General Description The St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation (SLSDC) operates the Eisenhower and Snell Locks located in Massena, New York. Each lock consists of large concrete structures with multiple drains flowing to a “Dewatering Pit”. Each Dewatering Pit contains (2) fully rebuilt 100 HP Fairbanks Morse pumps and (1) smaller 10 HP Fairbanks Morse pump. The larger pumps (100 HP) are used primarily for dewatering activities during the winter maintenance season; these pumps have been fully rebuilt and are not part of this solicitation. The smaller pump (10 HP) is used year around to maintain removal of normal water leakage making its way into the lock structure and is referred to as the "maintenance" pump. The smaller (10 HP) pump at both locks is original and has been in service since 1959. Over time SLSDC has noticed times where a larger "maintenance" pump would be beneficial during certain lock operations. SLSDC is going to increase the size of the maintenance pump from 10 HP to 40 HP. This solicitation is to furnish and deliver Two (2) Vertical Turbine, 40 HP, Wet Pit Pumps to replace the (2) 10 HP Fairbanks Morse pumps. The SLSDC desires to upgrade from the 10 HP pumps to 40 HP pumps to gain better performance and efficiency when the pumps are operating. The pumps shall operate under the following conditions and with the noted requirements as a minimum unless stated otherwise. The pumps shall be delivered to the SLSDC Maintenance Facility located at 251 Fregoe Road, Massena, New York. Reference drawings/files are provided with this solicitation. The attached drawings are for reference only. Vendors need to craft their proposal in accordance with the written specifications and requirements described below. 2.
