    The Naval Facilities Engineering Command Washington has issued Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) No. N40080-24-2-0003 regarding a cooperative agreement for shoreline stabilization at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland. The purpose of Amendment 0001, dated July 8, 2024, is twofold: to address clarifications for Request for Information (RFI) #1 through #4 and to provide an attached RFI log from the same date. The overall terms and conditions of the BAA remain unchanged. This initiative supports the federal government's efforts to ensure enhanced environmental stability and infrastructure integrity at critical naval facilities, illustrating their commitment to addressing environmental challenges in military readiness and operational resilience.
    This document presents detailed maps of shoreline bank pin locations at Naval Air Station Patuxent River in St. Mary's County, Maryland, prepared for the U.S. Navy by Environmental Systems Analysis, Inc. The maps (three total) illustrate the positioning of bank pin locations along several reaches, with a clear legend indicating features such as roadways and reach breaks. Each map includes critical information such as contract number N40080-12-D-0350, the date of map creation (May 1, 2014), and contact details for the preparers. The scale of the maps is 1 inch to 200 feet, allowing precise spatial analysis. This document likely serves a regulatory or compliance mission, reflecting the Navy's commitment to environmental management and monitoring at the installation. The emphasis on detailed geographic information aligns with federal requirements for environmental oversight in government projects.
    The document pertains to a government pre-award inquiry for shoreline stabilization at Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River, Maryland. Key inquiries include the lack of bathymetry data for Pearson and Harpers Creek, and the Navy's position on beneficial reuse of dredged material, emphasizing that any offsite dredge material must originate from similar nearby watersheds and be free from contamination. Additionally, it references a 2014 erosion report detailing erosion in the study area, supplemented by sporadic data from rebar bank pins monitoring erosion rates. Access limitations on Harper’s/Pearson Creek are highlighted, primarily due to existing physical conditions rather than regulatory restrictions. Vessels require passes, and navigation can be challenging in shallow areas. This inquiry responds to factors vital for the planning and execution of the stabilization project, ensuring environmental compliance and evaluation of relevant historical data as it pertains to coastal management efforts within the military infrastructure.
