FY22 Quillayute Hydraulic Maintenance Dredging Project Details:

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Seattle District requires hydraulic pipeline maintenance dredging of the Quillayute River Federal navigation channel in La Push, WA. The volume of sediment to be dredged from the Channel (outer bar and inner) and the Boat Basin Access Lanes (USCG, main access lane and Fuel Dock) is approximately 65,000 Cubic Yards (CY). Placement of dredged material from the outer channel/bar will be on Site A (initially bermed for dewatering and then added to First Beach) and dredged material from the rest of the channel and boat basin access lanes will be placed on Site B (Rialto/Quileute Spit).  It is anticipated the work would be performed in the Fall-Winter of 2022-2023.

This performance window is during the worst storm season and worst marine and river conditions. The dredging areas are fully exposed to strong and severe river and marine conditions. Quillayute River runs very fast with lots of woody debris coming down the river. Marine conditions are subject to winter storms that hit this location. Contractor should expect difficult dredging conditions and frequent equipment/pipeline damage. In-water work window starts 1 September 2022 and ends 28 February 23. Dredging may commence after 1 September 2022 and after award. All in-water work must be completed by 28 February 2023.
