Description of Work: The Norfolk District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is seeking eligible firms capable of performing new work dredging by mechanical or bucket plant at the southeastern cell of the Craney Island Dredge Material Management Area (CIDMMA). The southeastern cell is being deepened to a required depth of -42 feet mean lower low water (MLLW). No widening or other channel framework modifications are proposed at this time. Two feet of allowable overdepth dredging will be allowed as part of the contract dredging pay prism. A not to exceed depth of -44 feet MLLW will be observed for this project. Material removed from the construction footprint will be received by ocean-going scows and placed at the Norfolk Ocean Disposal site (NODS). Dredging is estimated to generate approximately 3-million cubic yards of pay volume. The Contractor shall be responsible for the following: dredging within the designated areas to the proposed and allowable pay depths, placing the removed material in ocean-going barges, transporting the ocean-going barges with the collected material to NODS, depositing the collected material at NODS, and communicating with the Port of Virginia maritime users to minimize impacts to vessel traffic, adjacent utilities, and dredging operations.
