Notice is hereby given that the City of Covington is seeking qualification statements for professional engineering services for Disaster Recovery CDBG funds and subsequent implementation of Lift Station Panel Elevations. The scope of the Project is to construct platforms at 26 lift stations in Covington to a height 3’ above the base flood elevation per FEMA elevation requirements for critical infrastructure, and to relocate the control panels, emergency generators and related equipment on top of each platform, make necessary changes to prevent I&I into lift station wet well pits during flood conditions, and install emergency generators at scoped lift stations that don’t currently have one if budget allows and if requested by the City.

The complete RFQ is available at www.covla.com, on Central Bidding (www.centralbidding.com), or by contacting Caroline Lobaugh, Grants and Procurement Administrator, by email at [email protected].
