FY20 Maintenance Dredging N. Manitou Island

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Detroit District is seeking contractors for the FY20 North Manitou Island Maintenance Dredging.  The contractor will mobilize dredge to North Manitou Island Harbor and dredge to the limits delineated on the plans.  Estimated base quantities at 20,000 cubic yards.  Placement of dredged materials along shoreline is as follows: beginning at a point 600 ft., south of the dock, then extending 3000 ft. south as shown on plans and in accordance with the scope of work.  Demobilize once work is completed. 

Special Note: North Manitou Island is only accessible by boat.  All National Park Service personnel and support operations are dependent upon this dock access.  Preservation of natural and cultural resources and the ability to operate and maintain Park facilities is dependent upon safe access to North Manitou Island. Visitor access is dependent upon the safe operation of the ferry concession. Without dredging, the Islands would need to be closed.
