The City of Milton, Florida has issued Invitation to Bid (ITB-2025-06) for the Russell Harber Dock Replacement project, a comprehensive infrastructure rehabilitation initiative funded through FEMA (Project Number 160536). The procurement involves complete demolition and replacement of existing dock infrastructure, including removal of wooden piles, existing dock sections, and installation of new composite pile-supported floating dock sections. Specific project deliverables include a new 6'6" wide by 30' long dock manufactured with welded aluminum frames, fiberglass reinforced plastic piles, and expanded polystyrene flotation units. The project requires selective salvage of existing components such as the gangway and riprap for potential reuse, and mandates strict environmental and site management protocols including ground and surface water control, dust management, and potential hazardous material handling. The bid is due on June 4, 2025, with the opportunity initially posted on May 4, 2025, and requires contractors to follow detailed technical specifications outlined in the project documents prepared by AMI Consulting Engineers. Contractors must demonstrate capability to execute precise installation techniques, adhere to ASTM International, Florida Department of Transportation, and American Welding Society guidelines, and restore the work area to pristine condition upon completion. While the documents do not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises, the project appears to follow standard municipal bidding procedures that typically encourage diverse contractor participation. No incumbent vendors are directly mentioned in the available documentation. The project requires specialized marine construction expertise, with contractors needing to demonstrate technical proficiency in dock infrastructure replacement, familiarity with FEMA-funded recovery projects, and capability to work in sensitive marine environments. Although specific budget allocations are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the project, including demolition, new infrastructure installation, and environmental considerations, suggests a substantial investment. The engineering planset and technical specifications indicate a professionally managed project with detailed requirements that will likely attract experienced marine construction and infrastructure rehabilitation firms with demonstrable capabilities in complex coastal restoration projects.
