This is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing in coordination with the State of Utah Division of Oil, Gas and Mining for a mine reclamation construction project. The project involves 48 mine closures and revegetation of disturbed areas at abandoned precious and base metal mines located in Utah County, Utah. A mandatory site visit is required for all vendors, with strict attendance requirements, and the site visit is expected to last 4 hours and involve rugged terrain access. The contract is anticipated to be awarded to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor, with a contract length of 40 calendar days and a completion deadline of December 31, 2025. High-clearance four-wheel-drive vehicles are recommended for the site visit.

The Engineer's estimate for the project is $300,000.00, and vendors must guarantee their pricing through project completion. Work delays caused by weather may be subject to the owner's discretion for potential contract extension. Vendors must attend a pre-bid meeting with specific time and location details provided in Attachment B of the specifications, and late arrivals will be disqualified from bidding. The procurement is structured as a single contract award, focusing on comprehensive mine closure and environmental restoration services in Utah County.
