Where to send responses: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 201 North Third Avenue ATTN: Contracting/Nona Fincher Walla Walla, WA 99362 Phone: (509) 527-7220 Fax: (509) 527-7802 E-mail: Nona.R.Fincher@usace.army.mil Response deadline: October 26, 2017 at 3:00 p.m. (Pacific Time Zone) Place of Performance: Work will be performed in the area between Lower Granite Reservoir (near Lewiston, ID) and on the Columbia River (near Portland, OR). Description of the Requirement: Provide four towboats, each staffed with crews for 24-hour per day operation, to transport Government-owned fish barges from Lower Granite Juvenile Fish Facility to fish release areas below Bonneville Dam. Stops will be made at Little Goose and Lower Monumental dams to load additional fish or to pick up an additional fish barge for transport to the release site. The initiation of barging operations is based on runoff projections. During years when runoff is forecasted to be near or above normal or average runoff, barging of fish could begin as late as May 1. During low flow or drought years, barging of fish may begin as early as 21 April. Transporting of fish by barge from Snake River dams will therefore begin sometime between April 21 and May 1, as directed by the Contracting Officer or Contracting Officer's Representative, and should last until approximately mid-August. The Contractor will routinely transport a loaded fish barge from Lower Granite Dam, stop and pick up a loaded fish barge at Little Goose Dam, and then continue on the trip downstream to the release site. During the 2018 transport season and possibly the 2019 transport season, fish transportation during the month of May may take place once per day for up to 31 barge trips. From June through mid-August fish transportation would take place every other day for up to 40 barge trips. In addition, during the 2018 transport season and possibly the 2019 transport season, up to 4 barge trips may take place once per week during the month of April in support of fish research.
