Project anatomy
Scope, counterparties, and execution logic
- Client / authority
- U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco District
- Delivery parties
- No contractor selected in the reviewed solicitation
- Contract route
- Full and open request for proposals using lowest-price technically acceptable evaluation for one firm-fixed-price contract
- Execution window
- Proposals due 14 August 2026 at 11:30 PDT; award, notice to proceed and field window remain unconfirmed
- Works package
- Maintenance dredging of Reaches 1 through 14 to -37 feet MLLW with one foot of paid overdepth, with suitable material transported to Montezuma Wetlands
- Marine interfaces
- Mechanical channel dredging across an operating commercial harbor, reach-by-reach hydrographic control, barge transport, DMMO suitability and wetland-placement acceptance
- Commercial read
- The updated solicitation estimates USD 10 million to USD 25 million and packages all 14 reaches into one firm-fixed-price contract. The earlier USACE planning deck carried a lower cost band and 350,000-cubic-yard planning estimate; those figures should not be presented as the current contract value or final quantity.
- Next milestone
- Solicitation amendments and proposal close, followed by award, contractor and plant identification, baseline reach quantities, mobilisation and accepted placement evidence

SAM.gov Notice ID W912P726RA020 controls the current procurement state. The updated full-and-open RFP was published 15 July 2026, with proposals due 14 August. It sets lowest-price technically acceptable evaluation, one firm-fixed-price contract and a USD 10 million to USD 25 million estimate. The scope covers -37 feet MLLW plus one foot paid overdepth across Reaches 1 through 14, with suitable material routed to Montezuma Wetlands. The 9 June presolicitation is retained as the earlier notice. The FY2026 navigation schedule records a 350,000-cubic-yard, USD 5 million to USD 10 million planning baseline and earlier target dates; it is not used as the current package quantity, value or deadline. The Richmond survey index is the route for current and post-dredge hydrography. The programme EA/EIR separates the 41-foot authorized depth from the 38-foot funding-limited maintenance context; neither replaces the current solicitation requirement.
Phase: tender. Evidence reviewed: 19 July 2026.
