Jefferson County — CSJ 6497-67-001 — May 2026 Letting — State-Let Maintenance

The contract under solicitation number 6497-67-001 is a state-let maintenance project administered by the Texas Department of Transportation for work to be performed in Jefferson County, Texas, with a let date in May 2026. It encompasses a range of pavement and roadway rehabilitation activities including milling and overlay of existing hot mix asphalt, concrete curb and gutter removal, spalling and patching repairs using both hydraulic cement and polymer-modified materials, concrete sawing and drilling, guardrail and sign assembly removal, and hauling of debris. Pavement marking installations are specified with strict performance standards for retroreflective materials and raised markers, requiring compliance with TxDOT specifications such as OMS-4200 and OMS-4300, and adherence to visibility thresholds of 300 feet in daylight and 160 feet at night. Work must follow approved Standard Sheets and test protocols, including T313 for asphalt binder performance, T72 for viscosity, and ASTM D6084 for elastic recovery, with all quality control and inspection responsibilities vested in the TxDOT Engineer. The contract includes special requirements mandating strict compliance with state-level certifications and security protocols, including mandatory use of the E-Verify system for employment eligibility, disclosure of interested parties via Form 1295 when contract value exceeds $1 million, and affirmation that no conflict of interest exists with TxDOT personnel. Contractors must also certify compliance with anti-discrimination regulations under 49 CFR Part 21 and are prohibited from engaging in activities that constitute intimidation or misuse of confidential information. Security requirements extend to subcontractors who access TxDOT data, requiring them to adopt the same data protection standards. Liquidated damages are structured hierarchically based on contract value, ranging from $760 per day for contracts up to $1 million to $3,072 per day for contracts over $25 million. While the proposal must be submitted as an integrated package with a signed bond and all addenda acknowledged, no formal FAR clauses or federal procurement specifications apply. Pricing is presented in unit rates without formal CLINs or total contract valuation, and submission logistics rely on established state procedures rather than federal systems like WAWF or UEI identification. Performance is tied to technical compliance, timely execution, and adherence to state-mandated environmental and safety protocols without federal socioeconomic set-asides or detailed evaluation factors outlined.
