What this bid is

The Town of Benson wants written lump-sum proposals for lead service line inventory work. The job is to find out what pipe material is used on about 253 water service lines where the material is unknown. The method named is soft-dig vacuum excavation or mechanical potholing, so the work is digging to expose each line.

The notice says the project is monitored by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality and funded through the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. It also says Davis-Bacon prevailing wage tracking and state and federal regulatory guidelines apply, so labour has to be priced at the published rates and certified payroll is expected. The notice asks for qualified, licensed utility and underground contractors. Whether any firm is qualified is for the Town to decide.

Proposals close 20 November 2026 at 10:00 AM Eastern. Responses go through the North Carolina electronic Vendor Portal, which requires a registered vendor account. Solicitation number 501-05-2026.
