Sources Sought for Project Labor Agreements (PLAs): 9 Mile Pump Station

The U.S. Corps of Engineers (USACE) Detroit District is conducting market research to solicit comments from the construction community on the potential use of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) for the 9 Mile Pump Station project. The project involves constructing a stormwater pump station in St. Clair Shores, Michigan, with a designed pumping capacity of 600 cubic feet per second. The work will include elements typical of a high-capacity pump station, such as sedimentation and erosion control measures, re-routing of existing utilities, steel pile foundations, and construction of a single-story pumphouse building. The expected period of performance is 18+ months, and the estimated magnitude of construction is between $25,000,000 and $50,000,000. Key aspects of the project include: • Establishment and maintenance of sedimentation and erosion control measures • Re-routing of existing storm, sanitary, electrical, water, natural gas, and communication utilities • Steel pile foundations and structural steel • Connection to existing, active, high-capacity storm sewers • Construction of a single-story, high-bay pumphouse building with brick exterior and various building systems • Connection of the new building to public utilities • Process monitors and controls, backup power generators, and power distribution cabling
