Site work for a water / sewer project in Corp Christi, Texas. Completed plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

As of April 26 2022 this in under construction. This is not a solicitation for proposals and no contract shall be awarded from this synopsis. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps), Galveston District, is requesting input from government, industry, and others parties for an upcoming dredging project. The Corpus Christi Ship Channel, Texas Channel Improvement Project Contract 2 - Lower Bay Reach is a project that proposes the deepening and widen the existing channel, rehabilitation of an existing placement area (PA 6) and creation of two new partial confined beneficial use placement areas (BU I and BU CQ). Dredging from station 7+000, just bay side of the Port Aransas Ferry Landing to station 70+000, some 11.9 miles through Redfish Bay, past the La Quinta Junction and partially into Corpus Christi Bay. The contract involves the complete clean out (maintenance material) of the existing channel 47 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW)) template and the construction (new work) of the new channel 54 feet MLLW template. The maintenance material from the existing project template is estimated to generate 1,108,254 cubic yards (CYDs). The construction of the new deepening and widening of the channel (authorized depth and advanced maintenance) is estimated to generate 8,751,508 CYDs, with allowable over depth estimated at 2,002,982 CYDs. The construction of the PA 6 will involve raising berms and constructing shoreline stabilization. The beneficial use areas involve berm construction with hydraulic fill which would be allowed time to consolidate and then armored. The estimated completion time for this contract is 810 calendar days. The dredging plant type is not being specified for this Request for Information. All geotechnical information the Corps has is displayed on the project plans. Interested parties are requested to address the following items in their response: 1.
