- Description
- Industry Day 2025 Delaware River, Philadelphia to Sea Beneficial Use of Dredged Material The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Philadelphia District would like to invite dredging industry contractors to Industry Day 2025 for the Delaware River, Philadelphia to Sea Beneficial Use of Dredged Material Project. Project Authorization: The Delaware River, Philadelphia to the Sea deep draft navigation project was originally authorized in House Document (HD) 61-733 as modified by HD 71-304, River and Harbors Committee Document 73-5, Senate Document 75-159, HD 76-580, HD 77-340, HD 83-358 and HD 85-135, and provides for a 45� deep Federal channel in the Delaware River, from the entrance of Delaware Bay to the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philadelphia. In order to meet the goals of the Delaware River, Philadelphia to Sea Beneficial Use of Dredged Material Project (Delaware Bayshore), the dredged sand would be beneficially used as beach nourishment along two or more of the following Delaware Bayshore towns of Pickering Beach, Kitts Hummock, Bowers Beach, South Bowers Beach, Slaughter Beach, Lewes and/or Prime Hook Beach IAW Section 401 of WRDA 2020 and as generally described in the Chief�s Report dated March 2020 and approved by the chief of Engineers on 6 March 2020. Federal funds for the DPS Project were provided in the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024 to initiate design and construction of the Project under Section 204(d) of WRDA 1992 as authorized by Section 8327 of WRDA 2022. This proposed project is intended to be done in conjunction with routine maintenance dredging between July of 2026 and March of 2027, subject to the availability of non-Federal Sponsor funds to advertise and award a dredging contract before the end of Fiscal Year (FY) 2026. The event will be held virtually on May 15, 2025 at 10:00 AM via a Teams meeting. A link will be provided to all registered contractors at least two days prior to the event. The purpose and focus of the event will be to seek dredging industry input and their questions regarding best practices for the technical execution of the placement of sandy dredged material from the Brandywine Range of the Delaware River, Philadelphia to Sea Deep Draft Navigation Project main channel onto 2 or more of the Delaware Bayshore communities indicated above. Material in the channel has been characterized as predominately sand, based on the historic vibracore sampling and testing to a depth of -50 feet MLLW, and past dredging events to at least -45 feet MLLW depths. Work is in a dynamic coastal environment with shallow water extending for several miles from these communities out into the Delaware Bay. The meeting will allow for attendees to have the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback or concerns. All interested attendees must pre-register by e-mail to Contract Specialist, Connor Struckmeyer at Connor.A.Struckmeyer@usace.army.mil using the attached registration form no later than 4:00PM on May 13, 2025. Telephone requests will not be accepted. Registration must include name, company, daytime telephone number, e-mail address, and your relation to the marine construction industry as reason for attendance. You are requested to provide a count of how many people (from each registered Contractor) will be in attendance. This is a non-fee event. This announcement is not a contract solicitation, request for proposal of any sort, a promise to issue any future contract, a forum to discuss upcoming work (other than for the Delaware River, Philadelphia to Sea Beneficial Use of Dredged Material Project), or a commitment to offer work of any kind on the part of the Government.
