According to Butner-Creedmoor News, The South Granville Water and Sewer Authority has awarded a contract for construction of the first phase of the I-85 Sanitary Sewer Improvement Project — subject to approval by state environmental officials — to Haren Construction for $34.8 million.
CDM Smith, the consulting engineers for the project, reviewed bids received, and Haren Construction Company Inc. of Etowah, Tennessee, was the lowest bidder, with a total bid amount of $34,832,000. That bid includes a base bid amount of $30,625,700 and a total amount of $4,206,300 for a combination of bid alternatives, Butner-Creedmoor News reported.
