- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District intends to issue an Invitation for Bids (IFB) to perform maintenance dredging of Sandy Hook Channel and Main Ship Channel, in the New York Harbor Federal Navigation Project, with subsequent placement of the dredged material at the Historic Area Remediation Site (HARS). The proposed maintenance dredging would remove up to a maximum of 500,000 cubic yards of sediment (approx. 55,000 cubic yards as basic work and the remaining 445,000 cubic yards as options) to a depth of 35 feet (Sandy Hook Channel) and 30 feet (Main Ship Channel) below Mean Low Water (MLW) with 2 ft allowable overdepth. The proposed work in Sandy Hook Channel can be performed by either a large mechanical dredge, hopper dredge, or similar plant. In Main Ship Channel, the proposed work may be required to be performed with a large mechanical dredge having a closed environmental clamshell bucket, but can also be performed with a hopper dredge if allowed by the state water quality certificate. Additional multiple barges and tug boats may be needed to perform the work during dredging, transport and placement of the dredged material. Plans and Specifications for the subject project will be available on/about 22 September 2011 with bid opening on/about 21 October 2011. This procurement is being solicited under 100% Full and Open Competition. The applicable NAICS Code is 237990 Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. The small business size is $20,000,000.00. The SIC Code is 1629 heavy construction not elsewhere classified. The estimated cost is $1,000,000 and $10,000,000 (basic and options). The Federal Acquisition Regulation requires that Past Performance Information (PPI) be collected on Department of Defense (DoD) contracts. The Government has now implemented a web-enabled application that collects and manages contractor past performance data. Effective 1 April 2007, the system, Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS), requires both the contractor and the Government to submit their portion of the CPARS report via the internet for construction contracts in excess of $100,000.00. More definitive guidance and instructions will be incorporated in the solicitation and resultant contract. In the meantime, to become familiar with the system, the CPARS website has a computer-based training module and a practice session for your use at https://www.nwp.usace.army.mil/ct/I/home.asp by following the links to the training.
