This contract solicitation, issued under number RFB-785-2600000677-2 by the Kentucky Energy & Environment Cabinet’s Division of Abandoned Mine Lands, seeks construction services focused on civil infrastructure improvements along Trace Branch Road in Perry County. The scope includes earthwork, drainage installation, gabion retaining walls and ditches, HDPE pipe placement, erosion control measures, bituminous repairs, roadway stone, access gates, fencing, guardrail systems, utility relocation, traffic control, structure removal, and debris disposal. All work is performance-based, with delivery quantified by specific units such as cubic yards, linear feet, tons, and acres, and priced via unit rates or lump sums totaling an estimated contract value of $875,950. The project requires in-situ inspection and acceptance at the job site, with compliance implied through adherence to material specifications such as 60 KSI reinforcing steel and standard HDPE pipe, though no formal technical standards like ASTM or AASHTO are explicitly cited. Bids must be submitted electronically no later than July 15, 2026, through Kentucky’s Vendor Self-Service portal, with all documentation combined into a single PDF that includes the official bid document and any required bid bond. Hard copies, emails, or alternative file formats will not be accepted. The procuring contracting officer is Susan Ward, while Lucas Gumm of the Division of Abandoned Mine Lands serves as the project representative fulfilling COR/COTR duties. Offerors must be registered in the state’s eProcurement system, provide a valid FEIN, and certify compliance with non-collusion and BABAA requirements, though socioeconomic status and small business classifications are managed through VSS registration rather than formalized representations. No contract clauses, packaging instructions, evaluation factors, payment office details, or accounting identifiers are specified in the solicitation, while FOB terms, period of performance, and optional quantities are left undefined. The contract type is not declared, but the structure and delivery requirements align with a fixed-price construction service award.
