HUM-96 Drainage Repairs (0P470)

The HUM-96 Drainage Repairs project involves repairing, replacing, or reconstructing nine failed or failing drainage systems along Route 96 in Humboldt County, California, between postmiles 5.98 and 19.10. The primary objective is to restore and maintain the structural integrity of the road fill prism by enhancing culvert functionality. All culvert work is conducted as in-kind replacement, with existing 18-inch diameter culverts being upgraded to 24-inch diameter units to improve long-term maintenance access and hydraulic capacity. Drainage patterns and roadway cross slopes will be preserved, with only minor adjustments to flowline elevations permitted at replacement sites. The project is categorized as a Class 1 Categorical Exemption under the California Public Resources Code, meaning it falls under a predefined exemption for maintenance of existing infrastructure without significant environmental impact. The lead agency is Caltrans, District 1 - Eureka, with Coady Reynolds serving as the primary point of contact and Nanette Nickerson designated as the individual carrying out the project. No specific contract value, pricing details, or payment information is provided, and the solicitation is posted as a forecast with no formal contract type or award method designated. The place of performance is strictly limited to the specified corridor on Route 96, and all inspection and acceptance responsibilities reside with Caltrans. No formal FAR clauses, contract administration data such as COR/COTR designations, accounting codes, invoicing systems, or offeror certifications are included in the documentation. The project follows standard infrastructure repair protocols without special requirements for security, key personnel, options, or organizational conflict provisions.
