- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District intends to issue an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the award of a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Contract to perform maintenance dredging of Hudson River, New York. The work involves maintenance dredging of approximately 54,000 cubic yards of material from the Hudson River Federal Navigation Project Channel at the Albany Turning Basin, with upland placement of the dredged material in the federally owned Houghtaling Island Placement Site. The dredging area is located approximately 15 miles from the placement site. The contractor is required to properly prepare the placement site prior to placing the dredged material in accordance with the contract requirements including the construction of new and/or reinforcement of existing containment dikes in the area designated for placement of the Albany Turning Basin sediments. The designated placement area was previously used for placement of dredged sediments that contained elevated levels of PCBs. Following completion of the Albany Turning Basin dredging, the contractor is required to place a minimum of two (2) feet of clean cover over the entire area designated for use for the Albany Turning Basin sediments even if the entire designated area is not used during the Albany Turning Basin placement operations. The contract includes a designated Mandatory Excavation Area (MEA) that must be used for dike construction/reinforcement and covering contaminated material. The Contractor is required to excavate a minimum of 100,000 cubic yards of material from the designated MEA. If the entire mandatory excavation quantity from the MEA is not used in the site construction and placement of a clean cover, the remaining material to be excavated is required to be deposited at designated stockpile locations within the Houghtaling Island Placement Site. The contractor will also be responsible for performing all sampling, testing, and monitoring activities to insure compliance with contract requirements. It is anticipated that dredging and disposal would take place within the approximate time period of June 2010 to December 2010; with final stabilization and clean-up of the Houghtaling Island placement site completed by May 2011. The work, including any option/s, is estimated to cost between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. Funding is provided under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Plans and Specifications for the subject project would be available on or about 12 May 2010, with Bid Opening on or about 12 June 2010. Bid opening will be held at 26 Federal Plaza, New York, New York 10278 in Room 1841. The Contractor will be required to commence work within five (5) calendar days after the date of receipt by the firm of the Notice to Proceed, to prosecute said work diligently, and to complete the work no later than three hundred sixty-five (365) calendar days after the receipt by the firm of the Notice to Proceed, depending on the award of options.
