The contractor must dredge approximately 61,640 cubic yards of fine‑sand and silty material to a depth of 14 ft MLLW plus 1 ft allowable overdepth, and place the sediment for beneficial use on designated sites at Boot Island. Optional containment measures (compact track loader, turbidity curtains, coir logs, weirs, hay bales) may be required, and all work must be completed between 15 September and 31 December due to environmental restrictions, using the Resident Management System (RMS). Offerors must demonstrate recent (within 10 years) experience on at least two dredging projects that employed beneficial‑use placement for marsh restoration or habitat creation on environmentally sensitive coastal wetlands. The project value is estimated between $1 M and $5 M, with a 270‑day performance period from the Notice to Proceed. Bids must be submitted through the PIEE Solicitation Module, and all bidders must be registered in SAM and PIEE at the time of submission. Prospective contractors are responsible for monitoring SAM.gov for any amendments, updates, or Q&A.
