Here's the ad for site work for the new school. We found it at Maine Public Notices. It also appeared in the Bangor Daily News on Monday, September 17.

Here's the job description:

There will be a walk-through on October 4 and bids will be opened on October 11.

Also at Maine Public Notices we found an ad for a "Qualifications Commissioning Agent." Here's the meat of that ad:

SAD #46 is seeking modified commissioning agent services from an independent, certified third-party to ensure that mechanical and electrical systems are complete and functioning properly upon occupancy, and that the Owner's staff has adequate system documentation and training. The Commissioning Agent may neither be an employee, associate, or partner of the architect, engineer or general contractor, nor be a part of the design team or general contractor's team.

Applicants seem to be screened through the Architect's office.
