THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. THERE WILL NOT BE A SOLICITATION, SPECIFICATIONS, NOR DRAWINGS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. The Norfolk District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is seeking eligible firms capable of performing marine construction on both existing and new oyster reefs in the Great Wicomico River, Virginia for the Chesapeake Bay Oyster Recovery Program, Great Wicomico River Rehabilitation Project. Description of Work: The Norfolk District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in partnership with the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC) is seeking eligible firms capable of performing marine construction on both existing and new oyster reefs in the Great Wicomico River, Virginia for the Chesapeake Bay Oyster Recovery Program, Great Wicomico River Rehabilitation Project. There are multiple project sites located within the Great Wicomico River on Public (Baylor) Grounds. The original 85-acre reef network was constructed in 2006. This project aims to return to 3.7 acres of existing reef and place piles of R4 stone on top of the existing substrate at a rate of 30-60 piles per acre (depending on the location). In addition, the project will place full coverage of R4 stone across 1.7 acres of an existing reef with a targeted height of 10 inches off the river bottom. Finally, one of the existing reef footprints will be expanded by 2.4 acres also using full coverage of R4 stone. All reef substrate will need to be placed mechanically to ensure precise placement, able to be recorded by a GPS system. As-built surveys will be required to ensure the targeted reef height is met. Reef substrate will be installed per the plan drawings and specifications on the project site(s) in water depths ranging from approximately 7.0’ MLLW to 14’ MLLW. In accordance with FAR Part 36, the estimated construction price range for this project is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. NAICS Code 237990 is applicable to this project. The Government is not obligated to and will not pay for any information received from potential sources as a result of this synopsis. Definitive Responsibility Criteria This requirement will use Definitive Responsibility Criteria (DRC) which are specific and objective standards established to inform the Contracting Officer, in accordance with FAR 9.104-2. These criteria will be used to assess whether the apparent low bidder can demonstrate the expertise and specialized facilities needed for adequate contract performance. The inability of a contractor otherwise eligible for award to demonstrate minimally acceptable experience as measured by the DRC may result in the Contracting Officer determining the contractor is not responsible. The Definitive Responsibility Criteria will be developed to assess the following work items. The below DRC language is for informational purposes only. Information pertaining to the Contractor’s DRC is required at time of BID, not in response to this Sources Sought: Criteria 1: Marine Construction Experience: Bidder shall provide three examples of completed contracts in the last eight years involving mechanical placement of substrate in a marine setting where GPS locations of the substrate were recorded. The Government anticipates that the prime contractor may subcontract portions of the work. Accordingly, the Definitive Responsibility Criteria may be met through the experience of a subcontractor provided that an unequivocal commitment of the subcontractor is provided in writing conditioned only on the prime contractor being awarded the contract. We encourage your comments and feedback on this DRC. Construction Time: Pre-construction activities shall commence within 30 days of receipt of Notice to Proceed (NTP). The construction period of performance will be approximately 425 days from issuance of the NTP.

The work includes performing marine construction on both existing and new oyster reefs in the Great Wicomico River, Virginia. There are multiple project sites located within the Great Wicomico River on Public (Baylor) Grounds. The original 85-acre reef network was constructed in 2006. This project aims to rehabilitate and expand portions of the original 2006 reef system. The base bid portion of the work aims to return to 3.6 acres of existing reef and place piles of R4 stone on top of the existing substrate at a rate of 30-60 piles per acre (depending on the location). In addition, the project will place full coverage of R4 stone across 1.7 acres of an existing reef with a targeted height of 10 inches off the river bottom. The bid options for this project include new reef construction, expanding a current reef by 2.4 acres also using full coverage of R4 stone. Additional bid option work includes habitat stone piles adjacent to the base bid work. These locations are noted on the construction documents. All reef substrate will need to be placed mechanically to ensure precise placement, able to be recorded by a GPS system. As-built surveys will be required to ensure the targeted reef height is met. Reef substrate will be installed per the plan drawings and specifications on the project site(s) in water depths ranging from approximately 7.0’ MLLW to 14’ MLLW.
