Bidders must be willing and able to comply with prevailing wage requirements based on union-negotiated agreements, maintain certified payroll records, and coordinate work with Department of Natural Resources operations during the spring opening and fall closing of the boating access site. The contract period is 120 calendar days from the Notice-to-Proceed, with liquidated damages assessed at $500 per calendar day for delays in substantial or final completion.
