The New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) proposes to perform maintenance dredging of portions of the New York and New Jersey Harbor, Port Jersey Channel, Federal Navigation Project located in Hudson County, New Jersey. The dredged material would be placed at the Historic Area Remediation Site (HARS), approximately 5 miles east of Sandy Hook, New Jersey. The proposed maintenance dredging would remove approximately 370,000 cubic yards (CY) of selected critical shoals from the Port Jersey Channel. Dredging would be required to a depth of -50 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) plus 2 foot allowable overdepth. The dredged material consists of primarily of silt, sand and clay. Due to restrictions in the Water Quality Certificate, the proposed work will require using a mechanical dredge with a clamshell environmental bucket. Additional, multiple ocean-going split hull barges and tug boats will be needed to perform the work during the dredging, transportation, and placement operations. The dredged material will be required to meet all federal, state, and local criteria of the government agencies with jurisdiction at the dredging and placement sites. Once the contract is awarded, the contractor will be required to commence work within five (5) calendar days after receipt of the Notice to Proceed. When dredging over the Passaic Valley Sewerage Commission Utility Corridor, the contractor will be required to maintain an integrated production rate of at least 1,000 cubic yards per calendar day for the dredging, transportation, and final placement of the material. Dredging everywhere else in the channel, the contractor will be required to maintain an integrated production rate of at least 6,000 cubic yards per calendar day for the dredging, transportation, and final placement of the material. The presence of dredging equipment in the channel will impact ship traffic and it is necessary to maintain this production rate while minimizing the duration of this impact. The work is estimated to cost between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000. It is the intention of the government to award in June 2020 and the proposed work is anticipated to take place between June 2020 and Jan 2021. Liquidated damages of $2,144 per calendar day of delay will be assessed to the contractor until all work under the contract is accepted as complete. This is an unrestricted procurement.
