Details

Dune reprofiling works are proposed at Alva Beach (approximately 19.4°S, 147.4°E) to rehabilitate an existing dune blowout within the frontal dune system. A detailed volumetric survey has determined that approximately 132 m³ of sand is required to partially infill the blowout and restore the dune profile to a stable condition.

Background information / Compatibility requirements

The dune has deteriorated due to both weather influences and 4 wheelers driving in the dunes. This is the first step in the process of reestablishing the dune.

All works will be undertaken with a strong focus on environmental protection. Disturbance to the beach profile, dune systems and native vegetation will be minimised wherever possible. Natural materials such as driftwood will generally be retained unless removal is necessary to facilitate safe access or to address a safety risk. Measures will be implemented as needed to prevent erosion or sediment movement during the works.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this water & environment opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
