BERTHS BED LEVELING

The Port of Stockton is soliciting bids for berth maintenance through mechanical bed leveling operations at its east and west complex docks, aiming to restore and maintain specified bottom elevations by redistributing sediment within the existing berthing areas. The work will involve using drag bars or similar equipment to flatten high spots and achieve designated grades without removing sediment from the site, ensuring all material remains within the authorized footprint. No dredging, off-site disposal, or upland placement of sediment is permitted unless explicitly directed by the Port, and all activities must comply with approved drawings and operational constraints. The Port holds full authority to approve or reject equipment based on sufficiency of size and capability, and only proposals meeting these standards will be considered. All work must be conducted within the designated work windows using equipment that meets Port requirements, with no tolerance for unauthorized sediment transport or modification beyond the defined areas. The solicitation, identified as ITB-2026-0002, was posted on July 23, 2026, with responses due by August 20, 2026. Bidders must coordinate with Trevor Wilson, the primary point of contact, and adhere strictly to the Port’s discretion regarding equipment approval and work execution. The contract is specific to in-place sediment redistribution only, with no additional services or modifications anticipated unless formally authorized.
