The acquisition is for dockside repairs to the USCGC MOBILE BAY (WTGB 103), a 140 foot ice-breaking tug, and CG Barge 12002, a 130 foot barge. The homeport of the USCGC MOBILE BAY is Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. The tug is geographically restricted to transiting the Great Lakes. The performance period is 35 days and is expected to begin 20 August 2001. The scope of the acquisition is for the overhauling, cleaning, inspecting, and renewing of various items aboard the tug and its barge. This work includes, but is not limited to: cleaning, and inspecting diesel fuel oil tanks; cleaning, inspecting, and disinfecting, potable water tanks; cleaning and inspecting sewage and grey water collection and holding tanks; cleaning and inspecting voids and ballast tanks, testing and adjusting relief valves, cleaning, inspecting, and testing heater units, inspecting and testing air receivers, overhauling steering pump motors, inspecting and testing weight handling equipment on tug, inspecting, overhauling and testing Appleton ATON crane, renewing deck covering system, and servicing life rafts and hydrostatic releases.

At the present time, the acquisition is expected to be issued under full and open competition procedures. However, in accordance with FAR 19.1305, if your firm is HUBZone certified and intends to submit an offer on this acquisition, please respond by e-mail to kstark@mlca.uscg.mil or by fax (757)628-4676.
