Recent inspections conducted in late 2024 and a subsequent Load Rating Analysis in January 2025 have identified structural deficiencies governed by the deterioration of bearing piles. Specifically, over sixty (60) timber piles are currently "non-bearing" or "partially bearing," exhibiting gaps between the top of the pile and the timber pile cap. These gaps range from hairline to approximately 3 inches. The purpose of the requirement is to obtain services of a Design-Build Contractor to restore the vertical load path of the pier by shimming all piles currently not in contact with the substructure. The

objective is to re-establish positive bearing connections to ensure the structure can safely support the "Owner-Specified Vehicle" (OSV) load of 12,000 pounds as defined in the 2025 Load Rating Report.
