Geocomposite Drainage and Gas Vent Layer Installation

The contract involves the installation of geocomposite layers designed for leachate drainage and passive gas venting beneath the final cover system at a landfill site managed by the Commonwealth of Kentucky through the Frankfort agency. The work requires precise placement of specialized synthetic materials to ensure effective collection and removal of leachate while simultaneously allowing for the safe, unassisted release of landfill gases to prevent pressure buildup and potential environmental hazards. The scope focuses exclusively on the subsurface layers directly under the protective cap, necessitating adherence to strict engineering standards for material compatibility, seam integrity, and gradient alignment to maintain long-term functionality. This is a subcontract opportunity posted on July 15, 2026, with a deadline for responses set for July 21, 2026, at 5:30 PM. The North American Industry Classification System code 238990 categorizes the work under other heavy and civil engineering construction activities, indicating it falls outside standard construction scopes and demands technical expertise in environmental containment systems. Performance will take place at an unspecified location in Kentucky, with the place of performance noted as “Other,” suggesting the site is known to qualified bidders but not publicly disclosed. The contract does not specify a set-aside for small businesses or other categories, and all interested parties must respond through the official Kentucky vendor portal prior to the deadline.
