Quick Summary

The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), under the Department of Homeland Security, is soliciting proposals for the USCG Station Sandy Hook Pier Lighting project. This opportunity, designated as a Local Area Set-Aside (FAR 26.2), involves replacing existing electrical conductors for pier lighting and cutter/boat shore tie connections at Station Sandy Hook in Highlands, NJ. Proposals are due by May 15, 2026, at 4:00 PM EDT.

Scope of Work

This project requires the installation of all new electrical conductors to provide power to cutter and boat shore tie connections, as well as pier lighting. The existing conductors have experienced repeated failures due to excessive splicing. Key requirements include:

  • Conductor Installation: Running new electrical conductors from the nearest electrical panel in the Boat Maintenance Facility to downstream equipment.
  • Environmental Suitability: Conductors must be suitable for continuous operation in wet locations, including tidal/splash zones, flooded pull boxes, and conduits below the mean water line.
  • Technical Compliance: Adherence to codes and standards such as NFPA 70 (NEC), NFPA 70E, OSHA, UL standards, IEEE 1580, IEEE 45, UFC 4-152-01, and the Coast Guard Electrical Shore Ties Configuration Standard (CSTO). This includes specific voltage drop limits (≤3% for feeders, ≤5% total) and proper grounding/bonding.
  • Coordination: Contractors must verify existing loads and feeder lengths in the field and coordinate power outages with Station Sandy Hook personnel, potentially providing temporary power.
