Award Information

This Award Information document pertains to the 2021 Millen CDBG project in Georgia, a comprehensive infrastructure improvement initiative in the City of Millen. The project encompasses sanitary sewerage system rehabilitation involving the replacement of approximately 1,405 linear feet of clay sewer mains with 8" HDPE sewer mains using pipe burst methodology, along with sewer lateral and manhole rehabilitation. Water system improvements include installation of 1,078 linear feet of 6" C-900 PVC water main, two connections to existing water main infrastructure, three new 6" gate valves, and a 6" fire hydrant assembly with a 6" cut-off valve. Drainage improvements consist of 2,190 linear feet of 24" rollover curb and gutter, 122 linear feet of 24" storm pipe, 528 linear feet of 18" storm pipe, and 376 linear feet of 15" storm pipe, supplemented by curb inlets, pavement replacement, roadway pavement overlay, sediment control, and grassing work.

The initial round of bidding for this project resulted in all bids being refused due to budget constraints. The project is currently being re-bid with adjusted parameters to align with available funding. This CDBG-funded initiative represents a critical infrastructure modernization effort for the municipality, and the re-bidding process indicates a need for cost-effective solutions while maintaining the scope of necessary improvements to water, sewer, and drainage systems.
