Specifications include, but are not limited to: The MSB and EDA funded Port Pile Sleeve Project aims to enhance the durability and longevity of the port infrastructure through a comprehensive approach. The project involves repairing identified pile splice welds to restore their structural integrity. Additionally, pile sleeves will be installed on 41-48 piles for splice welds, cathodic, and abrasive protection. The priority will be given to the repair and installation of pile sleeves on 41 piles, including all deep draft dock piles and a Priority 1 pile. The remaining 16 piles will be awarded individually based on available funding. To prevent water intrusion, the pile sleeves will be grouted with an epoxy mix, filling the annulus space between the sleeve and the piles. Additionally, sacrificial anodes will be installed on deep draft dock piles and barge dock sheet piles, effectively minimizing the corrosion rate and extending the overall lifespan of the Port's investment. The EDA funding requires project site signage to inform the public of the federally supported project for the Port Facility at Point Mackenzie.
