Nob Hill Wastewater Treatment Plant Disinfection Improvements

The Town of Newburgh in Orange County, New York, is seeking bids for the Nob Hill Wastewater Treatment Plant Disinfection Improvements project, a critical infrastructure enhancement initiative. The procurement involves two separate construction contracts: General Construction (GC-1) and Electrical Construction (EC-1), with specific focus on installing recirculating media filters, a UV disinfection system, and constructing a new control building at an existing wastewater treatment facility. Bidders must submit sealed proposals by Tuesday, October 16, 2025, at 11:00 AM to the Newburgh Town Hall, with a mandatory pre-bid conference scheduled for Tuesday, September 16, 2025, at 10:00 AM at Peach Terrace in Newburgh. Each bid must include a bid guarantee of at least 5% of the total bid amount, and bidders are prohibited from withdrawing their proposals within 45 days of the bid opening. Bidding documents can be obtained from MHE Engineering, D.P.C. for a non-refundable fee of $50.00, with digital copies available through a secured electronic link.

The Town of Newburgh demonstrates a commitment to equal opportunity, ensuring that minority business enterprises (MBEs) are afforded full opportunity to participate in the bidding process without discrimination. While specific set-aside percentages are not explicitly detailed, the procurement appears open to qualified contractors capable of meeting the technical and infrastructural requirements of the wastewater treatment plant improvements. The project involves upgrading an existing treatment facility, which suggests potential integration challenges with current systems and technologies. The owner reserves the right to reject any or all bids and will be exempt from sales and compensating use taxes on materials supplied under the contract. Although a precise budget range is not specified in the available documentation, the complexity of the project—involving media filters, UV disinfection, and a new control building—indicates a substantial capital investment in municipal infrastructure modernization.
