Description
USDA NRCS Missouri State Office, Engineering Section needs to purchase Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) Equipment for hydrographic survey applications. There are EWP projects where floods have blocked drainage systems and created reaches of channels that are flooded. A sediment survey is necessary to document the before and after conditions. Also use the USV to get a survey on WRE, EQIP and other practices that we work on. This equipment will make the process safer for employees as well as more productive.
