- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), St. Paul, Minnesota District is seeking small business sources for the Pokegama Dam Slurry Trench project. The project consists of providing all materials, labor and equipment to install a cement - bentonite slurry trench in the left (east) and right (west) embankments of the Pokegama Dam located in Itasca County in Grand Rapids, MN. The slurry trenches will be a minimum of 2.5 feet wide, extend up to approximately 16 feet below ground, and 90 and 60 feet long, respectively, and will tie into existing bedrock. The slurry trenches will have a 3 foot thick cap of impervious fill on top of the slurry that will in turn be topped with topsoil and seed tying into the existing ground surface. Construction of the slurry trench will require relocation of electrical features that run to the dam and a gage house as well as restoration of concrete sidewalk and possibly bituminous pavement. In addition to the slurry trench construction, riprap will be placed at locations along the channel bank adjacent to the dam. We anticipate that construction will occur in late summer and fall of 2016. The Pokegama Dam is located on the Mississippi River, three miles upstream of Grand Rapids. Construction began at this dam site in 1882 and the dam was put into operation in 1885. The Corps of Engineers completed reconstruction in concrete in 1904. Pokegama is considered the distributing reservoir for the two upper reservoirs at Winnibigoshish and Leech, the water from which passes through this dam. The current control structure is 225 feet long and contains 13 8-foot sluiceways and one 12-foot long log sluice. In 2011, 7 leaf gates were installed and the slide gates in the remaining sluiceways were rebuilt. A leaf gate was also installed in the log sluice bay. The earth-filled embankments have timber diaphragms filled with puddled clays, and rest on the quartzite outcrop that occurs in this area. All work will require the Contractor to follow the procedures in the Army Corps of Engineers Safety Manual. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this project is 237990; Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction with a size standard of $36.5M. The estimated magnitude of construction is between $250,000 and $500,000; the contract will require 100% performance and payment bonds. Only those firms responding to this announcement by submitting the following information will be used in determining whether to set aside this requirement. In order for your response to this sources sought to be considered, you must provide all of the following: 1) A capability statement expressing your firm's interest in this requirement, describing your company and its capability to complete a project of this magnitude and complexity. Include a statement detailing any special qualifications and certifications, applicable to the scope of this project, held by your firm and/or in-house personnel or potential subcontractors. 2) A statement or list of your firm's current or past technical experience similar to or the same as the summary scope of work and construction magnitude for this requirement.
