The Massachusetts Department of Fish and Game, Division of Ecological Restoration (DER), is soliciting applications from Massachusetts municipalities for dam removal preliminary design studies for Fiscal Year 2027. This funding opportunity, identified as solicitation BD-27-1046-DER-FWE01-132415, aims to support early-stage projects focused on ecological restoration and climate adaptation. The DER anticipates spending up to 450,000 dollars to fund preliminary design studies for up to seven high-priority dam removals. Eligible projects must involve dams located within Massachusetts, be municipally owned or beneficial to a municipality, and preferably fall under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Office of Dam Safety. The scope of work for selected projects includes site visits, topographic and bathymetric surveys, sediment quality testing, hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, and the development of a technical report featuring a cost estimate. Applications are evaluated on a 100-point scale, with weights assigned to ecological benefits (40 percent), community benefits (30 percent), environmental justice or vulnerable population benefits (20 percent), and overall project quality (10 percent). Priority is given to high and significant hazard dams in poor or unsafe condition. The period of performance is intended for Fiscal Year 2027, ending June 30, 2027, with a possible one-year renewal at the discretion of the DER. Applicants must submit electronic applications via the DER website, including a completed application form and a signed Dam Owner Access Agreement. Following an initial deadline of September 4, 2026, an amendment updated the response deadline to September 28, 2026. The primary point of contact for this procurement is Anthony Lucivero.
