SACRAMENTO RIVER TRAIL REPAVING GAOA

The Bureau of Land Management’s Northern California District is preparing to solicit bids for the pavement rehabilitation of approximately 12.88 miles of the Sacramento River Rail Trail system near Redding, California, encompassing the Shasta Dam Trail, Keswick Dam Trail, and Middle Creek Trail segments. The project addresses widespread pavement degradation, including transverse and longitudinal cracking, structural failures, and shoulder deterioration, which threaten safety, increase long-term maintenance expenses, and degrade the user experience for pedestrians and cyclists. Work will involve localized remove-and-replace patching, crack sealing, asphalt overlay, shoulder backing, conformed grinding at intersections, paving interfaces around locking bollards, and new striping. The contract will be issued as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR Part 19.5, with a sole firm fixed price award anticipated, and the North American Industry Classification System code is 237310 for Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction, with a small business size standard of $45 million in annual revenue. The estimated contract value is between one and five million dollars, and the Davis Bacon Act wage determinations will apply, requiring compliance with prevailing wage rates. All materials must meet Buy American Act requirements. The solicitation, identified as 140L1226R0005, is slated for release in early to mid-June 2026 via SAM.gov with a 30-day posting window, and interested firms must be registered in the System for Award Management and have completed all required certifications to be eligible for award. No paper copies or email distribution of the solicitation will be provided; offerors are responsible for monitoring SAM.gov and FBO.gov for updates. A site visit will be scheduled and details included in the solicitation, and attendance is strongly recommended to accurately assess site conditions and associated costs. Proposals will be evaluated based on best value to the government under the Federal Acquisition Regulations, and this notice does not commit the government to award a contract or reimburse any pre-proposal expenses.
