The jetty maintenance will consist of removing the existing stone from approximately 330 linear feet of jetty, driving vinyl sheet piles along the centerline of the jetty to a depth of -14.0 feet mean lower low water (MLLW), installing new bedding and armor stone, and increasing the elevation of the jetty to +6.0 feet MLLW. The armor stone will be VDOT Type I and the bedding stone will be VDOT Class AI. The dredging will consist of dredging approximately 25,000 cubic yards of sandy material from the 200-foot-wide channel between Stations 32+50 and 45+90 to a required depth of -10.0 feet MLLW with 1-foot of allowable overdepth, for a total project depth of -11.0 feet MLLW in the pay prism. Dredging will be conducted by either hydraulic pipeline or mechanical dredging. Material from dredging shall be beneficially reused at beach placement sites both north and south of the channel. The first placement site, Narrows Point, is located approximately 500 feet north of the channel and will accommodate the placement of approximately 4,000 cubic yards of material. The second placement site, Queens Creek, is located approximately 2,500 feet south of the channel and will accommodate placement of approximately 21,000 cubic yards of material. The contract is anticipated to be structured with a Base Bid only. The Base Bid will include mobilization and demobilization of all necessary equipment to perform the work.
