Z -- PEA PATCH ISLAND SLUICEWAY RESTORATION/NORTH BREAKWATER INSTALLATION, PEA PATCH ISLAND, FORT DELAWARE STATE PARK, DELAWARE RIVER, DELAWARE SOL DACW61-00-B-0030 DUE 082200 POC Sandi Fletcher, Contract Specialist, 215-656-6915 This action originally published in the CBD dated July 5, 2000 is modified to read: "This is a high visibility project to be performed at a historic site at an island in the Delaware River where precautions are required to protect the visiting public. The project consists of restoration of an existing sluiceway and sluiceway gates and reconstruction of a deteriorated breakwater on the shoreline of an island within the Delaware River, facing and within proximity to a major shipping channel. Option A is to construct North Breakwater. All access to the site is by boat/barge. The work will be performed from barges which will be subject to significant current and wave actions generated by passing ship and barge traffic. Safety concerns also exist for the contractor operating their boats and barges in and around the shipping channel. Barges for material delivery and a barge mounted crane are required to perform work on this project. The project also requires technically qualified Unexploded Ordinance (UXO) personnel in the work crew to handle UXO's when found and assist in the safe direction of work progress. The work is also subject to unearthed historical artifacts which must be removed, protected and turned over to State Park representatives. Further, environmental considerations to control and limit construction noise so as not to impact on nesting birds is required." Posted 07/07/00 (W-SN472552). (0189)
