Misty Barge Drydock Maintenance, Repairs, and Recommissioning

The USDA Forest Service is seeking drydock maintenance and repair for the Misty, a steel-hull barge operating near Ketchikan, Alaska. - Government buyer: U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Forest Service; CSA Northwest 4, Wrangell District, Tongass National Forest. The solicitation identifies Raymond Padgett as the buyer. - Scope: Non-personal, firm-fixed-price services to haul out, drydock, maintain, repair, paint, and recommission the Misty, an approximately 90-Lton barge. The Forest Service is responsible for towing the barge to the contractor’s facility. - Main service schedule: Five line items, each listed at 1 lot: haul out and lay days; exterior hull painting and repairs; exterior deck and appurtenances; interior hull painting; and bilge tank cleaning. - Additional work: Replace eight 24-pound zinc anodes; refurbish four 30-ton Wintech manual winches and two Wintech HM8 boom winches; inspect anchors and chain; provide a 750-pound replacement anchor (part number ZG20-400); and fabricate and install a double anchor stand. The work also includes cleaning three water tanks, two fuel tanks, and wastewater-treatment tanks, plus final inspection and recommissioning. - OEMs and named products: PPG coating products include Dimetcote, Amercoat 240LT, Amercoat ABC 3, Amershield Aliphatic polyurethane, and Black 214 antifoulant. Devoe coatings are also specified for the interior hull. Wintech winches are identified for refurbishment. Coatings must be compatible with existing finishes, with preparation, coating layers, colors, and film thicknesses governed by the specifications. - Notable requirements: Provide a suitable drydock, marine railway, or travel lift for the barge; conduct inspections and report observed conditions; protect equipment and work from weather; and restore contractor-caused damage. The interior bilge work includes an estimated 850 square feet of preparation and coating. Technical proposals call for a task schedule and primary and alternate haul-out dates; past performance and price are evaluated. The opportunity is a total small-business set-aside. - Attachment discrepancy: One bid-sheet attachment contains extensive custodial-cleaning line items for administrative buildings, child development facilities, and fitness centers that do not match the Misty drydock scope. Those items are listed below because they appear in the attachment summary; the solicitation should be checked to resolve the discrepancy. - Vendors: No reseller or service contractor is named in the provided materials.
