In addition to the water main replacement, the project encompasses pavement resurfacing and repair to restore the roadway surface after pipe installation. The contract, titled "New York Avenue Water Main Replacement," is managed by the Ohio Transportation and Engineering Management organization and is valued between 1 million and 3 million dollars. It was posted on July 12, 2024, with a response deadline of July 30, 2024, and is open to qualified contractors under NAICS code 238110, which pertains to plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning contractors. The project is governed by several compliance and labor agreements, including a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) that emphasizes the use of skilled local labor, cooperation among contractors and unions, and adherence to labor standards to ensure efficient and safe construction.
