Townshend Lake Concrete Wall Scour Repair

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District is issuing a presolicitation notice for the Concrete Wall Scour Repair project, located at the Townshend Dam, Townshend, Vermont. The project is planned to be issued in April 2018, and will be set aside for Small Businesses. The construction period will extend over Summer and Fall 2018. The estimated magnitude of this project is between $100,000 and $250,000.
The location of work to be performed under this contract is the Townshend Dam, located in Townshend, Vermont.

A void (scour pocket) was identified in September 2016 during an underwater inspection near the left concrete gravity wall at the outlet works exit structure at Townshend Dam. The potential failures that could result from an increased advancement of the scour pocket could affect the structural integrity of the concrete gravity wall and the slope stability of the embankment material. The cause of the scour pocket is assumed to be hydraulic based.

This project consists of the following components:

• Dewatering the upstream conduit
• Removal of loose debris
• Drilling holes for dowel installation into surrounding concrete and bedrock
• Installing dowels and grouting into place
• Installing forms along front of "plug"
• Pumping concrete into the void
