This is a Stormwater Pollution Control Plan Report prepared for the City of Bridgeport's Runway 11-29 Rehabilitation and Airport Terminal Parking Lot Rehabilitation project at Sikorsky Memorial Airport in Stratford, Connecticut. The project encompasses mill and overlay rehabilitation of Runway 11-29, taxiway rehabilitation across six taxiways (D, H, E, K, J, and A), removal of deteriorated runway shoulders, replacement of runway light fixtures and electrical systems, underground electrical infrastructure installation, runway and taxiway markings, drainage improvements, and mill and overlay of the terminal loop road and parking lots across seven phased construction areas. The base bid work is scheduled for 90 consecutive calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with optional alternates adding up to 30 additional days for a maximum contract duration of 120 calendar days. Electronic bid submissions are required through the City's OpenGov Procurement Portal with a deadline of 2:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Thursday, March 19, 2026. The written question submission cutoff is 4:00 p.m. on Friday, February 20, 2026. A mandatory pre-bid conference is required to address material requirements, quality control procedures, construction safety and phasing plans, and airport access procedures, with site visits available during normal working hours by appointment.

The project requires compliance with Connecticut prevailing wage rates effective January 26, 2026, ranging from $21.42 to $59.91 per hour plus fringe benefits of $13.95 to $43.62 per hour. Qualified contractors must be Connecticut-licensed, maintain valid SAM, DUNS, Connecticut, and Federal Tax ID numbers, perform at least 25 percent of the work with their own organization, and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage including $2,000,000 general liability aggregate and $5,000,000 umbrella/excess liability. Bid security of 10 percent of the maximum bid price is required, along with performance bonds, payment bonds, and a maintenance bond each at 100 percent of the contract amount (except the maintenance bond at 25 percent). The project is subject to a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise program set-aside of eight percent of the contract cost, with federal requirements superseding all state and local requirements. Monthly progress payments with 5 percent retainage are held until final acceptance. Liquidated damages are assessed at $500 per day for individual phase milestones and $1,500 per day for overall construction completion delays, with mobilization limited to 10 percent of total project cost. The contract award will be made to the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid that is most advantageous to the City. Contractors must comply with all FAA regulations, Connecticut Department of Transportation specifications, and applicable federal, state, and local regulations.
