REQUEST FOR STATEMENTS OF QUALIFICATIONS

NCSD CIP# 2610000 – Felix C. Davis WWTP – Main Influent

Pump Station PER

PROJECT PURPOSE AND GOAL

The North Charleston Sewer District is seeking to retain a qualified engineering firm to perform a

preliminary engineering report for the Felix C. Davis WWTP Main Influent Pump Station. The goal of this

PER is to review the current state of existing assets within the pump station and identify assets needing

replacement or upgrading.

BACKGROUND

The District is a publicly owned utility created in 1972 by an act of the South Carolina State Legislature,

governed by a Board of Commissioners that provides retail and wholesale wastewater service to

approximately 34,000 customers in the City of North Charleston and nearby communities, with a service

area of approximately 60 square miles.

The Felix C. Davis WWTP – Main Influent Pump Station has neared its design life and is due to be

renovated. The pump station was originally built in 1966 and expanded in 1988 to its current size. Currently

there are 5-120 HP Pentair Fairbanks-Morse pumps installed with a location for a sixth pump. The current

screening technology is pass-through mechanical screens with a ¼” or 6.0mm opening from Headworks

International.

SCOPE OF WORK

The District would like all existing assets within the pump station to be reviewed and evaluated on the basis to

be replaced. Specifically, the pumps and controls along with the screening technology to be evaluated for

upgrading or replacement recommendations. One critical component of the evaluation is the two wet wells that

will need to be assessed. Due to age and location, it is anticipated that significant structural rehabilitation may

be necessary.

The final PER should include design recommendations that take into consideration any necessary structural,

mechanical, and electrical design components.

QUALIFICATIONS

It is the intent of the District not to award this contract to any firm who does not furnish satisfactory evidence

that they have successfully completed projects of this type and magnitude, and that they have enough

capital, equipment, and personnel to enable them to complete the required work successfully within a

reasonable time.

Under the South Carolina Freedom of Information Act ("FOIA"), certain documents an Offeror submits to

the District may be subject to public disclosure. All references are to the South Carolina Code of Laws,

which is available on the internet at: http://www.scstatehouse.gov/code/t30c004.PHP. Offerors are urged

to become familiar with FOIA (Title 30, Chapter 4 of the Code).

In determining whether to release documents, the District will rely on Offerors marking documents as being

either "Confidential" or "Trade Secret". For every document Offeror submits in response to or with regard

to this solicitation, Offeror must separately mark with the word "CONFIDENTIAL" every page, or portion

thereof, that Offeror contends contains information that is exempt from public disclosure because it is a

trade secret as defined in Section 30-4-40(a)(1) of the FOIA. For every document Offeror submits in

response to or with regard to this solicitation, Offeror must separately mark with the words "TRADE

SECRET" every page, or portion thereof, that Offeror contends contains a trade secret as that term is defined

by the Trade Secrets Act. All markings must be conspicuous; use color, bold, underlining, or some other

method in order to conspicuously distinguish the mark from the other text. If a portion of a response is

improperly marked as confidential or trade secret, the District may, in its sole discretion, determine it

nonresponsive. If only portions of a page are protected, do not mark the entire page.
