Site work for a water / sewer project in Rockland, Wisconsin. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

All potential bidders must be certified by DOA prior to submitting bids on state construction projects over $100,000. All bids received from contractors who are not certified will be rejected. This project is being let using the single prime bidding and contracting process. DFD will publicly bid the applicable mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection (MEP) divisions of work first. Within 5 days of the MEP bid opening, DFD will identify a lowest, qualified, responsible, certified bidder in each applicable MEP division of work. These successful MEP bids must be included in all general prime contractor bids received. No later than 5 days after DFD identifies the successful MEP bids, DFD will publicly open general prime contractor bids. General prime contractor bids that do not include the successful MEP bids will be rejected. The state will enter into a single contract with the lowest, qualified, responsible, certified general prime contractor and this general prime contractor will enter into subcontracts with the successful MEP bidders. If a project does not include any mechanical, electrical, plumbing, or fire protection divisions of work, DFD will bid one bid package for all work to general prime contractors. In general, the work consists of: the replacement of two radial dam gates that are nearing the end of their useful life on this 1960's dam. Work includes demolition and removal of the existing gates from the site and installation of new dual leaf vertical lift dam gates. Modifications to existing concrete piers include partial demolition throughout the piers' height and adding supplementary reinforcement at the location of the embedded gate frame, which will be attached to the existing concrete sill with post installed anchors. Upgrading these gates will allow for easier and safer gate operation by DNR staff, a higher level of precision for water level control, and improved vegetation and wildlife habitat management in Collins Marsh. Base Bid will be received for: A single lump sum bid for All Work. Bid Guarantee in the amount of 10% of the Bid must accompany each bid submitted.
