Berlin Lake Mill Creek Recreation Area Oak Pump Station Replacement and Collection System Rehabilitation Project, Berlin Lake, Mahoning County, Ohio

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Pittsburgh District, is carrying out a project to replace the existing Oak Pump Station and to rehabilitate portions of the existing sanitary sewer collection system at the location referenced above.

The major features of the Project generally involves the following:

1. Demolition and proper disposal of the existing Oak Pump Station and installation of a new, pre-packaged commercially available submersible duplex pump station.
   • The existing station has tested positive for lead coatings.
   • The new station, appurtenances, and connections will be constructed in the same location as the existing station.
   • An Ohio Permit-to-Install (PTI) permit is being secured by the Government for the new station and the contractor will have to comply with any requirements of the permit.
2. A gravel driveway for station access and a security fence.
3. Lining and repair rehabilitation work of portions of the existing sanitary sewer collection system. This affects approximately 10 manholes and 2,000 feet of 6 to 8-inch sewers.
   • Asbestos containing materials are presumed to be present in all or portions of the existing pipes.

The work is to be performed entirely on Government property which consists of a public campground and two USACE field offices. The campground is open from mid-May to mid-September, while the two USACE field offices are open year-round.

Project physical construction is proposed to take place in the campground off-season period between September 2023 and May 2024. This would allow the Contractor to perform construction with no interaction with the campground users.

Disposal of construction waste material will be disposed of at commercially permitted facilities licensed to accept waste or recyclable materials as applicable.

Construction work will occur in close proximity to flood mitigation and recreation areas. The existing facilities are currently operated and staffed by Government personnel 24 hours a day 365 days of the year.

Seasonal recreation requires the water tank to be in operation Memorial Day (May 09, 2023) through Labor Day (September 05, 2023). All shutdowns are to be coordinated with the Contracting Officer or designated representative.

The work shall be completed within 365 calendar days after written Notice to Proceed. Per FAR 36.204(f) the magnitude of construction is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000.
