Principal Characteristics of the Scope of Work: Removal and disposal of objects from within the Delaware River channel of the Philadelphia to Sea Deep Draft Navigation Project.

The contractor shall also bid on providing these same survey services. These objects are within the main Delaware River, Philadelphia to Sea navigation channel. Previous similar removal actions have encountered boulders, large trees, large concrete channel marker/buoy blocks and other miscellaneous debris and have been successfully lifted and removed by grapple style buckets. The contractor shall supply all required floating mechanical plant, operating personal and necessary miscellaneous equipment to locate, remove, and dispose of large objects recently found on USACE multibeam hydrographic surveys. The contractor must be able to successfully reach depths of up to 55 feet at high tide and have a minimum 100-ton lift capacity with the ability to spud down and hold position in 50FT of water in the current and conditions of the Delaware River. The contractor shall be required to submit an overall safety plan (IAW EM 385-1-1), equipment specific lift plan and work plan for USACE approval as part of the SATOC process.
