Z -- Cape Creek Fish Passage

The intent of this contract is to provide equipment, materials, services and personnel to replace the existing 30-inch diameter corrugated metal pipe culvert with a steel pipe-arch, 9'9 span, 6'7 rise, 46 length. Excavation of the upper one foot (estimate may vary) of bedrock will be excavated to allow pipe placement at the required elevations. Lean concrete is required as bedding for the new pipe-arch. Riprap is to be placed near the corners of the pipe. Simulated streambed rock will be placed inside the pipe and the adjacent stream channel, then shaped to simulate a natural channel. Granular backfill needed for the new arch pipe will be taken from the decommissioned roadway (old Road 1059) adjacent to the project site. The asphalt concrete over the existing pipe will be broken to 8 maximum size, and be removed from Government property. The roadway will be reestablished according to the existing alignment with the grade raised to provide minimum 18 subgrade cover over the new pipe. Stringent dewatering, erosion and sediment control measures will be required. This project is located on the Waldport Ranger District, Siuslaw National Forest, Lincoln County, Oregon. The successful Contractor shall furnish all labor, equipment, supervision, transportation, supplies (except those designated as Government-furnished), and incidentals to accomplish all work necessary. The Government estimate is between $25,000 and $100,000. Offers are due by close of business on June 27, 2005. The successful offeror shall be required to submit a Payment Bond (100%) prior to start of work. Contract time is 30 calendar days. Estimated start work date is July 7, 2005. This solicitation is set-aside for small business concerns. The solicitation packet will be posted in FedBizOpps on or about June 6, 2005.
