- Description
- Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Procurement. The Government intends to issue a sole source contract for the privatization of the electric distribution system for the Channel Islands Air National Guard Station (ANGS) located in Port Hueneme,California, to Southern California Edison Company (SCEC). Privatization is defined as the transfer of ownership and responsibility for the operations, maintenance, repair, future upgrades, and future utility system replacements. The SCEC (Contractor) will assume ownership of the above-mentioned utility system and will be required to provide expansions to the system to meet future needs of the government. The resulting contract, if awarded, will require the Contractor to furnish all facilities, labor, materials, tools, and equipment necessary to own, maintain, and operate the utility system. The Contractor shall manage the maintenance, repairs, replacement, etc., of the system to ensure continuous, adequate, and dependable service for each Government or tenant connection within the service area. The Contractor shall be responsible for funding all capital investments required to acquire, maintain and operate the utility system in a safe, reliable condition and to meet the requirements listed in the contract. The utility system will be conveyed via a Bill of Sale upon award of the contract. The electric system being privatized is described as follows: The 146th Airlift Wing (AW) of the California Air National Guard occupies 206 acres of fee-owned land adjacent to the Point Mugu Naval Air Station, an active duty Navy flying installation. The Channel Islands ANG Station is located 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles in Port Hueneme, California. The mission of the 146th AW is to provide global military airliftcapability to a full spectrum of state and federal agencies. The unit currently flies the C-130 Hercules. The 146th AW occupies two administrative, nine industrial, and four services buildings totaling approximately 345,191 square feet with 354 full-time personnel. A unit training drill is conducted once a month and results in a surge of up to a total of 1,204 personnel. Power is provided by Southern California Edison Company (SCEC) and enters the base at one location. It is delivered and distributed at 16.5 kV through an underground radially configured system. The primary distribution system consists of approximately 10,700 linear feet of 3-phase, 3-wire underground circuits rated at 25 kV and 10,700 linear feet of 600 V ground wire. The underground circuits are in multiple conduit ductbanks buried at an average depth of 18 inches and are not marked with tracer wire. The ductbanks vary in number of conduits from two to twelve and conduit diameter ranges from two to five inches. Multiple branches feed eleven 3-phase pad mounted transformers ranging from 75 to 750 kVA. The system includes 37 manholes, one main switchgear, two switchgear panels, twelve breakers, ten fuses, ten surge arrestors, and three meters. Base personnel indicate the capacity of the current system is adequate for present and future needs. Competitive proposals were requested in 2002 and no offers were received. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of DoD Utility Privatization Policy dated 2002. However, interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. This information shall include: confirmation of your understanding that the requirement includes purchasing the distribution system, and then entering into a 50-year contract for the operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the system; furnish us with references indicating your prior experience operating, maintaining, repairing and replacing such systems; and indicate how you would meet the emergency response time requirement of one hour. All responses received within ten calendar days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Interested sources shall contact MSgt Jon D.
