About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District is preparing to issue an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for maintenance dredging of the Stony Creek Federal Navigation Project located in Branford, Connecticut. The project involves dredging approximately 51,900 cubic yards of fine-grained/silt material from an 8.17-acre area, which includes a 6-foot deep entrance channel and maneuvering basin. Dredging operations will require a mechanical dredge to remove material and transport it via scow to the Central Long Island Disposal Site, with a required production rate of at least 22,600 cubic yards per 30 consecutive calendar days. The full solicitation will be available online through the System of Award Management (SAM) website in mid-May 2025, with potential bidders directed to contact Brian T. Mannion, the Contract Specialist, for any additional questions. Interested contractors must access the SAM website to download solicitation documents and submit their bids.
The procurement is designated as a Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 237990 with a size standard of $37 million. The estimated construction cost ranges between $1 million and $5 million, making it a moderate-sized federal contract opportunity. Dredging operations are scheduled to commence on October 1, 2025, with all work required to be completed by January 1, 2026, representing a three-month project timeline. The entrance channel is 100 feet wide and extends 800 feet north of the public wharf at Stony Creek, with a maneuvering basin totaling 3.2 acres adjacent to the channel. Contractors will need to demonstrate the capability to efficiently remove and transport the specified volume of material within the strict operational window, with the ability to meet the required cubic yard production rate being a critical performance metric.
