Description
The U.S. Air Force is soliciting a contractor to replace and restore a lift station at Building 6954 on Battle Creek Air National Guard Base, Michigan. The work includes complete demolition of the existing lift station, pumps, pit piping, and utility connections, installation of two new sub‑mersible grinder pumps, a new control panel, associated electrical work, and restoration of the surrounding turf. The contractor must provide all labor, equipment, materials, and quality‑control measures, obtain required state permits, and comply with a 365‑day performance period. No temporary bypass pumping is required, and the existing 4‑inch discharge piping will be replaced. The project also requires testing, commissioning, and a one‑time turf reseeding after construction.

• Restore and reseed disturbed turf using standard low‑cost seed mix; no long‑term maintenance required
