The prospective Bidder shall provide a bid price on Tables 1-3 of the Bid Sheet as appropriate for the type of wetland mitigation bank credits. The prospective Bidder is not required to bid on both state and federal wetland mitigation bank credits or each identified drainage basin. Table 1 provides for a combined state and federal wetland mitigation bank credit bid price. Tables 2 and 3 provide for a separate state and federal bid price, respectively. The Vendor may enter bids on more than one of the tables but need not enter bids on all tables. The prospective Bidder is not required to be able to provide all the wetland mitigation bank credits needed. Due to the limited nature of wetland mitigation bank credits, the Department may award multiple bidders that can provide wetland mitigation bank credits meeting the Department’s needs. The Department will issue Purchase Orders to meet project needs to the lowest responsive bidder(s) with wetland mitigation bank credits available. At the time of the bid the Vendor must have approved mitigation banking instruments (permits) and have available federal and/or state mitigation bank credits for purchase that meet the requirements of this Invitation to Bid (ITB). A copy of the mitigation bank’s state and/or federal permits and a copy of the mitigation banks’ current state and/or federal ledger must be provided.
