A - 1

BACKGROUND

1. The City of Ocala requires the services of an experienced contractor to complete the construction of Ocala International Airport (OCF) Runway 36 RSA Grading.

The scope of the project consists of furnishing all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, and incidentals necessary to complete the Runway 36 Runway Safety Area (RSA) Grading Project at Ocala International Airport (OCF) in accordance with the Contract Documents.

The primary objective of the project is to regrade the Runway 36 RSA to meet current Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) design standards. Work includes site preparation, demolition, earthwork, grading, material reuse, and site restoration. The Contractor shall remove the existing gravel service road, strip and stockpile topsoil, and salvage suitable aggregate for reuse. Reusable materials shall be stockpiled and protected in accordance with the Contract Documents.

Earthwork operations shall include excavation, placement of approved fill, and fine grading to achieve the design elevations and slopes. Fill material shall consist of approved AASHTO A-3 material or equal and shall be placed and compacted in accordance with specifications. The finished RSA shall be stable and compliant with FAA requirements.

Additionally, the Contractor shall reinstall the salvaged gravel service road for final restoration, including placement of topsoil, finish grading, and sodding of disturbed areas. The Work includes protection and modification of existing airfield infrastructure, including utilities, lighting systems, and NAVAIDS. The Contractor shall adjust the elevations of select Medium Intensity Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights (MALSR) to accommodate the proposed grading as shown on the engineering plans. The Contractor shall coordinate with a concurrent FAA project for the installation of conduits and associated infrastructure serving FAA utilities within or adjacent to the project limits. This coordination shall include scheduling and sequencing, of construction operations.

All work shall be performed within the Air Operations Area (AOA) in accordance with the approved Construction Safety and Phasing Plan (CSPP). The Contractor shall comply with all safety, security, and operational requirements, including access control, haul routes, and Foreign Object Debris (FOD) management. Work will be performed in a single phase during nighttime hours and will require temporary runway closures. The Contractor shall coordinate closures with the Owner and support issuance of Notices to Air Missions (NOTAMs).

The Contractor shall provide and maintain all temporary safety measures, including barricades, warning devices, and lighted “X” runway closure markers, and shall maintain a clean and safe work environment throughout the project. Upon completion, all disturbed areas shall be restored and the site left in a condition acceptable to the Owner and Engineer.

2. Badging of individuals in supervisory positions will be required. Allow 2 hours for the badging process.

There is no cost for the badges.

DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DBE):

1. The City of Ocala adopts FDOT’s goal of 10.65% as a race-neutral DBE goal. This means the City's goal is to spend at least 10.65% of contract expenditures with certified DBE's as prime firms, or as subcontractors/sub-consultants. Race-neutrality means the City hopes the overall goal can be achieved

REV 5/18/2026 Exhibit A – SCOPE OF WORK Contract# AIR/260692

A - 2 through the normal competitive procurement process without using DBE required goals. FDOT funded projects have an overall DBE goal of 10.65%. For projects specifically for the Ocala International Airport, the DBE goal is 12%. Although not a contract requirement, the City believes this DBE percentage can realistically be achieved on projects through use of DBE prime and DBE subcontractors performing services anticipated on projects. Prime contractors or consultants may be requested to submit a DBE Utilization form indicating their firm's proposed use of DBE subcontractors. Prime construction contractors for FDOT-funded projects are required to visit http://www.fdot.gov/equalopportunity/eoc.shtm to register and submit their DBE commitments online.
