About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District intends to solicit fixed-price proposals to complete seismic and safety upgrades to the Willamette Falls Locks in Clackamas County, Oregon. The project scope involves installing rock anchors in the gate monoliths and concrete walls to increase stability and reduce risks of uncontrolled water release from the locks in the event of an earthquake. Proposals will be evaluated using a best value tradeoff selection process, with evaluation criteria stated in the forthcoming RFP. The solicitation is scheduled for release on June 6, 2022, with proposals due July 8, 2022.

The contract will utilize a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 237990, Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction, with a size standard of $39.5 million. The estimated cost of the project is between $5 million and $10 million, to be completed over a period of performance from October 2022 through January 2025. Plans and specifications will be posted to SAM.gov upon solicitation issuance. The PSC code for the work is Z2KA for Repair or Alteration of Dams.

SYNOPSIS

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Portland District intends to solicit construction firms who are interested in submitting a competitive firm-fixed-price proposal for this project. This announcement is for Willamette Falls Locks (WFL) Seismic and Safety Upgrades.

REASON FOR UPDATE

A DRAFT version of the solicitation is provided as an attachment for your review. The plans and specification in the draft solicitation are subject to change. Site visit information will be updated and provided at the time the solicitation is released. We anticipate advertising on or about 03 August 2022. 

Project Scope: The project is located at the Willamette Falls Locks in Clackamas County, Oregon. This project will provide minimum repairs to reduce risks of an uncontrolled release of the Willamette Falls pool in the event of a seismic event and meets the constraint of maintaining the existing flow within the aquatic corridor near and around the Willamette Falls for Endangered Species Act related concerns. The gate monolith seismic retrofits will be accomplished with vertical rock anchors at a spacing and size to increase the downward force on the masonry layers. The increased downward force would increase the inter-layer friction to resist sliding while not adversely affecting the overturning capabilities of the monolith. Rock anchors will be installed for the concrete wall retrofit and will be the same as the anchors for the gate monolith retrofit.

Contract Period of Performance: The estimated Period of Performance for this contract is October 2022 to January 2025.
