BASA awards $250K bid for improvements
BUTLER TWP — The Butler Area Sewer Authority will spend $252,000 to make much-needed improvements at a pump station in the Meridian section of the township.
Authority board members at their Tuesday morning meeting voted to accept the recommendation of their engineering firm, Herbert, Rowland & Grubic, to award the bid for improvements to the Rock Lick pump station to Utilities Contracting of Youngstown, Ohio.
Utilities Contracting was the lowest bidder for the project, which will see excavating, pipe replacement, and new components on various equipment, said Duane McKee, authority executive director.
He said the pump station, which is in the Cupps Road area, also will need a new force main within five years.
