About this file
This is a Performance Bond document applicable to the City of Meriden's B027-11 Merimere Liner Replacement project in Connecticut, a water filtration plant rehabilitation initiative. The bond serves as a financial guarantee that the contractor will faithfully perform all work in accordance with the contract terms and conditions. The Merimere Water Filtration Plant project involves removing and disposing of the sand/sludge layer, repairing and replacing the underdrain system, reconstructing the access ramp, removing filter fabric and geomembrane, and ensuring proper compaction of the gravel base. The facility, originally constructed in 1963 with lagoon improvements in 2002, comprises two lagoons totaling approximately 12,800 square feet and has a capacity of 1.2 million gallons per day. The project is necessary due to deterioration of the lagoon systems that compromises treatment performance and environmental compliance.
The Performance Bond requires the contractor and surety to be jointly and severally liable for the bond amount, with the surety waiving notice of any contract alterations or defaults. Should the contractor default, the owner may either have the surety complete the work according to contract terms or solicit bids for completion, with the surety responsible for covering completion costs minus the remaining contract balance. The bond includes a two-year statute of limitations from the date final payment is due, and only the named owner has rights of action under the bond. The project is federally funded through the Environmental Protection Agency, making it subject to Federal Labor Standards Provisions and Davis-Bacon and Related Acts prevailing wage requirements.
