SCOPE OF WORK
INTRODUCTION
The City of Opa-Locka (City) owns, operates and maintains a water distribution system, a
wastewater collection & transmission system and a stormwater management system within its
service area. Cairo Lane, NW 127th Street and Alexandria Drive are within an industrial area
located in the south west portion of the City, south of NW 135th Street and east of the Douglas/Le
Jeune Road Connector. The project area was once part of a 50-acre lake fill known as Milton's
Dump that operated from 1966 to 1981.
In 2015, the City issued the Request for Proposal (RFP) No: 15-2904100 to conduct
improvements to the water, wastewater, stormwater systems and roadway reconstruction at Cairo
Lane, NW 127th Street and sections of Alexandria Drive. The project seeks to address the non-
existing drainage system in the area and provide for improved roadway conditions.
The project was procured as a Design -Build project and the contract was awarded to Intercounty
Engineering Inc. on May 13, 2015. Based on the design plans provide by the City on July 1, 2020,
the project included the following:
Cairo Lane, from the NW 127th Street Canal to NW 135th Street:
• Installation of a new 3-Inch HDPE force main (FM), thirty-four (34) service connections to
the property line for the connection of privately owned grinder pump stations and
interconnection with an existing force main along NW 135th Street. Grinder pumps stations
shall be designed and installed by the property owners
• Installation of new drainage system, including twenty (20) catch basins, trunk drainage
pipping, nutrient removal treatment system at the south end of Cairo Lane and outfall to
discharge to the 127th street canal
• Installation of a new section of 12-Inch PVC water main
