The document outlines the "Plans for Dredging, Survey of December 2022 & March 2023" for Milford Haven in Mathews County, Virginia, conducted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Norfolk District. The project encompasses dredging the Milford Haven Channel to a depth of 10 feet and a width of 200 feet, with an additional 1-foot allowable overdepth, totaling an estimated 23,700 cubic yards of dredged material. The plans also detail proposed jetty construction and beach placement sites at Narrows Point Beach and Queens Creek Beach, including demolition of existing structures and placement of rip rap. The document provides general notes on project dimensions, tidal datums, coordinate systems, and environmental considerations such as oyster grounds and submerged aquatic vegetation.
The Milford Haven Jetty and Dredging project is a federal government undertaking focused on hydraulic maintenance or mechanical dredging of the Milford Haven Channel in Matthew's County, Virginia, and the repair of the adjacent jetty structure. The project involves various general requirements, including administrative procedures, payment protocols, and a detailed project schedule. Key aspects include specific payment items for mobilization, demobilization, site work, sheet pile construction, dredging, and stone placement. The project emphasizes strict adherence to safety, environmental protection, quality control, and detailed submittal procedures. Contractor requirements include coordination with channel traffic, adherence to work hours, utility location, and provisions for weather-related time extensions and historical/archaeological finds. Profit determination uses a weighted guidelines method. The project schedule, a critical component, must be cost-loaded and follow the Critical Path Method, serving as the basis for progress payments.
