GENERAL SCOPE: The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Sacramento District (SPK) anticipates a potential requirement to construct Folsom Dam Raise Dike 7 in Folsom, CA. Dike 7 is an earthen embankment near the southern end of Folsom Reservoir that spans a steeply sloping saddle in the reservoir rim. The existing embankment has a crest length of about 930 feet long, a height of up to 38 feet, and an approximate existing crest elevation of about 482.84 feet, North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). The Folsom Dam Raise Project will raise the existing embankment at Dike 7 by approximately 3.5 feet to a nominal crest elevation of 486.34 feet, NAVD88. The raise will be achieved by placement of a reinforced concrete floodwall along the crest near the upstream edge. An aggregate surface course will be placed on the crest downstream of the floodwall as a road surface. Riprap and bedding will be placed along the upstream slope for wind-wave erosion protection. The reinforced concrete floodwall may be constructed using conventional cast-in-place methods or using a slipform methods. To access Dike 7, the Contractor must use an existing temporary access road from Folsom Point Road at Dike 8 to the work site. The entrance prior to the temporary access road is accessed by other contractors requiring coordination to share the road and meet vehicle capacity restrictions during heavy recreation season. The Contractor will initiate a security program in coordination with Government's existing security procedures at job mobilization. Contractor personnel will need to obtain security clearances to access site without escort. Escorting duties will be the responsibility of the contractor. Maintain security throughout construction period until acceptance of work by the Contracting Officer. The potential requirement may result in a firm-fixed-price Invitation for Bid issued approximately Mar/Apr 2025. If solicited, the Government intends to award the anticipated requirement approximately Aug/Oct 2025.
