4-MINUS FD-15 Trail between Francis & Rauch Rd. 's

The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR), specifically the Susquehannock State Forest, is seeking a contractor to deliver and place approximately 1,850 tons of 4" MINUS material on an existing snowmobile trail located between Francis Road and Rauch Road in Stewardson Township, Potter County. The project requires the contractor to not only deliver the specified material but also compact it after placement, with work to be completed between April 18, 2022 and May 20, 2022. A pre-bid site visit is highly recommended for potential bidders, and the contract will be awarded to the lowest total bidder. The project requires submission of a 4" minus certification form and compliance with specific material specifications, delivery requirements, and compaction standards. The bid response was due on December 29, 2021, with all documentation to be submitted according to the provided statement of work.

The contract opportunity includes provisions for minority-owned, women-owned, and disadvantaged business enterprises (M/WBE/DBE), as evidenced by the attached certification form. The procurement includes requirements for performance security of $10,000 and mandatory insurance coverage, including workers' compensation and $250,000/$1,000,000 in liability insurance. While no specific incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contract includes a Reciprocal Limitations Act form that provides guidelines for bid preferences for Pennsylvania-based businesses. The contracting opportunity is specifically located in Susquehanna County (FIPS Code 42115) and falls under the jurisdiction of the Pennsylvania state government. Although a precise budget range is not explicitly stated, the contract appears to be a relatively focused project for trail maintenance and material placement within the Susquehannock State Forest.
