    Industry Day Information.pdf
    The Industry Day for the Rough River Dam Safety Modification Phase 2 will occur virtually on October 23, 2024, and onsite on October 24, 2024, with contractors required to register by October 16. Following these sessions, the government will conduct one-on-one discussions with contractors to refine the project’s Request for Proposal (RFP). The project arises from a 2005 evaluation classifying the dam as a high risk, necessitating major rehabilitation to prevent catastrophic failure and safeguard public safety. The Phase 2 contract involves constructing a seepage barrier and outlet works to mitigate internal erosion risks. Previous phases included realigning a highway and exploratory drilling, with the latest enhancements modifying 150 additional drilling sites to strengthen foundational integrity. Future work is expected to take place under a firm-fixed-price contract with ongoing management and oversight by USACE. Eventually, the project's culmination will result in a reevaluation of risk and a potential update of the dam's safety classification. Interested contractors must maintain a registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for contract awards. The solicitation for this project will be available on SAM.gov.
