About this file
This document is a procurement policy file from the Abandoned Mine Land (AML) Division related to contracting preferences for coal industry employees under Section 40701 of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The policy applies to AML construction projects valued over $100,000, with a primary goal of awarding contracts to the lowest responsible bidder while providing employment opportunities for current and former coal mine workers.
The procurement policy offers a unique bidding preference mechanism where qualified contractors who employ at least two former coal mine employees can receive contract priority. Specifically, if a bidder can demonstrate employment of two former coal mine employees and the bid is not more than 2% higher than the lowest bid, they may be given preference in contract award. Bidders must provide proof at the time of bid that current employees include former coal mine workers and that these employees will be utilized in the AML Reclamation project or commit to employing at least two former coal mine employees.
