Quick Summary
The Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, is issuing a pre-solicitation notice for A&E Inspection Services (Non-Construction) for bridge inspections in Wyoming.

Scope of Work
The requirement is for inspections of inaccessible bridge areas at four locations: Boysen Dam Power Intake bridge, Seminoe Spillway bridge, Alcova Spillway bridge, and Buffalo Bill Spillway bridge.
