Everett Smelter Uplands Residential 2022 Cleanup Group

The State of Washington, through the Department of Ecology, Toxics Cleanup Program, is seeking bids for the Everett Smelter Uplands Residential 2022 Cleanup Group project. This project will remediate soils contaminated with arsenic from the former Asarco Smelter at 26 single-family residential properties in north Everett, Washington. The scope of work includes implementing temporary construction controls, selective demolition, soil excavation and disposal, importing clean fill, property restoration, and landscaping. The project has an estimated cost range of $3,000,000 to $3,700,000 and allows 240 calendar days for Substantial Completion and an additional 60 days for Final Completion. Bids are due by 3:00 PM on November 7, 2024, with a voluntary pre-bid meeting scheduled for September 10, 2024. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

The State has established voluntary participation goals of 10% MBE, 6% WBE, 5% Washington Small Business, and 5% Veteran Owned Business, but these are not mandatory requirements. However, the project does have a mandatory 15% apprenticeship utilization requirement, with incentives for meeting the goal and penalties for not meeting it. The contract may be extended for up to two additional one-year terms at the State's discretion. No incumbent contractor information is provided in the documents.
