The Bureau of Reclamation, Upper Colorado Regional Office, is requesting information and seeking potential sources to meet a requirement to evaluate and report on existing and new data to determine Evapotranspiration (ET) of irrigated lands in the Upper Green River Basin in the State of Wyoming utilizing Remote Sensed Data for at least two irrigation seasons between 2011 - 2020 water years, to determine consumptive use of water in that drainage. The work required under the contract is part of the overall Colorado River Compact Administration Program's "Consumptive Use Determination Plan" as developed by the Wyoming State Engineer's Office (SEO). The overall goal of that plan is to develop, implement, and refine a comprehensive and efficient water use monitoring program in the Colorado River basin in Wyoming. Since this is follow-on work to that previously performed using Mapping EvapoTranspiration using high Resolution and Internalized Calibration (METRIC) modeling, that modeling process will be required for this work to provide data consistency. Further, the contractor will use an open source Python-based tool set (e.g. pyMETRIC developed at Desert Research Institute (DRI)) to afford comparability and interaction with the SEO's in-house processes. Offerors will be required to show they have experience with or appropriate resources to apply the METRIC modeling process and Python-based tool set.
