Z -- ICE HARBOR SPILLWAY DEFLECTORS, PHASE II, FRANKLIN AND WALLA WALLA COUNTIES, WASHINGTON SOL DACW68-98-B-0009 DUE 050198 POC To order plans and specifications, contact Hope Vaca at 509/527-7220. To obtain technical information, contact John Boschker at 509/527-7541. To obtain solicitation administration information, contact Charlene Duncan at 509/527-7207. (Site Code DACW68) This solicitation is open to all businesses regardless of size. Modifications will be made to Ice Harbor Dam of (1) construction of navigation coffer cells; (2) construction of an extension to a training wall in the spillway stilling basin; and (3) construction of deflectors on two spillway bays (bays 1 and 10) at the dam. Underwater diving work will be required. Work consists of the following: (1) Navigation coffer cells are to be either steel sheet pile or precast concrete rings at the contractor's option. Dewatering of the work area is not required. Four cells will be located downstream from the navigation lock guide wall. Two cells will be located beneath overhead high voltage transmission lines which will limit boom length of cranes and height of equipment. Existing loose rock and debris on the river bed must be removed and some excavation of bedrock will be required to form a level base for each cell. Cells are 40 feet diameter and approximately 51 feet tall. Bottom 5 feet of each cell will be filled with concrete. Remainder of each cell is to be filled with rock fill from an existing source approximately 5 miles downstream from the dam. An electrical conductor will be installed that extends from the dam to the downstream cell to power a transformer and light to serve as a navigation aid. A fabricated steel ladder must be installed on the cell with the light. All work will be performed from floating plant. (2) The training wall extension will be constructed either of cast-in-place concrete or of precast concrete, at the contractor's option. Dewatering of the work area is not required. Underwater excavation of a reinforced concrete baffle pier from the stilling basin slab will be required. Baffle pier is approximately 8 x 8 x 8 feet. Training wall is approximately 70 feet long, 51 feet tall, and 10 feet wide. Training wall will be anchored in place with 2-1/2 inch diameter rock anchors. Fifty anchors are 120 feet long and 25 anchors are 100 feet long. All work will be performed from floating plant. (3) Spillway deflectors are located below the water line on the downstream side of the spillway bays. The contractor must design and install a dewatering bulkhead to dewater the work areas. Work includes drilling and grouting reinforcing steel anchor bars into the concrete, concrete removal, and furnishing and placing approximately 500 cy of reinforced concrete. Reinforcement consists of deformed rebar and wire fibers. Wire fiber concrete will be either cast-in-place or pneumatically applied, at the contractor's option. Approximately 150 cy of wire fiber reinforced concrete is required. Estimated cost is between $5 million and $10 million. The standard industrial classification (SIC) code is 1629. Average annual receipts for its preceding three fiscal years must not exceed $17.0 million. If a large business is selected for this contract, it must comply with FAR 219-9 regarding the requirement for a subcontracting plan on that portion of the work it intends to subcontract. The intended subcontracting goals are that a minimum of 61.2% of the contractor's intended subcontract amount be placed with small businesses (SB), including 9.1% with small disadvantaged businesses (SDB). The plan must contain a goal of 4.5% with woman-owned small businesses (WOB). The plan is not required with this submittal. This solicitation will be available on CD-ROM ONLY.
