Description
The Rock River Water Reclamation District (RRWRD) solicited bids for a residential sanitary‑sewer service‑cleanout program covering roughly 90 service points in its Rockford service area. The work consists of installing 6‑inch cleanouts, performing 4‑inch PVC sleeve replacements inside existing 6‑inch vitrified‑clay pipes, and limited exploratory excavations where service points are mis‑located. All work is to be completed by October 30 2020, with a $300 per‑day liquidated‑damages penalty for late completion. Bids were submitted in a lump‑sum format per address; the lowest bid was approximately $488 k. The contract requires extensive compliance (prevailing‑wage, OSHA, ADA, steel‑product, CCDD, etc.) and robust insurance/bonding (general liability $1 M, umbrella $2 M, 100 % performance bond). The award was made to Northern Illinois Service Company, a regional plumbing contractor based in Rockford.
