SAK Construction LLC began work on a new $17.3 million contract to install 115,000 linear ft of 8- to 24-in. cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) in a dozen residential neighborhoods in the southwestern section of the city of Baltimore. The Atlantic Div. office of SAK is located in Arbutus, Md., and will oversee the project.
According to Bob Stier, Atlantic Div. general manager, the project also requires SAK to rehabilitate 529 manholes and repair more than 2,100 house connections, using excavation, grouting and CIPP methods. The assignment, part of a comprehensive plan the city of Baltimore is implementing to improve its wastewater system, is scheduled for completion in April 2016. SAK is concurrently working on a separate $18.8 million wastewater rehabilitation project in the Union Square area of Baltimore, scheduled for completion in November 2015.
SAK’s 7.5-acre Atlantic Div. office and campus is located one mile from the jobsite. Minority and women-owned subcontractors vetted by SAK will partner with it to execute more than 30% of the project.
