About this file

This is a Solicitation for Construction Material for Type 1 Rock Purchase near Missouri River at River Mile 52.8.

The contractor must deliver 7,500 tons of Type 1 rock to a contractor-run loading facility at river mile 52.8, where the rock will be loaded onto Government-owned barges at a delivery rate of 1,000 tons per day. The stone must be broken, durable, and approved by the Contracting Officer, resistant to disintegration from air and water exposure. Quarry operations must employ selective quarrying, handling, processing, and blending techniques to produce stone conforming to specified size ranges and quality standards. Blasting operations must be precisely controlled using appropriate hole diameter, depth, angle, burden spacing, explosive types and distribution, and delay sequences to prevent product damage. The maximum weight of any individual stone piece is limited to 3,000 pounds. Stone gradation must be reasonably well-graded with no more than 5 percent by weight finer than ½-inch screen, meeting Type 1 specifications: 80-100 percent at 3,000 lbs, 60-90 percent at 1,000 lbs, 30-70 percent at 500 lbs, 0-50 percent at 100 lbs, 0-35 percent at 50 lbs, and 0-5 percent at 1 lb. Temporary storage of stone materials requires Contracting Officer approval, and underwater storage is prohibited. Payment measurement may be made by public scales (with weights reduced to the nearest 20th of a ton and trucks tared at least twice daily) or by barge displacement (measured to the nearest 0.01 foot at fore, aft, port, and starboard positions and converted to the nearest 100th of a ton).
