    Holt Lock Monolith R 14 Restoration Industry Day 4 Sep 24.pptx
    The Holt Lock Monolith R14 Repair project in Cottondale, Alabama, focuses on addressing significant structural issues identified in May 2024, including new cracks and increased water intrusion in the lock's bulkhead and control station. As a result, the lock was closed to navigation on June 21 due to failure to meet stability criteria during fill and emptying cycles. The preliminary repair plan outlines work that includes horizontal and vertical drilling, the installation of post-tensioned anchor bars, internal pressure grouting, and the placement of underwater concrete. Key activities include a site visit, temporary bulkhead installation, and a planned solicitation for contractors, with an industry day set for September 4, 2024, and contract awards anticipated by May 2025. The solicitation will feature a firm-fixed-price contract requiring relevant experience in similar projects. The document emphasizes the importance of addressing specific project risks and subcontracting goals, particularly for small businesses. Overall, the repair work is essential for restoring operational integrity to the Holt Lock and ensuring safe navigation in the Black Warrior River.
