- Description
- Construction project entitled: Mill Creek Needle Gate Replacement. Construction magnitude is estimated to be between $100,000 and $250,000. Payment bonds will be required. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this project is 237990 and the associated small business size standard is $36,500,000. Solicitation is 100% Total Small Business. Summary of Scope of Work The USACE Walla Walla District has a requirement at the Division Works of the Mill Creek Project. The existing needle gates are made of wooden slats laid vertically at an angle and secured in place against the road bridge. There is currently an electrical conduit that is mounted under the bridge that passes through a hole in the needle gates. An amount of silt and debris has accumulated in the basin downstream of the needle gates and accompanying radial gate. The replacement effort involves removal and disposal offsite of the existing wooden slats, and removal and disposal offsite of up to 20 cubic yards of material from the downstream basin. After the debris is removed, the banks immediately adjacent to the structure would be re-graded to 2:1 slope to prevent erosion. Three new runs of electrical conduit will be installed under the road (approximately 60 feet), with one run being used to re-route the existing electrical power line that currently routes under the bridge. The new electrical power line will be reconnected on both ends. The needle gates will be replaced with three new precast concrete panels at one foot thick, one of which is no larger than 16 feet by 8 feet, the other two of which are no larger than 6 feet by 8 feet. The panels will be lifted into place vertically and secured at top and bottom. The larger panel will be grouted in place to create a watertight seal, while the smaller panels will have rubber seals. A new painted steel bulkhead made of 3x3x1/4" HSS tubing and 1/4" skin plate will be fabricated and mounted between the two smaller concrete panels. The steel bulkhead will be no larger than 5 feet by 8 feet, and will be painted with a vinyl paint system for submerged conditions. The steel bulkhead will contain a combination sluice and weir gate, with the weir gate made of two telescoping leaves. The seals and rub-blocks will be made of UHMW, and the combination sluice and weir gate will be made of stainless steel. The combination gate will cover an opening no larger than 2 feet by 5 feet, and will have two manual bevel operators with hand-wheels, one to control the sluice section, and one to control the weir leaves. The steel bulkhead with the assembled and mounted combination gate will be lifted into place vertically and secured at top and bottom and to the concrete panels on both sides.
