The Greenville Zoo maintains an impoundment onsite which serves as the exhibit for flamingos. Due to the location of the Flamingo Pond, off-site runoff (including sediment laden runoff) has impacted the pond. The City of Greenville is requesting bids from qualified contractors to conduct dredging at the Greenville Zoo Flamingo Pond to remove the sediment and restore the pond volume. The project will be administered and managed by the City of Greenville. The contractor chosen to complete the work will be responsible for furnishing all labor, equipment, and materials needed to complete the job. It is the contractor’s responsibility to visit the site and review all plans. It is also the contractor’s responsibility to ensure all material used for application and all equipment used for application meet City requirements. The contractor shall complete the services outlined in eleven (11) days within the same time frame of the Zoo winter shut down from February 2, 2025, to February 14, 2025. The proposed scope of work includes dredging the pond, drying the sediment, hauling the sediment to the designated disposal site, and restoring the area disturbed by the dredging activity in accordance with the procedures below.
