Garibaldi Depoe Bay Pipeline Dredging 2026

The Garibaldi Depoe Bay Pipeline Dredging 2026 solicitation, identified by number W9127N26BA012, is a total small business set-aside under FAR 19.5 for hydraulic dredging operations at the Depoe Bay and Garibaldi Catch Basins in Oregon. The work involves removing approximately 76,000 cubic yards of sediment—56,000 from Depoe Bay and 20,000 from Garibaldi—using a cutterhead suction pipeline dredge, with all in-water activities restricted to the environmental window from July 1, 2026, to March 15, 2027. Performance is to occur at these two designated sites within Tillamook and Lincoln Counties, with final acceptance taking place at the work locations. The contract is a firm-fixed-price construction type, structured as a consolidated procurement under FAR 7.107-2(d), with a strong emphasis on cost efficiency, as demonstrated by an anticipated 55.21% reduction in total costs compared to separate contracts and a projected 400-man-hour savings in acquisition efforts. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, is the procuring agency, with Julia Carlton and Brandon Lasich serving as the primary and secondary points of contact, respectively. All offerors were confirmed as small businesses, with no SBA certification programs like 8(a), WOSB, or SDVOSB indicated, though one firm may qualify as a HUBZone business without formal documentation. The solicitation explicitly excludes commercial item treatment, requires adherence to environmental timing constraints, and relies on project plans and specifications for technical direction, but does not provide detailed clauses, packaging requirements, invoicing methods, accounting codes, or formal inspection criteria beyond general FAR compliance. Bids must be submitted by May 28, 2026, via mail to the Portland District address, with award expected under a lowest price technically acceptable methodology. The contract value remains unspecified in the documentation, and no options, security clearances, key personnel requirements, or special conditions beyond the set-aside and environmental window are outlined.
