Additionally, the project will include the purchase of two loaders for the processing and movement of breakbulk cargo.

Activities to be performed

The Port of Newport intends to grade nine acres of land adjacent to the port's existing International Terminal, fence approximately three acres of land for increased security, and purchase two loaders to move cargo between the two locations to increase laydown and operational capacity.

The project includes four components.

Component 1: Design

City permitting and contract bidding, site investigations, bathymetric survey, geotechnical and geophysical surveys, landside utility and roadway surveys.

Support local, state, and federal permitting processes to include the grading permit and stormwater permit.

Complete design for the grading and fencing components.

Create bid package, request for proposals (RFPs), and statement of work, evaluate responses, and award contracts for the grading and fencing scopes of work.
