Works Contract for the remediation of the East Tip site at Haulbowline Island, Cork Harbour, Ireland.

Tender description

The Haulbowline East-Tip is located in Cork Harbour Ireland and is approximately 9ha in size. On the North, South and East it is bordered by the Cork Harbour Waters and on the West it is bordered by lands under the control of the Irish Naval Services. The Haulbowline Island East Tip Remediation Project is to be executed under a Design-Build Contract. The project is to be executed under the following regulatory consents: - Planning Consent: The consent Ref: PL04.MT0001 can be viewed at www.pleanala.ie - Waste Licence: The current hazardous facility waste licence (Licence No. W0289-01) and associated Consents application documentation including EIS, Natura Impact Statement and Outline Design can be viewed at www.epa.ie - Foreshore Licence granted under Section 3(3) of the Foreshore Act 1933. The project will include the design and installation of a Perimeter Engineered Structure (PES) with a maximum permeability 10-5m/s around the perimeter of the East Tip. The construction is principally in the foreshore area. In addition, the project will involve the excavation and regrading of the existing East-Tip landform; the processing of excavated steel slag to achieve an engineered grade material; the recovery of scrap metal as an inherent part of the works; and the filling of excavated and processed material in order to create the formation layer onto which a future capping system will be installed. More details with respect to the project are outlined in the Briefing Document (Doc. Ref. MCC0800C_CD0101 SAQ Briefing Document) attached.
