- Description
- FOR INFORMATION ONLY: This Pre-Solicitation Notice is ONLY A NOTIFICATION that a solicitation is anticipated and forthcoming. All questions regarding this Pre-Solicitation notice should be submitted in writing via email to Point of Contact(s) indicated below. Construction Project: Libby Dam Intake Crane Replacement, Libby, MT. Libby Dam is located on the Kootenai River, a tributary of the Columbia River and located near the town of Libby, Montana. The existing intake crane was designed and fabricated by Fulton Shipyard and installed in 1973. The crane has 3 hoists, each on independently operated trolleys, and performs the multiple functions described below. Main Hoist � The 75 ton main hoist is used to deploy the penstock gates for emergency closure. The hoist has a permanently installed, 2 part lifting beam.� The main hoist of the crane is unique in that as the load is lowered in the slot, the lifting beam engages a ledge and splits in half.� This doubles the reeving from 8 to 16 parts and effectively doubles the load capacity.�� A total load of 150 tons can be placed on the lifting beam without exceeding the rated load of the crane. Auxiliary (Aux) Hoist � The 60 ton auxiliary hoist is used to deploy the sluice gate for emergency closure, place penstock bulkheads, and lift various hatch covers. Trash Rack Hoist � The 10 ton trash rack hoist, is rated 10 tons, is used to remove the trash racks and lift various covers Table 4, below summarizes the existing crane configuration: Table 4.

The new crane will have 3 hoists, located on 2 trolleys at two different levels.� The main hoist trolley will support the 100-ton Main Hoist.� The Aux and Trash trolley will support the 70-ton Aux Hoist and 15-ton Trash Rack Hoist. Hoist functions are largely identical to existing. The new crane will have an onboard emergency generator fueled by liquid propane. Design, fabricate, transport to site, and test five new lifting beams for the new intake gantry crane Main Hoist Lifting Beam Sluiceway Emergency Closure Gate Lifting Beam Penstock Bulkhead Lifting Beam Penstock Trash Rack Lifting Beam Selective Withdrawal Lifting Beam Remove existing gantry crane and lifting devices from site.
