The Department of Defense, specifically the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Omaha District, is planning to issue a Request for Quote for the establishment of the Upper Missouri River Basin Plains Snowpack and Soil Moisture Monitoring Network. This initiative aims to create a network of monitoring stations across Wyoming, Montana, and South Dakota to assess snowpack and soil moisture, with an estimated site density of one station every 500 square miles, requiring upgrades to existing sites and installation of new equipment at approximately 162 additional locations. The selected contractors, the University of Wyoming, University of Montana, and South Dakota State University, possess the necessary expertise and infrastructure to manage this project effectively, ensuring data integrity and operational efficiency. Interested parties may submit capability statements or quotes for consideration, with the anticipated award date set for December 15, 2025.
