Barge Canal Pump Station - Structural Repairs

Mattamuskeet Association, a private non-profit in Hyde County, North Carolina, is requesting quotes for structural and site repairs at the Barge Canal Pump Station (Site MA-19), with quotes due November 17, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. EST. The contract incorporates the FEMA Federal Provisions Addendum, including domestic preferences for procurements, and carries federal compliance requirements for equal employment opportunity, contract work hours and safety standards, Clean Air and Water Act compliance, and suspension and debarment verification.

The work addresses Hurricane Matthew damage from October 2016 across four jobs: pump control building door replacement, intake-bulkhead cap replacement, intake walkway handrail repair, and pump intake grate repair. The scope is limited to structural, access, and site-related work and excludes any pump or pump equipment repairs. Contractors must carry workers' compensation with statutory limits and at least $1,000,000 in employers' liability, commercial general liability of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence with a $2,000,000 aggregate, and business automobile liability of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence. Subcontracting requires prior approval, and the contractor secures all licenses and permits at its own expense.

Pricing is lump sum for each job, with optional volume discounts if one contractor is awarded all four and demonstrates timely completion capability. Award will rest on qualifications, competence, and past experience, with cost as a secondary consideration, though the association states a goal of awarding at the lowest offered price. Award is anticipated within 60 days of quote opening, and quotes remain binding for 60 calendar days. The successful contractor begins within 14 days of award and works continuously, except for inclement weather or equipment breakdowns. Payment is made within 15 days of invoice approval by Operations Manager Wilson Daughtry, who holds final authority over completion and payment.

A pre-bid meeting takes place November 10, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at the Hyde County Airport parking area, and written questions are due November 12, 2026, by 5:00 p.m. EST. Quotes are submitted by email or U.S. mail to the association's office in Engelhard, North Carolina, on the enclosed Contractor Pricing Submission Form.

The association also issued a separate RFQ #2026-10-20 for sheet pile wall replacement at the 2nd Avenue Pump Station (Site MA-49), with the same November 17 quote deadline and November 10 pre-bid meeting.
