1. The Government of the Republic of Moldova has received financing from the World Bank toward the cost of the Moldova Water Security and Sanitation Project (MWSSP), and intends to apply part of the proceeds toward payments under the Contract for Construction of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and the Sewerage Infrastructure in the Municipality of Soroca

National Office for Regional and Local Development / MWSSP Implementation Unit now invites sealed Bids from eligible Bidders for Plant Design, Supply, Installation, Testing and Commissioning for Construction of the Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Sewerage Infrastructure in the Municipality of Soroca. The town of Soroca is the administrative centre of the Soroca Municipality, located on the right bank of the Dniester River, along the border with Ukraine, 160 km north of the capital Chisinau. The wastewater network is divided into 4 main catchments, connected to the Central wastewater pumping station (CPS). Two other wastewater pumping stations are located respectively on the northside (North Pumping Station, NPS) and on the southside of the city (South Pumping Station, SPS) with small catchment areas to pump the wastewater to the main network. At present, the untreated wastewater is discharged into the Dniester River via two outfalls located adjacent to the Central Pumping Station and the South Pumping Station. The overall objective of this project is to improve environment conditions in the Municipality and reduce pollution emission to the Dniester River and ensure full compliance with the relevant national and European legislation. The works envisaged under this Contract include the following:

• all necessary surveys (wastewater flow and quality measuring campaign, geodetic and geo-technical surveys, etc.) as required for the preparation of detailed engineering design for physical, biological and advanced (removal of nutrients and pathogens) treatment facilities;
• preparation of technical documentation as required by legislation of the Republic of Moldova for construction and technical acceptance of the works;
• construction, supply and installation of equipment, pre-commissioning, testing and commissioning of the WWTP;
• flood protection works at the WWTP site;
• internal roads within the WWTP with connection to the public road;

• construction, supply, installation, pre-commissiong, testing and commissioning of pressure sewer mains from the Central Pumping Station to the WWTP and from the South Pumping Station to the gravity main sewer in the town.

The works shall be suitable for continuous operation during the designed lifetime, achieving full compliance with the guaranteed functional requirements at all times.

The Works will be implemented under a single contract based on the World Bank’s Standard Procurement Documents for Plant Design, Supply and Installation, dated February 2025.
