The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Sacramento District (SPK) anticipates solicitation of a requirement for design-bid-build (DBB) construction services to be performed in support of the Pioneer Bridge Levee Improvements at Sacramento, California. The project is anticipated to reduce the risk of levee failure from an erosion related levee breach for approximately 1,000 feet along the Sacramento River. The project is anticipated to include several erosion protection measures located above and below the average low flow water surface elevation (~7 feet NAVD88 as defined) using rock bank protection to include a 3.5-foot-thick lens of launchable Graded Stone C below the water surface to protect the bank from scour and erosion as well as Graded Stone C extended above the water surface to the top of the bank under the Pioneer Bridge section. The project is anticipated to include a 3.5-foot-thick lens of soil-rock mix above the water surface to protect the bank from wave wash generated by boat wakes and wind waves, demolition and removal of the existing upper bank material under the I-80 Pioneer Bridge section to provide a suitable foundation for the Graded Stone C, and In-stream Woody Material (IWM) to be placed below the water line to create in-stream cover for fisheries throughout the seasons and provide flow deflection along the bank. The Government anticipates construction work will be performed in the Summer and Fall of 2025 / from June 2025 to October 2025. In-water work may only be performed from 1 July 2025 to 31 October 2025. All work / construction activities must be complete by 180 days from Notice to Proceed.
