The City of Rolling Fork, Mississippi, is seeking sealed bids for a Pump Station Rehabilitation project (MDEQ Project No. 581-2-CW-5.5, Project No. 137-22) located in Sharkey County. The procurement is for a comprehensive pump station rehabilitation to be completed as a lump sum item, with bids due on January 7, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. local time at Rolling Fork City Hall, 210 Locust Street. Bid documents are available from Gardner Engineering, P.A. in Indianola, MS, at a cost of $100.00 (non-refundable), and all bidders must submit bid security. The project requires a Certificate of Responsibility license for bids exceeding $50,000, and prospective contractors must demonstrate compliance with various federal regulations including the Anti-Kickback Act, Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, and Executive Order No. 11246. Bidders will need to thoroughly review the project specifications and ensure they can meet all technical and regulatory requirements for the pump station rehabilitation.

The project is funded through Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds and specifically encourages participation from minority and women's business enterprises (MBE/WBE) as prime contractors or subcontractors. While no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, the procurement emphasizes opportunities for diverse business participation. Bidders must be prepared to integrate with existing infrastructure and comply with Uniform Guidance provisions and federal requirements. Though the exact project budget is not explicitly stated, the requirement for a Certificate of Responsibility license for bids over $50,000 suggests the project has a substantial financial scope. The City of Rolling Fork appears to be seeking qualified contractors with demonstrated experience in municipal infrastructure rehabilitation, particularly in pump station systems, with a strong emphasis on meeting federal funding compliance and supporting local and minority business engagement.
