The scope of work contained within this project is currently as follows:
The Tulalip Tribes and the Indian Health Service have partnered on a project to construct a new sewage lift station and to bring the non-functioning treatment track of an existing wastewater treatment facility back into full operation. This project includes replacement of an existing lift station located adjacent to the treatment facility with a new 1200 gpm vacuum prime packaged lift station and wet-well and the replacement of ~20 lf of undersized pressurized wastewater line.
The existing activated sludge sewage treatment track was originally constructed in the mid-1970's and operates in parallel with a currently well-functioning treatment track. This project will require close coordination with normal and continuous treatment operations at the facility. The facility improvements include electrical and control upgrades, fine-screen installation, headworks modifications, oxidation ditch modifications, clarifier modifications, return/waste activated sludge pumps and vault modifications, general yard piping, valve replacement, storm drain system installation and other related requirements. Some of the improvements are direct replacement of equipment, while some work is new construction. The project site is located at 3015 Mission Beach Dr., Tulalip, WA 98271 in the Tulalip Bay area of the Tulalip Reservation.
Some work items may be separated out as option items.
Project completion time is currently defined to be 360 calendar days after the notice to proceed.
This is NOT a request for proposal and there is no solicitation nor are there construction documents available at this time.
