The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is issuing a Small Business (SB) Minor B contract opportunity (07A6360) to cap existing abandoned sewer lines across Los Angeles County, including the jurisdictions of East Los Angeles CDP, Lake Los Angeles CDP, and Los Angeles City. The project encompasses six line items: construction area signs, traffic control systems, plastic traffic drums, job site management, water pollution control program, and minor concrete work totaling approximately 10 cubic yards, with an estimated magnitude of work valued at $85,980.00. Qualified contractors must submit unit price proposals for each line item in both figure and total cost format via email only to tammy.p.tran@dot.ca.gov by the deadline of April 9, 2026, with hard copy submissions explicitly rejected. Bidders must be certified Small Businesses under section 2-1.05, provide their state contractor's license number and classification, Federal ID number or Social Security number, and Department of Industrial Relations registration number. All bids must be accompanied by declarations that no collusion exists and must comply with Public Contract Code 10105(b), which mandates rejection of any bids exceeding $484,000.00. Upon award, the successful contractor will be required to provide payment bonds and insurance as specified by the Department.

No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the solicitation materials. The contract is funded through state resources and is subject to all applicable California procurement regulations. Contractors currently in default with Caltrans may have their bids rejected as non-responsive.
