This Pre-Solicitation Notice is being issued by the United States Army Corps of Engineers - Chicago District to inform interested/potential contractors of the District's imminent issue of an Invitation for Bid Package for its construction project entitled, "Schiller Park Detention Pond and Storm Sewer Installation - Section 219, Schiller Park, IL. (USACE Acquisition)."

PROJECT INFORMATION:

Under the contract, the contractor will provide service to install a detention pond and storm sewers at two locations, on and around Seymour Avenue and Soreng Avenue. 

At the first location, approximately 1200 linear feet of storm sewer and six manholes is planned from the intersection of Scott Street and Seymour Avenue, eastward through Shelton Field, to the intersection of Soreng Avenue and 25th Avenue where it would connect with the existing storm sewer line. Sewer installation would also occur from the intersection of Soreng Avenue and Emerson Drive southward to Garden Court.  Additionally, a vacant parcel of land owned by the Village of Schiller Park would be used to create an approximately 1.5-million-gallon storm water detention pond connected to this new storm sewer installation.

At the second location, the existing storm sewer on Seymour Avenue would be extended northward to the 4000 and 4100 blocks of Wesley Terrace, Grace Street, Kolze Avenue, and Gremley Terrace to expand the capacity of the storm sewer system and prevent flooding in this area. This extension would consist of approximately 2500 linear feet of 24-inch pipe for the main line, 380 linear feet of 12-inch pipe for the drainage laterals, 16 manholes, and 19 catch basins.
