About this file
This is a preliminary bid tabulation document for an Invitation to Bid (ITB No. 73000-00017965) issued by the Oregon Department of Transportation for tree and brush removal services along Interstate 5, milepost 48.3 to 50, in Josephine County, Oregon. The project encompasses six line items covering mobilization, temporary traffic protection and direction, and tree and brush removal across multiple segments of Interstate 5 southbound and northbound shoulders, with work to be completed by December 15, 2026. The bid closing date was October 7, 2026, with a mandatory pre-bid conference held on September 30, 2026. Three bidders submitted quotes: Trees Plus Northwest, LLC (Central Point, OR) totaling $223,000; Underdog Timber Felling (Medford, OR) totaling $290,000; and Backwoods General Contracting, LLC totaling $305,000. The project requires removal of trees and brush from specified highway areas, including material disposal, stump and brush treatment, and clearing to establish adequate sight lines and safety zones around bridge structures and ramps.
This solicitation is exclusively restricted to Oregon-certified Emerging Small Businesses (ESBs) under ORS 200.160-200.200, with the selected contractor required to perform at least 51 percent of project labor using its own workforce. Bid security of 10 percent of the total bid amount and performance and payment bonds equal to the contract price are required. Contractors must provide commercial general liability insurance with $2 million per-occurrence and $5 million annual-aggregate limits, plus commercial automobile liability insurance with $1 million combined single limit. Prevailing wage rates apply per the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries for Josephine County (Region 8) as of September 3, 2026. Liquidated damages of $600 per calendar day apply for missed substantial completion, with additional damages of $500 per 15-minute interval per lane for lane closures exceeding allowable limits. Award is based on the lowest total quote price submitted by a responsive, responsible offeror. The preliminary tabulation indicates this is not an indicator of final award and remains under consideration.
