Information
Request/Subject
Request to Advertise Invitation for Bids (IFB) No. 052422-Granite Crushing to One-Inch Minus.
Background Information
The Forest Service 4-Mile Pit is Gila County's source for decomposed granite in the Young area. It is used for road surfacing on County maintained roads. It is a long-distance to other rock sources. Normally the Consolidated Roads Division pulls the material down with a dozer or loader and screens it through a manual 3-inch minus screen to obtain the rock.
Evaluation
Gila County management believes the Gila County Roads Division should be using a one-inch minus for road surfacing on the Young road, which will entail 2 types of crushers and an outside contractor to provide that product.

Portable crushing in Arizona is at a premium as most companies do not find it lucrative with all of the regulations imposed by the Environmental Protection Agency and Mine Safety and Health Administration. Public Works is hoping to attract at least one bidder to help us obtain the one-inch minus rock from the 4-Mile pit.
Conclusion
Public Works requests to advertise for the crushing of approximately 20,000 tons of one-inch minus decomposed granite requested for road surfacing in northern Gila County.
Recommendation
The Public Works Department Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors authorizes the advertisement of IFB No. 052422 for granite crushing to one-Inch minus at the 4-Mile Pit.
Suggested Motion
Information/Discussion/Action to authorize the advertisement of Invitation for Bids No. 052422-Granite Crushing to One-Inch Minus at the 4-Mile Pit in northern Gila County. (Steve Sanders)
