This project is for a nutrient reduction wetland. In general, the work involves, but is not limited to, selective clearing, excavation, grading, tied concrete block mat installation, tile installation, water control structure, riprap, and seeding. This project includes about 22,900 cubic yards of earthwork, installation of 2,500 square feet of tied concrete block mat, water control structure, 1270 linear feet (LF) of tile installation, 30.5 tons of erosion stone, and 6 acres of seeding. The estimated construction cost range for this project is $180,000 to $200,000.

Construction will commence within 7 days of the preconstruction meeting, unless otherwise mutually agreed upon.

Construction deadline: 11/15/2027

Seeding deadline-buffer: 12/15/2027 (MUST BE COMPLETED WITHIN THE BUFFER SEEDING PERIOD.)

Seeding deadline-structure: 12/15/2027 (MUST BE COMPLETED WITHIN THE STRUCTURE SEEDING PERIOD.)

Given the number of projects being bid and the meetings involved, we believe we can be more strategic in determining when in-person attendance is necessary. To improve efficiency while maintaining appropriate participation and communication, a virtual attendance option is being added for pre-bid meetings. This option is intended to provide flexibility and is not a replacement for attendance or participation when in-person attendance is necessary.

If you plan to attend the pre-bid meeting in person, you MUST email Tracy.Blocker@iowaagriculture.gov by 3:00 PM the day prior to the pre-bid meeting to confirm your in-person attendance.

mailto:Tracy.Blocker@Iowa.agriculture.gov

If no one has indicated that they will attend in person by the deadline, the pre-bid meeting will be held virtually only. No in-person meeting will be held in that circumstance.

Attendance at the pre-bid conference by prospective bidders is not mandatory but is encouraged.

In-Person Pre-Bid Meeting Option: RSVP Required by 3:00 PM the Day Prior

Time: 9:30 AM

Date: 10/28/2026

Location: Shop, Shop, Winthrop, IA 50682
