This is a Technical Specifications document for a Water Main Interconnection project in Dorchester County, Connecticut, involving the installation of 2,300 linear feet of new 12-inch ductile iron water main and a pressure reducing/meter vault. The project requires construction services across multiple disciplines including general construction requirements, excavation, traffic control, water distribution systems, paving, and erosion control measures. A pre-bid conference is scheduled for 10:00 AM on March 31, 2026, at the Town Hall in Berlin, Connecticut, located at 240 Kensington Road.

The document does not contain explicit information regarding pricing terms, set-asides for disadvantaged business enterprises, incumbent contractors, or funding sources and amounts. The broader RFP solicitation for on-call geotechnical engineering services indicates proposals will be evaluated on a point-based system with evaluation criteria including firm qualifications (30 points), key personnel (25 points), project experience (20 points), technical approach (15 points), and references (10 points). The contract will operate on a task order basis with fees submitted for individual projects, providing flexibility in project assignment and scope.
