About this file

This document is a Request for Bid (RFB) issued by the Commonwealth of Kentucky's Division of Abandoned Mine Lands for a construction services project in Pike County, Kentucky. The solicitation (RFB 785 2600000004) seeks contractors to perform site remediation work, specifically addressing an unstable slope and ditch section, with a project scope involving approximately 80 linear feet of concrete block-tied mat removal and installation of a Class III ditch. The bid was issued on 07/14/2025, with electronic bids due by 07/29/2025 at 09:30 AM, and includes a mandatory site visit scheduled for 07/17/2025 at 11:00 AM at 78 Elswick Branch in Jonancy, Kentucky. The project limits encompass 3.37 total acres, with 0.7 acres of planned disturbance, and requires strict sediment and erosion control management.

Bidders must submit a combined PDF of the Official Bid Document and Bid Bond, with a $0.00 contract amount entered in the e-procurement system. The project involves removing unstable material, replacing ditch sections, removing sediment, and restoring grade and drainage, with specific environmental considerations including preservation of trees over 3 inches in diameter and potential contributions to the Imperiled Bat Conservation Fund if required. A public bid reading will be conducted via conference call on the bid opening date, and all results will be posted on the Kentucky State Plan Room website.

***ONLY ONLINE BIDS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR THIS RFB.***

Emailed and hard copies delivered by any method WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

On this line, Bidders must enter $0.00 for Contract Amount in the e-procurement system. Actual Contract Amount must be entered on "Official Bid Document" and submitted as an attachment in the e-procurement system. Vendors should review and update, if necessary, all addresses and contact persons for their account prior to bid submission. This information will carry forward to a contract if awarded, therefore please ensure all information is correct.

** Entire Official Bid Document and Bid Bond (if required) should be combined as one PDF and uploaded**

A section of slope has become unstable in the graded area between the undisturbed forest and a previously installed concrete block-tied mat ditch. This instability has constricted the ditch.

Sediment from this instability has also been deposited downstream at the intersection with an installed grated concrete ditch, allowing water to bypass the ditch and impact the citizens yard.

The unstable material constricting the ditch will be removed and replaced with a Class III buttress. The affected section of ditch (approx. 80LF) will be removed and replaced with 4 flat bottom Class III Ditch. Grates will be removed and replaced after deposited sediment has been removed and modifications complete. To prevent migration of Class III aggregate into the concrete channel, a barrier for aggregate retention will be installed at the interface of the two types of ditch. Sediment deposited in the yard will also be removed to restore grade and drainage.

The project limits are 3.37 acres in total with 0.7 acres of planned disturbance. These include project limits of 0.21 acres at the project site (with an expected maximum disturbance within the project limits of approximately 0.2 acres) and 3.16 acres at the off-site waste area (with an expected maximum disturbance within these project limits of 0.5 acres).

Trees greater than 3 diameter at breast height will not be cut at the project site or waste area. If required, AML will elect to make a payment to the Imperiled Bat Conservation Fund in accordance with a determination from USFWS.

The project site has previously been disturbed by coal mining operations, road construction, utility installation, residential development, landowner activities, and/or high velocity water flows associated with heavy rain events and flooding. These disturbances consist of significant upheaval, mixing, and removal of earthen material from deep excavation, grading, sub-surface drilling, fill material placement, and erosion. There should be no undisturbed earthen material to a depth of several feet at the areas slated for significant project-related construction activities.

Approximately 80 LF of Concrete Block Tied Mat will be removed and a Class III ditch installed. The existing concrete ditch (approx. 60 LF) will have deposited sediment removed. Nothing beyond ephemeral flow has been observed through this area. No portals or cave-like structures will be disturbed by this project.

The strict implementation and enforcement of standard AML sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices (BMPs) will prevent significant amounts of sediments disturbed by project related activities from entering area streams to create indirect impacts to aquatic resources. Sediment control will be installed prior to beginning any major earth disturbance (excluding initial site preparation for access only) until all measures are installed. These include but are not limited to silt barriers (bales & silt fence).

All disturbed areas will be promptly revegetated at the end of construction using cover crop, lime, fertilizer, residential/wildlife seed and mulch as necessary. Trees and brush will be burned at the project site or waste area.
