Description: This project proposes to replace the 83 year old potable water underground distribution system, including the water mains, sub-mains, and the service laterals that are located in the two lower elevation water service areas of the North Rim complex (EDR area - Lodge area). This is a Phase II project for replacement of water distribution mains at North Rim. The proposed Phase II replacement project will replace all of the water mains, sub-mains, and service laterals located in the two lower water distribution system areas of the North Rim complex (EDR area & Lodge area). Approximately 22,000 linear feet of water mains and service laterals will be replaced during Phase II construction.

Project will be constructed under a single prime contract.

Type of Procurement: A negotiated, firm-fixed price contract will be awarded requiring submission of both a technical and a price proposal.

Technical factors will be stated in the Request for Proposal in Section M.

Estimated Price Range: $5M - $10M

All responsible sources may submit an offer which, if submitted in a timely manner, will be considered.
