- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Pittsburgh District, has a need of a contract for Gate Operating Machinery Replacement at the Allegheny River Basin, East Branch Lake project located on the Clarion River in Jones Township, in northeastern Elk County, Pennsylvania. The Clarion River is 7.3 miles upstream from its junction with the West Branch of the Clarion River at Johnsonburg, PA. East Branch Dam is an earthen embankment dam with a reinforced concrete water intake tower (Dam Control Tower) located within the reservoir which controls the dam operating gates. The gate machinery is located within the intake tower on the operating floor level, one level above the dam service bridge that accesses the intake tower. The dam service bridge can be used for personnel access to the intake tower, but a floating plant will be needed in order to remove and replace the dam gate operating machinery. The work will involve the removal of three sets of the existing gate operating machinery by use of a floating plant with crane followed by the installation of new gate operating machinery through a roof hatch installed in the roof of the Dam Control Tower at the East Branch Dam, Wilcox, Pennsylvania. The Contractor shall fabricate and install the new gate operating machinery, roof access hatch, replace the roof drains and new EPDM roof on the existing Control Tower. The Contractor shall fabricate and install new link bars and pins between the gate operating machinery and the roller gates. Two sets of the gate operating machinery are stationary and one set is mobile and mounted on crane rails to service both sluices. The Contractor will also replace the crane rails. The new gate machinery will be designed and manufactured to by the Contractor to fit within the site constraints, have an approximate 44 ton hoisting capacity and must weigh less than 19 tons. The Contractor shall fabricate and replace existing floor bar grating and floor hatches within the Control Tower. To facilitate access to the reservoir, the contractor may construct and remove a temporary work platform in the boat launch area to mobilize / demobilize the floating plant. The Contractor will be provided an area on project grounds in the boat launch parking area for storage, parking for worker's vehicles and access to the existing boat launch ramp. Materials to be removed will consist of the existing gate operating machinery, electrical controls, roofing materials, concrete, miscellaneous metals, and small amount of roof drain piping. Materials will be recycled or disposed of at a properly permitted licensed disposal facility. Disposal of materials removed during the performance of the work will be off site and will be the Contractor's responsibility. In order to maintain dam gate operations, only one gate can be removed from service at a time. The contract will be structured to include a base contract and three awardable options. It is anticipated the base contract will include replacement on one gate machinery and related features, installation of the roof hatch, new roof and the construction of the temporary work platform. The first and second awardable option will include replacement on the one gate machinery and related features. The third awardable option will include the removal of the temporary work platform. This procurement is 100% small business set-aside. The NAICS Code is 237990, and a small business size standard of $36.5 M. All responsible bidders are encouraged to participate.
