Summary
This is a Standard Provisions document prepared by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) for the Vernal MS4 Project Detention Pond reconstruction, PIN 23311, scheduled for 2026. The project involves reconstruction of a detention pond with liners and concrete, and bidders must attend a mandatory pre-bid meeting on March 24, 2026, at 11:00 AM at 2773 N Vernal Ave, Vernal, Utah. Proposals from bidders who do not attend or lack documented attendance will be deemed non-responsive. The project must be completed by June 25, 2026. The bidding schedule includes 21 line items encompassing mobilization, silt fence, survey work, geosynthetic materials (geocushion, geonet, and HDPE liner totaling approximately 146,395 square feet combined), site excavation, drainage systems, concrete work, asphalt patching, erosion control, and reinforcing steel. Contract time begins 10 calendar days after issuance of the Notice to Proceed, and liquidated damages range from $560 to $4,870 per day depending on original contract amount, with substantial completion required within the specified contract time and physical completion within 30 days thereafter.
The document establishes comprehensive special provisions covering prosecution and progress, environmental compliance, material quality assurance, and pond liner specifications. Contractors must comply with UDOT 2026 Standard Specifications, implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) or MS4 Compliance Plan, designate an Environmental Control Supervisor, and conduct pre-construction meetings. Material quality assurance requires use of Department pre-qualified suppliers for cement, reinforcing steel, ready-mix concrete, asphalt products, and other specified materials, with authorization based on manufacturer information or Authorized Products List compliance. The pond liner must be 60 mil textured HDPE geomembrane meeting specific ASTM standards for thickness, density, tensile properties, tear resistance, and puncture resistance. Contractors may sublet no more than 70 percent of the total contract amount and must obtain authorization before subletting work. Environmental disincentives of up to $10,000 per day may be assessed for non-compliance with permits and regulations, with escalating charges for violations lasting more than three or seven days. A performance and payment bond is required upon award.
