SUMMARY OF WORK

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 PROJECT LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION

The Isles of Shoals is a three-mile-long cluster of eight rocky islands and ledges located off the coast of New Hampshire and Maine approximately six nautical miles (nmi) southeast from the entrance to Portsmouth Harbor, New Hampshire. Four of the islands, Star, Cedar, Smuttynose, and Malaga, are situated such that they create a small harbor, known as Gosport Harbor. The harbor is 32 acres in area and is used by commercial and charter fishing boats, recreational vessels, the U.S. Coast Guard during search and rescue operations, and excursion boats from Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

Work in the Isles of Shoals began as early as 1821, when private interests constructed a stone breakwater between Malaga and Smuttynose islands. In 1904, the Corps repaired and strengthened the breakwater to a length of 240 feet and constructed a second stone breakwater, 700 feet long, between Smuttynose and Cedar islands. In 1913, the Corps repaired and strengthened the existing breakwaters and constructed a third stone breakwater, 530 feet long, between Cedar and Star islands. The breakwaters provide vessels with a safe refuge in Gosport Harbor.

However, the Contractor shall be aware that since the work is in the Northeast, and 6 nautical miles from the coast of New Hampshire's Portsmouth Harbor unprotected in the Atlantic Ocean, that the area is prone to severe storms or Nor'Easters throughout the year. These storms have the potential to cause high winds and ocean swells (extreme storm waves), and could make for potentially dangerous situations. The Contractor shall monitor the weather at all times during the period of performance (refer below to subpart titled "Weather Conditions").

The project will consist of repairing three stone rubble mounded breakwaters located between the four islands of Star, Cedar, Smuttynose, and Malaga. Over the years, the rock structures were damaged in particular areas along the length of each structure by intense wave action during storm events. In some areas along Breakwaters 1 and 2 the armor stones were loosened and are no longer stable, and in other areas the armor stones were displaced leaving small to large voids either along the side slopes or completely through the structures. The armor stones for Breakwater 3 were completely displaced leaving no formed structure.

1.2 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

a. The Contractor shall perform the work in strict accordance with the Contract Drawings and Specifications and provide all supervision, plant, labor, materials, equipment, safety, and quality control necessary to perform all operations as necessary to complete the contract work. The Contractor is responsible for providing and utilizing appropriate plant and equipment as needed to handle, remove and reset, and rehandle existing armor stones and the furnishing, handling, and placement of new armor stones. For intent of the repairs refer to Section 35 31 19 BREAKWATER REPAIRS under paragraph

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 3 titled "INTENT OF BREAKWATER REPAIRS".

b. The general description of the work described below is general in nature and is only given to indicate the approximate scope of work under this contract. It does not limit the work required under the project Contract Drawings and Specifications.

c. General Description of the Work:

BASE BID ITEM WORK:

(a) Perform mobilization and demobilization as necessary to complete all work as specified in the Contract Drawings and Specifications.

(b) Repair damaged Breakwater 1, from Star Island to Station 7+25 (top of crest end), by dismantling and removing existing armor stones to specified elevation as shown on the Contract Drawings, to include crest and side slopes. Using existing and new armor stones rebuild breakwater as specified in Section 35 31 19 BREAKWATER REPAIRS and the Contract Drawings. The Contractor shall be aware that eelgrass exists along the harbor side of Breakwater 1 and that restrictions shall apply when working from the water in areas of eelgrass; refer to paragraph titled BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES in Section 01 57 19 TEMPORARY ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS. See Contract Drawing sheet G-003 for location of eelgrass.

(c) Harvest displaced existing armor stones along the harbor side of Breakwater 1 and reuse in the repairing of Breakwater 1. Refer to Section 35 31 19 BREAKWATER REPAIRS for requirements pertaining to reuse of existing armor stones.

OPTION ITEM WORK:

(2) In accordance with the Contract Drawings and Specifications perform all necessary option item work to complete the following:

(a) Repair damaged Breakwater 2 by dismantling and removing existing armor stones to specified elevation as shown on the Contract Drawings, to include crest and side slopes. Using existing and new armor stones rebuild breakwater as specified in Section 35 31 19 BREAKWATER REPAIRS and the Contract Drawings.

(a) Repair damaged Breakwater 3 by dismantling and removing existing armor stones to specified elevation as shown on the Contract Drawings, to include crest and side slopes. Using existing and new armor stones rebuild breakwater as specified in Section 35 31 19 BREAKWATER REPAIRS and the Contract Drawings.

(c) If either option item, or both, are exercised for Breakwaters 2 and 3, perform mobilization and demobilization as necessary to complete option item work.

d. The project description and requirements are further defined in the Contract Drawings and Specifications.
