The Shoalwater Bay Indian Tribe is seeking proposals from qualified firms to update our existing Hazard Mitigation Plan in accordance with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) guidelines. The purpose of this update is to identify and assess natural and man-made hazards, and to develop strategies to mitigate or reduce the potential impacts of these hazards.

Proposals that reflect experience working with Native American tribes with proven abilities in the areas of developing and writing Hazard Mitigation Plans in accordance with FEMA guidelines will be the most competitive.

The successful proposer will demonstrate, on the part of the lead planner, knowledge and experience in tribal/local/regional/ and state levels of experience in developing and writing Hazard Mitigation Plans in accordance with FEMA guidelines.

The Shoalwater Bay Indian Tribe reserves the right to waive any informality in the proposal process and will award the contract(s) based upon the qualifications and experience of a firm that best meets the type of work necessary and that are deemed to be in the best interest of the tribe.
