Addendum_1_RFB DES 2025-01.pdf

This document is an Addendum (#01) issued by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services in collaboration with the Lake Winnipesaukee Alliance (LWA) for the Request for Bid (RFB) Invitation # RFB DES 2025-01. The original RFB solicited proposals for the installation of stormwater management and erosion control measures at Melvin Wharf Road in Tuftonboro, with the goal of reducing polluted stormwater runoff and nutrient loading to Lake Winnipesaukee. However, the addendum announces the cancellation of the current RFB due to the discovery of site conditions incompatible with the originally proposed construction. The bid is to be reissued with revised information at a later date, with the original RFB closing date set for 04/18/2025 at 4:00 PM (EST).

The addendum indicates that the project will require re-evaluation of the site conditions before re-issuing the bid, suggesting potential modifications to the original scope of work. The contact for further information is Pat Tarpey, who can be reached at ptarpey@winnipesaukee.org. While the specific funding sources and budget are not detailed in this addendum, the previous context suggests the project is partially funded through a grant from the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services using Clean Water Act Section 319 funds from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The cancellation and planned re-issuance of the bid demonstrate a commitment to ensuring project feasibility and environmental effectiveness before proceeding with contract award.
