DESCRIPTION OF WORK: This project is for the construction of a new detached rubble mound breakwater at Port Lions, 700 feet in length, located northeast of the existing breakwater. The new breakwater would protect the design fleet from northeast. Additionally, the width of the near-shore opening at the existing breakwater would be reduced to 30 feet by a combination of extending the existing breakwater 40 feet shoreward and by extending the existing stub breakwater 75 feet seaward. The existing mooring basin would remain unchanged. The existing floating breakwater would remain in place. The basin would provide protected moorage for a total of 124 commercial and subsistence vessels ranging in length from 22 to 55 feet. The existing basin depths range from -14 feet MLLW near the entrance channel to -8 feet MLLW at the near-shore extent of the basin. Because the authorized project would not have any significant adverse effects, no mitigation measures (beyond management practices and avoidance) or compensation measures are foreseen at this time.

The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 237990, Heavy and Other Civil Construction, and the related small business size standard is $37.5 Million. The estimated dollar magnitude of this project is anticipated to be $5 - $10 Million.
