Two Rocks Reclamation Project Henry County, MO

The Two Rocks Reclamation Project is a state-level procurement issued by the Missouri Facilities Management, Design & Construction (FMDC) division, specifically targeting coal mine reclamation activities in Henry County. The project encompasses comprehensive site rehabilitation, including backfilling a highwall with an associated hazardous water body, grading, seeding, fertilizing, and mulching all work areas. Prospective contractors must submit electronic bids through the MissouriBUYS system by October 24, 2023, at 1:30 PM CDT, with a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting and site tour scheduled for October 10, 2023, at the intersection of SW 1151 Road and SW 550 Road in Henry County. Bidders are required to complete several mandatory forms, including a Bid Form, Unit Prices Form, Proposed Subcontractors form, and Affidavit of Work Authorization. A 5% bid bond or cashier's check is mandatory with the bid submission, and electronic bid sets are available at no cost, with paper sets obtainable for a $30 refundable deposit.

The solicitation includes specific diversity participation goals, requiring 10% participation for Minority Business Enterprises (MBE), 10% for Women Business Enterprises (WBE), and 3% for Service-Disabled Veteran Enterprises (SDVE). Only MBE/WBE firms certified by Missouri public entities or SDVEs meeting state requirements can be used to satisfy these goals. While the estimated total project value is not specified in the documentation, the comprehensive nature of the reclamation work suggests a significant investment in environmental remediation. Prime contractors are permitted to obtain up to two bid sets at the deposit rate, and all bidders must comply with the state's certification and eligibility requirements. The project appears to be funded through state sources, with no mention of federal funding or specific budget constraints, indicating a state-level environmental restoration initiative focused on addressing historical mining landscape impacts.
