Project Grant

Overview

Grant Description
Award Purpose
The project will fund the following construction elements. Riverfront work will include replacing the surface of the existing wharf, constructing a second riverfront wharf to be used exclusively for vessel transfer of wind energy cargos, and reinforcing shoreline stabilization.

Turning basin work will include rehabilitating the concrete dock cap, bollard and fender installation, and replacing roughly 390 feet of failed sheet pile. Small boat maritime readiness slip construction will include demolishing and rehabilitating an existing small boat slip to be used by harbor assist vessels.

Shore power infrastructure will include removing existing overhead lines and providing shore power to the riverfront wharfs. Activities to be performed. The project rehabilitates and reinforces end of life infrastructure to increase vessel and cargo handling capacity, improves efficiency of managing bulk materials used in local road infrastructure projects and the manufacture of building materials, and improves the handling of steel coils and plate used in regional automotive manufacturing.

Adds shore power to reduce vehicle and vessel idling, provides new docking capacity to harbor assist vessels to increase the port's responsiveness against climate change related weather events, and adds dedicated vessel berthing capacity for the marine transport of wind energy components manufactured at the Port of Monroe. The project has three components.

Component 1: Grant Administration Project Management. Daily activities to advance all aspects of the project through the pre-award phase requirements process and throughout the grant life cycle to include project close out activities. Administration expenses for staff costs. Community outreach required by public comment periods related to the critical areas permitting process.

Component 2: Design and Permitting. Preliminary through final design for riverfront turning basin, small boat slip, and shore power elements. Environmental permitting and related activities. Construction management.

Component 3: Construction. Element 1: Riverfront. Remove and replace the surface of the existing wharf to provide increased stability and strength to accommodate the increasing heavy steel loads that the port is discharging. 12 inch reinforced concrete. Installation of crane pad. Construct a second identical riverfront wharf that will be prioritized for wind energy components. Reinforce shoreline stabilization to correct deteriorating conditions to existing riprap caused by increasing climate effects related to water levels and ice conditions.

Element 2: Turning basin. Repair and rehabilitate approximately 1050 feet of concrete dock cap. Demolition of concrete dock cap. Install bollards adjacent to the concrete dock and the south wall within the turning basin. Remove and replace 390 feet of failed sheet pile. Install fendering system adjacent to concrete dock and south wall. Fill and cap material to improve the south wall will consist of crushed asphalt 21AA.

Element 3: Small boat slip. Demolish and rehabilitate an existing small boat slip to be used exclusively by harbor assist vessels. Shore power installation underground. Sheet pile installation. Dredge new dock area. Site work and restoration. Concrete cap installation to improve the walkway around the slip.

Element 4: Shore power. Remove existing overhead lines and provide shore power to the riverfront wharfs. Includes new conduits, conductors, and terminal enclosures.
