Notice of Intent - Rough River Lake Service Gate Vent and Floatwell Lining

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District intends to award a sole source Firm Fixed Price Purchase Order to Pelican Underground for the repair of failing main gate vent pipes using a Pipecast Rigid Polymer Pipe Lining System at Rough River Lake. The project involves installing a polymer pipelining system to repair three vent pipes and a floatwell. The system will repair holes and enhance the structural rigidity of the cast-in-concrete steel piping. • The project is a new requirement and will result in a firm fixed price purchase order. • The NAICS code for this requirement is 238990. • The proposed contractor, Pelican Underground, is the only approved installer of the polymer pipelining system with the necessary equipment to apply the system in a uniform fashion. • The project will extend the service life of the tower at Rough River for 20+ years. • The estimated cost of the project is not explicitly stated, but it is mentioned that replacing the steel piping would be unreasonably costly.
