PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Detroit District is seeking firms that have the capability to provide construction services for the following:

Construction of a sea lamprey trap structure downstream of Gate 16 of the St. Marys River Compensating Works in Chippewa County, MI. The project will involve installing a steel-mesh platform, trap vault, and lift system. An option for a second sea lamprey vault is expected to be included in the contract. The steel-mesh platform will be 25 feet long and 7 feet wide and be supported by WF columns that are 12ft in height and weigh approximately ½ ton. The columns are to contain welded and bolted plates and angles and must be socketed into the underlying bedrock. The trap vault will be composed of a concrete base, steel skin plates, and an aluminum stop log structure. The lift system will include one free-standing jib crane with a minimum rating of 1 ton.

Interested companies who have completed similar work are encouraged to respond. Provide descriptions of three projects, similar to the project size, scope, and dollar value ($750k or larger), which have been completed or substantially completed in the last ten years. Contractors should have been the prime contractor on these projects and should include examples that show their capabilities to perform the following civil construction practices:

i.          Installing drilled steel piles

ii.         Performing lifts

iii.        Completing in-stream construction activities

The contractor will have an estimated 500 calendar days to complete this requirement.

This is expected to be solicited in the third quarter of FY 25.
