*************************************************************************************

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Philadelphia District would like to invite marine construction industry contractors to Industry Day 2025 for the Indian River Inlet North Jetty Repair Project.

Project Authorization: Indian River Inlet is located in Sussex County, Delaware, adjacent to the Delaware Seashore State Park. The Indian River Inlet federal navigation project authorization includes stabilizing the inlet by parallel jetties 500 ft apart constructed in 1940; a navigation channel generally 200 ft wide and 15 ft deep from the inner ends of the jetties to a point in the Bay substantially 7000 ft from the ocean shoreline, a channel 9 ft deep, 100 ft wide in the Bay and 80 ft wide in the River, from that depth in the existing channel in Indian River Bay to and including a turning basin 9 ft deep, 175 ft wide and 300 ft long at Old Landing; then about 8200 ft to highway bridge at Millsboro, 60 ft wide, 4 ft deep.

The event will be held at the Delaware Seashore State Park, North Inlet Day Area, 39183 Inlet Road, Rehoboth Beach, DE, followed by a meeting in the Delaware Seashore State Park office located at 39415 Inlet Road, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971, on March 05, 2025, from 10:30 pm to 12:30 pm. Check-in for the event will begin at 10:15 am.

The purpose and focus of the event will be to seek marine construction industry input and their questions regarding best practices for the technical execution of the repair of degraded sections of the north rubble mound jetty and construction of a north jetty head at Indian River Inlet. Work is in a dynamic coastal environment with complex hydrodynamics and steep slopes into the tidal inlet. Staging areas will be provided adjacent to the inlet and within Delaware Seashore State Park.

Subsequent to the site visit at the Delaware Seashore State Park office, a meeting will follow for attendees to have the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback or concerns.

All interested attendees must pre-register by e-mail to Contract Specialist, Connor Struckmeyer at Connor.A.Struckmeyer@usace.army.mil using the attached registration form no later than March 3, 2025. Telephone requests will not be accepted. Registration must include name, company, daytime telephone number, e-mail address, and your relation to the marine construction industry as reason for attendance. You are requested to provide a count of how many people (from each registered Contractor) will be in attendance.

This is a non-fee event and seating is limited. The Government will not be conducting one-on- one discussions related to any potential contract or ongoing work under contract during this event. This announcement is not a contract solicitation, request for proposal of any sort, a promise to issue any future contract, a forum to discuss upcoming work (other than for the Indian River Inlet North Jetty Repairs Project), or a commitment to offer work of any kind on the part of the Government. The Government will not assume liability for costs incurred by an attendee or for travel expenses for marketing efforts.
