The purpose of the geotechnical assessment is to complete the initial stage of evaluating the dam's performance, which includes a site assessment, installing instrumentation, and soil testing at Cypress Lake East, Cypress Lake West, and West Poplar Dams. This information will be used to further assess all geotechnical considerations required for the performance and safety of the dam going forward. The project can be divided into two phases: Phase 1 will include comprehensive site inspections, site surveys, review of existing data, knowledge gaps identification, and work plan development for the field investigation program for Phase 2 at all three dams. A brief report summarizing the knowledge gaps and a work plan for Phase 2 should be submitted to WSA for review and acceptance. This report can be a single document covering all three dams. Phase 2 will include a drilling program for the installation of geotechnical instrumentation and the collection of samples for determination of material strength parameters. Three individual, factual geotechnical investigation reports (one for each dam) summarizing the field work completed as part of Phase 2 should be submitted to WSA for review and acceptance. Please note that a Phase 3, which typically includes analysis, modelling, and recommendations, is not included in the scope for this RFQ. However, WSA may enter into an agreement for Phase 3 deliverables with the successful consultant. WSA makes no guarantee of exclusivity or volume of work to be awarded beyond the scope of this RFQ.
