Project Description The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District (NAB), has been tasked to solicit for and award construction services for the Whitney Point Regulating Outlet (RO) Rehabilitation in Broome County, NY. Whitney Point Lake is located along the Otselic River in Broome County, New York. The Dam is located 17 miles north of Binghamton, NY, and less than one mile upstream of the Village of Whitney Point. Whitney Point Dam consists of a 1300 feet long zoned earth filled embankment, transitioning to a 3600-foot long earthen dike section to the west. The outlet works includes an approach channel, intake structure, tunnel, stilling basin and discharge channel. The spillway includes an approach channel, ogee weir, and discharge channel. Whitney Point Lake and its regulating outlet (RO) serve to partially impound the Otselic River before it joins the Tioughnioga River. This ensures flood risk management to populations downstream while providing a lakeside recreational area near the town of Whitney Point. The Whitney Point RO is nearly 80 years old. The systems are mostly original and are well beyond the end of their design life. Currently, service and emergency gates leak when closed, preventing inspections of the outlet conduits and the control tower's concrete structural members. Furthermore, only one emergency gate (among three emergency-gate slots) is available to operations dam staff, who must currently assume the safety risk of hoisting it between slots when necessary. The primary purpose of this proposed project is to improve the safety, functionality, and reliability of the Whitney Point RO by demolishing and replacing the hoisted-gate assemblies, which include electrical, mechanical, and structural components. The rehabilitation project is needed to restore the aging system components to ensure safe and fully functional RO operations for a service life of 100 years. The proposed design includes the fabrication and installation of: One new bulkhead Three new service regulating outlet (RO) gates Three new emergency RO gates 15 individual trashracks One new overhead bulkhead crane (external hoist) and structure One new trashrack lifting beam with sling Three new service RO gate hoists Three new emergency RO gate hoists New machinery skids New standby diesel generator New Dam Secondary Distribution Panel (DSDP) New gate hoist receptacles and plugs New gate hoist assemblies Panel heaters New motor winding heaters New RO gate controls New exposed steel conduits New exterior lighting New convenience receptacles Incidental related work RO and bulkhead gate work includes survey of existing slot conditions and possible rehabilitation of structural concrete. Prior to removal of the trashracks, all debris directly in front of the trashracks must be removed. Although methods for removal of debris will be up to the contractor, previous debris removal efforts consisted of divers placing cables around logs, then removing debris with a crane. The purpose of this notice is to gain knowledge of interest, capabilities, and qualifications of various members of industry, to include the Small Business Community: Small Business (SB), Section 8(a), Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZones), Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB).
