Central Oregon Community College, in Bend, desires to prequalify prime contractors for the construction of an approximately 46,000-square-foot science building.

The new building will include: five biology labs, including specialized spaces for anatomy and physiology, botany, microbiology and general biology; two chemistry labs, allowing for innovative work in organic, inorganic and general chemistry; two physical science labs to support physics, engineering, general physical science and geology; small conference rooms; lab prep and support space; informal teaching and learning spaces on the first and second floors; an herbarium; a science faculty office; and three large classrooms.

Bid documents are anticipated to be ready in January 2011, and the contractor will start work in February. The project will be completed by August 2012.

The project is estimated to be between $16 million and $17.5 million, with funding provided by a 2009 voter-approved bond measure.
