Saginaw Bay CDF is regularly used for dredged material storage, and contractors utilize a trestle and offloading platform to access the CDF during operations. The current trestle and offload platform are unserviceable and a safety hazard; therefore, the existing structure shall be demolished. This design is for a replacement structure, which is intended for future dredge material offloading operations. The Saginaw River Confined Disposal Facility (CDF) is in Saginaw Bay, Lake Huron, adjacent to the Federal Navigation Project, about two miles from the mouth of the Saginaw River. The diked area encompasses Channel and Shelter Islands which were previously formed from maintenance dredging and deepening material which was removed from the adjoining Federal Navigation Project. Trestle G and the associated Offload platform are located on the West side of the CDF. There is a need to have proven experience with placing H-Piles from a barge, in wet conditions with accurate precision. Please use the attached Survey for your responses. Responses shall be submitted via email to Kari Tauriainen at contact@example.gov and Glenn Moon at contact@example.gov no later than 2:00 PM Eastern Time on Tuesday, July 27, 2022.
