A response is not required at this time. The USACE Buffalo District is currently preparing a solicitation to award a contract for a project at LaSalle Park in the City of Buffalo, Erie County, New York, United States. The contract being prepared is to provide storm damage protection of the LaSalle Park shoreline. Protection measures being planned involves the construction of damage reduction measures and protection to approximately 1,355 feet of Lake Erie shoreline along Lake Erie and the Niagara River at LaSalle Park. This area has been deteriorating due to the continued wave action from the lake. The project has historic importance as LaSalle Park houses the Colonel F.G. Ward Pumping Station, a historic landmark, and water filtration plant which supplies water to the residents of the city of Buffalo. The concrete seawall, stone-filled timber crib, and timber pile foundation fronting the pump station and park has deteriorated significantly over the past 50 years. It requires measures to protect the city's water supply, pumping station and filtration plant, park, and access road. Should the current shoreline protection fail, the operation of the pumping station and filtration plant is jeopardized, which impacts water supply to the city of Buffalo. Public access to the adjacent park would also be curtailed. This project is expected to be of long duration and is considered a priority project due to its impact and risk to the water supply of Buffalo.
