The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St Paul District (USACE) is planning the Lac Qui Parle (LQP) Dam Emergency Spillway Repair Construction project.  The LPQ Dam is located on the Minnesota River, 30 miles east of the South Dakota border. While the dam and emergency spillway are located in Lac Qui Parle County, the Minnesota River divides Lac Qui Parle and Chippewa Counties, so Chippewa County is immediately adjacent to the project site. The dam is approximately 7 river miles upstream of Montevideo and 300 river miles upstream of Minneapolis. The dam embankment and emergency spillway are adjacent to and west of the control structure dam, between the control structure and the intersection of Lac Qui Parle County Road 75. The crest of the spillway is the bituminous paving of Lac Qui Parle County Road 33. Lac Qui Parle Dam is designated as a high hazard dam.  The construction project requires, but is not limited to, replacement of the existing grouted riprap with a reinforced concrete spillway slab with upstream and downstream keys and sheet pile cutoff wall, removal, and replacement of asphalt surfacing, traffic control, and a temporary flood protection system.

Interested firms with experience in this type of construction project work, and a bonding capacity of at least $12M, within NAICS Code 237990 – Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction are encouraged to send capabilities and experience statements electronically to:
