About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District, is seeking a contractor for the Narraguagus River Federal Navigation Project dredging in Milbridge, Maine. The project involves dredging approximately 150,000 cubic yards of predominantly fine-grained material from shoaled areas of the channel and anchorage areas using a mechanical dredge. The work will require transporting dredged material via scows to the Douglas Island Disposal Site, located about 2.5 miles from the project site. Contractors must be capable of meeting a production rate of at least 40,000 cubic yards per 30 consecutive calendar days. The solicitation will be an Unrestricted Invitation for Bid (IFB) under NAICS code 237990, with a size standard of $37 million, and will be available online through the System of Award Management website in January 2025.
The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designations, meaning all responsible sources may submit bids. The estimated construction cost ranges between $1,000,000 to $5,000,000, with a project timeline spanning approximately five months. Dredging operations are scheduled to commence on November 1, 2024, with all work required to be completed by April 1, 2025. The project involves creating channels with varying depths, including an 11-foot deep, 150-foot-wide entrance channel, a 9-foot deep, 100-foot-wide channel, and multiple anchorages at different depths. Contractors will be expected to dredge to the authorized project depths, with one foot of allowable overdepth. Interested parties can direct additional questions to the Contract Specialist, Heather M. Skorik, via email.
