The U.S. Coast Guard is considering whether or not to set aside an acquisition for HUBZone Small Business concerns, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business concerns (SDVOSB), 8(a) certified Small Business concerns, Woman-Owned Small Business concerns or Small Business concerns, or solicit Unrestricted. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 237990 Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction, with a small business size standard of $45.0 Million. The estimated value of the procurement is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. A 20% Bid bond is required. Performance and/or Payment bonds will be required.

The U.S. Coast Guard is seeking interested vendors with successful past performance, current relevant experience, personnel/resources, equipment, and capability to perform the following work:

Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, materials, tools, vehicles, supervision, and other items and services required to perform the following New Home Port for USCG Cutter Eagle at City Pier New London, CT.

The project includes one (1) Base Bid Item and two (2) Alternative Bid Items (ABIs) as summarized below.

Base Bid Item #1

The work includes but is not limited to berthing upgrades which include the installation of three sections of timber fender piles and associated wales, all located on the south side of City Pier. Three new sea cushions will be added to the south side of the pier, ten new 30 ton bollards with concrete pedestals, and shear plates at the expansion joints will be installed as indicated on the proposed work site plan. The existing bench on the south side of the pier will be modified and relocated to enable a heat traced water and sewer line to run out to the new berth location. A new sewer pump station and water vault will be located adjacent to the octagon building. The water will connect into the nearby City line. The existing berth on the south side will also be dredged to enable USCGC EAGLE to be berthed further inshore. The dredged material will be disposed of at an upland disposal facility. Based on initial samples the amended samples should be able to be used for beneficial reuse at a nearby site in Connecticut. Additional security features will also be installed including security barriers, additional lighting, CCTV cameras, and Internet.

The two alternate bid items below are two different routes for the sewer force main to take to get into a gravity sewer system from the proposed sewer pump station. Please note that only one of the Alternative Bid Items will be awarded with the Base Bid Item.

Alternate Bid Item #1

Sewer Pipe to Manhole: The sewer force main will run towards the under construction National Coast Guard Museum (NCGM) building and connect into the proposed NCGM gravity sewer manhole, as shown on the plans.

Alternate Bid Item #2

Sewer Pipe under Rail: The force main would use an abandoned 24" sewer pipe to run under the rail and connect into the City gravity system. There are currently two other force mains in the pipe that would also need to remain as separate lines.
