The Coyote Point Recreation Area occupies approximately 149 acres of shoreline and is one of the most heavily used parks in San Mateo County, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors each year for recreation, leisure, and educational experiences.

Coyote Point Recreation Area includes a variety of support facilities that sustain park operations and visitor services. The park’s wastewater collection system relies on multiple lift stations to convey sewage from restrooms and other facilities to downstream collection points where gravity flows can resume. Ongoing maintenance and timely repairs of this lift station infrastructure are critical to ensuring sanitary operations, preventing sewage backups or overflows, and maintaining public health and environmental quality at this busy recreational location.

Six (6) lift stations located throughout the park serve restrooms, marina facilities, and park operations. These lift stations vary in configuration, with both single and dual pump systems, and require periodic inspection, preventive maintenance, operational testing, repair, and emergency response services to remain fully functional. The selected Contractor will support the County in maintaining these essential systems to meet operational reliability and regulatory expectations.
