ARC Southern California is the reprographer for this project, and my hunch is that ARC got this reprographics job either because the engineering firm (Black & Veatch) uses ARC or because ARC has a contract (for reprographics services) with OCWD.
“PUBLIC ADVERTISMENT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE
Initial Expansion of the Groundwater Replenishment System”
Pre-qualified general contractors interested in submitting bids for construction of the Initial Expansion of the Groundwater Replenishment System must purchase one complete set of bidding documents (plans and specifications).

Big deal, it is likely that the most this ARC office will sell is 9 full sets (1 for each GC), plus maybe some for planrooms or architect willing to pay for them. From there, the GC's will copy them or scan them to post to their own ftp sites and push them out to their subs to submit their bids to the GC's. Enjoy the $4-5 grand.
