SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE FOR FY25 EAGLE ISLAND CELL 2 IMPROVEMENTS BRUNSWICK COUNTY, NC This is a Sources Sought/Request for Information only. This is NOT a Solicitation Announcement, nor is it a Request for Proposal. This request does not obligate the Government in any contract award. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, is conducting research to determine the market capabilities of potential contractors. The project includes work at Cell 2 of the Government owned Eagle Island Disposal Area. The main features of work include raising approximately 2,000 linear feet of the west portion of Cell 2 to EL. 46 feet NAVD88, repairing the riser towers for Spillways 4 and 5, raising a few bents of the timber cribbing structures associated with the outfall pipe for Spillway 4, and ditching, draining, and dewatering of the interior of the Eagle Island Cell 2 disposal area. The west portion of Cell 2 that will be raised has an average crest height of approximately EL. 37 feet NAVD88 and corresponds with approximate Stations 190+00 to 210+00. The existing coffer berms around spillways 4 and 5, as well as the interior of Cell 2 and Cell 1, can be used as borrow for raising the west portion of the dike to EL. 46 feet. Due to the high water table and soft soil conditions, equipment suitable for wetland or marsh conditions or the use of mats to support the equipment will be required. Any vegetation present within Cell 2 will need to be cleared during the ditching operations. Construction and restoration of any necessary access ramps used to provide equipment access inside the Cell 2 disposal area will be the Contractor's responsibility.
