Cub Creek Restoration

The Town of Wilkesboro is seeking sealed bids for the restoration of approximately 3,840 linear feet of Cub Creek, completing the northeast section to its confluence with the Yadkin River. The project is funded through the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds under the American Rescue Plan Act, administered by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality, and all contractual obligations must comply with federal requirements set by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Bids must be submitted in hard copy only by 4:00 PM EST on August 13, 2026, to the Town’s physical address or post office box; electronic submissions are strictly prohibited. The award will be made on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder whose proposal fully conforms to the technical specifications and all mandatory attachments, including certifications on lobbying, E-Verify compliance, debarment status, conflict of interest, and fiscal recovery fund use. The contract term runs through December 31, 2026, with eligible costs incurred from March 3, 2021, to December 31, 2024. Performance occurs at 105 Oakwoods Rd, Wilkesboro, NC, with F.O.B. Destination terms, meaning title transfers upon Town acceptance. Work must adhere to detailed material specifications, including stone size ranges and tolerances, erosion control standards, and compliance with North Carolina statutes, federal labor laws, and anti-trafficking, anti-terrorism, and anti-retaliation statutes. Payments are processed by the Engineering Firm upon inspection and approval, with no electronic invoicing systems specified, and all invoices require supporting documentation like payrolls and tax affidavits. No contract value is disclosed, as pricing data is omitted from the bid tables, and the maximum payable amount is referenced but not quantified. The contractor must flow down all federal requirements to subcontractors, maintain conflict of interest policies, and comply with auditing rights by the Department of Labor and federal oversight bodies.
