Description | This project consists of dredging approximately 500,000 cubic yards (cy) of silt, sand, clay to improve the following components of the Federal Navigation Project for Boston Harbor: 35-foot North Broad Sound Channel, 30-foot South Broad Sound Channel, 15-foot Nubble, and 35-foot Anchorage, 35-foot Main Ship Channel, and the 35-foot Charles River Channel. The North Broad Sound Channel, South Broad Sound Channel, Nubble, and 35-foot Anchorage will be dredged with placement of all material at the Massachusetts Bay Disposal Site (MBDS) approximately 20 miles offshore of Boston Harbor. Portions of the Main Ship Channel and Charles River Channel will be dredged with placement of material in the Main Ship Channel CAD cell. All dredging must be accomplished by mechanical means and dredging of the silt material will require the use of an environmental bucket. During the course of the contract, additional work in the Boston Harbor will be ongoing. Projects include but are not limited to: Boston Harbor improvement dredging (USACE), berth maintenance in Chelsea River, Conley Terminal construction of new berth 10 and maintenance of berths 11, 12 and 14 (Massport), hydro-plow and directional drilling for new electric cable between Castle Island and Deer Island, and removal of existing electric cable within the Reserve Channel and Main Ship Channel. In addition to the communication and coordination requirements with other construction contractors and typical navigation in the harbor working in Boston Harbor, this contract will also require coordination with Boston Logan Airport (Massport and the Federal Aviation Administration). Dredging within the vicinity of Boston Logan will need to be coordinated and approved by Massport and the FAA prior to accessing many areas of the required dredging. High production during these times will be crucial for project success. | ||
