Project summary
Kerr County seeks an engineering firm for repair plans, specifications and environmental permitting for Flat Rock Dam (Kerrville Lake Dam), a 20-foot-high, 815-foot-long concrete-capped earthen dam on the Guadalupe River. After the July 2026 flood, a TCEQ dam safety inspection found large sections of the downstream right-bank slope protection displaced and, in some areas, voids 2-5 feet deep under the remaining concrete, up to 8 feet into the bank. Plans and permitting must satisfy TCEQ and FEMA review and approvals; work may include emergency recommendations and construction-phase tasks.
Agency requirements
Four sealed hard copies to the County Clerk; no fax or email. Ten one-sided pages, covers and resumes included. List five similar projects from the past ten years, sub-consultant roles and any local-firm use; team changes need County approval; commitment letters may be required. Scoring: understanding 20, team 40, local sensitivity 30, financial responsibility, budget and schedule 10. Sample agreement: $1 million professional liability that also covers subcontractors' work, plus general, auto and workers' comp; subcontractors carry the same workers' comp and liability insurance. Time-and-materials by work request, up to $150,000. Written questions only; no pre-submittal meeting listed.
