Fair Haven Village Green Stormwater Implementation

The South Lake CWSP has issued a contract opportunity for the construction of an underground stormwater infiltration system in the Town Park of Fair Haven, Vermont. The project involves installing an underground treatment tank system capable of treating 17,000 cubic feet of water from a total water quality volume of 36,400 cubic feet, originating from an urban drainage area of nearly 26 acres, with a significant portion being impervious surfaces like roads, driveways, and rooftops that currently drain into the Poultney River via the Castleton River. The design, finalized by Fitzgerald Environmental Associates, emphasizes three primary activities: boring or laying new piping under Park Street from an existing storm drain, installing a swirl separator for pretreatment, and excavating, backfilling with washed stone, and installing R-Tanks within the park. The project is managed by the Rutland Regional Planning Commission and is posted under solicitation number 64460, with a response deadline of May 20, 2025. The contract value is estimated between $500,000 and $1,500,000. Interested contractors can contact Hilary Solomon via email or phone for further details and are encouraged to review the bid through the Vermont Business Registry link. The project aims to improve stormwater management in the area, reducing runoff into local waterways and enhancing urban drainage infrastructure.
