I have done several lift stations in the past few years. Here is what I did, and what I was responsible for. Run the power to a sewer contractor supplied control cabinet. Mount the control cabinet. Run 2- 2” conduits from control panel to pit. Run 1- ¾” conduit and 3- #12 wires (blk, wht, grn) from control panel to pit and install an outlet for a sump pump. All other work was completed by the sewer contractor, or lift station representative. I don’t know if the used chico or not, as I was not responsible for that portion of work. In our proposals I state it this way.
1-Lift station power feed XX amps XXX volts. Lift station work as follows:
Mount and install lift station control panel (supplied by others).
Pipe and wire feed from building to control panel disconnect switch.
Mount and install 1- outlet in pit to control sump pump, others to wire to control panel.
Run 2 – 2” conduits from control panel to lift station pit.

All other work pertaining to the operation of the lift station to be preformed by others.
