This is a scope of work document for Greenville County's Soil and Water Conservation District in South Carolina, detailing mowing services for the PL566 Watershed Dam project (RFP #26039). The project encompasses annual mowing of nine flood-control earthen dams and auxiliary spillways constructed by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service during the 1960s and 70s across three watersheds: Huff Creek (five dams), Rabon Creek (one dam), and South Tyger River (three dams). Individual dam areas range from 2.8 to 11.9 acres. The mowing work must be completed within 30 calendar days after receiving the Notice to Proceed. Proposals are due by November 7, 2025, at 3:00 pm, with an anticipated contract award date of November 17, 2025. No specific site visit or bidder's conference dates are identified in the available information. The contract appears to be structured as a single-year engagement with potential for future annual renewals based on satisfactory performance.

Pricing for the project is submitted on a lump sum basis for all nine dam locations combined. The evaluation uses a 100-point system allocating 20 points each to cost, project experience, references, RFP responsiveness, and safety record. Contractors must carry specific insurance coverage including $1,000,000 in comprehensive general liability, $1,000,000 in automobile liability, and statutory worker's compensation coverage, with Greenville County named as an additional insured. No specific budget range, set-asides, or incumbent vendors are identified. Qualified environmental services, landscaping, or agricultural maintenance firms with demonstrated watershed management and dam maintenance expertise are most suitable for this contract. Bidders must submit comprehensive documentation including company background, qualifications, references, safety records, and a proposed project schedule to meet RFP requirements.
