About this file
This document is a Prebid Question Responses file for the GAOA Cove Boat Ramp and Shoreline Stabilization project (Solicitation Number 140L2625R0002) issued by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) on July 8th, 2025. The document addresses seven contractor inquiries regarding the project, including confirmation that the existing concrete boat ramp likely contains rebar, clarification on project timeline (expected notice to proceed by mid-August), and details about site preparation. BLM has already filed a joint permit with the Army Corps / IDWR / Idaho Lands and indicates that the boat ramp will be closed during construction. The agency has not provided a geotechnical report and declined the contractor's request to extend the bid submission deadline. Notable technical details include a requirement for clear and grub within shoreline stabilization limits with a minimum 2-foot rock riprap thickness, and allowance for reusing existing approach area gravel if preserved and matching site conditions.
