The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) is conducting a Request for Competitive Quotes (RFCQ) No. S-73000-00013533 for the ESB US26 MP11.9 Stockpile Cleanup Project located in Clatsop County. The procurement seeks one Emerging Small Business (ESB) qualified contractor to remove approximately 225 dump truck loads of debris, including mud, crushed rock, and asphalt chunks, currently stockpiled on the shoulder of US26 at Milepost 11.9. The project requires the contractor to handle debris pick-up, transportation, and final disposal, including obtaining all necessary environmental and regulatory permits. Work must be performed between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm Monday through Friday, with no work allowed on weekends or state-observed holidays. The key project dates include a Substantial Completion Date of June 25, 2025, and a Final Completion Date of June 30, 2025. The evaluation will be conducted using a pass/fail method, considering responsiveness, Construction Contractors Board (CCB) licensing, ESB certification, and satisfactory performance record. All quotes must be submitted electronically through the OregonBuys system by May 2, 2025.

The contract is exclusively reserved for contractors certified as an Emerging Small Business through the Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity (COBID). Contractors must perform at least 51% of the labor using their own workforce and comply with all ESB Program requirements. The procurement requires bidders to be registered in the OregonBuys system and provide references for comparable projects. Selected contractors will need to maintain specific insurance coverages, including Workers' Compensation, Commercial General Liability, and Commercial Automobile Liability, with specified minimum coverage amounts. The contract will be awarded on a Lump Sum basis, with pricing to be inserted prior to contract execution. Liquidated damages are established at $100 per calendar day for each day beyond the Substantial Completion date. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the contractor will be responsible for providing two "trucks entering highway" safety signs and managing dust control and environmental safeguards throughout the project duration.
