- Description
- The New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) proposes to perform maintenance dredging of Raritan River, New Jersey Harbor Federal Navigation Project, with subsequent placement of the dredged material at a contractor furnished, state permitted, and Government approved upland disposal site. The proposed maintenance dredging would remove approximately 180,000 cubic yards of sediment to a depth of 24 feet (ft) below Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) with one (1) ft allowable overdepth. Based on expected restrictions to be found in the Water Quality Certificate, it is recommended that the work be performed by large mechanical dredge with a closed environmental bucket. Additionally, multiple barges and tug boats are needed to perform the work during dredging, dewatering, and unloading of the dredged material. The Contractor will be required to commence work within five (5) calendar days after the date of receipt by him the Notice to Proceed. The contractor will be required to prosecute said work diligently and to complete the basic work ready for use not later than eighty (80) calendar days after the receipt by him of the notice to proceed (NTP). The contractor is required to maintain an integrated production of at least 2,250 cubic yards per calendar day. The work is estimated to cost between $10,000,000 and $25,000,000. Plans and specifications for the subject project would be available on / about 24 January 2014, with bid opening on / about 26 February 2014. It is the intention of the Government to award in May 2014 and issue the NTP on / about 26 June 2014.
