About this file
This document is a pre-solicitation notice for a federal contract opportunity related to the Williams Creek Surfacing project on the Salmon-Challis National Forest.
The project will involve pit development, mining materials, crushing and blending pit material into a surface course aggregate, and performing roadway reconditioning and surfacing along a 7-mile section of Forest Service Road 101. The work includes clearing, grubbing, overburden removal, crushing, mixing the aggregate with bentonite, stockpiling, testing, and final site reclamation. The contractor will be responsible for surface preparation, spreading, watering, compacting, temporary traffic control, and erosion control measures.
The estimated magnitude of the construction project is between $500,000 and $1,000,000. The solicitation is expected to be issued at a later date when the project site is unavailable due to seasonal closures or weather. Interested vendors are encouraged to attend a site visit on November 6, 2024 at 10:00 am MT. The project will be overseen by the USDA Forest Service.

This project will involve pit development of a government source, mining materials, crushing pit material into a blended surface course aggregate with commercial source additives.
Items to complete:
0. Perform roadway reconditioning along project length (7 miles of reconditioning from MP 21 to MP 28 of FSR 101).
0. Crush, mix, haul, and place surface course aggregate along project length (7 miles of surfacing from MP 21 to MP 28 of FSR 101).
Crush and Stockpile Aggregate includes development and use of pits, either government source or commercial source, to the specified gradation, including adding approximately 2% bentonite by weight to achieve desired properties. Actual % will be based on contractor’s initial materials testing. This includes clearing and grubbing, removing overburden, mining, crushing, mixing aggregate with bentonite using a pugmill, weighing, creating stockpiles (including any loading or hauling to create stockpiles), testing, and final site reclamation including placing overburden, waste materials, mulching, and seeding. Perform the work in accordance with MSHA 30 CFR, part 56.
Surfacing - Aggregate Surface Course includes necessary surface preparations before placing aggregate such as: material and quality control testing, surface preparation (reconditioning), clearing and grubbing, spreading, watering, compacting, temporary traffic control, erosion control measures, and all other incidental work to surface the road (see surfacing typical on sheet G-05).
Surface to the compacted depth specified in the drawings for the full roadway width, including all existing turnouts and widenings. Intersecting roads shall be bladed, shaped and surfaced for a smooth transition. Spread control and staking for aggregate is the responsibility of the contractor.
Protect the environment and resources impacted by all construction activity according to all legal requirements, regulations, specifications, and best management practices (BMPs).
East Leesburg Pit: Develop pit for operations, including clearing and grubbing, all incidental to crush and stockpile aggregate payment. Mine, crush, and blend aggregate with approved additives, stockpile material in the pit for surfacing.
Site Visit Location:
From Salmon, ID: Head down US-93 South for 5 miles. Then turn right on FSR (Forest Service Road) 021. After about 1 mile, keep left on FSR 021/Williams Creek Road. At Williams Creek Summit (~MP 14), take a right on FSR 020. Continue for roughly 3 miles and hang left on FSR 234 through an open gate. The pit is located about half a mile past the gate and will be on your right (lat/long: 45.124, -114.083).
Directional information may be obtained from Salmon-Cobalt Ranger District at 208-756-5200. Maps will be available at the District Office.
