Pier D Street Geotechnical Exploratory Work - Harbor Development Permit No. 23-048(1)

The Harbor Development Permit No. 23-048(3), as amended for the third time, authorizes comprehensive infrastructure improvements along Pier D Street in Long Beach, California, including the realignment and widening of the roadway with redesigned horizontal and vertical curves, upgraded striping, energy-efficient lighting, new signage, two cul-de-sacs, replacement paving, and a new signalized intersection at Pico Avenue. Infrastructure upgrades encompass the replacement of the stormwater pump station and outfall system, installation of a new storm drain network equipped with bio-filtration, mechanical filtration, and hydrodynamic separators, rehabilitation of the sanitary sewer lift station, and enhancements to water, fire hydrant, power pole, and fiber optic systems. Landscaping efforts include slope planting, biofiltration swales and basins, accent planting, and a modern irrigation system with智能 controllers, all designed to meet State Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance standards. Environmental characterization is a critical component, requiring approximately 53 soil borings to assess soil and groundwater conditions across the project area. The project is governed by California Environmental Quality Act categorical exemptions under Sections 15301–15304, which support its eligibility for streamlined environmental review, though no federal acquisition regulation clauses or procurement-specific terms are referenced in the available documentation. The Port of Long Beach acts as the lead agency and contracting authority, with Mike Sarullo serving as Contract Project Manager and Amy Wong as Environmental Specialist Assistant. While the project is authorized under a preliminary design spending limit of $1,500,000, no formal contract value, pricing structure, or contract type (e.g., FFP, cost-plus) is explicitly defined in the materials. The place of performance is clearly identified as Pier D Street within the Port of Long Beach Harbor Planning District 2, with inspection and acceptance to occur on-site under the oversight of the Port. No submission deadlines, proposal formatting rules, or unique contractual requirements such as bonding, insurance, key personnel mandates, or socioeconomic certifications were specified, indicating an administrative authorization focused on construction and environmental compliance rather than a traditional federal procurement.
