Amendment-Modified Central City Industry Day – Fort Worth District Special Notice

Modified Central City Industry Day – Fort Worth District

Special Notice

The Modified Central City Project serves to provide $2.4 billion of continued flood protection for the citizens and properties within the City and the 2,400 acres of established Fort Worth neighborhoods. The project has various components including an approximate 8,400-foot bypass channel, three flood gates, one pump station, two dams (Samuels Avenue and Marine Creek), and valley storage mitigation sites (Gateway Park, Ham Branch, Riverside Park, Rockwood Park West, Samuels Avenue, and University Drive) to provide flood risk management functions along the Clear Fork and West Fork of the Trinity River. The project restores the design level of flood protection to the existing system by realigning the river and adding closure gates. The proposed habitat development plans will provide substantially more wetlands, riparian woodlands and stream habitat than unavoidably impacted by the project.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Fort Worth District is hosting an in-person Industry Day for the Modified Central City project on March 28, 2024 from 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM.

The purpose of the event is to present the Central City project to industry and improve the understanding of Government requirements and industry capabilities.  Potential offerors can judge whether they are interested or how they can satisfy the Government’s requirements for the project.  This enhances the Government’s ability to obtain quality supplies and services, to include construction, at reasonable prices, and increase efficiency in proposal preparation, proposal evaluation, negotiation, and contract award.

This event is open to all large and small businesses interested in working with the USACE Fort Worth District.  The morning will include presentations from USACE, Tarrant Regional Water District, and the City of Fort Worth followed by lunch on your own and an opportunity to visit some specific sites within the project in the afternoon through a self-guided driving tour.  USACE and TRWD representatives will be at those sites from 1:00-3:00 PM.
