About this file

This document is a Dredge and Attendant Plant Characteristic Sheet template used by offerors to provide specifications for a cutterhead hydraulic pipeline dredge and associated equipment in response to a Request for Proposals. The offeror must furnish, deliver, and operate the proposed plant in accordance with contract clauses, specifications, schedules, drawings, and conditions, with pricing submitted on an attached pricing schedule.

The characteristic sheet requires detailed specifications across multiple equipment categories. For the dredge hull, offerors must provide dimensions (length, breadth, depth), draft under normal and maximum working conditions, minimum channel width and water depth for operation, maximum digging depth, and maximum width of cut without exceeding a 45-degree swing angle. Operating capability information includes maximum current tolerances for 15-foot and 30-foot water depths. The ladder section requires length specifications and extension capacity, along with cutter rotational speed and brake horsepower. The dredging pump specifications include suction and discharge diameters, maximum impeller RPM, actuation method (steam engine, diesel engine, electric motor, or other), and brake horsepower applied. An underwater pump section requests identical specification categories. The main pump engine requires make, model, type, size, age, brake horsepower, RPM, and estimated daily fuel consumption. Two attendant tenders (300 H.P. and 600 H.P.) must each be described with hull dimensions, molded beam, draft, and year built. Additional requirements include propulsion engine specifications (port and starboard), inspector's skiff details with outboard motor information, and identification of when and where the plant was last operated, inspection location, and current ownership.
