What the notice says

The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Sacramento District (SPK) anticipates a potential requirement for design-bid-build (DBB) construction services to conduct erosion control and levee strengthening protections along the South bank of the Lower American River (LAR) in Sacramento, California (CA). The anticipated project is required to continue American River Common Features (ARCF) erosion reduction efforts along the LAR. Prior efforts were awarded under USACE contract W9123824C0014, LAR Contract 3 (C3) A. The anticipated forthcoming requirement is referred to as �LAR C3B� (Contrac… (show all)

t 3B). The Government anticipates work will be required along the South bank of the American River (Site 4-1) to include constructing launchable rock toe, launchable trench, bank protection, and tie backs along approximately 1.5 miles of river, located on the left (South) bank, which roughly extends from Watt Avenue upstream to near Mayhew Drain. The Government anticipates work will include excavating, placement, and regrading of material on the riverbank slope and levee embankment, installation of soil-filled rock slope protection on the waterside levee face and riverbank, soil and rock placement to construct river toe protection and planting bench features, instream wood structure placement on the planting benches, construction of buried launchable trench features in the overbank, tie-in of erosion protection elements to existing rock revetment features, providing temporary erosion control for stabilization of disturbed soil areas, and import and placement of riprap. The Government anticipates vegetation clearing will be performed under a separate Government contract prior to erosion protection efforts. The Government anticipates the requirement will be fully designed. The Government estimates the anticipated requirement can be constructed within five-hundred-ten (510) calendar days from Contractor receipt of Notice to Proceed. The Government estimates work may be completed in late Spring through Fall 2027 and in 2028. The project is anticipated to require working in the active channel of the American River; in-water work is anticipated to be limited to performance from July through October. If market conditions indicate this estimate or timeline may be unrealistic, Respondents are encouraged to provide specific information (such as known equipment lead times or other timeline concerns) for Government consideration when responding to this Sources Sought Notice. The Government currently estimates the target price range for the potential project may be between $45,000,000.00 and $60,000,000.00. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for the potential requirement is anticipated to be 237990, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. The small business size standard for the NAICS, as established by the U.S. Small Business Administration, is $45,500,000.00 annual revenue. The Product Service Code for the potential requirement is anticipated to be Y1LC, Construction of Tunnels and Subsurface Structures.

Questions related to the draft plans and specifications will NOT be entertained; instructions for submitting questions related to any future solicited plans and specifications will be included in any forthcoming solicitation.

In accordance with Executive Order 14063, Use of Project Labor Agreements for Federal Construction Projects, and Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Overhaul (RFO) Subpart 22.5, the anticipated requirement resulting from this pre-solicitation notice is anticipated to require the successful Offeror to negotiate or become a party to a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) with one or more appropriate labor organizations.
