The project is federally funded, requiring Davis-Bacon wage determinations and Federal-Aid Construction Contract compliance.

DBE participation goals are established for federal-aid compliance; MBE, WBE, and SDVOB goals apply to state-funded portions. Bidders must familiarize themselves with current NYSDOT Standard Specifications (finalized September 1, 2026) and submit bids through either the Bid Express electronic system or sealed paper format. All bids require appropriate bid bonds. Contractors must be registered with the New York State Department of Labor prior to bid submission.

Work is performed across multiple sites designated A through G in Otsego and Schoharie Counties. Comprehensive supplemental project information—including design approval documents, CAD drawings and surfaces, quantity workups, soil boring data, survey control reports, inspection reports, and project permits—is available digitally.

Low bidders must provide both performance and labor-and-material bonds for the full contract amount and submit a current NYS For-Profit Construction Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire (CCA-2) within ten days of award. Contractors are solely responsible for recognizing and responding to any contract amendments and must ensure all required documentation is submitted prior to the letting deadline. Equal employment opportunity requirements and prevailing wage standards apply.
