Geotechnical Investigation of Donovan Reservoir Dam

The contract entails a comprehensive geotechnical investigation of the Donovan Reservoir Dam to evaluate its structural integrity, foundation conditions, and associated geohazards including slope stability and seismic risks. The scope requires detailed analysis of soil and rock properties, subsurface conditions, and potential failure mechanisms that could compromise the dam’s long-term safety and performance. This work is critical to informing risk mitigation strategies and ensuring the dam meets current engineering and regulatory standards. The contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541620, indicating it involves environmental consulting services. It was posted on July 10, 2026, and is administered by the California State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Financial Assistance. The place of performance is tied to the dam’s location in California, though specific city or county details are not provided. The work must align with state and federal guidelines for infrastructure assessment and will likely inform future maintenance, repair, or regulatory compliance efforts for the reservoir system.
