- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Northwestern Division, Portland District (CENWP) is soliciting a two-phase DESIGN-BUILD contract for the upgrade of The Dalles Gate Repair Pit. The proposed project will be a competitive, firm-fixed price (FFP) contract. The requirement is to upgrade The Dalles Lock and Dam Gate Repair Pit located approximately 2 miles east of the city of The Dalles, Oregon. The existing gate repair pit does not provide efficient working conditions for the maintenance of gates and bulkheads. While the facility is now usable to a limited degree, the inefficiency and potential hazards of the facility cause unnecessary risks to worker safety, and increase maintenance labor hours more than necessary. The upgrade will bring the gate repair pit into full compliance with EM 385-1-1 requirements, and provide efficient systems and access to reduce maintenance labor. The gate repair pit at The Dalles Powerhouse is used for the maintenance for five different types of gates and bulkheads, which can measure 23 feet wide by 45 feet tall. These specific types are intake gates, intake bulkheads, fish turbine bulkheads, fish turbine gates, and station service bulkheads. The District conducts routine and non-routine maintenance in the gate repair pit, including but not limited to replacing seals and anodes, replacing corroded section joint bolts, replacing the lifting eyes. Additional work is occasionally required to meet modified criteria, or to restore coatings and/or fasteners. The proposed project consists of a design-build construction process. The proposed project is the design and construction of renovation upgrades to an existing gate repair pit. The existing concrete gate repair pit is located within a large dam structure and serves as the repair location for multiple styles of gates. The gate repair pit is approximately 41 feet wide, 67 feet tall, and 15 feet deep. There are seven elevated walkway levels horizontally outlining the inside of the gate repair pit. The elevated walkway levels are spaced vertically approximately seven and half feet apart. Gates are placed into the gate repair pit through deck hatches located in the ceiling of the gate repair pit. The elevated walkways provide workers access to all levels and sides of the gate being repaired. Access to the elevated walkways is by ladders attached vertically to the wall. The proposed project requires the renovation/ replacement of the existing walkways to meet horizontal clearance distances between the walkways and style of gate being repaired. The walkways will need to be adjustable to accommodate different size gates while still maintaining safe clearances. The ladders for accessing the elevated walkways need to be redesigned. The renovation upgrades also include horizontal stabilization of the gates, while in the gate repair pit, to withstand earthquake loads. Additionally, the proposed project requires egress and access improvements, upgrades to hoisting, lighting, power, redesign of ceiling deck hatches, and the compressed air and welding system. Improvements to the heating and ventilation system will be required under the proposed project. TYPE OF CONTRACT AND NAICS: This RFP will for one (1) Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract.
