About this file
This is a set of draft specifications for a construction project at Lock and Dam 7 in Minnesota involving weir modifications and new rock weir structures. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers St. Paul District project includes modifying an existing weir, constructing new rock weir structures, dredging, excavation, rock placement, granular fill, and notching of an existing weir.
The work is divided into four phases with specific completion dates: Phase 1 (Dog-leg Western Weir) to be completed by September 5, 2025; Phase 2 (Notching of Existing Dog-leg Western Weir) by October 24, 2025; Phase 3 (Dog-leg Weir Raising) by December 9, 2025; and Phase 4 (Parallel Eastern Weir and Scour Protection) by December 9, 2026. Key requirements include developing comprehensive project schedules, coordinating with other contractors using the same loading dock facilities, maintaining navigation access during construction, and adhering to environmental protection measures including eagle nest exclusion zones. The contractor must also provide detailed condition surveys before, during, and after construction, and coordinate work around the lock's operational schedule, with access limited to navigation season (typically March 10 to December 10).
