River Study Service

The government authority in Washington requires a vendor to provide a river study service focusing on waterway management consulting. The selected vendor must evaluate the economic impact and changes in economic benefits for recreational opportunities expected from a free-flowing lower Snake River under a breach scenario. The buyer specifically emphasizes recreational salmon and steelhead fisheries in this study. Performance of the work will take place offsite over a one-year contract period. The buyer restricts eligibility to onshore vendors located in the United States only. Interested bidders must attend a pre-bid meeting on September 1, 2026, and submit all questions no later than September 9, 2026. The buyer has not established a fixed budget and is currently looking for proposals to determine the cost.
