2026 Pyramid Spillway Repairs (OM-SFD-2026-001)

The California Department of Water Resources is preparing to contract for routine maintenance on the Pyramid Dam Spillway and the outside footing of the right wall, with work scheduled for 2026 under project identifier OM-SFD-2026-001. The scope includes pressure washing, patching, saw cutting, and sandblasting to address spalls, delamination, cracks, and deteriorated joint sealant, along with low-pressure removal of algae and organic growth. All activities are confined within the Department’s right of way at Pyramid Dam in Castaic, Los Angeles County, California, and water generated from hydro demolition and washing operations will be collected via a flip bucket at the spillway base to prevent environmental runoff. The project is classified as a CEQA Class 1 Categorical Exemption under Section 15301, affirming its nature as minor maintenance on an existing facility with no significant environmental impact. Performance is expected to occur on-site, with inspection and acceptance also conducted at the dam location, though specific quality standards, inspection protocols, or acceptance criteria are not detailed in the available documentation. No contract value, pricing structure, or line items are disclosed, and the solicitation remains in forecast status as of the posted date of January 27, 2026, with no stated deadline for proposals or award timeline. The contracting office does not specify contract type, payment details, accounting codes, invoicing systems, or designated contracting officers, representatives, or technical representatives beyond the program contacts Sara Lowry and Janine Beck. No special requirements such as security clearances, key personnel designations, options, or organizational conflict of interest provisions are indicated, and no clauses from FAR Sections I, H, or M, or representations from offerors in Section K, are provided. Attachments are limited to a certified environmental exemption document, and submission instructions remain sparse, noting only an office address in Sacramento for correspondence without specifying electronic portals, file formats, or proposal formatting rules. The North American Industry Classification System code 237990 indicates the work falls under Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction.
