“After the initial dredging to the stated elevation of 10 feet, the contractor will be responsible for maintaining that elevation along with performing surveys three (3) times a year or when necessary.”
• Please confirm that the initial dredging to the stated elevation of 10 feet has been performed.
• It is standard in dredging that the contractor does not warranty the dredge depth after final acceptance of the dredge area. Please clarify the responsibility of the contractor to maintain the 10’ elevation. Would the
contractor need to perform maintenance dredging multiple times per year or once per year annually over the 36-months with a 24-month option to renew contract term?
