From the meeting
An October 26, 2026 memorandum updated the Board on the Rapidan Dam project, including permits, environmental review, and FEMA grant processing. Barr Engineering, FEMA, the USACE, MPCA, FERC, and the Minnesota DNR were all part of the workstream, and the County submitted 60% plans for the preferred alternative. The memo said final scope and cost were signed and submitted on October 26, 2026 for final FEMA approvals and funding authorization.
Decision state: informational update on an active grant-funded project.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
