sredden@joplinglobe.com CARTHAGE, Mo. — Contracts for paving work and a creek bank-stabilization project were awarded in action Tuesday by the Jasper County Commission. Blevins Asphalt Construction, with a bid of $1,794,520, received the contract to overlay county roads, according to Jim Honey, Eastern District associate commissioner. Honey, who oversees county highway department operations, said the bid was based on the use of about 40 tons of asphalt. He said Blevins also won two contracts for supplying asphalt material used in road work by county crews, while four other contracts went to Swift Construction Co. The contracts are based on the price of asphalt picked up by county crews at the companies’ production sites, he said. He said a bid to put down chip and seal material is still under review. In other action Tuesday, the commission awarded a contract to Garrin Excavating for a bank stabilization project on White Oak Creek at County Road 40 south of Avilla. The firm submitted a bid of $69,900 on the project recommended by the National Resources Conservation Service, a division of the federal Department of Agriculture. Three-fourths of project costs will be paid by federal funds, with the remainder to be shared by affected landowners. Plans for another NRCS project were outlined by Derik Ball, of the NRCS office in Carthage. Ball presented preliminary specifications on a debris removal project on Blackberry Creek between County Road 270 and County Road 280, south of Baseline Road. The site will be shown to potential contractors Nov. 3. In other matters, it was noted that county commissioners from counties throughout Southwest Missouri will gather today for a regional meeting in Mount Vernon. H1N1 vaccine Commissioners also heard a report from Tony Moehr, director of the Jasper County Health Department, who said the department had begun receiving deliveries of H1N1 vaccine.
