Summary of Proposal Report for Project 9849

This is a Proposal Report and construction contract document issued by PennDOT (Pennsylvania Department of Transportation) for a bridge replacement project in Wayne County, Pennsylvania. The project involves replacing the existing structure carrying Township Route 603 (Kinneyville Road) over Equinunk Creek with a single span composite prestressed adjacent box beam structure founded on spread footings. The work area spans 531.04 feet (0.100 miles) in Manchester and Buckingham Townships, with associated roadway realignment, intersection relocation with State Route 4007, a 60-inch pipe replacement, guide rail replacement, erosion and sediment control measures, signing, pavement marking, and structure removal. The bid package includes numerous construction items with specified quantities, including clearing and grubbing (1 lump sum), excavation (multiple classes ranging from 451 to 2,091 cubic yards), geotextile materials, asphalt paving (1,720 square yards), drainage structures, guide rail work, pavement markings, bridge removal (1 lump sum), bridge structure work (1 lump sum), and miscellaneous items such as electronic ticketing and temporary protective systems. The project was scheduled for a bid let date of September 17, 2026, at 11:00 AM, with an anticipated Notice to Proceed of December 14, 2026, and required completion by December 10, 2027.

The project cost range is estimated between $2,500,000.00 and $4,999,999.99, with structure work comprising 60 percent of the project scope. Prequalification is required for contractors, and the project is subject to prevailing wage rate requirements. The contract includes one addendum addressing federal wage rate attachments. Federal funding applies to this project, requiring compliance with numerous federal provisions including Buy America requirements, Executive Order 11246, Federal Acquisition Regulation provisions, DBE requirements (0% set-aside), and Title VI non-discrimination assurances. The project is an ECMS (Electronic Construction Management System) project with all addenda posted electronically. The public bid opening is held at the Commonwealth Keystone Building, 7th Floor, Contract Awards Room, 400 North Street, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, with contact information provided for the Contract Awards office. Special provisions address construction requirements, holiday restrictions, environmental and erosion control measures, traffic control, milestone restrictions with winter shutdown periods (Tuesday before Thanksgiving through April 1), in-stream work restrictions tied to fish and wildlife considerations (February 15 to June 1), and right-of-way requirements. No time extensions are permitted for material procurement delays or delays caused by other parties' work.

Provision Body:

SECTION 106—CONTROL OF MATERIAL

106.10(a) Buy America Provisions. Revise last paragraph to read as follows:

Products manufactured of foreign steel or iron materials may be used, provided the cumulative cost of such products as they are delivered to the project does not exceed 0.1% of the total contract amount, or $2,500, whichever is greater.

Add 106.11 BUILD AMERICA, BUY AMERICA ACT PROVISIONS.

106.11 BUILD AMERICA, BUY AMERICA ACT PROVISIONS—

(a) Build America, Buy America Act. The Federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (Public Law 117-58) includes the Build America, Buy America Act that requires all iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used to be produced in the United States.

The term produced in the United States defined as:

1. Iron or Steel Products. All manufacturing processes from the initial melting stage through the application of coatings occurred in the United States according to Section 106.10(a).

2. Manufactured Product. Final assembly of all manufactured products permanently incorporated into the project must be manufactured in the United States.

2.a A manufactured product, not predominantly steel or iron, is defined as an article, material, or supply that has been processed into a specific form and shape, or combined with other articles, materials, or supplies to create a product with different properties than the individual articles, materials, or supplies.

2.b Predominantly steel or iron is defined as greater than or equal to 50 percent of the total cost of the manufactured product.

2.c Manufactured products that are predominantly steel or iron must comply with Buy America provisions according to Section 106.10(a).

2.d If an article, material, or supply meets this definition but could also be classified as an excluded material or other product category, that article, material, or supply is not a manufactured product.

2.e Mixtures of excluded materials delivered to a work site without final form for incorporation into a project are also not manufactured products.

2.f Manufactured products where the final assembly did not occur in the United States may be used, provided the cumulative cost of such manufactured products is no more than the lesser of $1 million or 5% of total applicable costs for the project.

Provision Body:

SECTION 107—LEGAL RELATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITY TO THE PUBLIC

Section 107.28 EROSION AND SEDIMENT POLLUTION CONTROL PLANS AND PERMITS. Revise to read as follows:

107.28 EROSION AND SEDIMENT POLLUTION CONTROL PLANS AND PERMITS—Install and maintain erosion and sediment (E&S) pollution control devices as indicated or submit an alternate plan for accomplishing equal or better temporary and permanent erosion and water pollution control. If an alternate plan is submitted, do not start work until the plan is approved by the County Conservation District and the Department. If a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit is involved, do not start work until the plan is approved by the DEP or the authorized County Conservation District and the Department. Concrete clean out areas, either contractor designed or indicated within the contract documents, are incidental to the contract items.

When a general or individual NPDES Permit is involved:

At the preconstruction conference, submit a Preparedness, Prevention and Contingency (PPC) Plan and identify a licensed professional (Professional Engineer, Geologist, Land Surveyor or Landscape Architect) registered in the Commonwealth and if applicable, their designee to be present onsite and responsible for implementing critical stages of the approved Post Construction Stormwater Management (PCSM) Plan.

August 20, 2026 07:36:37 AM Page 23 of 93

Do not start earth disturbance activities until an environmental preconstruction meeting is held with DEP or delegated

CCD.

Within 14 days of completing the construction of a stormwater control measure (SCM) as determined by the licensed professional or designee, submit a completed Chapter 102 SCM Construction Certification Form for each SCM to the Representative through PPCC. Form CS-102 has information required to complete the Chapter 102 Form(s). Ensure the General Project and SCM Information, Construction Information, and Licensed Professional Certification sections are completed by the identified licensed professional responsible for overseeing the critical stages of the approved PCSM plan.

Prepare an as-built (record) PCSM Plan to be sealed and signed by the identified licensed professional registered in the Commonwealth. All construction survey, plan preparation, and engineering required for the as-built (record) PCSM Plan will be incidental to the contract items. The as-built (record) PCSM Plan must accurately reflect deviations from the approved PCSM Plan including, but not limited to, plan locations, dimensions, inverts/elevations, materials used and grading. Update the as-built (record) PCSM Plan as construction of the project’s PCSM features progresses. Have the identified licensed professional immediately notify the Representative of all deviations from the approved PCSM Plan. Deviations to the approved PCSM Plan must be submitted for approval. Assist with the determination and documentation if the as-built deviations require a permit amendment or if the PCSM features must be removed and replaced as indicated on the PCSM Plan.

Assist the Representative in performing visual site inspections weekly and after each precipitation event greater than 0.25 inches to ensure the project's E&S Best Management Practices (BMPs) are functioning properly. Immediately initiate corrective actions, at no additional cost to the Department, upon notification by the Representative of noncompliance with the provisions of this section that the Representative has determined requires immediate corrective action under Department policies. For all other notifications of noncompliance, initiate corrective actions within 24 hours. Failure or refusal to promptly comply with such notice upon receipt may, at the Department’s sole discretion, result in: the withholding payment of estimates for work completed until the requirements of the E&S Plan are met, assessment of E&S noncompliance liquidated damages as specified in Section 108.07(d) or issuance of a written order stopping all or part of the work until the corrective action has been taken and the requirements of the E&S Plan are met. No claims for extension of time, costs, or damages arising from, related to, or based upon such notices of noncompliance or stop orders will be granted, paid, or considered.

Nothing in this Section is to be interpreted to relieve the Contractor of its obligation to fully and timely comply with all applicable laws and any permits for the project. The time periods set forth in this Section do not supersede any more stringent time periods required by applicable laws or permits for the project.

If corrective action or noncompliance with the provisions of this Section result from design errors/omissions or a precipitation event exceeding the design storm criteria as specified in applicable Department publications; the cost and/or time required for the performance of the corrective actions for noncompliance notices or stop work orders will be considered as specified in Section 110.03 and Section 108.06, as applicable.

Utilize Department, DEP, or other authorized agency’s form(s) included in the contract or project permits unless directed otherwise by the Representative, DEP, the County Conservation District or other authorized regulatory agency.

For the purpose of determining compliance with the provisions of this section, “substantial completion” will be considered to have been attained when all of the following project milestones have been reached:

Either a semi-final or final inspection has been performed, physical work is complete, and an Environmental Commitments and Mitigation Tracking System (ECMTS) Sheet has been executed if applicable to the project.

Earth disturbance activity has been permanently stabilized and sufficient vegetative growth has been achieved to meet permit conditions (uniform 70% perennial vegetative cover) and agreed to by DEP or delegated CCD.

Installation of PCSM SCMs have occurred if applicable. Upon completion of PCSM conversions and facilities, the County Conservation District must approve the removal of all remaining E&S BMPs.

Once a project with a general or individual NPDES Permit has reached substantial completion, submit to the Representative a DEP Notice of Termination (NOT) Form ensuring Sections 2, 3, 4, 7 and 8, are fully executed.
