Crew to break ground on new SAD 46 school
Bangor Daily News, November 6, 2007

(excerpt) SAD 46 directors have recommended a Benton firm be hired to do the groundwork for the new kindergarten through eighth grade elementary school.

The recommendation to hire Nitram Excavation and General Contractor Inc. was forwarded Monday to the state Bureau of General Services, the agency that has oversight of new school projects.

The Benton firm bid $4,338,539, the lowest of four bids, to do the groundwork with the exception of razing the building on the property, according to SAD 46 Superintendent Kevin Jordan. The other bids ranged from $4.6 million to $5.4 million, he said Monday.
