Description

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District intends to issue an Invitation for Bids (IFB) to award a contract for the Long Branch Beach renourishment project. This project will include the dredging of sand from the designated Sea Bright Borrow Area, located off Sandy Hook, NJ. The Sea Bright Borrow Area is located approximately five miles off shore at a mean water depth of 75 feet. The material (beach fill) will be placed north of Lake Takanassee. There will be 500,000 CY to 1,000,000 CY taken from the Sea Bright Borrow Area for Long Branch Beach renourishment project. The Contractor will be required to prepare and submit a site-specific unexplored ordnance (UXO) operational work plan to the government for approval prior to dredging operations. The Contractors proposed methodology of performing a magnetometer search and ordnance removal will be required as part of the work plan. The Contractor will also be required to conduct Sea Turtle and Whale monitoring during the period of June 15th through November 15th. The Contractor cannot place beach fill material during the period of March 15th through September 15th due to Piper Plovers nesting on the beach. There are additional restrictions to beach fill placement during the period of May 1st to November 1st. These restrictions are to avoid disturbance to bird nesting from Sea Beach Amaranth and Terns. This procurement is being solicited as UNRESTRICTED, full and open competition to all business concerns. The applicable NAICS CODE is 237990. The small business size is $18,500,000. The SIC Code is 1629, Heavy Construction, not elsewhere classified. The estimated construction cost is $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. Small Business Goals: If a large business, the prime contractor shall provide its small business subcontracting plan conforming to the requirements of FAR 19.704 and DFARS 219.7. The small business goals are as follows: Small Business 70.0%, Small Disadvantaged Business 6.5%, HUBzone Small Business 9.8%, Women-Owned Small Business 7.5%, Veteran-Owned Small Business 4.0%, Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business 2.0%. A subcontracting plan reflecting goals less than indicated shall provide, as part of the subcontracting plan submission, those extenuating circumstances of why the goal can not be met. You may contact the District, the deputy Small Business advocate, or your local SBA for assistance. A contract will not be awarded until the Contracting Officer has determined that the subcontracting plan provides maximum practicable opportunities for Small, Veteran-Owned Small Business, Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, Hubzone Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Business, and Women-Owned Small Business program concerns to participate in contract performance. The selected contractor will be required to commence work within 5 calendar days after the date the Contractor receives the Notice to Proceed, prosecute the work diligently, and complete the work no later than 730 calendar days for the entire project, after the date the Contractor receives the Notice to Proceed.
