city of rockford lead service line 11I.pdf

This is a Scope of Work document for the City of Rockford, Illinois, detailing a Lead Service Line Replacement project designated as Phase 11I. The project involves the replacement of approximately 400 residential water service lines through either open-cut trenching operations or directional boring methods. Upon successful connection of newly installed pipe, existing lines are to be abandoned in place. Each bid submission shall be based on a unit price for one completed service line replacement, allowing for straightforward comparison and evaluation of contractor proposals.

The document establishes that pricing shall be submitted on a per-service basis, enabling the City to evaluate costs uniformly across all bid proposals. The project represents a continuation of Rockford's lead service line replacement initiative, with this phase targeting residential properties within the city's jurisdiction. Contractors must be prepared to execute work using both traditional trenching and trenchless technologies, demonstrating capability in multiple installation methodologies to accommodate varying site conditions and constraints throughout the project area.
