About this opportunity
The USDA Farm Production and Conservation agency is soliciting bids for an ACEP-Wetland Reserve Easement restoration project involving comprehensive site preparation work in Hardin County, Illinois. The procurement encompasses excavating 300 cubic yards for wetland berm construction, installing 77 linear feet of 12-inch diameter corrugated metal pipe with water control structures, placing approximately 670 cubic yards of embankment earthfill, and seeding 0.4 acres with tall fescue and red clover including mulch application. Contractors must participate in a mandatory site visit scheduled for September 9, 2025, at 10:30 AM CT, and the work requires adherence to specific technical specifications including Class C compaction standards, anti-seep collar installation, and precise elevation requirements. The solicitation operates under simplified acquisition procedures with quotes due by 2:00 PM CST on September 19, 2025, submitted via email to the contracting officer. A mandatory pre-construction meeting with the contracting officer is required before work commencement, and the contract includes mobilization and demobilization requirements for all necessary equipment and personnel.
This opportunity is designated as a 100% small business set-aside with an estimated contract value of less than $25,000, making it accessible exclusively to qualified small business contractors. The work will be performed at 361 Bend of the River Road in Cave-In-Rock, Illinois, within the Shawnee National Forest area near the Ohio River. The performance period is limited to October 1-30, 2025, requiring contractors to complete all restoration activities within this 30-day window. The project involves specific measurable deliverables including the installation of anti-seep collars, precise pipe placement with flange components, and seeding at designated rates of 12 pounds per acre for tall fescue and 8 pounds per acre for red clover. Amendment 0001 clarified that borrow material will be available onsite and that only 6-inch topsoil stripping is required for the berm construction, eliminating the need for core trench excavation.
