Geohydrological Services for Storm-Damaged Schools

The South African government is inviting tenders for geohydrological professional services aimed at addressing the impact of storm damage on Matleu Primary School and Magukunjan Secondary School. This initiative is part of a broader effort to restore educational facilities affected by severe weather events. The selected service provider will be responsible for conducting thorough geohydrological assessments, which include evaluating groundwater conditions, soil stability, and potential risks associated with flooding and erosion. Additionally, the contractor will provide recommendations for remediation and preventive measures to ensure the long-term sustainability of these educational institutions.

The scope of work encompasses site visits, data collection, analysis, and the preparation of detailed reports outlining findings and suggested interventions. The successful bidder will need to demonstrate a strong understanding of local geohydrological conditions and possess the necessary tools and methodologies to conduct comprehensive assessments. This project not only aims to restore the affected schools but also to enhance the resilience of educational infrastructure against future storm events, thereby safeguarding the learning environment for students and staff alike.
