Modify the sources sought notice for the runway 14-32 repairand rehabilitation, NAS patuxent river, MD

NAS Patuxent River requires adequate and reliable airfield pavements, lighting, signage, and related facilities that meet Navy criteria and design standards. Runway 14-32 serve a variety of high performance jet aircraft and large transports such as the P-8A (Boeing 737) and E-6 (Boeing 707) based and tested at the airfield.



The runway repairs include rehabilitation of the pavements and overruns to meet current standards and to ensure another 20 to 30 years of runway service. This runways keel is projected to have a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) of 41 in 2019 without repair and will be milled and overlayed in 2016 as required to meet airfield standards. The edge lights will be repaired concurrent with keel and shoulder repairs along with replacement conduit and handholds as required.

The thresholds will receive preventative maintenance and the 14 overrun will be reconstructed as needed after the demolition of the abandoned catapult #159. While the runway is out of service for repair, arresting gear slabs will be reconstructed and runway markings will be re-applied. Grading and drainage surrounding the 14-32 runway will also be repaired to correct safety concerns such as sinkholes, drainage issues, and significant erosion adjacent to the runway.



This project will include repairs to the TC-7 catapult access apron as well as repairs to the Runway 20 overrun. These facilities are located within the primary surface of 14-32 and repairs will be made concurrent with runway repairs so as to limit closures and airfield down-time.





This project will be executed while maintaining operations of the adjacent existing airfield.
