The objective of the project is to protect Bay Division Pipeline Nos. 3 and 4 from future loads imparted by Union Pacific Railroad's proposed new tracks by slip lining the pipelines with welded steel pipe at the railroad crossing at Lafayette Street in Santa Clara. The work is to be performed in Santa Clara County, California. ESTIMATED COST between $6,500,000 and $7,000,000 Bid discounts may be applied as per San Francisco Administrative Code Chapter 14B. The Local Business Enterprise (LBE) subcontracting requirement is 11.00%. The LBE subcontracting requirement can only be met with certified San Francisco Micro and Small-LBEs and SFPUC Micro & Small-LBEs. The LBE subcontractor participation requirement for this Contract is below 20%, as the work is highly specialized because the main scope of work is to procure/fabricate large diameter steel pipe and slipline two large diameter pipelines. Prime and Joint Venture level LBE participation cannot be counted towards meeting any of the LBE subcontracting requirement(s). LBE subcontractors must be certified within the scope of work they are being listed to perform.
