The contractor must maintain the plantings and fencing during a 180-day warranty period and comply with approved plant lists, contract drawings, technical specifications, environmental permits, and applicable beach-access and business-license requirements. Lot 2 includes screening approximately 4,000 cubic yards of beach sand and removing and legally disposing of asphalt, concrete, gravel, wood, metal, plastic, and other prohibited debris across approximately 24,004 square yards in designated work areas. Work must minimize disturbance to dune habitat, comply with marine turtle and shorebird protections, and include erosion controls, lawful off-island disposal, public-safety measures, and restoration of disturbed areas. The project must be substantially completed within 150 calendar days after written notice to proceed and finally completed within 180 calendar days. Bidders may submit pricing by lot or for all work.
