- Description
- The USDA, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) intends to solicit proposals to revise and write Chapter 4, Border Irrigation and Chapter 5, Furrow Irrigation of our National Engineering Handbook (NEH), Part 623. The two chapters will be combined into one chapter. The revised chapters will be updated and modified as necessary to address the needs and requirements of surface irrigation (border, basin and furrow). Both surge irrigation and conventional surface irrigation methods need to be included. The combined manual will have a unified treatment of general information, design, theory, design methodology, example designs, and maintenance. The manual will also contain methods and tools for evaluating, improving and managing existing surface irrigation systems. Tools can include but are not limited to computer software. Information will be in sufficient detail to provide thorough project and on-farm planning and design for surface irrigation. Instructions and examples, along with basic economics will be provided in a manner that NRCS field office level personnel can easily use the document and tools. All mathematical details and examples will be presented in dual units with US primary and metric equivalents secondary. Contractors/participants expressing an interest should submit a proposal. The solicitation will be available on or about July 31, 2003.
