- TIDAL ZONE ASPHALT AND DEBRIS CLEANUP GULF ISLANDS NATIONAL SEASHORE BEACH ENHANCEMENT AND ASPHALT REMOVAL PROJECT ACQUISITION: restricted to small businesses; offers from other than Small will not be considered. CONTRACT TYPE: Firm fixed-price, single award MAGNITUDE: estimated price range is between $100,000 and $250,000. MEANS AND METHODS: No work will be authorized from boats and/or barges. No work will occur at night. Contractor shall minimize substrate disturbance and/or removal of sand. Methods and equipment that removes debris but leaves sand are desired. Equipment may be tracked or wheeled to complete the task at hand in soft and wet sand conditions. Examples of appropriate equipment: utility vehicles, skid steers, front end loaders, dump trucks, backhoes, and excavators. After excavation/removal, debris will be transported to the staging/temporary debris holding area and dumped into containers. No debris will be sorted or stockpiled on the sand or on parking lot pavement. This method will minimize handling, incidental deposition of debris on the beach, and removal of sand from the system. Once containers are full, material will be hauled offsite to approved local facilities and preferably recycled. PRINCIPAL PURPOSE: to remove/dispose of an estimated quantity of 500 cubic yards of asphalt and other miscellaneous non-natural debris scattered over approximately 2 linear miles of shoreline in target area of 5.5 acres. An approximated 40% of asphalt debris removal will occur in supratidal and intertidal areas with the remaining 60% of removal efforts occurring in subtidal areas. Debris is defined as derelict pavement and fragments of asphalt varying in in shape and size from large slabs (5-10 feet long) down to fragments 3 inches in diameter, as well as miscellaneous non-natural debris including, but not limited to, PVC pipes, cables ¿ 1 inch or less in diameter, concrete, and boat debris ¿ 4 feet x 4 feet x 4 feet (less than or equal to). Derelict utility cables ¾"-1" in diameter [several hundred feet of cable have been observed]. An approximated 10% of cable removal will occur in supratidal and onshore areas, 40% removal will occur in intertidal areas, with the remaining 50% of removal occurring in subtidal areas. Several areas in need of cable removal have been identified in SOW/Maps 2-3. The target project area encompass south shore barrier island property from parking lot 17A east to parking lot 19A (SOW, Map 1). The closest metropolitan city is Pensacola, Florida. Work area include 1) supratidal zone [within 50 feet landward of mean high water (MHW)], 2) intertidal zone [area between MHW and mean low water (MLW) (AKA the `wet sand')], and 3) subtidal zone [submerged area within 20 feet seaward of MLW]. The project area covers approximately 28 acres across supratidal, intertidal and subtidal zones; 12.9 acres, 9.2 acres, and 6.1 acres, respectively. In addition to the nearshore areas, removal of expose cable throughout onshore areas. Onshore is the area landward of the supratidal zone, south of Fort Pickens Road. Cable is the only debris type to be removed from onshore areas. No seagrass beds exist within the project area. No work will be performed in subtidal areas greater than 20 feet seaward of MLW. One sensitive resource area in the project area (SOW, Map 2). BACKGROUND: Several storms and hurricanes since 1995 have caused severe damage to existing roads along GULF ISLANDS NATIONAL SEASHORE beaches. The storm surges eroded/lifted sections of asphalt road and road base materials and scattered materials considerable distances. Removal efforts landward of Mean High Water (MHW) have been ongoing since 2016. To date, these efforts have removed over 14,000 cubic yards from approximately 480 acres of GUIS. The remaining volume of asphalt debris to be removed from tidal zones is estimated to be in the range of 2,500-3,000 cubic yards. Asphalt debris to be removed ranges in shape and size from large slabs (5-10 feet long) down to fragments 3 inches in diameter. Based on visual observations and historical assessments, asphalt debris throughout supratidal, intertidal and subtidal areas are assumed by the NATIONAL PARK SERVICE to range from a few inches to 3 feet deep. However, there may be some areas where debris is buried deeper. Due to the nature and uncertainty in volume of asphalt debris to be removed, assumptions have been made based on best available information ¿ more or less asphalt may be present than preliminary estimates indicate. BONDS: Contracts exceeding $150,000 require (1) Performance bonds, SF 25 [penal amount 100 percent of the original contract price] and (2) Payment bonds, SF 25A [100 percent of the original contract price]; and The amount of the payment bond must be no less than the amount of the performance bond. NAICS code 237990 Dredging and Surface Cleanup Activities [a sub-industry category (or an "exception") under NAICS 237990, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction] and the small business size standard of $27.5M [footnote 2, states: To be considered small for purposes of Government procurement, a firm must perform at least 40 percent of the volume dredged with its own equipment or equipment owned by another small dredging concern. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: The overall work period for cleanup activities will be a 2.5 month onsite work season occurring 16 November 2019 through 31 January 2020. Work stoppages during this period may occur due to hurricanes, severe storms, or early or late shore- and seabird and sea turtle nesting. Demobilization from staging area(s) shall be complete not later than February 14, 2020. Project Completion Report (Final) due not later than March 20, 2020 PERMITTING: Prior to commencement of onsite work, the Contractor shall acquire a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit as required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Through Section 404, permits are required to discharge dredged and fill materials into waters of the United States, including wetlands. Debris removal projects such as dredging, demolition, and construction and operation of sites used for debris management must comply with the requirements of CWA as administered by the Federal, State, or local regulatory agency.
