About this file
This is an attachment to RFP 200000001437 outlining bridge operator qualifications for what appears to be a Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) bascule bridge operation contract. The attachment establishes employment standards designed to protect public safety and promote efficiency in land and water transportation. The document does not specify quantities, response dates, due dates, site visits, bidder meetings, award dates, or contract terms, as it focuses exclusively on operator qualification requirements rather than procurement mechanics.
The qualification requirements are divided into three categories: physical requirements, general eligibility criteria, and skills/education standards. Physical requirements include corrected vision of 20/40 or better, color vision capability, specific hearing thresholds, ability to climb stairs and ladders, drug-free status under federal requirements, ability to hand crank bridge gates, and capacity to carry approximately thirty pounds. General eligibility requires applicants to be at least eighteen years old and maintain a local telephone for emergency contact. Skills and education standards mandate the ability to read and comprehend MDOT and U.S. Coast Guard manuals, maintain accurate logs in legible English, communicate effectively on VHF marine radio, follow instructions, perform minor maintenance, and obtain Trained Bridge Operator certification. Operator certification is valid for twenty-four months per bridge, and operators assigned to multiple bridges must be trained on each structure individually.
