About this file
This document provides an amendment to a solicitation for maintenance dredging services. The amendment extends the deadline for submitting requests for information to August 16, 2021, clarifies that multi-beam or single-beam survey methods are acceptable for pre-dredge and post-dredge surveys, updates an outdated survey manual reference, and notes that while conservation recommendations suggest limiting dredging from March to May and September to November, the estimated quantities require dredging year-round. The related opportunity is for maintenance dredging of approximately 2.35 million cubic yards of material from Cape Henry Channel in Virginia and Baltimore Harbor. A hopper dredge will be used to remove material and transport it to the Dam Neck Ocean Disposal Site. Work must be completed within 160 calendar days of the notice to proceed. The estimated value of the contract is up to $20 million.

Recommendations.
On: Aug 09 2021.
Government Response. . Please note the Biological Opinion includes Conservation Recommendations, not restrictions. Due the estimated quantity to be dredged under this contract, it is not practicable to avoid dredging from March-May and September-November. In these instance, USACE makes every effort to avoid dredging between 01 September and 15 November. For this reason, 160 days will remain as the set performance period.
