The City of Lawrence Indiana Utility Service Board convened to approve several key procurement and contracting actions related to utility infrastructure projects. They approved a change order for a valve replacement and a contract time extension for the Milestone contractor due to delays caused by power line relocations. The board also approved a contract with SLB Pipe Solutions LLC for the Fort Harrison Collection System Capacity Improvements Phase 3 project, valued at approximately $1.7 million, with a completion date set for April 2026. Additionally, a task order was approved with American Structure Point for preliminary design work on a sewer basin removal project, part of an EPA administrative order, with an estimated overall project cost of nearly $42 million.
