This Request For Capability Information Does Not Constitute A Request For Proposals And Submission Of Any Information In Response To This Market Survey Is Purely Voluntary. No Reimbursement Will Be Made For Any Costs Associated With Providing Information In Response To This Special Notice Or Any Follow-up Information Requested. the Estimated Magnitude Of Construction Is Between $25,000,000 And $100,000,000. the Subject Project Has A Total Estimated Period Of Performance Of 895 Calendar Days From The Date Of Notice To Proceed And Commencement Of Work Would Begin Within 30 Calendar Days Of Receipt Of The Notice To Proceed (ntp). the Applicable North American Industry Classification System (naics) Code Assigned To This Procurement Is 237990, Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction. The Small Business Size Standard For This Project Is $45.0 Million. project Overview: the Bulkhead Wall System Was Constructed In The 1950’s To Create Four Basins Within Flamingo Marina. The Four Basins Are Known As Visitor Center Bay, Florida Bay, Whitewater Bay, And Maintenance Marina Bay. The Existing Bulkheads Were Constructed In The 1950’s Using Pre-cast Concrete Panels Located Between Soldier Piles With Steel Tie Rods Anchoring The Wall To Creosote-treated Piles Which Act As Deadmen. The Piles And Panels Were Embedded Approximately Two Feet Below The Mudline. Cast In Place Concrete Caps Were Placed Above The Panels And Piles. Sections Of All The Existing Bulkhead Caps, Panels And Piling Show Evidence Of Corrosion Of The Reinforcing Steel. Cracks And Spalls Are Visible On The Top Of The Concrete Cap And In Some Cases Create Potential Tripping Hazards For Visitors And Staff. Test Pits Performed, To The Depth Of The Tie Rods, At Five Locations During The Design Phase Of This Project Did Not Identify Any Significant Corrosion Of The Tie Rods Anchoring The Wall Nor Any Degradation Of The Tops Of Treated Timber Piling. However, Based On Information Provided By The Park Personnel, Usace Understands A Similar Bulkhead System, Located At The Everglades City – Everglades National Park Facility, Constructed During The Same Era, Suffered A Tie-rod Failure In July 2005. This Failure Required The Emergency Installation Of New Tie Rods, Anchors, And Concrete Cap. Based On This Reported Failure, It Is Logical To Infer That Some Of The Existing Steel Tie Rods At The Flamingo Marina May Be Similarly Corroded, Since They Are Also Installed Within The Tidal Zone Under Similar Conditions. Distortions In The Pavement Adjacent To The Bulkheads Also Indicates Possible Bulkhead Distress. to Replace These Bulkheads, Cantilevered Sheet Pile Will Be Placed Approximately 22 Inches In Front Of The Existing Bulkhead Using The Press-in Method Combined With Pre-auguring Of Sheet Pile Installation. The Press-in Method Was Chosen As The Installation Method For The Following Reasons: address The Nps Concerns With Vibration, Noise, And Contractor Interactions With The Various Protected Species Found In The Basins. to Minimize Risk Of Damage Or Failure Of The Existing Bulkhead System Due To Vibration. to The Address The Limestone Layers The Sheet Piles Will Be Founded In Without Exposing The Existing Concrete Panels Nor Soldier Piles To Loose Material. to Minimize The Need To Place Construction Loads Near The Existing Bulkhead. the Need For Tight Vertical And Horizontal Construction Tolerances For The Sheet Piles. the Government Is Requesting Answers To The Following Technical Questions: 1. Can You Describe Your Current Sheet Pile Installation Equipment Types And If The Equipment Can Meet The Press-in Method Of Installation Requirements? 2. The Sheet Pile Will Require Significant Embedment Into A Hard Limestone Layer. We Are Requiring Pre-auguring To Break Up The Limestone And Allow For Sheet Pile Placement; However, The Existing Bulkhead Panels And Soldier Piles Are Near The Auguring And Embedded Into The Same Limerock Layer. To Minimize The Risk Of Failure Of The Existing Bulkhead During The Auguring Process, Positioning Of The Auguring System And Minimizing The Time Between The Auguring Of The Rock And Placement Of The Sheet Pile Will Be Important. Can You Explain How And What Type Of Equipment You Would Use To Accomplish The Pre-auguring? 3. The Area Between The New Sheet Pile And The Existing Bulkhead Will Be Filled With Clsm, In Sections, And Lifts, The Ends Of Each Segment Will Need Seals Placed To Prevent The Clsm From Flowing Into The Basin. Can You Explain Your Approach To Sealing The Segments To Allow For Clsm To Be Placed? 4. As The Clsm Is Placed, Turbid Water Will Be Displaced, If Turbidity Barriers Do Not Provide Sufficient Protection, How Would You Propose Meeting The Turbidity Requirements? 5. Do You Believe Baker Tanks And Or Filtering Equipment Will Be Required To Treat The Displaced Water If The Turbidity Requirements Cannot Be Maintained? 6. For Architectural And Corrosion Prevention Reasons A Precast Façade Is To Be Mounted In Front Of The Sheet Pile. This Precast Concrete Façade Will Extend From The Top Of The Wall To Below The Mean Low Water Elevation. The Gap Remaining Between The Façade Panel And The Sheet Pile Is To Be Filled With Clsm, How Would You Seal This Gap At The Bottom And Sides To Prevent Clsm From Flowing Into The Basin? 7. As Stated Above, The Vertical And Horizontal Tolerances Associated With The Sheet Pile Placement Are Tight To Allow For Façade Panel Placement And Maintain The Architectural Look Of The Bulkhead. Can You Explain How You Propose To Maintain These Tolerances Throughout Sheet Pile Placement? 8. Several Outfall Pipes Will Penetrate The Existing Wall. These Outfall Pipe Will Need To Be Extended Through Both The New Sheet Pile And The Concrete Façade Panels; Can You Describe How You Would Accomplish This? 9. Various Protected And Potentially Dangerous Species And Fauna Populate The Project Site. Can You Describe Any Experience You Have Working In Highly Environmentally Sensitive Areas And How You Will Handle The Environmental Restrictions That Are Required By This Project? a Project Labor Agreement (pla) Is Defined As A Pre-hire Collective Bargaining Agreement With One Or More Labor Organizations That Establishes The Terms And Conditions Of Employment For A Specific Construction Project And Is An Agreement As Described In 29 U.s.c. 158 (f).
