Site work for a water / sewer project in Bellingham, Massachusetts. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Question Deadline 09/18/2025 Questions received less than seven working days prior to the date for opening of Bids may not be answered. The Project includes the following Work: Construction, development, and performance testing of three 16" x 12" gravel packed replacement wells, submersible pumps, motors, VFDs, pitless adapters, level transducers, site piping, maintenance hydrants, hydrant assembly, site valves, interior piping modifications, pressure transducer/transmitter, decommissioning of existing wells, appurtenances, and associated electrical and instrumentation work. The project includes construction of three entirely new replacement wells (11.1-R, 11.2-R, and 11.3-R), and the replacement of equipment in one existing well (11.5). The Contractor will be asked to complete all necessary work required to start-up and commission the new wells (including MassDEP approval to pump to the distribution system) within 300 calendar days. Meeting this substantial completion date may require existing electrical equipment (including the existing VFDs) to remain in service due to lead times of proposed equipment. Between the dates of June 15, 2026, and September 30, 2026, the downtime of the existing well must be minimized to the greatest extent possible. Proposed improvement to the pumping system and controls that are not necessary for start-up and commissioning of the new pumps and that require a longer duration shutdown should be planned for no sooner than October 1, 2026. The time for final completion of the contract is 330 calendar days.
