GENERAL CONDITIONS

PART 1: OHIO DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION SPECIFICATIONS

This Muskingum #4 Re offer Project (Project) references the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT)

Construction and Material Specifications (ODOT CMS). Any reference to these specifications is to

ODOT’s most current version of the specifications. The ODOT CMS can be found at

https://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/ConstructionMgt/OnlineDocs/Pages/2023-Online-Spec-Book.aspx

PART 2: PRE-SITE MEETING

The Contractor or Contractor's representative must attend the pre-site meeting. Failure to attend the pre-site

meeting is grounds for the Division to reject the Contractor’s Offer.

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Oil & Gas Resources Management (Division)

intends to begin the pre-site meeting on time. At the meeting, the Division will circulate and collect

attendance sign-in forms to all contractors present. Only those contractors in attendance throughout the pre-

site meeting, including the discussion of the Scope of Work, will be considered present for the pre-site

meeting.

PART 3: MODIFICATIONS TO THE SCOPE OF WORK PRIOR TO AWARD

The Scope of Work may only be altered by written modification. The Division may issue an Amendment

to the Scope of Work and will provide a notification of the Amendment by email to all Department of

Administrative Services (DAS) pre-qualified contractors. Each contractor is responsible for logging into

OhioBuys and submitting an offer that is responsive to all Amendments issued. All offers submitted prior

to an amendment being issued shall become null/void and not consider in the opening. All Amendments

shall become part of the Scope of Work.

Any interpretation or clarification of the Scope of Work made by any person other than the Division, or in

any manner other than a written Amendment, is not binding and the Contractor cannot rely upon any such

interpretation or clarification.

The Contractor cannot, at any time after the award of the Scope of Work be compensated for any issue with

the Scope of Work, including alleging insufficient data, incomplete, ambiguous, conflicting, or erroneous

language, or incorrectly assumed conditions regarding the nature or character of the work.

PART 4: PERMIT AND INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS

The Division will obtain and pay for all building and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permits unless

otherwise specified in the Detailed Specifications. However, the Contractor shall determine and include in

his or her Offer Sheet the costs required to obtain and pay for all other requirements by the applicable

governmental agencies; including but not limited to, all certificates of inspection/operation, guarantees,

licenses, etc. required to complete the work as described within this document. The contractor shall follow

Muskingum #4 Re Offer

all applicable laws and permit requirements and the Division will not be held responsible for damages that

result from violation of laws or permits.

PART 5: INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARING AN OFFER

A Contractor’s offer must be submitted online through OhioBuys.

(https://procure.ohio.gov/bidders-and-suppliers). All offers submitted prior to an Amendment being

issued shall automatically become null/void and not consider in the opening.

Offers shall include labor, equipment, and material cost plus a proportionate share of the Contractor’s

overhead costs, other indirect costs, and anticipated profit. An offer must be mathematically and materially

balanced. A “mathematically unbalanced offer” is an offer containing lump sum or unit price items that do

not include reasonable labor, equipment, and material costs plus a reasonable proportionate share of the

Contractor’s overhead costs, other indirect costs, and anticipated profit. A mathematically unbalanced offer

typically contains token prices (i.e. $1 prices), front loadings, or prices with large variations from the

engineer’s estimate. A “materially unbalanced offer” is a mathematically unbalanced offer that will not

result in the lowest ultimate cost to the Division.

During the Division’s initial review of offers, if the Division finds an offer may be mathematically

unbalanced, the Contractor may be required to submit proof of the mathematically unbalanced line items’

proposed cost within 24 hours after notification from the Division. At a minimum, a Contractor may be

required to submit copies of all material/rental quotes, intended labor costs (hours/rates), and contract

agreements with subcontractors to support their offer. If the Contractor fails to submit the required proof,

the Contractor’s offer shall be deemed withdrawn from consideration. The Division shall evaluate the

documentation and may verify quotes with vendors. After a review of the documentation, the Division will

reject any offer it determines is mathematically and materially unbalanced.

A Contractor shall maintain an up-to-date schedule on file with the Division that sets forth dates by which

the Contractor will plug each well that the Division previously awarded to the Contractor. A Contractor

shall update their work schedule as often as necessary to maintain a current schedule with the Division. To

be awarded new contracts, the Contractor must be able to complete all previously awarded work within the

due dates set in each contract with the Division. Upon request, a Contractor shall provide an up-to-date

schedule to the Division that reflects when all awarded work will be completed.

Please note that a Contractor’s offer must be submitted online through OhioBuys.

1. Refer to the Scope of Work posted in OhioBuys with this solicitation.

2. Only Contractors who are pre-qualified to offer this service on an existing State Contract

beginning with CSP900-922 (DAS Index No. MAC110) may respond to this solicitation. All

CSP900922 Contract Terms & Conditions apply to this solicitation. No additional terms and

conditions will be accepted. The Division will reject Offers from any Contractor that is not pre-

qualified.

3. Completion of the grid is required and will be considered the response for evaluation. No outside

or additional documentation will be considered.

4. Fixed prices will be automatically added to Contractor’s proposals when shown. Contractors are

not to enter pricing for fixed price items.

5. Confirm that your bid has been successfully imported into OhioBuys for all items before

submitting. Incomplete bids and/or attachments will not be evaluated.

6. The most recent bid submitted in OhioBuys will be the bid that is evaluated, all prior bids

submitted in the same solicitation will not be evaluated.

PART 7: WITHDRWAL OF OFFERS

at the location where the Offers are received, to withdraw its offer. The request to withdraw the Offer must

be signed by the person who executed the Offer.

PART 8: EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM

The effective date of this Project is the date of the Letter to Proceed that is sent to the Contractor. The

Contractor must start work at the project site within three (3) months of the end of the contract and the

Contractor shall continue diligently working toward the completion of the project once work has

commenced. The Project must be completed five (5) months after the effective date or by October 31,

2024, whichever is sooner. If the Project terminates on October 31, 2024 and the Project is not completed,

the Scope of Work may be renewed on the same terms if the Division sends written notice to the Contractor.

Failure to complete work by the contract due dates may result in the suspension or termination of the

contract and may result in the Division pursuing the Suspension and Termination and/or the Contract

Remedies sections defined in the MAC 110 contract.

PART 9: TERMINATION AT WILL

The Division may terminate this Scope of Work without cause. Any payment due to the Contractor at the

time of termination by the Division shall be paid to the Contractor on a pro rata basis.

PART 10: RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN COMPONENTS OF THE SCOPE OF WORK

This Scope of Work includes drawings that are duplicates of drawings on file with the Division. The Scope

of Work documents are complementary. All sections of the Scope of Work are binding. The titles and

headings in the Scope of Work are for reference and in no way affect the interpretation of the provisions of

the Scope of Work. Further, if any part of this Scope of Work is found to be unenforceable, no such event

will affect the enforceability or applicability of any other part of the Scope of Work.

If a conflict between the drawings and the specifications arises, the Contractor must notify the Division. In

the event of a conflict of any provision in the Scope of Work the order of priority within the Scope of Work

is as follows: Drawings, Detailed Specifications, General Specifications, Plugging Plan, and Sequence of

Work.
