Evaluation of Alternatives
ƒTechnical Feasible Alternatives Were:
ƒRanked by Cost ƒEvaluated by Risk
Factors to Evaluate Risk
1.Price Risk.
• Materials and/or labor fluctuations
2.Constructability & Precedence.
• Difficulty to construct.
3.Material Sourcing (Sand/Rock).
• Construction materials availability.
4.Permit Risk.
• Potential to delay permit process.
Factors to Evaluate Risk
5.Schedule Risk .
• Hold-up rapid filling of cell.
6.Impact on Dredged Material Capacity.
• Net storage capacity of Craney
7.Design Life.
• Design life / maintenance requirements.
