Lafayette County, Mississippi is soliciting sealed bids for the Yocona Ridge Storm Drain Project, which involves comprehensive storm drain infrastructure rehabilitation in the Yocona Ridge Subdivision located in Oxford. The procurement focuses on cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining for approximately 410 linear feet of storm drainage infrastructure, with pipe diameters ranging from 18 to 54 inches constructed of high-density polyethylene. Contractors must possess extensive qualifications, including a minimum of 300,000 feet of previously installed glass fiber reinforced UV light cured CIPP over at least 10 years, with additional requirements for key personnel such as a project manager with five years of CIPP project management experience and a superintendent with five years of on-site CIPP supervision. The bid submission deadline is January 12, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., with bids to be received at the Lafayette County Chancery Building in Oxford. Electronic bid submissions are permitted through www.lafayettemsbids.com, and contractors must provide their current Certificate of Responsibility Number and Contractor's License Number on bid materials.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly outlined in the procurement documents. The project requires contractors to provide comprehensive installation services, including pipe cleaning, utility conflict management, and inlet modifications, with strict post-installation testing requirements. The CIPP liner must be designed for a minimum 75-year service life with a design safety factor of 2.0, and contractors must warrant all materials and installation for two years from final acceptance. While no specific budget range was provided, the project involves detailed technical specifications for UV light cured pipe rehabilitation, suggesting a potentially significant infrastructure investment. Contractors will be responsible for all labor, materials, and equipment necessary for successful installation, with rigorous submittal requirements including detailed installation procedures, curing schedules, and manufacturing documentation for county review and approval.
