- Description
- Synopsis of the proposed dredging - Red Hook Flats Anchorage, New York Harbor, Federal Navigation Project The New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) proposes to perform maintenance dredging of the Red Hook Flats Anchorage, New York Harbor, Federal Navigation Project. The sediment from this project was tested and meets the criteria for remediation material at the Historic Area Remediation Site (HARS) and is therefore proposed to be placed at the HARS. The proposed maintenance dredging would remove up to approximately 793,000 cubic yards of sediment (approximately 104,000 cubic yards as basic work, and the remaining 689,000 cubic yards as options), subject to the availability of funds. Dredging in the project work areas will be required to depths of 35, 40, and 45 feet below Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) with 2 feet allowable over-depth, in their respective reaches. The proposed work in Red Hook Flats Anchorage can be performed by a large mechanical dredge, hopper dredge, or similar plant. The proposed work may be required to be performed with a large mechanical dredge having a closed environmental clamshell bucket, but can also be performed with a hopper dredge if allowed by the state water quality certificate. Additionally, multiple barges and tug boats may be needed to perform the work during dredging, transport and placement of the dredged material. This solicitation is subject to FAR Part 14 sealed bidding procedures and is UNRESTRICTED and open to all prospective bidders. All bids must be received on time to be considered. The IFB will be evaluated based on price with award being made to the lowest responsible bidder. The applicable NAICS Code is 237990 and the small business standard size is $20.0 million. The contractor will be required to commence work within five (5) calendar days after the date of receipt of the Notice to Proceed. The estimated range for this project is $7,500,000 and $12,500,000. The contractor will be required to prosecute said work diligently and to complete the basic work ready for use not later than thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt by him of the notice to proceed for the basic work. There are two (2) options to the contract. If the options are exercised, their performance periods will be consecutive. The time for contract completion of each option will be determined by allowing a rate of one calendar day for each 6,000 cubic yards removed. The contractor is required to maintain an integrated production of at least 6,000 cubic yards per calendar day. Large business concerns must submit as part of their bid a subcontracting plan for this project in accordance with FAR Clause 52.219-8 and FAR Clause 52.219-9.
