The Department of Defense, through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is soliciting quotes for a geotechnical investigation project focused on the Clemson Dam in Oconee County, South Carolina. The project requires contractors to perform overwater drilling to assess the structural integrity of the dam, which is crucial for preventing flooding impacts on Clemson University, a significant land-grant research institution. Contractors must demonstrate their technical capabilities, state drilling experience, and compliance with safety regulations while obtaining soil samples and core borings using specialized drilling equipment. Quotes are due by November 2, 2024, at 9:00 AM ET, and interested parties should contact Sarai Hayward at sarai.hayward@usace.army.mil or Nathan Aylesworth at nathan.a.aylesworth@usace.army.mil for further information.
