The Town of Lyons, Colorado, located in Boulder County, is seeking a consultant through a Request for Proposals (RFP) to design comprehensive upgrades for its Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF). The project, identified as 25-WASTEWATER-01, requires a qualified engineering consultant to prepare detailed design drawings, specifications, cost estimates, permitting documents, and construction administration for multiple facility improvements. Specific upgrade requirements include sludge dewatering system replacements, blower system modifications, UV system modernization, non-potable water piping design, flow split structure improvements, odor control system repairs, and centrate return line realignment. Proposals are due on July 16, 2025, by 2:00 PM, with a pre-proposal conference and site visit scheduled for June 12, 2025, at 11:00 AM. The project evaluation will focus on company qualifications, recent project experience, approach to scope of work, project control, and proposed fees, with an anticipated project timeline from August 1, 2025, to December 31, 2026. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types were explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The project will potentially be funded through various sources, including the Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund (WPCRF) and may involve Buy America (BABA) funding requirements for construction. While no incumbent vendors were identified, the town's current wastewater plant operating contractor will serve as the commissioning agent. The 2024 Wastewater Treatment Facility Master Plan estimated total improvement costs at approximately $18.5 million, with potential funding sources including Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funds, State Revolving Fund low-interest loans, USDA Rural Development grants, and Department of Local Affairs grants. The facility currently serves a population of 2,145 and is projected to grow to 2,702 by the end of the planning period, with the selected consultant expected to design upgrades that can accommodate future growth and meet evolving environmental regulations.
