Lead and Asbestos Removal St Marys Recreation Center Swimming Pool Facility

The City of St. Marys Public Works Department has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for lead and asbestos removal at the St. Marys Recreation Center Swimming Pool Facility located at 900 Margaret Street in St. Marys, Georgia. The procurement seeks a qualified contractor to supply all necessary materials, equipment, and labor to remove, contain, transport, and dispose of lead and asbestos from the facility in preparation for future demolition. Bidders must submit one original and two copies of bid documents in a sealed envelope by the due date of June 12, 2025, at 2:00 p.m., with no fax or email submissions accepted. A Bid Bond of at least 5% of the total contract amount is required, and contractors must possess all necessary licenses and certifications to perform the specialized environmental remediation work. The City reserves the right to select the most responsive and responsible contractor, potentially awarding portions of the project to multiple contractors, and may reject any or all bids submitted. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on contractor qualifications, compliance with regulatory requirements, and the ability to complete the project safely and efficiently.

The solicitation emphasizes compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, indicating a commitment to providing disadvantaged business enterprises (DBEs) full opportunity to submit bids without discrimination. While no specific set-aside percentages are mentioned, the procurement appears to encourage participation from diverse contractors. The project will be funded through the City of St. Marys, though specific budget details or estimated contract value are not explicitly stated in the available documentation. Contractors will be required to adhere to all local, state, and federal regulations governing environmental remediation, including proper handling and disposal of hazardous materials. The project is time-sensitive, with work expected to be completed in June 2025, suggesting a relatively short project timeline. Potential bidders should be prepared to demonstrate extensive experience in lead and asbestos removal, environmental compliance, and facility preparation for demolition. Interested contractors should carefully review all bid documents and ensure they meet the comprehensive technical and regulatory requirements for this specialized environmental remediation project.
