SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Project Description:
The Valdez Container Terminal, Alaska Marine Lines, and Samson Tug & Barge are preparing for the possibility of a record year in regards to the export of fish freight. Projections from analysts employed by carrier companies servicing the Port of Valdez indicated the need to stage approximately 1,000 reefer containers. This is in addition to freight regularly moving through the yard. At the north end of the yard there are approximately two undeveloped acres, which are not suitable for container storage due to drainage, compacting and leveling issues. The Valdez Container Terminal North Laydown Yard Improvements Project serves to correct these issues and provide the space required for the current level of operations.
Scope of work includes clearing and grubbing of approximately 2 acres of land, removal of existing material, grading, installing, and compacting Type 2 gravel to the grades as specified in the contract.
Construction Schedule:
Start Date: Notice to proceed issued after Council approval
Completion Date: 30 days from the notice to proceed
