Asbestos, Lead-Based Paint, Mold, And Abatement Services

The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is soliciting bids for as-needed asbestos, lead-based paint, and mold abatement services at the Sierra Conservation Center in Jamestown, California. The contractor will be responsible for all labor, equipment, materials, and permits required to clean, remove, transport, and dispose of hazardous materials from building components, including roofing, insulation, piping, walls, floor tiles, and mastic. All work must adhere to federal, state, and local regulations, including AHERA and CDPH certifications. The selected contractor must respond to service requests within two business days and remain available for emergency call-outs. Award will be based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, with a 3 percent Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise participation goal. Bidders must possess a valid California city or county business license and a CSLB C-22 Asbestos Abatement Contractor Specialty License. Due to the nature of the facility, all personnel must undergo a rigorous gate clearance process, including background checks, and adhere to strict security protocols regarding prohibited electronic devices and specific clothing restrictions to distinguish staff from incarcerated individuals. Contract administration requires electronic invoicing and the submission of monthly schedule updates and data binders containing waste manifests and training records. Performance is subject to on-site inspection by the State, which serves as the sole judge of workmanship. Bidders must submit their proposals electronically by July 25, 2026, including a completed Public Works Rate Sheet and various state certifications, such as the Drug-Free Workplace and Non-Collusion affidavits.
