The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District will be issuing an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for improvement dredging of the Great Chebeague Island Federal Navigation Project (FNP) located in Chebeague Island, Maine. This procurement will be 100% Small Business Set-Aside requiring a mechanical dredge to perform the work. The NAICS code for this procurement is 237990 with a size standard of $37M. The solicitation requirements and contract documents to include instructions for submission and the response date will be available on or about early late March 2023. The construction will occur in the winter of 2023 and is expected to take approximately 2 months to complete. The estimated construction cost is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. Any responsible source meeting the required standards may submit a bid to be considered by the New England District. The proposed work consists of dredging approximately 4,000 cubic yards (cy) (including required dredge and overdepth) to specified depths and side slopes of mixed grained sands and silts from the 10-foot channel/turning area and 8-foot turning basin (with some cobble in the 8-foot turning basin), including a one-foot allowable overdepth in both areas. The mechanical dredge (use of clam shell buckets will be prohibited) will remove material from the channel/turning area and turning basin and transport the material in scows to the Portland Disposal Site (approximately 15 nautical miles away to the south). The available dredging window is between 1 November 2023 and 31 December 2023. The work will require coordination around the tide cycles.
