Description

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District intends to issue an Invitation For Bid (IFB) for the award of a firm-fixed contract for restoring portions of Elders Point. Elders Point (East and West) is a marsh island within Jamaica Bay. Jamaic a Bay is situated within the Boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens, New York City, is about 8 miles long, 4 miles wide, covers 26 square miles and opens into the Atlantic Ocean via Rockaway Inlet. Over the past century, the Bays fragile ecosystem has been degr aded through human encroachment and increased urbanization. Combined Sewer Outfall (CSO) discharges have also exacerbated these effects. To restore portions of the ecosystem within Jamaica Bay, this project was designed. This project aims at restoring por tions of Elders Point. These measures include beach fill and select fill and re-vegetation with grasslands (e.g., Spartina alternaflora), create and/or restore additional estuarine, wetland and upland habitats, and improve circulation and flushing. This p roject includes the restoration of 29 acres of low marsh and enhancement of 11 acres of existing low marsh at Elders Point East. This plan uses approximately 205,000 CY of sand in combination with geotextile/coconut fiber logs to contain the material and provide a buffer for wave energy. At Elders Point West there will be 12 acres of low marsh and enhancement of 8 acres of existing low marsh. Elders Point West will require 100,000 CY of sand in combination with geotextile/coconut fiber logs to contain t he material. The estimated price range for this project is between $10,000,000.00 and $15,000,000.00.
