St. Croix National Scenic Riverway - Replace Fence

The Department of the Interior National Park Service Midwest Region seeks fence replacement and material storage improvements at two St. Croix National Scenic Riverway locations in Wisconsin, with quotations due July 8 at 10:00 AM Central. This is a small business set-aside under FAR Part 13 simplified acquisition procedures.

Place of performance includes the Lower District Shop in Dresser, Wisconsin and Ray's Garage in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin. Work scope at the Lower District Shop comprises removal of 678 linear feet of existing 6-foot chain-link fence and three slide gates, installation of 432 linear feet of new 7-foot K-Klass chain-link fence with 2-inch mesh and 9-gauge galvanized fabric, one 20-foot-wide automated sliding gate with keypad and timer control, one 12-foot steel swing gate, and a material storage area using interlocking concrete bin blocks configured into five 12-foot-by-14-foot bays. Ray's Garage work includes site preparation with 120 cubic yards of imported fill and 130 tons of modified trap rock, plus 303 linear feet of 8-foot-high chain-link fence with an 8-foot-by-20-foot double swing gate with privacy slats. All work must be completed within 90 calendar days of Notice to Proceed and priced as lump sum across two contract line items (CLIN 0010 for Lower District Shop, CLIN 0020 for Ray's Garage as optional). Ground-disturbing activities at the Lower District Shop require direct oversight by a National Park Service archaeologist or Tribal cultural specialist due to cultural resources proximity.
