About this file
This is Amendment 0001 to Solicitation GROUP1-24-R-W001 for Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway Maintenance Dredging, FY27 Contract, North Carolina, issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wilmington District on August 25, 2026. The amendment modifies the technical specifications and drawings for pipeline hydraulic dredging operations in North Carolina.
The key changes include: (1) replacement of Section 35 20 23.33 "National Dredging Quality Management Pipeline Hydraulic Dredge" with "National Dredging Quality Management Small Business Pipeline Hydraulic Dredge," which redesignates slurry velocity and slurry density as non-mandatory fields for small business contractors who may omit these parameters if their dredge equipment is not outfitted with velocity or density meters; (2) revision to Section 3.1.1.3 regarding dredge events and state event reporting; (3) updated drawing CN106 (Oak Island Beach Placement) with dredge box hatch adjustments to match sheet CN107; and (4) expanded clearing lane for dredge pipe on drawing CN109 (Mile Hammock Bay Placement Details) from 5 feet to 10 feet. The specification requires contractors to implement the National Dredging Quality Management Program system for real-time data monitoring and transmission via JSON message bundles to the DQM database, maintain a Dredge Plant Instrumentation Plan, provide current DQM certification, establish internet connectivity with maximum four-hour delays in data transmission, and complete repairs within two business days or submit repair timelines. Failure to meet data reporting requirements within specified timeframes may result in withholding up to 10 percent of contract progress payments.

PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 REQUIREMENTS FOR REPORTED DATA
Provide, operate, and maintain all hardware and software to meet these specifications. The Contractor is also responsible for the replacement, repair, and calibration of the sensors and other necessary data acquisition equipment needed to supply the required data.
Document and complete the procedure to complete a repair as soon as practical. If repair is not possible within two business days of any sensor failure, submit a plan and timeline to complete the repair. Notify the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR)upon completion of a repair, replacement, installation, modification, or calibration. The COR may request recalibration of the sensors or other hardware components at any time during the contract as deemed necessary.
Keep a log of sensor repair, replacement, installation, modification, and calibration in the dredge's onboard copy of the DPIP. The log must contain a three-year history of sensor maintenance, including the time of the sensor failures (and subsequent repairs), the time and results of sensor calibrations, the time of sensor replacements, and the time that backup sensor systems were initiated to provide the required data. It must also contain the name of the person responsible for the sensor work.
Install sensors that are capable of collecting parameters within the specified accuracies and resolutions indicated in the following subparagraphs and transmit these parameters to the DQM database. Transmit all data in JSON message bundles. Each bundle can contain multiple message types. Transmit sensor data as work event messages, and transmit data which relates to the operational state of the dredge or its sensors as state event messages. (See paragraph PARAMETER TRANSMISSION TO THE WEB
SERVICE.)
3.1.1 Message Bundle Data
Every message bundle must contain descriptive data that relates the message to a given dredge plant and date/time. Identify the start of a message bundle by the tag "DQM_data".
3.1.1.1 Messages
Messages contain operational data that populates the DQM database for a dredge plant. A message must consist of an event type and its associated data (as defined in paragraph DREDGE EVENTS), a date/time stamp indicating when the event occurred or started, and a comment providing clarification
SECTION 35 20 23.33 38 Page 4 or metadata about the situation. There are multiple event types, but they all fall into one of two categories - work events and state events.
3.1.1.1.1 Message Time
In a work event message, message time is the date and time that the data is collected from the sensors; in a state event message, message time is the date and time that the state event begins. Report the message time to the nearest second and reference it to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time based on a 24-hour format ( YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS). In order to ensure accuracy and reliability, synchronize the time stamp to UTC format from an accurate, unchangeable source (for example, a GPS National Marine Electronics Association NMEA datastring). Identify message time by the tag "msg_time".
3.1.1.1.2 Comment
Comments concerning the work event or state event messages being transmitted provide descriptive information that relates to the data. An example of a comment for work event data is information about a sensor issue; an example of a comment for state event data is a description of operations. Identify a comment by the introductory tag "comment", and limit it to no more than 250 characters.
3.1.1.2 Dredge Events - Work Event
There are two types of dredge event messages - work event messages and state event messages. Work event messages contain data that are instantaneously collected or calculated from sensors and are logged as a series of events. Work events are triggered by a time interval change (as described in paragraph WORK EVENT MESSAGES). Initiate all work event messages by the header tag "work_event".
3.1.1.2.1 Vertical Correction
Obtain the variation of the water level from the vertical datum for the river stage or tidal gage described in the state events using appropriate equipment to give the water level with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 ft. Enter vertical correction values above project datum described in the dredging specification with a positive sign and those below with a negative sign.
The tag for vertical correction is "vert_correction".
3.1.1.2.2 Cutter/Suction Head Location and Movement
Monitor the X, Y, and Z components of the cutter/suction head location.
Additional calculations made from the observed values determine the rates of movement to track the progress of the dredge.
3.1.1.2.2.1 Cutter/Suction Head Horizontal Position
Obtain the forwardmost point of the cutter/suction head using a positioning system operating with a minimum accuracy level of 3-10 feet horizontal Circular Error Probable (CEP). Report it as Latitude/Longitude WGS 84 in decimal degrees with West Longitude and South Latitude values reported as negative. Identify position values by the tags "ch_latitude" and "ch_longitude".
SECTION 35 20 23.33 38 Page 5
3.1.1.2.2.2 Cutter/Suction Invert Depth
Cutter/suction invert depth is the depth of the invert of the suction mouth relative to the surface of the water. Instrumentation must be capable of reporting to an accuracy of +/- 0.5 foot and a resolution to the nearest 0.1 foot with no tidal adjustments. Minimum accuracies are conditional to relatively calm water. Use the tag "ch_depth" to identify the cutter/suction head depth.
3.1.1.2.2.3 Cutter/Suction Head Heading
The cutter/suction head heading is the angle of the centerline of the cutter/suction head and dredge ladder measured relative to true north.
Provide all headings using industry-standard equipment. The heading must be accurate to within 5 degrees and reported to the nearest whole degree with values from 000 (true north) to 359 degrees referenced to a clockwise positive direction convention. Use the tag "ch_heading" to identify the cutter/suction head heading.
3.1.1.2.3 Dredge Activity
Monitor dredge activity using a combination of the following parameters.
3.1.1.2.3.1 Slurry Velocity
Slurry velocity is not a mandatory field for the Small Business profile;
however, if the dredge is outfitted with a velocity meter, then it is expected that velocity data will be included within the DQM string and will meet the standard DQM requirements outlined below.
Use a flow-metering device, calibrated according to the manufacturer's specifications, to record the slurry velocity to the nearest 0.01 fps with an accuracy of + 0.5 fps. If the manufacturer does not specify a frequency of recalibration, conduct calibration prior to the commencement of work.
Measure the slurry velocity for the same pipeline inside diameter as that used for the slurry density measurement. Associate the tag "slurry_velocity" with this value.
3.1.1.2.3.2 Slurry Density
Slurry density is not a mandatory field for the Small Business profile;
however, if the dredge is outfitted with a density meter, then it is expected that density data will be included within the DQM string and will meet the standard DQM requirements outlined below.
Use a density-metering device, calibrated according to the manufacturer's specifications, to record the slurry density to the nearest 0.01 g/cc. It is understood that the accuracy of this sensor can vary based on several factors, including the type of material, the magnitude of the cut, and the length of time since calibration. If the manufacturer does not specify a frequency of recalibration, conduct calibration prior to the commencement of work. Continuous monitoring of this sensor ensures that drift and other factors inherent in the dredging process can be accounted for in monitoring dredge activity. Associate the tag "slurry_density" with this value.
SECTION 35 20 23.33 38 Page 6
3.1.1.2.3.3 Pump RPM
The pump rpm is the number of revolutions per minute measured for the slurry pump shaft. Measure the shaft revolution rate (rev/min) with the highest level of accuracy that is standard on the vessel's operational displays either at the bridge or in the engine room. Identify this value by the tag "rpm".
3.1.1.2.3.4 Pump Vacuum
Measure the vacuum pressure of the dredge pump(s) (inches of mercury) as near to the eye as practicable in the pump's suction pipe with the highest level of accuracy that is standard on the vessel's operational displays either at the leverman's controls or in the engine room. Identify vacuum pressure by the tag "vacuum".
3.1.1.2.3.5 Pump Outlet Pressure
Measure the pump outlet pressure in the discharge line on the pump side of the flap valve in terms of pounds per square inch (psi) on a gauge. Report the pump outlet pressure with the highest level of accuracy that is standard on the vessel's operational displays either at the leverman's controls or in the engine room. Identify the pump outlet pressure by the tag "outlet_psi".
3.1.1.2.4 Outfall Information (Open Water/Spill Barge Placement
Monitor the X and Y position of the terminal end of the outfall pipe continuously and report the position as part of the work event string.
3.1.1.2.4.1 Discharge Horizontal Position
Obtain the horizontal position of the outfall end of the discharge pipe using a positioning system operating with a minimum accuracy level of 3-10 feet horizontal Circular Error Probable (CEP). Report it as Latitude/Longitude WGS 84 in decimal degrees with West Longitude and South Latitude values being reported as negative. Identify position values by the tags "outfall_latitude" and "outfall_longitude".
3.1.1.3 Dredge Events - State Event
In addition to real-time work event messages, submission of "state data" is also required. State data provides information about the current state of the dredge equipment or operations. It is submitted daily through the DQM Contractor Management Site (https://retool.usace.army.mil/) from the first day of dredging activity on a contract through the final day. State data collected includes, but is not limited to, contract information, pipeline length and outfall information, dredge advance, coverage and volume estimates, and non-effective event information.
3.2 NATIONAL DREDGING QUALITY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
The Contractor's DQM system must be capable of collecting and transmitting data to the DQM system. Record the applicable parameters from paragraph REQUIREMENTS FOR REPORTED DATA as local events and transmit continuously to the DQM database anytime an Internet connection is available.
To accomplish this transmission, send data directly to DQM's web endpoint as outlined in the following paragraph, DIRECT DATA TRANSMISSIONS TO THE
SECTION 35 20 23.33 38 Page 7
DQM WEB SERVICE.
3.2.1 Direct Data Transmissions to the DQM Web Services
Use a web service to report sensor data to the DQM database. Transmit data as it is collected in real time and push it to the DQM web service. If the web service is not available or returns an error message, store the data in a queue and transmit it upon re-establishment of the connection, starting with the oldest data in the queue and continuing until real-time transmission is restored.
Contact dqm-support@usace.army.mil to obtain the web service URL and the appropriate key credentials and communication protocol.
A display of the raw data being transmitted to DQM must be easily accessible and visible onboard the dredge.
3.2.2 Internet Access
Maintain an Internet connection capable of transmitting real-time data to the DQM server as well as enough additional bandwidth to clear historically queued data when a connection is re-established. If connectivity is lost, queue and transmit unsent data upon restoration of connectivity. Delays in pushing real-time data to the DQM database should not exceed four hours. Exceptions to these requirements may be granted by the DQM Support Center on a case-by-case basis with consideration for contract-specific requirements, site-specific conditions, and extreme weather events.
Acquire and install all necessary hardware and software to make the Internet connection available for data transmission to the DQM web service. Configure the hardware and software to allow the DQM Support Center remote access to this computer. The telemetry system must be capable of meeting these minimum reporting requirements in all operating conditions.
In areas with poor cellular service and at the local District's discretion, it may be required to manually download the data on a daily basis using the protocol for retrieving and submitting backup files provided by the DQM Support Center. This method of data transmission should be used only if Internet connectivity is unavailable at the dredging site, and it should be considered a temporary measure.
3.2.3 Data Routing Requirements
Onboard sensors continually monitor dredge conditions, operations, and efficiency and route this information to the shipboard dredge-specific system (DSS) computer to assist in guiding dredge operations.
Digitally log and transmit information regarding changes in the state of the dredge as close to the time of the occurrence as possible. These events can be entered online in the DQM State Data Tool.
3.3 DREDGE MONITORING DATA
3.3.1 General
Onboard sensors continuously collect dredging data in support of the
SECTION 35 20 23.33 38 Page 8 dredge Contractor's operations. Store and transmit portions of this Contractor-collected information, as described in this specification, and calculations based on them to the DQM database on a near real-time basis.
Additionally, digitally log and transmit information regarding the state of the dredge.
3.3.2 Data Measurement Frequency
The frequency of data transmission is dependent on the type of message being sent. Work Event messages contain data that are instantaneously collected or calculated from sensors and are logged as a series of events.
State event messages are activated by a change in the dredge state.
3.3.2.1 Work Event Messages
Log data as a series of events. Each event must consist of a dataset containing dredge information (as defined in paragraph REQUIREMENTS FOR REPORTED DATA). Consider each set of measurements (for example, time and position) an event, with a 6-12 second interval between work events. This interval must remain consistent across event types for the dredge plant.
Record a standard data string within one second of an event trigger with the time stamp and all parameters reflecting when the event happened.
3.3.2.2 State Event Messages
Consider a set of descriptive information (event name, time, description, comment) a state event. Record these events within 24 hours of a change in state with the time stamp reflecting when the event happened.
3.3.3 Parameter Transmission to the Web Service
Format the data as JSON (JavaScript Object Notation, as defined at http://www.json.org) strings of arbitrary length. These JSON strings represent a hierarchical data structure consisting of a message bundle which may contain 0-3 automatic data messages and any number of manual data messages.
A tag/parameter is reported only when it contains a value. Do not include "Null" value strings in a message bundle.

3.3.4 Contractor Data Backup
Maintain an archive of all data sent to the DQM Support Center during the dredging contract. The COR may require, at no increase in the contract price, that the Contractor provide a copy of these data covering specified time periods. Provide the data in the same JSON format as would have been transmitted to the DQM computer. There must be no line breaks between the parameters, and each record string must be on separate line. The naming convention for the files must be < dredgename>_<StartYYYYMMddhhmmss>_< EndYYYYMMddhhmmss>.txt.
Data submission must be via a storage medium acceptable to the COR.
At the end of the dredging contact, call the National DQM Support Center prior to discarding the data. The DQM Support Center will verify that all data has been received and appropriately archived before giving the Contractor discard permission. Record the following information in a separate section at the end of the dredge's onboard copy of the DPIP:
- Person who called the National DQM Support Center
- Date of the call
- DQM representative who gave permission to discard the data
3.4 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
The Contractor's National Dredging Quality Management Program's data transmission must be fully operational at the start of dredging
SECTION 35 20 23.33 38 Page 10 operations. To meet contract requirements for operability, the Contractor's system must provide an accurate data string return and be compliant with hardware requirements. Data string return is defined as the number of quality records within an event or state tag sent by the contractor's system to the DQM database. Quality data strings are considered to be those providing accurate values for all parameters reported when operating according to the specification. Make repairs necessary to restore data return compliance within two business days, or submit a plan and timeline for repair if the repair will take more than two business days. Failure by the Contractor to report quality data within the specified time window for dredge measurements as stated in the specifications (see paragraphs INTERNET ACCESS, DATA MEASUREMENT FREQUENCY, and PARAMETER TRANSMISSION TO THE WEB SERVICE), will result in withholding of up to 10% of the contract progress payment per FAR clause 52.232-5.
