The work will be on the wastewater collection system infrastructure throughout SAWS’ service area. All work orders that will be issued under this contract are unspecified at the time of bidding. As this is a work order contract, SAWS does not guarantee, warrant or represent that it will utilize the amount of quantities estimated in the Bid Proposal or that each bid item in this contract will be used on the assigned work orders. The quantities in the Bid Proposal are estimations only. Prior to beginning any work, the Contractor shall carefully plan in close coordination with SAWS to fully develop procedures and standards for the work that will be performed.
