The Wyoming Game & Fish Department issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for professional engineering services to support the North Platte River - Big Muddy Bank Stabilization project. The project involves conceptual bank stabilization alternatives, design options, risk analysis, and 100% design plans for two eroding banks along the North Platte River. The goal is to protect the river from capturing Big Muddy Pond, prevent further loss of an adjacent landowner's hay meadow, promote channel stability, and create localized trout habitat. The contract was awarded to WWC Engineering. Key aspects of the project include:
• Bank stabilization alternatives
• Design options and risk analysis
• 100% design plans for two eroding banks
• Protection of the North Platte River and adjacent land
• Promotion of channel stability and creation of trout habitat
