Additional RFI's for Weather Station Upgrade, Multiple Dam Locations, New Mexico and Southern Colorado W912PP25QA044
Summary
AI-generated · Sep 06, 2025Upgrade and expand the weather monitoring network at Abiquiu Lake Dam (NM), Cochiti Lake Dam (NM), Conchas Lake Dam (NM), John Martin Lake Dam (CO), Santa Rosa Lake Dam (NM), and Trinidad Lake Dam (CO). The contractor must provide all equipment and services needed to procure, install, program, and configure a new meteorological monitoring system, including a weather sensor suite (temperature, precipitation, wind speed and direction, solar radiation) and a satellite-linked data logger that transmits data via a GOES satellite antenna to the National Weather Service per data submission standards. Install a new evaporative gauge with an automatic refill system to measure evaporation rates. The upgrade aims to improve flood risk management, hydrologic modeling accuracy, reservoir operations, and dam safety.
Responsibilities include site preparation, equipment mounting, electrical connections, data configuration, system testing, and documentation, with full compliance to USACE and NWS regulations and cybersecurity protocols. The contractor must verify existing conditions, dimensions, and quantities before starting work. The project enhances the existing, aging weather monitoring infrastructure by delivering higher-accuracy data to the NWS via GOES, supporting improved assessment of hydrologic conditions and more informed responses to extreme weather events.
Weather Station Upgrade: Abiquiu Lake Dam, New Mexico Cochiti Lake Dam, New Mexico Conchas Lake Dam, New Mexico John Martin Lake Dam, Colorado Santa Rosa Lake Dam, New Mexico Trinidad Lake Dam, Colorado In accordance with these specifications the Contractor must supply all plant, labor, materials, appurtenances, equipment, shop facilities, supervision, tools, staging, and any other items necessary to procurement, installation, programming, and configuration of updated meteorological monitoring system equipment. The system will consist of a new weather sensor suite measuring key parameters including, but not limited to, temperature, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar radiation. Data will be collected by a satellite linked data logger and transmitted via a GOES satellite antenna to the National Weather Service (NWS) in accordance with established data submission standards. Additionally, a new evaporative gauge with an automatic refill system will be installed to provide accurate measurements of evaporation rates. This system upgrade is critical for enhancing flood risk management capabilities, improving the accuracy of hydrological modeling, and supporting informed decision-making regarding reservoir operations and dam safety. The contractor will be responsible for all aspects of the installation, including site preparation, equipment mounting, electrical connections, data configuration, system testing, and documentation, ensuring full compliance with USACE and NWS regulations and cybersecurity protocols. The Contractor must verify all existing conditions, dimensions, and quantities prior to start of work. Current weather monitoring infrastructure is aging and has limited measurement capability. These accuracy improvements will enhance assessment of hydrologic conditions and improve prediction and response to extreme weather events. This project addresses this need by upgrading and expanding the existing weather station network, ensuring consistent, high-quality data transmission to the NWS via GOES satellite, and providing critical input for improved hydrologic modeling, ultimately bolstering the USACE s ability to fulfill its mission through cooperative efforts with the NWS.
