Technical Services for a Seawall Study at the Tongue Point Job Corps Center The US Department of Labor, Office of Job Corps Acquisition Services, has a requirement for a qualified firm to provide technical services for a seawall study at the Tongue Point Job Corps Center in Astoria, Oregon. THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 10.002(b) (2) (i), this notice is issued for the purpose of conducting market research. Market research is being conducted to determine if there are potential businesses with the capacity and experience to perform the required work. This Notice is not to be misconstrued as an Invitation for Bid or Request for Proposal. There is no solicitation at this time. This request for capability information does not constitute a request for proposals; submission of any information in response to this market survey is purely voluntary; the government assumes no financial responsibility for any costs incurred. The full extent of the work will be described in the solicitation, which may follow at a later date. However, a summary of the services to be performed is provided as follows. The Tongue Point Job Corps Center (TPJCC) in Astoria, Oregon, uses a seawall, two piers, and a seaplane ramp that were installed by the Navy in 1943. The seawall is composed of an outboard timber apron, and a continuous timber sheet pile bulkhead with timber wales. The seaplane ramp is constructed of a concrete deck over steel H- piles. The TPJCC Seamanship Trade program uses one pier to access their training ships and the seaplane ramp is currently only used as a boat ramp for vehicles putting boats in and out of the water. A recent observation of these structures found that there is extensive damage throughout the bulkhead structural system. Extensive decay was found on members of the bulkhead with existing drain holes, the lower elevation of timber sheet piles, the upper and lower horizontal wales and diagonal braces. The concrete upper portion of the seaplane ramp is in good condition, however the steel H- piles below the water have sustained significant corrosive section loss. Geotechnical investigations indicate that the site is subject to settlement, global lateral spreading and liquefaction. The intent of this study is to perform the required subsurface investigations and structural assessments of the existing infrastructure in order to outline the work needed to provide the Department of Labor (Department) with the loading limitations for the existing conditions, short- and long-term options for repair and replacement, as well as estimated cost and permitting requirements for each option. The estimated price range is between $100,000 and $250,000. Firms interested in this requirement are requested to submit a statement of qualifications.
