Hot-Mix Asphalt Patching FY 2022 (May 1, 2021 – April 30, 2022)

The Rock River Water Reclamation District solicited competitive bids for a fiscal‑year‑long hot‑mix asphalt patching program covering a variety of repair thicknesses (2‑, 4‑, and 6‑inch) across its service area. The work includes asphalt removal, surface overlay, aggregate base course placement, supplemental dust control, and all required traffic‑control and quality‑control testing. Bids are evaluated on unit‑price rates per square yard, with strict completion windows (≤ 3 days for patches ≤ 100 SY, ≤ 7 days for larger patches) and a $100 per day liquidated‑damage penalty. The contract requires performance and labor‑&‑material bonds, extensive insurance coverage, and compliance with Illinois prevailing‑wage, safety, and environmental statutes. The award went to Stenstrom Excavation & Blacktop Group, which must provide the stipulated bonds, insurance, and documentation to receive payment on a monthly invoicing schedule.
