“What we're asking for is a not to exceed amount of 25,000. So when they're down there, if they can repair it while they're there, we can actually we can have it repaired without coming back to council.”
What happened
The City of Norway, IA is preparing for a procurement opportunity related to the repair of the hydro trash rack at the dam. This is a pre-RFP signal, indicating that discussions are underway before a formal request for proposal (RFP) is issued.
During a recent council meeting, the need for repairs was emphasized due to the critical role the trash rack plays in preventing debris from entering essential components of the dam. The council is considering a not-to-exceed amount of $25,000 for this work, which includes a mobilization cost of $8,360 for the diving crew. This opportunity is significant for vendors specializing in underwater repairs and maintenance, as it may lead to additional work if the repairs can be completed efficiently.
