This project consists of a base bid with an option. The base bid includes the ramp and floating dock with minimal dredging that only extends to the footprint of the ramp but not the floating dock. The project consists of a parking lot with a Low Impact Design (LID) detention pond and a

gravel road on the surface. Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) monitoring must be constant during construction. Environmental constraints include water construction occurring only from Aug-Nov, constructing near sensitive cultural resources items, and working in a construction zone that was previously a restoration site.For the option, the parking lot extends to the wash-down area for the vessels that discharges to an oil-water separator followed by a lift station and a new sewer force main that must be connected to the existing system. A water line and connecting an existing fire hydrant are also part of the option.It is estimated that construction of the potential requirement can be completed within 365 calendar days.The potential requirement may result in a solicitation issued approximately May 2022.If solicited, the Government intends to award the contemplated requirement as a firm-fixed-price contract by approximately September 2022. It is estimated that the potential requirement can be completed within 365 calendar days.In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 36.204(f), the Government currently estimates the magnitude of construction for this project to be between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000.The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for the potential requirement is anticipated to be 237990, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction.
