RE: Request for Proposal (RFP)
2009 China Cove Sand Replenishment Project
Project Summary
The City of Newport Beach is requesting competitive bids for a dredging project at China
Cove beach. Sand will be moved from the low tide line at the larger beach at Dahlia
Avenue to the smaller beach at Fernleaf Avenue and Cove Street to create a higher
level of sand.
Proiect Details
The scope of the project is to push sand from the low tide line up to the
bulkhead in order to increase the height of the usable beach. (Aerial photos of
the City are available on the City's website: http: / /www.newportbeachoa.gov/
Click on "MAPS" then "Interactive Map" then "I Agree. ")
2. Site location is China Cove beach between Dahlia Avenue and Cove Street.
3. Approximately 996cy of sand will be removed from the larger beach area and
replenished at the eastern beach along Femleaf Avenue and Cove Street (see
attached map).
4. The beach will be accessible at Cove Street. The disposal site will be
accessible by traversing across the China Cove beach at low tide to avoid a
storm drain. Utmost care must be taken so the storm drain is not damaged.
5. An excavator and wheel loaders are the most efficient tractors to use.
6. The project must be coordinated to take advantage of the low tides that occur
during the daylight hours. Work hours are from 7:00 AM — 6:00 PM Monday
thru Friday and 8:00 AM — 5:00 PM Saturday. No work on Sundays. There may
be an allowance with the hours of operation depending on the tide schedule.
Tide books are enclosed with this packet.
