The project involves Phase 1 replacement of the Cedar Chase Pump Station in Delaware, encompassing civil‑mechanical demolition, installation of new pumps, piping, controls, electrical upgrades, site restoration, and ancillary infrastructure such as fences and hydrants. Two contractors submitted lump‑sum bids (Eastern States Construction $780,213; Teal Construction $636,636) with an evaluated preference price of $617,537 after applying local‑preference rules. The scope includes mobilization, erosion control, bypass pumping, selective demolition, pump‑station equipment, level transducers, gate valves, service hydrants, wet‑well cleaning, fencing, and electrical improvements. This opportunity is a medium‑size public‑works contract (~$0.6‑$0.8 M) suited for firms with capabilities in pump‑station construction, civil demolition, water‑utility infrastructure, and related electrical work.
• Scope covers full pump‑station replacement (mechanical, civil, electrical).
• Lump‑sum pricing with local‑preference adjustments.
• Two qualified local contractors competed, indicating a competitive procurement environment.
