Moline Riverfront building demolition, site work, and environmental remediation

The City of Moline is seeking a contractor for demolition and environmental site work at its Moline Riverfront redevelopment site. - Government buyer: City of Moline, Illinois; Public Works Department. The inspection report identifies Denver Schmitt as Director of Public Works. - Project location: 1994 Montgomery Drive, Moline, Illinois. - Requested work: Demolish designated buildings, building components, and site improvements; remove and dispose of debris; perform site grading, restoration, and erosion control; install and maintain project security fencing; and address contaminated soil and a potential underground storage tank. Quantities are not specified. - Building and site scope: Plans cover full and selective demolition, including designated roofs, slabs, walls, structural components, foundations, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing items. Work also includes designated pavement, sidewalks, curbs, utilities, and trees. Items identified to remain must be protected. Some paint removal is specified as lead-aware work. - Environmental findings and requirements: The Spiegel building has approximately 120 ballasts that should be managed as PCB-containing waste, including inaccessible or damaged ballasts. Approximately 700 Kone building ballasts were reported as not containing PCBs. Containerized materials include sulfuric acid, hydraulic oil, corrosion inhibitor, and utility chemicals; standing basement water and floating containers require profiling and management before redevelopment. The bid documents also reference asbestos, lead-based paint, geotechnical, and environmental reports; the supplied information does not detail all findings. Remediation specifications for contaminated soils and the potential underground storage tank are to follow by addendum. - Named vendor: EnviroNET performed the ballast and containerized-materials inspection. No demolition contractor or other prospective bidder is identified. - OEMs and products: No OEMs, product manufacturers, part numbers, or fixed product quantities are identified; this is primarily a construction-services opportunity. - Notable requirements: A mandatory on-site pre-bid meeting is identified. The contractor must protect the public, utilities, and structures designated to remain, maintain project security fencing, and meet the City’s responsible-bidder and insurance requirements, including workers’ compensation, general and auto liability, umbrella/excess liability, property damage coverage, and naming the City as an additional insured.
