The purpose of this Sources Sought Notice is to identify qualified and experienced small and large businesses that are interested in and capable of performing the work described herein. This notice is posted as a market research tool only. The Government will utilize this information in determining an acquisition strategy.

This Sources Sought Notice is for firms with a North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 237990 - Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. Description of Work: The Norfolk District's Corps of Engineers is seeking qualified and experienced firms capable of performing site improvements at the Craney Island Dredged Material Management Area (CIDMMA), Portsmouth, Virginia. Site improvements include: 1) the partial demolition of a 100' wide x 30' tall x 20' thick steel and concrete Spillbox #2 that is embedded in the side of a compacted soil dike to provide drainage for a dredging sediment pond out to Norfolk Bay; and 2) the construction of a new 60' wide x 60' deep x 32' tall free-standing steel framework Spillbox #2 which is located 400' feet from the top of the dike into the dredging sediment pond plus four HDPE drainage pipelines that travel through the dike to empty into Norfolk Bay. Partial demolition of Spillbox #2 includes the removal and backfill of four 36" CMT pipelines that run from the Spillbox and are buried across the earth dike and drain out to the Bay; removal of some of some the Spillbox's steel scaffolding and sealing of the pipe four openings; and backfilling the pond side of the Spillbox to block pond drainage. Construction of the new free-standing Spillbox includes: installation of four 36" HDPE drainage pipes from the Spillbox through the dike and out to the Bay including excavation and backfill; construction of a permanent access road and renovation of a temporary access road out to the new spillbox site; construction of a concrete foundation pad supported with site and purchased materials; and fabrication and installation of a free-standing steel framework Spillbox. At both locations, the four pipelines extending from the existing spillbox and the four new pipes extending from the new spillbox will core through a 10' tall stacked rock wall near Norfolk Bay that will require renovation to remove the existing pipeline and then install the new pipeline at a new location. Construction of the new free-standing Spillbox in the sediment pond will be in marsh-like conditions. Construction techniques and equipment must accommodate soft and wet subsurface and fill soil conditions which are highly susceptibility to rapid and long-term settlements under instantaneous and sustained loading conditions. All fill material for dike renovations and new road and foundations pad work will be government supplied from on-site borrow sources. Rock and specialty backfill will be purchased by the contractor off-site. Dike renovations for the existing and new pipelines will require clearing and grubbing of the areas before excavation work can begin; and hydroseeding after the work is completed. The existing Spillbox #2 must continue functioning until the new Spillbox #2 is fully functional and can replace it, so the work must be divided into two sequential phases.
