Wheatley Dam Dredging Services

2026-11-03

The County Commissioners of Charles County are hereby requesting sealed bids from qualified dredging firms to provide wet dredging , hauling , and sediment disposal / beneficial reuse services within defined areas at Wheatley Dam reservoir . Bathymetric and sub - bottom profiling surveys conducted in late 2024 identified significant sediment accumulation in the northern and eastern areas of the reservoir . These two areas will be the focus of an initial dredging event . The amount of sediment dredged will be dependent upon the cost per cubic yard and all other associated project tasks . After a dredging event , Charles County may request the contractor to provide a post - dredging bathymetric survey data indicating the change in elevation . Due to the reservoir being located in a public park , dredging activities will need to coincide with park accessibility and activities . Contractors are encouraged to review documents , drawings , and visit the site during normal business hours prior to submitting a bid . The site is located at Gilbert Run Park - 13140 Charles Street Charlotte Hall , MD 20622 .
