About this opportunity

The U.S. Coast Guard Civil Engineering Unit Providence seeks dredging and pile removal services at the Cutter Eagle berthing area at New London City Pier in Connecticut, with bids opened October 22, 2026. The procurement is a Total Small Business set-aside under an Invitation for Bid (IFB 70Z0G126BSLISSW02), with an estimated value between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000.

Place of performance is New London, Connecticut. The contractor must dredge approximately 3,700 cubic yards of material to a depth of –17.0 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) plus 2.0 feet overdredge allowance, remove or cut approximately 50 existing piles below the waterline (cutting at –21.0 feet MLLW if full removal is not feasible), and dispose of all spoils at an upland site—offshore disposal is not permitted due to environmental sample analysis. The contractor must maintain navigation through the channel at all times during operations. Dredging is constrained to October 1 through March 1 annually per Connecticut environmental restrictions protecting Winter Flounder spawning and diadromous fish migration.

The contractor must provide pre- and post-dredge surveys, mobilization, demobilization, construction submittals, and environmental controls compliant with NPDES permits and hazardous waste management. Two government-approved upland disposal facilities are available: Green Earth (Griswold, Connecticut) and Clean Earth. Bidders provide a cost per cubic yard for dredging; this unit rate applies to any quantity adjustments within the limits specified on plan sheets. The contractor will be compensated for actual dredge material removed and disposed. A Base Bid Item covers dredging and removal of non-coated/non-treated piles; an Optional Item addresses additional disposal costs for coated/treated piling if encountered. A 20% bid guarantee and Performance and Payment bonds are required. The NAICS code is 23799 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction); PSC is Z1KF (Maintenance of Dredging Facilities). Three amendments were issued (October 8, 13, and 16, 2026), clarifying disposal site options, revising the bid opening date to October 22 at 2:00 PM EST, and updating Item 0002 to clarify additional costs for coated/treated pile disposal. Seven offers were received, ranging from $1,949,950 to $5,890,000.

AMENDMENT 0001 Posted October 08, 2026

Eagle Pier New Dredging (FY26) at New London’s City Pier, CT (NEW LONDON COUNTY), PSN #24014900.

Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, materials, and all other items and services required to perform dredging of a new area immediately south of CGC EAGLE’s berth at New London’s City Pier. The intent is to deepen the area to allow tugboats to assist the cutter for mooring/unmooring at all tide levels. Requirements of the design specify dredging to a depth of -17.0’ at Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) +2.0’ over dredging allowance. This equates to approximately 3,700 cubic yards (CY) of dredge spoils to remove to an upland disposal site. Offshore disposal is not permitted due to environmental sample analysis of the dredge area. There is an environmental time of year restriction in Connecticut that only permits dredging activities between October 1st and March 1st.

SPECIAL NOTES: The contractor shall conduct dredging operations so that navigation through the channel is possible at all times. The scope of work also includes removals of approximately 50 piles that remain below the waterline. Any piles that cannot be fully removed are to be cut at -21.0’ MLLW. Dredge quantity of 3,700 CY. This estimate is based on an average of the past annual dredging and surveys. The Contractor shall provide a cost for dredging per cubic yard. That per cubic yard cost will be used for any necessary contract cost adjustment resulting from dredging more or less than the estimated 3,700 cubic yards, within the limits of dredge. Contractor will be compensated for actual quantity of dredge material removed and disposed, within the limits of dredge, as shown on the plan sheets.  Dredge disposal site location is to be determined by conditions of treated/non-treated piles for Base bid item and Option Bid item.

The estimated value of the procurement is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. A 20% bid guarantee is required. Performance and Payment bonds will be required. The performance period is estimated to be 300 calendar days from issuance of Notice to Proceed.
This acquisition is issued pursuant to FAR Part 14 Sealed Bidding and is 100% Set-Aside for Small Business concerns.
