Amendment 0001_J76593-1 Std_Tal_L4 Final Report Part 2.pdf

This solicitation is for maintenance dredging of Cheesequake Creek in New Jersey. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers seeks to dredge approximately 9,000 cubic yards of sediment from the creek to a depth of -5 feet MLLW plus 2 feet of overdepth. The dredged material, estimated to consist of over 98% sand and gravel, must be transported to a suitable approved upland placement site. A mechanical dredge with enclosed bucket must be used due to water quality permit restrictions. Multiple scows and tugboats will also be required to complete dredging, dewatering, and unloading operations. Bids are due online by the date specified in the attached solicitation. The awarded contractor must commence work within 5 days of notice to proceed and maintain a minimum production rate of 1,000 cubic yards per day to minimize vessel traffic impacts. The project is estimated to cost between $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 and be completed in July through October 2020, with $2,020 per day liquidated damages for delays.
