No. 690290 in conjunction with the 2005 Capital Improvement Program for the Division of Water. In accordance with the provisions of Chapter 329.11, of the Columbus City Codes 1959, Request For Statement of Qualifications for ten (10) projects were received and reviewed from thirty-nine (39) engineering firms. The following three (3) firms were selected as finalists for this project and they submitted technical proposals by the June 18, 2004 deadline:
