Maple Alley Sanitary Sewer Upgrades - Phase 1

The 2026 Storm Sewer Lining Project involves approximately 900 linear feet of cured-in-place pipe lining for selected storm sewers within West Chester Borough, Chester County, Pennsylvania. The solicitation, issued under contract number WCB-2026-MASS1 and posted on July 21, 2026, with a response deadline of August 11, 2026, is managed by the Chester County agency through the PennBid™ electronic portal, and paper submissions are not permitted. The work scope includes excavation, pipe lining, reinstatement of disturbed areas, and coordination with existing utilities, adhering to technical standards such as NFPA 70, ANSI A13.1, OSHA regulations, and ASTM material specifications. The project requires full compliance with local and state codes, including prevailing wage rates and non-discrimination policies, and mandates the presence of a continually on-site, English-speaking superintendent. The contract prohibits subcontracting or assignment without prior written consent from the Owner and enforces liquidated damages of $500 per day for delays in completion. All materials must be stored on-site in original packaging and protected from weather, damage, and theft, with permanent, legible markings for underground lines and electrical systems using specified vinyl, metal, and adhesive labels consistent with ANSI and NFPA standards. The bidding process follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach, where award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder who meets all compliance and technical requirements. Bidders must submit electronically through the PennBid™ portal, including the Form of Bid, General and Special Conditions, Construction Specifications, Contract Bond, Statement of Surety Company, and List of Contract Drawings, along with signed acknowledgments of all addenda. No specific contract value is available due to incomplete pricing data, as line items contain placeholders and no unit or extended prices are populated. Payment will be processed via AIA G702 and G703 forms submitted on a 30-day billing cycle, certified by Remington & Vernick Engineers, who also serve in the role of Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative. All bidders must furnish a Non-Collusion Affidavit, Contractor Responsibility Certification, and Certificate of Bidder Showing Ability to Perform, with disclosures required for any prior fines, debarments, tax delinquencies, or ownership disclosures exceeding 10% interest. Insurance must be maintained throughout contract performance with proof submitted prior to work
