PROJECT DESCRIPTION: NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that sealed Bids shall be received from qualified bidders on PennBid and in person at the office of the Engineer, Peters Consultants, Inc., 2701 Columbia Boulevard, Bloomsburg, PA 17815, for the Borough of Mount Carmel, “Demolition of 34 North Locust Street”, and all appurtenant work, in strict accordance with the Contract Documents on file at the office of the Engineer, Peters Consultants, Inc. or at the office of the Owner, Borough of Mount Carmel, 50 West Third Street, Mount Carmel, PA 17851. DATE OF OPENING BIDS: Bids shall be received by the Borough of Mount Carmel online via PennBid Program at http://PennBid.Bonfirehub.com or at the office of the Engineer until 11:00 A.M. local time on May 10, 2024 at which time they will be publicly opened and read aloud. Hardcopies of the bids shall be submitted in sealed envelopes marked on the outside “Sealed Bid for the Demolition of 34 North Locust Street”. DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK: The Work comprises the demolition of all structures, sheds, other ancillary property structures, property restoration and all appurtenances for a complete job and in accordance with these Contract Documents. The existing structure has been declared unsafe to enter to complete the asbestos testing. The facilities and building materials must be kept adequately wet at all times, starting with the demolition process, through site cleanup, transport and final disposal. "Adequately wet" means sufficiently wet to prevent the release of particulates and there are no visible emissions observed from any asbestos-containing material. If visible emissions are observed, the demolition must cease, and additional wetting must be performed until no emissions are occurring. However, the absence of visible emissions is not sufficient evidence of being adequately wet. For a complete discussion of the structurally unsound and in danger of imminent collapse provisions under the Asbestos NESHAP, please refer to 40 C.F.R. §§ 61.141 and 61.145(a)(3), 61.145(c)(4) -(9). The Engineer’s Certified Asbestos Inspector will be onsite during the demolition process. Contact Mr. Ed Cuff, Borough Manager, at +1 (555) 000-0000 to schedule a visit to the site.
