This is a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the Town of Cheshire, Connecticut, solicitation number 2425-10, seeking qualified contractors for hauling dewatered wastewater sludge from the Cheshire Water Pollution Control Department (WPCD). The procurement is open to all vendors, with a solicitation period running from September 17, 2024, at 11:15 AM EDT to October 4, 2024, at 2:00 PM EDT. A vendor Q&A period is scheduled from September 17 at 1:00 PM EDT through September 25 at 4:00 PM EDT, during which potential bidders can submit questions to the contact person. The WPCD treats municipal sanitary wastewater, along with some commercial and industrial flows, and requires a contractor to transport the dewatered sludge produced by the facility.

The RFP specifies delivery terms as Free On Board Destination, with payment terms to be vendor-specified. No specific contract value, set-asides, or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are mentioned in the documentation. The primary point of contact is Marek L. Kement, P.E., L.S., Director of Engineering, who can be reached at mkement@cheshirect.org or by fax at 203-271-6659. The solicitation appears to be a straightforward procurement opportunity for a sludge hauling service, with no apparent restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. While a separate detailed sludge hauling specification document is referenced, it was not included in the provided materials, so vendors should carefully review all available documentation to prepare comprehensive proposals demonstrating their capability to effectively transport dewatered wastewater sludge.
