Introduction
Beaufort County recognizes that the South Carolina General Assembly, in South Carolina Code of Laws Section 11-35-5210*, has declared that businesses owned and operated by minority persons have been historically restricted from full participation in our free enterprise system to a degree disproportionate to other businesses; and that it is in the state’s best interest to assist minority-owned businesses to develop fully as a part of the state’s policies and programs which are designed to promote balanced economic and community growth throughout the state. Therefore, Beaufort County wishes to ensure that those businesses owned and operated by minorities are afforded the opportunity to fully participate in its overall procurement process for goods and services. Further, Beaufort County seeks to ensure that small businesses are likewise afforded the same participation opportunity as minority businesses. Consequently, attention of all bidders and proposers is called to contract conditions contained herein pertaining to Beaufort County’s “Small and Minority Business Participation Program”, as prescribed in the Beaufort County Code of Ordinances Section 2-537.2.
Definitions
Small Business means a for-profit concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in the field of operation in which it is bidding on government contracts, and qualified as a small business under the criteria and size standards in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 13, Part 121, as amended. Beaufort County refers to these businesses as Small Business Enterprises or “SBE”.
Minority Business means a concern at least fifty-one percent (51%) owned by a person determined to be socially and economically disadvantaged. Socially disadvantaged means those persons who have been subject to racial or ethnic prejudice or cultural bias because of their identification as members of a certain group without regard to their individual qualities. Such groups include, but are not limited to, Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans (including American Indians, Eskimos, Aleuts and Native Hawaiians), Asian Pacific Americans, women and other minorities to be designated by the Beaufort County Council. Economically disadvantaged means those socially disadvantaged persons whose ability to compete in the free enterprise system has been impaired due to diminished capital and credit opportunities as compared to others in the same business area that are not socially disadvantaged. Beaufort County refers to minority businesses as Minority Business Enterprises or “MBE”.
Small and Minority Business Enterprises will be abbreviated as “S/MBE”.
Provisions
The successful bidder or proposer, hereafter referred to as “Contractor”, is required to (1) make specific Pre-Award “Good Faith Efforts” to recruit S/MBE and (2) Post-Award “Compliance Efforts” of its labors to utilize S/MBE, unless self-performing one hundred percent (100%) of the contract work. Falsification of any pre-award or post-award documents will be considered a serious breach of public trust and funds.
* SOUTH CAROLINA CODE OF LAWS, CHAPTER 35 “SOUTH CAROLINA CONSOLIDATED PROCUREMENT CODE, SUBARTICLE 1 “ASSISTANCE TO MINORITY BUSINESSES”
The successful Contractor is required to fulfill any Small and Minority Business Enterprise (S/MBE) commitments made in conjunction with the “Pre-Award Good Faith Efforts”, unless good cause is demonstrated for any failure to fulfill such commitment.
If the Contractor intends to make any substitutions for any reasons, the Beaufort County Compliance Office must be notified in writing within ten (10) business days for discussion and approval. No Contractor shall enter into an agreement with any S/MBE that would in any manner limit the S/MBE from selling or acting as a subcontractor to any other party.
Beaufort County shall have the right to inspect the Contractor’s records related to activity and expenditures to S/MBE utilized on its projects, to include related contracts/purchase orders and payment records, such as cancelled check copies. Further, designated Beaufort County personnel are permitted access to all work sites. Contractors and their staff should take measures to cooperate fully with all Beaufort County staff, including, but not limited to the Procurement Services Director and Compliance Officer.
“Post-Award Compliance Efforts” require the Contractor to not only provide monthly reports regarding activity and expenditures to S/MBE, but also to maintain related records throughout the life of the project regarding its efforts to comply with the Small and Minority Business Participation Program. The “Monthly Compliance Status Report” must be submitted to the Compliance Office until the project ends, by the fifth (5th) day, reflecting the activity of the previous month.
After the County receives a monthly status report marked as “final”, the Contractor will be issued an affidavit to certify totals regarding S/MBE usage throughout the life of the project.
All questions regarding “Post-Award Compliance Efforts” should be directed to the Compliance Office vie e-mail at dthomas@bcgov.net or (843) 255-2304.

with a fiber-bristle brush in a direction transverse to that of main traffic
3.6 CONCRETE CURING AND PROTECTION
A. General
1. Freshly placed concrete shall be protected from premature drying and cold or hot temperature
and shall be maintained without drying at a relatively constant temperature for the period of time
necessary for hydration of cement and proper hardening of concrete.
2. Initial curing shall start as soon as free water has disappeared from surface of concrete after
placing and finishing. Concrete shall be kept moist for minimum 72 hours.
3. Final curing shall immediately follow initial curing and before concrete has dried. Final curing shall
continue until cumulative number of hours or fraction thereof (not necessarily consecutive) during
which temperature of air in contact with the concrete is above 50 degrees F has totaled 168
hours. Rapid drying at end of final curing period shall be prevented.
B. Curing Methods
1. Curing shall be accomplished by moist curing, by moisture-retaining cover curing, and by
combinations thereof, as specified.
2. Moist curing shall be accomplished by any of the following methods:
a. Keeping surface of concrete wet by covering with water
b. Continuous water spraying
c. Covering concrete surface with specified absorptive cover for curing concrete saturated
with water and keeping absorptive cover wet by water spraying or intermittent hosing.
Absorptive cover shall be placed to provide coverage of concrete surfaces and edges with
a slight overlap over adjacent absorptive covers.
3. Moisture-cover curing:
a. Moisture-retaining cover curing shall be accomplished by covering concrete surfaces with
specified moisture-retaining cover for curing concrete. Cover shall be placed directly on
concrete in widest practical width, with sides and ends lapped at least 75 millimeters (3
inches). Cover shall be weighted to prevent displacement; tears or holes appearing during
curing period shall be immediately repaired by patching with pressuresensitive,
waterproof tape or other approved method.
C. Temperature of Concrete During Curing
1. When temperature of atmosphere is 40 degrees F and below, temperature of concrete shall
be maintained at not less than 55 degrees F throughout concrete curing period. When
necessary, arrangements shall be made before start of concrete placing for heating,
covering, insulation, or housing as required to
maintain·specifiedtemperatureandmoistureconditionsforconcreteduringcuring period.
2. When the temperature of atmosphere is 80 degrees F and above or during other climatic
conditions which will cause too rapid drying of concrete, arrangements shall be made before
start of concrete placing for installation of wind breaks, of shading, and for fog spraying, wet
sprinkling, or moisture-retaining covering of light color as required to protect concrete during
curing period.
3. Changes in temperature of concrete shall be uniform and shall not exceed 5
degrees F in any 1 hour nor 50 degrees F in any 24-hour period.
D. Protection After Curing
1. Finished concrete surfaces shall be protected from damage by construction operations.

Q (Concrete Piles Design): My supplier has the following questions about the pile design: At a minimum, we would need the following to produce the 16" Prestress Concrete Piles - Concrete strength (Final) Concrete strength (Release) Number of strands, size of strands and strand pattern Spiral size and spacing Any CNI or Silica Fume required? Any pile tips required?
A: The minimum final concrete strength for the prestressed mooring piles shall be 5000 psi per the project specifications. A CNI corrosion inhibiting admixture is preferred. No pile tips are required. However, all other details shall be determined by the precast manufacturer so that the design satisfies the load demands shown on sheet S2. Supporting calculations and shop drawings must be submitted to the EOR for approval. For past projects such as the Alljoy Landing upgrades, the contractor submitted the precaster’s standard “high moment fender pile for floating docks” cut sheet with supporting calculations. This submittal was also stamped by a SC professional engineer. This was acceptable for that project would be acceptable for Station Creek.
SLED stands for State, Local, and Education. These are solicitations issued by state governments, counties, cities, school districts, utilities, and higher education institutions — as opposed to federal agencies.
