About this file

This is a Drinking Water Plans and Specifications Review Checklist prepared by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) for Bay County's Water Treatment Plant (WTP) Resiliency Project. The project involves the installation of new filters and appurtenances for the existing water treatment plant located at 3400 Transmitter Road, Panama City, Florida. Specifically, the work includes construction of three (3) additional sand gravity type filters at the facility. The contract submission deadline is 2:00 pm on Thursday, June 4, 2026, with public opening of submissions to follow immediately. The project completion time is specified as 432 days. The checklist confirms that all required permits, including environmental permits and Army Corps of Engineers permits, have been received, though the selected contractor will be responsible for providing any remaining permits. All work is contained within the existing county-owned site.

This project represents the final phase of an already-approved loan agreement and is funded through grant sources. The FDEP review confirms that the design documents contain no ineligible items, are consistent with planning documentation recommendations, and include the most current FDEP Supplementary Conditions. The contract specifications clearly define formal advertising and bid opening procedures, bid evaluation methods including additives and deducts, "or equal" clauses for equipment and materials, bond requirements for bidding and performance, and procedures for issuing changes to bidding and contract documents. The checklist was approved on April 17, 2026, by Project Manager Timothy L. Owens and Program Administrator Eric V. Meyers, with an effective date of December 2025.
