This is a Replacement Bid Set Drawings document for the City of Daytona Beach, Florida, detailing the comprehensive replacement of Master Wastewater Lift Station #62. The project involves complete demolition and reconstruction of the existing wastewater facility, requiring a qualified general contractor to construct a new submersible pump station featuring a 16-foot inner diameter circular wet well, three duty pumps, one standby pump with variable frequency drives, an air-conditioned electrical building, pad-mounted transformer, standby generator, and pole barn for equipment storage. Additional deliverables include installation of new sanitary manholes, rehabilitation of existing manholes and gravity sewer pipelines, new stainless steel and ductile iron discharge piping, erosion controls, site grading, fencing, and landscaping. The non-mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for January 13, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. via Microsoft Teams, with written questions due by January 27, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Bid proposals are required by February 3, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. through the OpenGov Procurement Platform at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/codb. All submissions must be made online; paper bids will not be accepted. The project accommodates a design flow of 2,400 gallons per minute and includes 20 lump-sum line items covering various project phases with an additional $10,000 owner's allowance for permit fees.

Bidder qualifications require a current Florida General Contractor's License and three verifiable references from projects completed within the last ten years, with at least one reference demonstrating a wastewater lift station with a 16-foot or greater diameter and another showing complex wetwell excavation techniques.
