, and performance periods. The questionnaire includes seven detailed questions prompting descriptions of work performed, how it addresses solicitation elements, reasons for price and schedule changes, encountered problems and their resolutions, successful means and methods, and any additional pertinent information. This document is critical for evaluating a contractor's capability and experience for federal government RFPs, grants, and state/local RFPs.
The "SMALL BUSINESS PARTICIPATION DOCUMENT" is a mandatory attachment for all Offerors, both large and small businesses, outlining their proposed level of small business participation in federal government RFPs, federal grants, and state and local RFPs. Offerors must identify their prime business size and categories (e.g., Small Disadvantaged Business, Woman-Owned Small Business). The document requires a breakdown of the total percentage of work performed by both large and small businesses, including specific percentages for various small business categories such as HUBZone, Veteran Owned, and Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses. Additionally, Offerors must list the principal supplies/services to be performed by small businesses and describe their commitment to using small businesses, including any contractual or joint venturing arrangements. Non-U.S. Small Businesses are also required to submit a separate subcontracting plan compliant with FAR 52.219-9, addressing all 15 elements of FAR 19.704, which must be consistent with their Small Business Participation Plan. Small businesses themselves are exempt from submitting a subcontracting plan. This document ensures transparency and commitment to small business involvement in government contracts.
This document, "Attachment 7 SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING PLAN," outlines the requirements and procedures for large businesses proposing on federal government contracts exceeding $750,000 (or $1,500,000 for construction) to establish and submit a small business subcontracting plan. The plan is mandated by FAR 52.219-9 and aims to ensure maximum practicable utilization of small businesses, including Small Business (SB), Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), HUBZone, Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) concerns. Key elements include establishing specific subcontracting goals, outlining methods for identifying potential subcontractors, defining the responsibilities of a Subcontracting Program Administrator, detailing outreach and internal efforts to foster equitable opportunities, and specifying reporting and recordkeeping requirements. The document also includes a section for formal review and acceptance by the Contracting Officer, Small Business Specialists, and the SBA Procurement Center Representative, ensuring compliance and commitment to the outlined goals.
