Description

The Bureau of Reclamation intends to issue a Request for Proposal for a firm-fixed price construction contract to perform construction work at Stony Gorge Dam. Stony Gorge Dam and Reservoir are part of the Orland Project in Northern California. The dam is located on Stony Creek, about 20 miles west of Willows, California in Glenn County. The dam was completed in 1928, with modifications performed in 1985-1986. Stony Gorge is an ambursen-type dam comprised of 46 bays of slab and buttress construction, with buttresses spaced on 18 feet centers. The dam has a structural height of 139 feet and crest length of 868 feet at crest elevation 847.0. Stony Gorge Dam is classified as a high-hazard facility due to the potential for downstream loss of life in the event of failure. The proposed construction work on Stony Gorge consists of a structural modification to address known seismic and hydrologic deficiencies of the dam. The work incorporates simply supported reinforced concrete diaphragm walls cast between the downstream buttress walls. Principal components of work: Diversion of Stony Creek and unwatering; Foundation cleanup; Surface preparation of buttresses for concrete placement; Performing ground penetrating radar survey of buttresses; Drilling holes for rock bolts, anchor bars, and end threaded reinforcing bars and grouting bars in place; Placing reinforced concrete diaphragm walls and struts; Metal Fabrications; Electrical - (1) Furnishing and installing electrical conduit, insulated conductors, and grounding system, (2) Furnishing and installing lighting system, and (3) Furnishing and installing distribution panel. The work will require the contractor to job fabricate special forms and material handling systems to meet the restricted access under the downstream portion of the dam. Some of the work will be performed under the existing spillway slab. This work has limited access. Other alternative means for material and equipment access include cutting holes in the reinforced spillway crest slab. The dam and associated land has limited work, staging and areas. The contractor will be required to meet various environmental restrictions during performance of the work. The upstream reservoir water surface will not be lowered for construction purposes. The dam crest right of the spillway control house is designed for overtopping. The top of active conservation storage in the reservoir is elevation 841.0. Release facilities at the dam include a spillway, outlet work and power plant. The power plant will remain in service during the performance of the work. The magnitude of this project is between $25,000,000.00 and $50,000,000.00. Period of Performance is 1,125 days. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation Clause 52.232-18 entitled "Availability of Funds", funds are not presently available for this contract. The Government's obligation under this contract is contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds. This is an unrestricted solicitation and all offers from responsible concerns will be considered.
