Advance Notice for Design-Build Construction Services for NPS Beach Channel Bulkhead, Jacob Riis Park The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), New York District, intends to issue a competitive Two-Phase Design-Build solicitation package seeking to award a firm-fixed price Design-Build construction contract for the replacement of the existing bulkhead managed by the National Park Service (NPS) along Beach Channel Drive at Jacob Riis Park. The objective of the project is to extend the service life of the bulkhead for 100 years. Jacob Riis Park is located at the western end of the Rockaway peninsula bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the south and Jamaica Bay to the north. Existing features of the site include the NPS bulkhead which runs parallel to Beach Channel Drive, a paved multi-use trail for use by bicyclists and pedestrians, and a paved utility path which runs adjacent to the wall and covers a continuous drain line. Storm drain pipes carry water from a nearby parking area and extend through the bulkhead. The existing bulkhead begins at the rock revetment east of the Marine Parkway Bridge and continues beyond the extents maintained by the NPS. Only the portion of the existing bulkhead maintained by NPS will be replaced. The total bulkhead length maintained by NPS is approximately 5,300 linear feet. The bulkhead was initially constructed prior to 1940. The existing bulkhead is comprised of a steel sheet pile wall embedded into sediments to an unknown depth below the mudline, and anchored near its top using steel tie rods, which connect to timber anchor piles located approximately 30 feet landward of the wall. Later, a concrete "seal" of unknown thickness was applied to the face of the bulkhead. A timber "fender" system is currently attached to the face of the concrete; this was likely used as formwork for the concrete seal and left in place when work was completed. At some point in its lifetime, a concrete cap and metal guardrail were added to the top of bulkhead. In addition to replacement of the bulkhead, the entire paved multi-use trail running adjacent to the wall will need to be repaved. The paved utility path which runs adjacent to the wall and covers a continuous drain line will need to be replaced. Damaged portions of the existing reinforced concrete pipe storm drain pipes under the parking lot will be relined and the lines will be extended beyond the outer face of the new steel pile bulkhead.
