New Orleans to Venice (NOV), NOV-10A, West Bank Mississippi River Levee (MRL), City Price to Empire

The United States Army Corps of Engineers Memphis District is conducting a market research survey for a flood risk management project. The project involves enlarging a levee along the NOV-10A levee reach in Plaquemines Parish, LA. The project will raise the levee to the authorized design grade, construct wave berms on the waterside, and stability berms on the landside. The estimated construction price range is between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000. • The project requires firms to demonstrate their capability to perform the work by addressing specific items, including providing firm information, examples of similar projects, and performance ratings. • The government is considering setting aside the contract for small businesses or other socioeconomic programs. • The project may involve the use of contractor-furnished borrow material, and a borrow analysis will be conducted prior to solicitation. • The government is requesting information on the use of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) and their potential impact on the project.
