About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District has issued a Special Notice regarding a federal contract opportunity for berm repair at the Military Ocean Terminal at Sunny Point (MOTSU) in Brunswick County, North Carolina. The notice pertains to a site preparation project involving earthen berms that serve as barriers between ammunition and explosive storage areas. The project encompasses three primary locations: North Rail Holding Yard, Ammunition Pads, and the South Rail Holding Yard. Work will include heavy tree clearing, sediment and erosion control, potential wetland mitigation, and significant earthwork to ensure compliance with specific military safety regulations. The contract is intended to address deficient earthen berms and bring them into alignment with Department of the Army Pamphlet 385-64 and Defense Environmental Safety and Risk guidelines.

The government intends to consolidate the rail spur berms and pad berms under a single solicitation, which will be set aside exclusively for small businesses. This consolidation is deemed to be in the best interest of the government and meets the requirements of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 7.107. Contractors interested in this opportunity must be prepared for a comprehensive project involving work across multiple areas, potentially spanning one to two miles.

Eligible small businesses in the heavy and civil engineering construction sector (NAICS 237990) will be able to compete for this contract. The project will involve complex site preparation, including potential environmental mitigation and significant earthwork to improve existing berm infrastructure at the military terminal.

AE locations are categorized into three general areas: North Rail Holding Yard, Ammunition Pads, and the South Rail Holding Yard. The project may include but is not limited to heavy tree clearing, sediment and erosion control, potential wetland mitigation (primarily in the North Rail Holding Yard) and significant earthwork to bring the earthen berms back in compliance with DA PAM 385-64 and DESR 6055.9 regarding minimum requirements for explosive safe. The work includes rail spur berms and pad berms, some of which sit approximately one (1) to two (2) miles apart.
