Contractors must transport the dredged material by barge or scow to the Craney Island Dredged Material Management Area (CIDMMA) and discharge it using direct pump-out methods into government-furnished placement sites. Additional responsibilities include operating and maintaining spillways within the CIDMMA, ensuring effluent water meets state water quality requirements, and coordinating with Port of Hampton Roads maritime users to minimize traffic impacts. The solicitation was issued on May 7, 2025, with proposals due by June 11, 2025, and bids were opened on June 12, 2025.
