Rationale: This is to provide on-call plumbing services to replace or permanently abandon deficient drinking water outlets as identified by the “Lead Testing in School Drinking Water” legislation 10-NYCRR Subpart 67-4, and mandating that schools across the state test drinking water for lead contamination.

Bids for this work were duly solicited in compliance with Municipal Law 103 and opened on September 6, 2017. Lombardo was the sole bidder. However, Lombardo’s prices (identical to a similar contract already awarded by the City) and their history with the district (a known, reliable entity) and the need for speed necessitate the award of this contract at this time.

Lombardo will be working closely with E&R Engineering and the engineers in the Facilities Dept to replace or permanently abandon the outlets identified as “actionable” under the above mentioned sampling and testing program.

This work is being done under capital funds and is fully aidable by the SED.
