The procurement requires an experienced contractor to demolish and remove the existing alum stormwater treatment system equipment while preserving the existing building structure and maintaining existing water and power connections serving that building; the base bid scope includes complete demolition and removal of all equipment, capping and abandonment of system connections, hauling away of all materials, and obtaining required demolition and right-of-way permits (estimated at $500). Qualified bidders must possess a minimum of five years of documented experience in stormwater treatment system equipment demolition, hold a valid Florida General Contractor license, and employ lead-safe practices throughout all demolition activities. The contractor must complete substantial work within 60 calendar days and achieve final completion within 7 additional calendar days from the Notice to Proceed issued at the pre-construction conference, with mobilization and work commencement required no later than 10 calendar days after notification; liquidated damages of $100 per calendar day apply for delays beyond the specified completion date. A non-mandatory pre-bid meeting and site visit is scheduled for Tuesday, March 17, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. at the project location, with bids due by April 2, 2026. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting all stated requirements, with contractor pricing to remain valid for a minimum of 90 calendar days after bid receipt and a 5 percent retainage held until project acceptance and final completion.

The solicitation documents do not identify any specific set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise preferences, or restrictions limiting bidder eligibility based on business classification. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are referenced in the procurement documentation. The contractor is responsible for providing all materials, labor, and equipment in good working condition and must perform a minimum of 60 percent of the work with their own forces. Required bonding includes a 5 percent bid bond and a recorded Public Construction bond equal to the bid amount, while insurance requirements mandate Commercial General Liability ($1,000,000 per occurrence/$2,000,000 aggregate), Commercial Automotive Liability ($1,000,000 combined limit), Workers' Compensation per Florida statutory requirements, and Pollution Liability ($1,000,000 per claim/$2,000,000 aggregate) for three years post-completion. An asbestos survey conducted on February 13, 2026, confirmed that no regulated asbestos-containing materials meeting NESHAP thresholds were identified at the site, eliminating EPA notification requirements. The specific bid amount or contract value is not disclosed in the solicitation materials; bidders must submit pricing proposals using the provided price proposal form (Exhibit B) with line items for the Alum Station System Removal (lump sum) and Estimated Permit Cost (lump sum).
