Final requirements for Sargent Breakwater project -

Great details on the project on the Request for Proposal page for the Sargent Breakwater Project  - some interesting things on the construction of the breakwater and jetty at Mitchell's cut. Bids were due on October 25th so they are all in and being analyzed now. 

• The breakwaters are 400 feet long and spaced 660 feet apart in 4 feet depth of water. The angled terminal groin at the inlet extends to a water depth of 8 feet. 
• The goal of the project is to reduce beach erosion along Sargent Beach and the Matagorda Peninsula by stabilizing Sargent Beach and protecting the adjacent GIWW from erosional breaching. 
• The approximate cost range for construction of the Project is $28,000,000 to $35,000,000. 
• They will be staging at Mitchell's cut and using the road out to the cut to get equipment and supplies there
• The jetty will be just shy of 1/2 mile long going from the cut into the Gulf
• The staging areas will be secured - since one of the staging areas is the end of Mitchell cut - don't know what that means or what they will have to do to get access for heavy equipment down at Mitchell's cut.  
• Here is the schedule - 
• Evaluation Period October 31, 2023 to November 10, 2023
