Be sure and review all three componets of my Blog for regular Stimulus News up-dates.

No.1 “What Stimulus Projects are Pump and Shovel Ready” will include Construction Bid Awards, Construction Bid Invitations and Ground Breaking Announcements.

No. 2 “Tools to Follow the Money” will lead you through Grant Money Distribution right down to giving you the capacity to locate every City and County Purchasing Department office in the United States. I was reminded by one of our readers there is more to the Water and Wastewater Industry than Bricks and Mortar. There is Clean Water Testing and Research. Added to this section are several Labratory and Research Department Locators.

No. 3 “Stimulus Funds for Pumps & Systems Who’s Asking and Who’s Getting?”. This section is a growing list of Local Agencies receiving ARRA Funds for projects that will have to be put out for Bid. Go to City, County or State Agency Locators in the “Tools to Follow the Money” section in order to locate an appropriate Contracting or Purchasing Office.

Remember: 02/17/10 is the EPA Deadline for Construction to begin or Contracts signed on all Clean and Drinking Water Projects included in its $6 Billion States Revolving Fund. Details are found on page 11 of this 49 page EPA Memorandum:  EPA Memo

Construction Stimulus Contract Awards and Notice of Up-Coming Bid Invitations – Note, This is not a complete list, and I suggest you use one of many reputable Construction Email Alert Services for more complete and daily notices of “Invitation to Bid” in the States of your interest.

Each State awards Stimulus Funds to its Cities and Counties for qualifying Projects. I am regularly posting City, County and State Stimulus awards via local News. I find local News Media is fast to report any Federal Funds coming in to their area of news coverage.

Note! All EPA Clean and Drinking Water, State Revolving Stimulus Funds Awarded must have Construction Projects Started or Contacts Signed by the EPA Deadline of February 17, 2010. This deadline can be found on page 11 of this 49 page EPA Memorandum: EPA Memo
