- Description
- Industry Day for the NASA Wallops Island Flight Facility Shoreline Protection Project , Wallops Island Virginia. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Norfolk District is scheduled to host an �Industry Day� event on Tuesday December 3rd , from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EDT) for construction and dredging contractors interested in the NASA Wallops Island Flight Facility Shoreline Protection Project. This event will be held at the USACE Norfolk District, 803 Front Street, Norfolk VA, 23510. The event will provide an opportunity for Large and Small Business contractors to learn about the upcoming construction and dredging and beach re-nourishment project. The one-day event will include presentations encompassing overview briefs of the NASA Wallops Island Flight Facility Shoreline Project followed by a live Q&A session. This is an in-person event. The objective of the Industry Day effort is information gathering. The government will present an overview of the project, the current design, and project site restrictions and limitations. The purpose of this presentation is to illicit feedback from construction and dredging subject matter experts and firms. Feedback sought includes information regarding means and methods for construction, dredging, and beach nourishment, discussion of best-practices, discussion of anticipated contractor scheduling limitations, and typical capacity for dredging and beach nourishment. Additional topics will include industry�s anticipated impact of time-of-year, weather, recommended period of performance, the expected duration of the actual work, as well as anticipated logistical challenges for scheduling, locality, and dredge mobilization. The industry day also seeks to understand the impact of and coordination around site limitations to include NASA operational tempo (launch schedule), wildlife/environmental restrictions, range access and permitting. Schedule: Subject Time Introduction 9:30 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. NASA Wallops Overview 9:45 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. Flight Facility Shoreline Protection Project Overview 10:15 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. Q&A and Open Forum 11:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. All parties interested to participate shall be registered.

COMPANIES WILL BE LIMITED TO 3 ATTENDEES FOR THIS EVENT*** Project Overview: The NASA Wallops Island Flight Facility is seeking industry engagement and feedback on a projected project for placement of beach fill and construction of breakwaters along a +/- 15,000-foot section of shoreline to help protect NASA�s critical infrastructure. The Unnamed Shoal �A�, located approximately 11 miles offshore, has been identified as the sand source for the beach fill. The proposed beach template consists of a 25-foot-wide dune and is to be constructed to a height of 14 feet elevation along with a 130-foot-wide berm. The volume of material needed for this project is approximately 1 million cubic yards. Detached breakwaters are proposed to be constructed approximately 200 feet offshore from mean high-water elevation. Dimensions of the breakwaters are approximately 12 feet wide and 130 feet long and to be constructed to a crest height of 6 ft elevation. Proposed material for the breakwaters consists of VDOT Class II stone for the core and VDOT Type I for the armor stones. Questions regarding the NASA Wallops Island Flight Facility Shoreline Protection Project may be submitted in advance of Industry Day to tiffany.n.kirtsey@usace.army.mil with SUBJECT LINE: NASA Wallops Shoreline Stabilization Questions, BEFORE November 22nd, 2024 at 2:00PM EST.
