The Metropolitan District Commission (MDC) in Hartford County, Connecticut, is seeking qualified contractors to provide recycling services for excavated materials generated from District projects. Specifically, the procurement (Solicitation No. 2023B-71) is soliciting bids from contractors capable of accepting and properly managing excavated soils, asphalt pavement, and concrete road base. The goods and services will involve the recycling and appropriate disposal or reuse of construction-related excavation materials.
