About this file

This is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) Volume 2 for a construction contract issued by the Hudson River - Black River Regulating District (a New York State agency) for the Old Forge Dam and Sixth Lake Dam Rehabilitation project. The contract involves comprehensive rehabilitation work at two dam locations: Old Forge Dam at the western end of First Lake in Webb, Herkimer County, and Sixth Lake Dam at the southern end of Sixth Lake in Inlet, Hamilton County. The work includes replacement and expansion of spillways, construction of new gate enclosures, installation of new gates, and construction of new downstream aprons at both dam sites. The project is being executed as a single prime contract with a mandatory pre-bid site meeting required. The bid documents include detailed specifications across multiple volumes covering material and performance specifications, construction drawings, permits, environmental assessments, and comprehensive payment items totaling 63 line items for work at both dam sites. A pre-construction conference is required within 14 days of contract execution, and contractors must demonstrate adequate workforce, equipment, and schedule compliance. The contract incorporates New York State labor law requirements, prevailing wage rates, MWBE/EEO requirements, and sexual harassment prevention certifications.

Specific pricing and payment terms are established through a unit-price and lump-sum bid methodology with payment items listed in Section 9 of the IFB, including mobilization and demobilization (2.0 percent of contract price for mobilization, paid in four equal installments), with demobilization at not less than 1.0 percent of contract price. The contract includes performance and payment bonds, liquidated damages provisions for failure to meet schedule requirements, and a correction period following substantial completion as defined in the General Conditions. Bidders must provide bid security in the form of a bid bond and demonstrate vendor responsibility certification through New York State Finance Law compliance. The contract requires compliance with State Finance Law sections 139-J, 139-K, and 139-L regarding responsibility determinations and sexual harassment prevention. No incumbent information or set-aside programs are specified in the available document sections. Funding sources and total contract value are not explicitly stated in the provided bid document excerpt, though the project is a state-funded public works improvement for dam rehabilitation and safety enhancement managed by a Hudson River - Black River Regulating District.
