The FFY17‑18 DERA Project is a federal‑aid, state‑matched contract to replace aging diesel generators with EPA Tier 3 marine‑diesel engines at three remote Alaskan villages (Chignik Lake, Circle, and Takotna). The contractor must supply all labor, materials, supervision, equipment, transportation, quality‑control, and related services, including new engines, fuel and lube‑oil piping, exhaust systems, electrical switchgear, and associated testing and commissioning. The award is a lump‑sum contract (engineer’s estimate $1‑1.25 M) with a 5 % bid bond, 100 % performance and payment bonds, insurance requirements, DBE/EEO compliance, and liquidated‑damages of $500 per day for late completion. Key milestones include bid opening 9 Apr 2020, substantial completion by 8 Sep 2020, and final completion by 22 Sep 2020.
