Overview

Summary

The County of DeKalb, GA (the "County"), is requesting Proposals for Design Build Services (DBS) for Scott Candler Water Treatment Plant Demolition and New Clearwells and High Service Pump Station . Proposals are to be submitted via the County's eProcurement Portal via https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/dekalbcountyga PRIOR TO 3:00 pm on Friday, February 13, 2026 .

Background

The original Scott Candler Filter Plant was built in 1942 and was expanded eight times until the County decided to build a new WTP at the site in 2005 taking the original Filter Plant offline. Though much of the infrastructure is no longer in use, the Old Filter Plant is home for critical infrastructure related to storage and distribution of drinking water including a 3 million-gallon (MG) clearwell and transfer pumping system, High service pump stations (HSPS) 1 and 2, and the five ground storage tanks (GST).
