Borrow Excavation and Earthwork

The contract encompasses the excavation of borrow material for road embankment and grading work, with all associated site preparation and precise volume measurement required to meet project specifications. A 35 percent shrinkage deduction is applied to the measured volume of excavated material to account for compaction and reduction in volume during placement, ensuring accurate payment based on the final compacted state of the earthwork. All activities must be performed strictly in accordance with engineering standards to support the structural integrity of the road construction. The work is to be performed in Laurens, South Carolina, under the jurisdiction of the South Carolina Department of Transportation, with the contract classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 237990, indicating non-specific construction activities related to transportation infrastructure. The solicitation was posted on August 11, 2026, with a response deadline set for the same date, suggesting a very short turnaround or administrative adjustment in the posting timeline. Proposals must be submitted through the official SCDOT bidding portal, and all contractors are expected to comply with state transportation regulations and practices for earthwork and borrow material utilization.
