Lake Pontchartrain and Vicinity Foreshore Repair Project

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New Orleans District, issued a Sources Sought Notice (W912P826SS0007) for the Lake Pontchartrain and Vicinity Foreshore Repair Project. This notice seeks information from qualified construction firms for preliminary planning, not proposals, for a project estimated between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000 (NAICS 237990). The work involves restoring riprap armoring with approximately 300,000 tons of Class R-2200 riprap and constructing a splashpad with 77,500 tons of R-200 stone and 112,000 SY of Geotextile Fabric. Delivery of materials will require barges and flotation dredging. The government is evaluating the potential inclusion of Project Labor Agreements (PLAs) for this large-scale construction contract, as mandated by a Presidential Executive Order for projects over $35 million. Interested firms must submit responses by March 13, 2026, including company details, bonding capacity, small business certifications, ability to meet PLA requirements (if applicable), and experience in heavy construction, especially in marsh habitats and with earthen levee projects.
