The U.S. Army Garrison Hawaii is pursuing a privatization requirement to provide wastewater collection and treatment services at Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA) and Kilauea Military Camp (KMC), on the Island of Hawaii in accordance with 10 USC 2688, Ut ility Systems: Conveyance Authority and Department of Defense Reform Initiative Directive #49, Privatizing Utility Systems, dated 23 December 1998. Should privatization prove to be economical, a firm will be selected to purchase and assume ownership of t he above-mentioned utility system. The successful firm will be required to improve the present system to meet industry standards.
