This file contains technical documentation related to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources' Great Lakes Shoreline Stabilization project in Dickinson County, Iowa. The DNR is soliciting engineering consulting services to design shoreline stabilization practices across four lakes where 66 erosion damage locations have been identified, spanning over 2,600 feet of shoreline. The project is structured in two phases, with the first phase involving the development of a comprehensive design report that will define erosion damage limits and provide repair recommendations, potentially leading to construction bid package development in phase two. The RFP opened on September 5, 2024, with responses due by September 23, 2024. Respondents must submit both technical and cost proposals and will be evaluated on criteria including work plan quality, organizational capacity, technical expertise, and past performance. The DNR has developed a conceptual construction estimate of $4.2 million for the overall stabilization work.

The RFP indicates a preference for Iowa-based firms and products but does not establish any set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent organization types. No specific award value or budget range for the consulting services phase is provided in the documentation, though a detailed cost proposal template is outlined in the RFP. The file does not indicate incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure requirements. Funding sources and specific amounts for the consulting services contract are not detailed in the available materials.
