The City of Waco is soliciting bids for the Gibbon and Lemur Island erosion repair project at the Cameron Park Zoo, aiming to stabilize the slopes and prevent future erosion through grading, gabion mattress installation, and grouted riprap placement. The project involves reshaping the existing terrain around both islands to create a solid foundation for erosion control measures, which include installing stone-filled wire mesh baskets with filter fabric underneath to ensure long-term stability and environmental integration. Additional protection will be provided with grouted riprap in steeper or high-flow areas, with careful joint work to prevent water infiltration and erosion. Throughout construction, erosion control measures such as silt fencing and sediment barriers will be maintained to protect the surrounding pond ecosystem and wildlife. The work is expected to be completed within 90 days from the notice to proceed, with strict adherence to specified materials, grading, and environmental standards, supported by regular inspections. The contract requires the contractor to perform at least 30% of the work personally and includes liquidated damages of $950 per day for delays. The project’s total value is estimated between $500,000 and $1.5 million, with the primary point of contact being Purchasing Agent Chris Hanchard.
