The Government Is Seeking Qualified, Experienced Sources Capable Of Performing This Type Of Project. the Agency Has Been Tasked To Solicit For And Award A Construction Contract To Restore The Duckabush Estuary Ecosystem. The Project Is A Unique Integration Of Design By The Usace For The Ecosystem Restoration Components And The Washington State Department Of Transportation For The Transportation Components. Key Restoration Elements Are Intended To Restore Natural Tidal And Riverine Processes, Promote Salmon Spawning In The Duckabush River, And Support Other Native Plant And Wildlife Populations. Transportation Elements Include Construction Of An Elevated Roadway On A 1,613-foot Long 34-foot-wide Bridge Upstream From The Existing U.s. Highway 101 (us 101). The Bridge Will Be An 8-span Precast Post-tensioned Splice Girder Design Structure With Drilled Pier/shaft (6-10 Feet Diameter Up To 170 Feet Deep) Foundations Installed In Tidally Inundated Waters. The New Bridge Will Accommodate A New Intersection At Duckabush Road With A Left Turn Pocket From Northbound Us 101 Onto Duckabush Road. Two Culverts Will Be Replaced With Fish-passable Structures: The Us 101 Crossing At Petitjean Creek (north Of The New Widespan Bridge) With A New 81-feet Long 42-foot 10-inch Wide Bridge And The Us 101 Unnamed Tributary Crossing (south Of The New Widespan Bridge) With A Buried Structure. The Project Also Includes Removal Of 1,700 Feet Of The Us 101 Causeway And Two Bridges Across The Estuary, The Removal Of Training Berms Along The River, And The Excavation Of Channels At Or Near Their Historical Configurations. Other Project Elements Include The Placement Of Project-generated Woody Material (engineered Logjams And Anchored Large Wood Structures), The Removal Of The Pre-1930s Remnant Roadbed And Piles, Inclusion Of Parking Lots For Public Access To The Estuary And Tidelands On Each End Of The New Bridge, And Estuarine Wetland And Upland Plantings. attached Is A Preliminary Layout Of The Major Features Of Work. this Performance Window Is Constrained By Restrictions To Work That Occurs In Saltwater And Freshwater Areas, And Environmental And Cultural Resource Restrictions. Most Of The Site Is Affected By The Tides And River Flows, So Work Must Be Planned Around These Additional Constraints. The Duckabush Estuary Is Near Brinnon, Washington, A Rural Area On The Western Shore Of Hood Canal. For The Duckabush River Estuary, The Authorized Work Time In Saltwater Areas Begins 15 July And Ends 15 January In Any Year. For The Smaller Stream Crossings, The Authorized Work Time In Freshwater Areas Begins 15 July And Ends 31 August In Any Year. Work Is Anticipated To Begin In 2026. the Proposed Project Is Anticipated To Be A Competitive, Firm-fixed-price Type Contract To Be Procured In Accordance With The Federal Acquisition Regulation (far) Part 36 (construction And Architect-engineer Contracts) And Far Part 15 (contracting By Negotiation), Using The Tradeoff Process. in Accordance With Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (dfars) Part 236, The Estimated Construction Price Range For This Project Is: Between $100,000,000 And $250,000,000. Estimated Duration Of The Project Is 1050 Calendar Days From Issuance Of The Notice To Proceed. The North American Industry Classification System Code For This Procurement Is, 237310 Highway, Street, And Bridge Construction, Which Has A Small Business Size Standard Of $45 Million. the Virtual Industry Day Event Will Take Place On 9 October 2024 At 10:00 Am Pdt Via Zoom.

San Francisco, Ca 94102-3434. description the General Services Administration (gsa) Is Seeking Sources With Current Relevant Qualifications, Experience, Personnel, And Capability To Perform As The Design-build (db) Contractor For The Construction Of The Raul Hector Castro (rhc) Land Port Of Entry (lpoe), Located At 15 Pan American Ave, Douglas, Az 85607. the Existing Rhc Lpoe In Douglas, Arizona, Is A Full-service, Multi-modal Port That Inspects Privately Owned Vehicles (pov), Pedestrians (ped), And Commercially Owned Vehicles (cov). The Southeastern Arizona Border Town Of Douglas Is Located Across The Mexican Border From Ciudad Agua Prieta, Sonora. The Lpoe At Douglas Has Been Operating Since 1914. The Current Facilities At The Rhc Lpoe No Longer Function Adequately Given The Site Constraints, Steady Increase In Traffic, And Outdated Facilities And Technologies. The Interaction Between Cov, Pov, And Pedestrian Traffic Is A Significant Concern At The Existing Lpoe As Inadequate Pathways And Separations Between Traffic Types Causes Safety And Security Issues For Customs And Border Protection (cbp) Officers And The Public. As Downtown Douglas Is Located Directly North Of The Lpoe, Congestion In Outbound Traffic Directly Impacts Flows Through The City. with Support From The Cities Of Douglas And Agua Prieta, The Final Decision Was Made To Build A New Standalone Commercial Port West Of Douglas And To Expand And Modernize The Existing Rhc Lpoe As A Non-commercial Facility. Line And Space Has Been Contracted By The U.s. general Services Administration (gsa) To Develop A Master Plan And Bridging Documents For The Expansion & Modernization Of The Rhc Non- Commercial Lpoe Based On The November 2019 Feasibility Study, And Updated Requested Scope Adjustments/changes From Cbp. the 2019 Feasibility Study Master Plan Assumed That The New Douglas Standalone Commercial Lpoe Would Be Completed Before Construction Could Begin On The Rhc Non-commercial Port. Since Funding For The Rhc Port Expansion And Modernization Project Has Become Available, This Project Explores Options For The Construction/modernization Of The Rhc Non-commercial Facilities Simultaneously With The Construction Of The New Standalone Commercial Port. The Final Environmental Impact Statement (eis) Required By The Epa’s National Environmental Protection Act (nepa) Was Issued On 04/24/24 And Due To Additional Requirement For Additional Land For Drainage And Storm Water Retention, A Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (seis) Is Currently In Progress. the Project Includes The Demolition And Modernization Of The Existing Facilities, The Expansion Of The Port To The West And North Of The Existing Site, While Maintaining Continuous Operation Of Commercial And Non- Commercial Inspection Activities During Construction. Through The Master Planning Process, Substantial Consideration Was Given To Re-purposing Of The Existing Historic Main Building And Historic Garage, However, The Decision Was Made That This Option Would Greatly Impede The Cbp Mission And Operations At The Port, Therefore The Historic Structures Will Be Demolished For The New Construction. Gsa Is Currently Engaged In The Section 106 Process With The Arizona State Historic Preservation Office (shpo) And The Consulting Parties To Complete All Final Agreements And Mitigation Measures Required. the Preliminary Concept Design Documents Are Scheduled To Be Completed By June 2025. Per Gsam 536.204 Disclosure Of The Magnitude Of Construction Projects, The Estimated Design And Construction Cost Is Estimated To Be Between $200m - $300m. gsa Plans To Issue A “best Value” Request For Proposal (rfp) Which Will Utilize Source Selection Procedures In Accordance With Far Part 15. The Selection Procedure Will Employ Tradeoffs Where Technical/management Factors Are Significantly More Important Than Price And Price Related Factors. Following The Issuance And Evaluation Of The Rfp, Gsa Intends To Award A Firm Fixed Price (ffp) Contract Consisting Of Design-build Phase Services. The Current Gsa Project Schedule Assumes A Design-build Phase Award Of January 2026. the Project Construction Duration Is Approximately 46 Months. by This Posting, Gsa Would Like To Begin Early Exchanges With Industry. All Interested Parties Should Submit A Capabilities Package To Include Business Classification (i.e. 8(a), Joint Venture, Sdvosb, Hubzone, Etc.), As Well As Examples Two (2) To Three (3) Design-build Projects Completed Within The Last Ten (10) Years That Included Similar Scope Of Work As Specified Under This Project, Including Large Commercial Projects Of 100,000 Gsf Or Larger; Where Project Scope Included: Demolition Of Existing Facilities And Temporary Space To Maintain Operations During Construction Phases, With Design And Construction Costs Between $200m - $300m. Responses Should Be Kept To A Maximum Of 10 Digital Pages Total. please Include Information On Bonding Capacity - Per Contract, And Aggregate, As Well As Proof Of Active Sba Certification (if Applicable) And Sam Registration. this Posting Serves Only As An Invitation To Express Interest For Those In The Construction Marketplace Who Are Capable Of Performing The Anticipated Work.
