The City of Newburyport, Massachusetts is issuing an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the installation of three irrigation wells and pump systems. The project involves drilling three 8-inch, 500-foot bedrock irrigation wells and installing corresponding pump systems capable of producing 50 GPM at 75 PSI. The well locations are at two to three of four specified parks within the city. Bids are due by 1:00 PM on Thursday, August 5, 2021, and the work is anticipated to take one to two weeks to substantially complete. The contract will be effective upon the issuance of a Notice to Proceed. The IFB outlines applicable Massachusetts public works laws and regulations, including prevailing wage requirements and the need for a 50% payment bond if awarded the contract. The City reserves the right to waive informalities and accept or reject any or all bids.

This project is part of the Commonwealth's goals for equal opportunity, non-discrimination, and affirmative action programs. There are no filed sub-bids for this project, and the City has not indicated any incumbent vendors or current contractors.
