- Description
- The New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) proposes to perform maintenance dredging of portions of the New York and New Jersey Channels, Ward Point Bend, NY & NJ Federal Navigation Project. The dredged material would be placed at the Historic Area Remediation Site (HARS), 5 miles east of Sandy Hook, New Jersey. The proposed maintenance dredging would remove approximately 200,000 cubic yards (CY) of selected critical shoals from the Ward Point Bend Reaches of New York and New Jersey Channels. Dredging in these channels would be required to a depth of -35 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) plus 2 foot allowable overdepth. The dredged material is expected to consist primarily of silt, sand and clay. Due to expected restrictions in the Water Quality Certificate, the proposed work will likely require using a mechanical dredge with a clamshell environmental bucket. Additional, multiple ocean-going barges and tug boats will be needed to perform the work during the dredging, transportation, and placement operations. The dredged material will be required to meet all federal, state, and local criteria of the government agencies with jurisdiction at the dredging and placement sites. Once the contract is awarded, the contractor will be required to commence work within five (5) calendar days after receipt of the Notice to Proceed. The contractor is required to maintain a production rate of at least 8,000 cubic yards per calendar day for the dredging, transportation, and final placement of the material. The presence of dredging equipment in the channel will impact ship traffic and it is necessary to maintain this production rate while minimizing the duration of this impact. There are no options to the contract. The work is estimated to cost between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. It is the intention of the government to award in August 2018 and the proposed work is anticipated to take place between August and December 2018. Liquidated damages of $1,770.00 per calendar day of delay will be assessed to the contractor until all work under the contract is accepted as complete. The Plans and Specifications will be posted electronically via the Federal Business Opportunities website at www.fbo.gov. Any and all amendments shall be likewise posted. Hard copies will not be available. It is the contractor's responsibility to monitor the FedBizOpps website for the Plans and Specs, and any amendments. Bidders are required to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) www.sam.gov. Award will be made to the lowest responsible bidder. The bid opening will be held at 26 Federal Plaza, New York, NY; the exact location will be included in the solicitation. All questions must be submitted in writing via email, to the POC indicated herein. The media selected for issuance of Synopsis/Solicitation and amendments shall solely be at the discretion of the Government; accordingly, the media utilized for this project shall be the internet.
