Site work and renovation of a civil project in Henderson, Kentucky. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a water / sewer project; and for site work for a water / sewer project.

The Henderson Water Utility is seeking submittals of Statements of Qualifications from qualified firms to provide design services for Sewer Pump Station Improvements at four locations. Inquiries should be directed to Tom Williams, HWU's consultant on this project, 270.823.2573, or at williams.tom42420@gmail.com. The Henderson Water Utility (HWU) is requesting Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from qualified firms licensed in the Commonwealth of Kentucky to provide services for the design of modifications to four sewer pump stations for the Utility. HWU currently has 55 sewer pump stations. The stations listed below require various upgrades and modifications, to modernize them, and make them safer and easier to operate. In some cases, it may be possible to eliminate a station by constructing a gravity sewer, and this study should thoroughly examine that option in each such case. Services provided for the projects may include the following, as applicable: o Project kickoff meeting with HWU for proper identification of project scope and alignment of expectations. o Consultant will perform a comprehensive inspection of each pump station for compliance with the "Recommended Standards for Wastewater Facilities, 2014 Edition, A Report of the Wastewater Committee of the Great Lakes - Upper Mississippi River Board of State and Provincial Health and Environment Managers", 2014, commonly referred to as the 10-State Standards, and HWU's own Technical Manual, "Requirements and Specifications for Wastewater and Pump Station Facilities", dated 18 June 2018. o Prepare preliminary design report/memo assessing the existing facilities and presenting design alternatives to address maintenance and safety concerns. o Services to be provided by the consultant may include flow monitoring, and surveying. Specify if these services are to be provided in-house, or by subcontract. If specific project plans are included in the work scope at a future date, the following items may be included (some items, such as bidding and award services, may be performed by HWU): o Prepare plans and specifications, including design review meetings at 50 percent and 90 percent plans completion. o Prepare and update project cost estimates at preliminary design report, 50, and 100 percent milestones, including recommendations for contingency. o Provide all sub-consultant services necessary including structural, electrical and/or mechanical engineering. o Obtain plans and specification approval from the Division of Water and any other necessary approvals. o Provide Bidding & Award and Construction-Related Engineering Services. o Prepare As-Built drawings and State Certification upon final completion of the project. o Provide warranty inspection 11 months after project completion. Response should be both thorough and concise, detailing experience, personnel, and references relevant design and implementation of cost-of-service studies in similar-sized utilities.
