The purpose of this project is to construct four new asphalt blast pads with markings at Phoenix Deer Valley Airport. Work will include demolition and removal of two existing blast pads on Runway 7R/25L and construction of new blast pads at each end of that runway and Runway 7L/25R.

The selection was made using an Invitation for Bids procurement process set forth in section 34-201 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Two bids were received on May 31, 2023, and were sent to the Equal Opportunity Department for review to determine subcontractor eligibility and contractor responsiveness in demonstrating responsiveness to Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program requirements.
