The project involves procurement of 500 cubic yards of appropriately sized gravel (1"-8" with an ideal composition of at least 80% mix of 3"-6" rounded river gravel) to be delivered and placed in the Applegate River approximately 0.6 miles downstream of the Applegate Dam to restore spawning habitat for salmon and steelhead. The solicitation requires bidders to submit pricing for 250 cubic yards with delivery in 2026 (Item 1) and 250 cubic yards with delivery in 2027 (Item 2), with an optional line item for 500 cubic yards with delivery in 2026 (Item 3).

The contract will be effective upon full execution and terminate on June 30, 2027, with no renewal options.

The procurement encourages participation from Certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs), including Disadvantaged Business Enterprises, Minority-Owned Businesses, Woman-Owned Businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses, and Emerging Small Businesses, with bidders required to complete a Certified Disadvantaged Business Outreach Plan. Mandatory bid submittal requirements include a bid cover sheet, bid submittal form, reference check form, responsibility inquiry, and COBID certification/outreach plan. Bidders must provide evidence of comparable experience from two different firms within the last three years and certify financial capability, contract performance history, absence of criminal or civil fraud charges, current licensing and insurance, and possession of a valid Pay Equity Certificate.
