Update: July 25, 2025


On July 7, 2025, the South Granville Water and Sewer Authority publicly advertised for sealed bids for the Water Treatment Plant Filter Media Replacement Project. The initial bid opening was held on July 23, 2025.


SGWASA listed the bid opportunity on Beacon Bid, a national procurement platform, and simultaneously published the opportunity on the SGWASA website. In addition to public postings, SGWASA conducted direct outreach to regional vendors and contractors, notifying them of the project and bid timeline.


SGWASA and its consulting engineering firm, Hazen and Sawyer, received inquiries from a total of 14 vendors/suppliers and 13 contractors from across the United States. A pre-bid conference was held to clarify project requirements and respond to questions submitted during the bidding period.


Despite the strong interest, only one sealed bid was received by the original deadline of July 23, 2025. In accordance with SGWASA's procurement policy, a minimum of three bids is required in order to formally open and evaluate proposals. As this threshold was not met, the submitted bid was not opened, and the project must be re-advertised.


SGWASA will now receive and open sealed bids at:


2:00 p.m. on August 5, 2025

Butner Town Hall – Camp Butner Meeting Room

415 Central Avenue, Butner, NC 27509


SGWASA and Hazen will continue to engage with interested firms and respond to inquiries prior to the new bid opening date. The Authority remains committed to ensuring a transparent, competitive process and to advancing this essential water treatment project in a timely and efficient manner.


Butner, NC. July 23, 2025 - SGWASA joined the engineering consultant team from Hazen and Sawyer for the Water Treatment Plant Filter media Replacement Project Bid Opening at 2:00 PM.


As only one bid was received by the submission deadline, and per procurement requirements mandating a minimum of three bids, the formal opening was paused. An addendum will soon be released.


A revised bid opening date is currently being coordinated and will be announced soon. View project details at sgwasa.org/bids for more information.
