Additionally, the contract would include concrete rehabilitation on the Vertical Lift Gate (VLG) pit wall at Eisenhower Lock. Both locks are in Massena, New York.

The VLG pit at Eisenhower lock is located approximately 80’ below the working surface and the wall extends up approximately 35’ and is about 80’ wide.

All locations will require a crane or and/or lifts to access the areas safely. All demolition of damaged concrete (i.e.  chipping, saw cutting, etc.) will be completed by the SLSDC and/or others prior to this scope of work. Work shall be completed between on or about January 18, 2021 and March 5, 2021.
