Baker Bay Pile Dike Repair   3

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Northwestern Division, Portland District (CENWP) intends to solicit construction firms who are interested in submitting a competitive firm-fixed-price bid for this project. This announcement is for the Baker Bay Pile Dike Repair project in Pacific County Washington and Clatsop County Oregon.

The work includes mobilization/demobilization, establishment of access to West Sand Island, removal of existing timber piles on dike BB0.28 (but not on BB0.28W), placement of rock on dike BB0.28 from the West Sand Island shoreline to the Federal Navigation Channel and on BB0.28W, placement of a dynamic revetment on West Sand Island, installation of marker piles, and incidental related work.

The work site is located at West Sand Island and the adjacent Baker Bay Federal Navigation Channel pile dikes, named BB0.28, BB0.56, BB0.70, and BB0.86.

Contractor access to West Sand Island will be either from the barge landing area between BB0.70 and BB0.86 or from the footprint of BB0.28 as shown on the drawings. It is the view of the Government that any dredging of sediment adjacent to West Sand Island to allow for access is not beneficial to the Baker Bay system. Furthermore, it is the Government's intent that any dredging within the allowed area, as specified in Section 31 00 10.00 25, be limited to the minimum amount necessary to allow sufficient access for construction of a material offload facility.

The anticipated completion date for physical construction is 31 October 2026.

The solicitation will be issued as an Invitation for Bids (IFB). This acquisition will result in a single firm-fixed-price contract.

The estimated magnitude of construction is between $10,000,000 and $25,000,000.

This procurement is unrestricted/full and open competition. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this action is 237990; Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction with a small business size standard of $45M.
