Pcws richland WTP inhibitor trench

Paulding County Water System is soliciting bids for the PCWS Richland WTP Inhibitor Trench project, a chemical system upgrade at the Richland Creek Water Treatment Plant located in Dallas, Georgia. The procurement involves implementing orthophosphate addition to the treatment process and addressing complex chemical junction box configurations through strategic infrastructure modifications. Specific project deliverables include extending junction boxes from the chemical building to the static mixer vault, installing new horizontal conduits, and eliminating inefficient vertical piping configurations using hand digging or hydro-excavation techniques. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for December 18, 2024, at 10 AM at the Richland Creek Water Treatment Plant, with attendance limited to three personnel per organization. Sealed bids are due by 10 AM on January 15, 2025, at the Paulding County Purchasing Department, with bidders required to submit a completed Document 00 45 13 Qualification Statement and provide a 5% bid bond or cashier's/certified check. Bids must remain valid for 60 days after opening, during which time the county may award the contract to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder.

While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, bidders must meet specific qualification criteria outlined in the bid documents. Digital bid documents are available for $22 through http://planroom.garverusa.com with the Quest Project Number 9447284. The successful bidder will be required to provide 100% performance and payment bonds. Although a precise project budget is not specified, the comprehensive nature of the chemical system upgrades suggests a significant infrastructure investment. Potential bidders should be prepared to demonstrate technical expertise in water treatment plant infrastructure modifications, chemical system integration, and municipal utility project management. The project appears to be funded through Paulding County's water system infrastructure budget, with the ultimate goal of improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the Richland Creek Water Treatment Plant's chemical processing capabilities.
