The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Eastern Federal Lands Highway Division (EFLHD) is conducting market survey to identify potential sources for an anticipated contract award. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information, for planning purposes, to determine the availability and capability of qualified sources to perform the project work. This notice does not solicit proposals. Responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Pursuant to 48 C.F.R. Part 10, the Government is conducting market research to: •Determine what sources exist that are capable of satisfying the Government's requirements listed below, •Determine the capabilities of potential contractors, •Determine the size and status of potential sources, and •Determine the level of competition (i.e. 8(a), set-aside, or full and open). 3.INTRODUCTION - Statement of Need In June 2016, the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest endured a 1,000-year rain event. Numerous roads and bridges throughout the Forest were damaged, rendering several roads closed. The intent of this project is to repair several roadway sections within the Forest, with an emphasis on large roadway washout repair, culvert replacement, and roadway aggregate resurfacing. Work will take place at approximately 30 distinct locations in the Forest. 4.DESCRIPTION OF WORK Note: The final plans are not completed, and the estimated quantities and other numbers presented below are subject to change. •Install 3 concrete box culverts, ranging from 10'-20' span, embedded in stream material. •Install 3 concrete box culverts, ranging from 3'-6' span. •Install approximately 7-10 arch culverts, ranging in size from a 6' to 16' span, embedded in stream material. •Install approximately 10-15 arch culverts, ranging in size from 3'-6' span. •Backfill and reconstruct embankment for all culvert sites. Requires approximately 5,000 CY of embankment material (mostly borrow). •Reconstruct and pave approaches to large culverts. Approximately 10,000 SY (2,500 tons asphalt). •Install temporary stream diversions for all streams and maintain during construction. Approximately 15-20 sites. •Reconstruct major roadway washouts. Requires approximately 2,500 CY of embankment (mostly borrow). •Place/compact approximately 2,000 tons of roadway surface aggregate on existing roads. •Construct one 16' x 60' cellular confinement system (CCS) wall and a second 16' x 100' CCS wall. •Other miscellaneous work, including ditch repair and placement and maintenance of erosion and sediment control and maintenance of traffic devices. Key Restrictions •Work will not be permitted on Federal Government holidays. •Work will generally be permitted on nights and weekends. •Certain sites may not be accessible until other sites (on this project or others) are completed. •Utility relocations are anticipated. Work schedule will need to be coordinated with utility companies. •Single lane closures are allowable. Full closures will be allowable in most situations if required for timely repairs. However, The Government anticipates placing maximum time limits on several large culvert replacement sites where a full road closure is needed, especially in cases where property access is restricted. Schedule •The estimated NTP for this project is 3/15/19. Note that this date is an estimate only and is subject to change. Weather in the area doesn't normally allow construction activities until May, and there is a 2-4 week heavy load restriction in place after the snow melts.
