Another Lewis & Clark Water Pipeline Construction Contract Awarded

S.J. Louis Construction of Rockville, Minn., has been awarded a $10,785,600 contract for construction of Minnesota – Segment 4 of the Lewis & Clark Water Pipeline. The Minnesota – Segment 4 is a 15-mile section of pipe between the Worthington and Lincoln Pipestone RWS connection near Adrian.
“Along with a meter building and reservoir that we will be bidding in the coming months, this pipeline will allow Worthington to receive long-awaited water from Lewis & Clark by the end of 2018,” Lewis & Clark Executive Director Troy Larson said.
S.J. Louis Construction’s winning bid is less than the $12,997,100 originally budgeted for this work, which, according to Larson, will help the project stay on budget.
“We were very pleased to have yet another project where the low bid was well under budget because this impacts our federal funding ceiling,” Larson said. “All of us at Lewis & Clark, including our engineers, are working very hard to ensure construction of the entire system does not exceed our federal funding ceiling, so each project that comes in under budget gets us closer to that goal.”
