The state and local contract opportunity is a sealed bid procurement by the Eureka Water Association (EWA) located in Courtland, Mississippi, within Bolivar County, for a comprehensive Treatment Train Replacement project at their water treatment plant. The project involves removing existing infrastructure, including an aerator, collector tank, gravity filter, and clearwell, and constructing new components: a 300 gpm aerator, collector tank, gravity filter, and a 20,000-gallon clearwell, along with replacing media in an existing filter. Bidders must possess a current Certificate of Responsibility from the Mississippi Board of Public Contractors and will be evaluated based on being the lowest and best bidder deemed most favorable by EWA. The bid documents can be obtained from Mendrop Engineering Resources, LLC for a non-refundable fee of $150.00 per set, with electronic copies available at no charge. The procurement has a tight timeline of 4 consecutive calendar days, with bids due on April 15, 2025, and bidders required to hold their bid for 60 calendar days after the bid closing time. No pre-bid conference is scheduled, and the bidding process is subject to Mississippi state code.

The contract opportunity does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must be qualified under Mississippi law and can examine contract documents at multiple locations, including the EWA office and Mendrop Engineering Resources, LLC offices in Ridgeland and Batesville, Mississippi. While no specific award value or budget range is explicitly stated in the documentation, the comprehensive nature of the treatment plant infrastructure replacement suggests a significant capital investment. The Eureka Water Association reserves the right to reject all bids, indicating flexibility in the procurement process. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing technology integration requirements. Potential bidders will need to carefully review the full bid documentation to understand the complete scope of work, technical specifications, and compliance requirements for this water treatment plant infrastructure replacement project.
