Nature-like Fishway Pre-construction Site Exploration Project

The Yuba County Water Agency is forecasting a project focused on temporary potholing and subsurface exploration activities near Daguerre Point Dam to gather critical geotechnical data necessary for the final design and construction planning of the proposed Nature-like Fishway project. This pre-construction site exploration work will provide essential subsurface information to inform engineering decisions and ensure the structural integrity and environmental compatibility of the proposed fishway. The work is limited to site characterization efforts and does not include any major construction components. All field activities will be conducted in California, with the specific work location centered on the dam site, and all project correspondence and management will be handled by Jacob Vander Meulen, the Environmental Manager, reachable via phone or email. The project is listed as a forecast with a posting date of May 26, 2026, indicating it is in the preliminary planning stage, with no solicitation number assigned yet and no set-aside provisions specified. The agency has not yet released NAICS codes or organizational details, and the procurement process will likely follow later, pending further internal review and approval.
