About this forecast
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), within the Department of the Interior, is forecasting a new requirement for installation of a headgate at Crow's Nest Reservoir in Oregon, with an estimated solicitation release date of January 1, 2027. The headgate would give BLM the control needed to comply with a "Headgate Notice" issued by the Oregon Water Resources Department in response to a valid call for water by a senior water-right holder, enabling BLM to regulate or shut off releases, control diversions accurately, and document compliance. The installation would also improve operational safety, reduce reliance on temporary or improvised control measures, and minimize site disturbance.
The estimated award value range is $500,000 to $999,000. Place of performance is Oregon, USA. Ryan Bates, Facility Operations Supervisor at the BLM Vale District Office, is the point of contact, reachable at rbates@blm.gov or +1 (541) 473-6257.
Forecast text
The BLM is requesting approval for installation of a headgate at Crow’s Nest Reservoir to comply with a “Headgate Notice” served by the Oregon Water Resources Department in response to a valid call for water by a senior water-right holder. The existing outlet configuration does not provide the Bureau of Land Management with sufficient control to promptly regulate or shut off releases as required during water-right administration. A properly designed headgate will allow BLM to control diversions accurately, document compliance, and prevent unauthorized or excess use of water that may otherwise impair senior rights. The installation will also improve operational safety, reduce the need for temporary or improvised control measures, and support consistent reservoir management while minimizing disturbance to the site. Completing this work will enable timely compliance with the Department’s notice, protect the priority system established under Oregon water law, and reduce the risk of enforcement action, continued water conflict, or resource damage. The headgate is therefore a necessary administrative and operational improvement to ensure lawful, measurable, and responsible management of water at Crow’s Nest Reservoir.
