Yichang publishes RMB72 million wastewater-network EPC plan including valves and monitoring

Yichang’s public procurement portal published an EPC tender plan on 6 November for an integrated wastewater network project in the high-tech zone’s new urban centre. Estimated investment is RMB72 million, funded by the public budget, with tendering expected in November 2026.

The plan covers the Huayan wastewater treatment plant’s catchment. It lists 1,517 metres of new sewer on Tumen First Road, 4,278 metres of branch-network expansion or renewal on Huayan First Road, 3,137 metres along the Bailin River, and 1,200 metres of sewer and road-restoration work in the citrus-farm area.

A further package addresses 3,190 pipe defects and 28 incorrect or mixed connections, including seven kilometres of connection remediation and twelve kilometres of damaged-pipe renewal. Ancillary works include inspection chambers, valves, fittings and monitoring facilities. Valve sizes, models and quantities are not specified.

The EPC scope extends through design, procurement, construction, acceptance, handover and warranty obligations. The portal identifies this as preliminary planning information and makes the eventual tender documents authoritative. The investment estimate is a whole-project figure, not a valve purchasing budget.
