Description
The Bureau of Reclamation is seeking a contractor to repair Well 2 at the BGNDRF facility in Alamogordo, New Mexico. The well is currently operational but has experienced a decline in productivity, and the contractor will need to clean and inspect the well, as well as install a new pump. The available water source is brackish, with a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) concentration of approximately 6,000 mg/L. The contractor will need to consider this water quality specification when preparing their proposal.
Key points to consider:
• The well is currently producing air that is not bleeding off, and previous visits by a local well company have indicated potential issues with the pump, motor, check valve, or other equipment.
• The existing controls will be used with the new pump.
• The contractor will need to dispose of any spent acid or chemicals used during the cleanout, and the government will send the water to an evaporation pond.
• The well is located at 500 La Velle Rd, Alamogordo, NM, 88310.
• The period of performance is from December 8, 2025, to February 6, 2026.
