About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District is seeking dredging services for the Shrewsbury River Federal Navigation Project in New Jersey. Contractors will be evaluated based on their experience performing similar dredging and beach placement projects, as well as their dredging equipment capabilities and safety record. Contractors must be able to remove approximately 45,000 cubic yards of sand from the river to a depth of -8 or -6 feet MLLW, and place the dredged material along the shoreline of Far Rockaway, NY within production rates of 2,000 cubic yards per day. The pre-solicitation notice questionnaire response deadline is May 9, 2023.
There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The primary NAICS code is 237990 and PSC code is D301. Work is estimated to cost between $1-5 million and will be awarded without incumbency. Contractors must demonstrate experience conducting environmental monitoring and using the USACE Resident Management System, and have the capacity to dredge and pump a minimum 2,000 cubic yards of sand per day to complete the work on schedule.

Background Information
The New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) proposes to perform maintenance dredging of Shrewsbury River, New Jersey Federal Navigation Project. The sand would be dredged from the sandy portions of the north and south branches of Shrewsbury River and subsequently placed along the Far Rockaway, NY Beach shoreline per the plans and specifications. The proposed maintenance dredging would remove approximately 45,000 cubic yards of sand from the Shrewsbury River. Dredging would be required to a depth of -8 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) plus 2 feet allowable overdepth and -6 feet MLLW plus 2 feet allowable overdepth. The dredged material is greater than 90% sand.
The proposed work is anticipated to be performed by utilizing a hydraulic dredge. Additionally, barges, tugboats, pipeline and land-based equipment such as dozers, will be needed to perform the work during the dredging and placement activities. The dredging and placement along the shoreline would be required to meet all federal, state, and local criteria required by the government agencies having jurisdiction where the dredging and placement sites are located.
Once the contract is awarded, the contractor will be required to commence work within five (5) calendar days after the date of receipt by him of the notice to proceed and maintain an integrated production rate of at least 2,000 cubic yards per calendar day for the dredging and placement of the dredged sand. The presence of dredging equipment in the channel will impact ship traffic, and it is necessary to maintain this production rate while minimizing the duration of this impact.
The proposed work is anticipated to take place in the fall/winter of 2023/2024. The work is estimated to cost between $1,000,000.00 and $5,000,000.00.

10) Are you familiar with the USACE EM 385-1-1 (Nov. 2014) and all requirements? Deficiencies observed on site will require immediate attention and action to meet all applicable safety codes.
11) Use of USACE Resident Management System (RMS 3.0) will be required for this dredging contract. Do you have experience using the USACE Resident Management System (RMS 3.0) for delivering Submittals, Daily Dredging reports and Pay Estimates?
Equipment
12) What type of dredge equipment do you own and / or operate that is suitable for the work described? Do you own a hydraulic dredge? Please list each piece of equipment capable of performing dredging and pumping sand with beach placement and grading, i.e., dredges, discharge pipeline (specify quantity in linear feet), dozers, front end loaders, forklifts, and/or other equipment needed for beach placement and / or grading the beach as necessary. For each dredge that you list, please specify its size, horsepower, and any other salient characteristics.
13) What length and size of discharge pipeline do you have available for use? Do you own the discharge pipeline?
14) Do you have experience with beach placement and grading of dredged material?
15) Will you be able to meet a production rate of 2,000 cubic yards per calendar day and complete all work?
