The sand must comply with Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) Permit JCP 0331817-001-JC requirements and the County's technical specifications, including a preferred Munsell Color Value of 8 for moist samples. Delivery is required to Lowdermilk Park in Naples, Florida (1301 Gulfshore Boulevard, Naples, Florida 34102).

Bidders must submit pricing on a unit cost basis with an adjustment factor of $0.20 per ton per mile, calculated from the shortest allowable truck route from the mining operation to the delivery location. Three upland sand sources are currently approved: Stewart's Immokalike mine, Vulcan's Witherspoon mine, and CEMEX's Lake Wales mine. The County intends to award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and may select one or more bidders on a line-item basis, establishing Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary awardees. Local vendor preference (LVP) eligibility is available for Collier County and Lee County business tax receipt holders.
