STATEN ISLAND, NY — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), New York District, announces the awarding of a significant contract for the construction of large interior drainage ponds and associated stormwater infrastructure in the South Shore of Staten Island Area-E at South Beach. The contract has been awarded to Triumph Construction Corp. for a total of $132.67 million. This contract includes the construction of detention basins connected with an open channel culvert, various stormwater drainage structures such as box culverts, junction chambers, sluice gates, weir chambers, flap gates, and inlets for future stormwater inlets, as well as the relocation of existing sanitary sewers. This is the first of several construction contracts that will occur over the next few years in order to construct the overall South Shore of Staten Island project, including additional interior drainage areas, seawall, etc. Designs for each of the remaining construction contracts is currently underway. Staten Island has a long history of suffering severe storm damage, with major events such as the Nor'easter of December 1992, the March storm of 1993, and Super Storm Sandy in October 2012 causing significant damage. This area remains increasingly vulnerable to severe damage even from moderate storms.
