This Master Specification Document pertains to the JH27-130 Hardscrabble Refuse Reclamation Project, issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing with the Division of Oil, Gas and Mining as the conducting unit. The project scope encompasses coal refuse waste excavation and haul, channel construction, site grading and earthwork, runoff control, revegetation of disturbed areas, and road realignment and resurfacing at an abandoned coal refuse pile located in Carbon County, Utah. A mandatory site visit is required for all bidders on Friday, November 13, 2026, at 10:00 AM, with participants meeting at the Price Field Office of the Division of Oil, Gas and Mining at 319 North Carbonville Road, Price, UT 84501. The meeting is expected to last approximately four hours, and attendance at the entire pre-bid meeting is mandatory for bid submission; bids from firms not on record as attending will be deemed nonresponsive. The contract work shall commence upon notice to proceed and must be completed within 84 calendar days from the date of email delivery, hand delivery, or registered mail marking. This solicitation is anticipated to result in a single contract award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor meeting all specifications and mandatory minimum requirements.

The Engineer's Estimate for this project is $7,681,574.00. High-clearance four-wheel-drive vehicles are recommended for the site visit, and carpooling is encouraged due to limited parking availability in Hardscrabble Canyon. The specialized nature of abandoned mine reclamation work, which differs significantly from standard residential or commercial construction and involves unusual conditions and unique circumstances, necessitates the mandatory pre-bid attendance requirement. Bidders are advised to supplement the mandatory meeting by conducting their own examination of the project site during their own time.
