- Description
- The Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region and National Park Service, Lake Mead National Recreation Area (LMNRA) have a requirement for a planning study to determine whether a Lake Mead - Hoover Dam Welcome Center is feasible, and if so what size it should be, where it should be located, and how it should be organized and operated. The facility would be a multi-use "gateway" to the Lake Mead LMNRA and to Hoover Dam that would enhance tourism by orienting visitors to recreational, educational, and sightseeing opportunities in the LMNRA and at Hoover Dam. The facility would likely serve as a hub for various modes of transportation providing access to points in the LMNRA and to Hoover Dam, and would provide parking for visitors and tour buses. The welcome center would be designed to achieve LEED (Silver or greater) certification and to fit harmoniously with the natural landscape and existing facilities in the area. Site selection is an important element in achieving LEED certification. The study will include determining problems and needs; formulating alternatives; developing operational plans, estimating construction and operation costs; assessing non-federal funding sources; preparing business plans to show self-sustaining operation; evaluating alternative energy sources; and conducting evaluations such as a fatal flaw analysis, a multi-attribute matrix analysis, and a value analysis. Interim reports and presentations, as well as a final report will be required to document the study results. The place of contract performance is at the successful contractor's location and Boulder City, NV. Boulder City is 26 miles southeast of Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada.
