This is Addendum No. 1 to a solicitation issued by the Sewerage & Water Board of New Orleans (SWBNO) for the procurement of River Sand and Mason Sand under Solicitation Number 2026_SWB-35. Bids are due October 8, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. CST with bid opening scheduled at 11:30 a.m. CST. The contract includes a 2-year initial term with three 1-year renewal options. Delivery locations include the Central Yard at 2900 Peoples Avenue, New Orleans, Louisiana 70122, and other Board facilities within New Orleans city limits including Algiers. River Sand must be sourced from the spillway area of the Mississippi River, and all materials must meet ASTM specifications and include required testing and certification documentation.

The addendum clarifies that the bid form has been updated to reflect pricing in cubic yards rather than tons, addressing a supplier concern that materials are typically sold and weighed by yards rather than by tonnage. All materials must be tested and certified to confirm source compliance and quality standards. Quantities are estimated and on an as-needed basis only. The procurement establishes a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goal of 30%. Payment follows delivery and inspection of materials. Bidders are responsible for knowledge of all addendums issued for this invitation to bid.
