Contract lift service will involve removal of components from barge and placement of the components over a 6ft perimeter fence onto concrete cribbing pads, inside a fenced compound. Distances will vary slightly as barge is moved along bank to facilitate unloading and placement of components on designated cribbing pads in compound. Number of components, weights, dimensions and distances to cribbing pads from fence are listed in the specification.

Estimated time frame for unloading and placing components is 10 to 14 days. Once operation begins, work hours will be 10 to 12 hours per day, 7 days per week until completion. Dates for performing service are dependent upon completion of concrete cribbing and previous scheduled repair operations requiring the government crew and towboat. Contract lift Service will be scheduled and performed between 1 Aug 06 and 30 Sept 06 time frame.
