The project is funded through Community Development Block Grant resources and carries MBE/WBE participation goals with required solicitation documentation.

The entire project will be awarded to a single contractor. Addendum No. 1 increased quantities for 6-inch MJ Tees, revised asphalt paving to current PennDOT Publication 408 standards, and removed the Stop Call Before You Dig submission requirement.
