STATEMENT OF WORK
INTENT
It is the intent of these specifications, terms, and conditions to describe Phase 2 Environmental
Site Assessment (ESA) Services for 18911 Lake Chabot Road, Castro Valley.
The ACFD intends to award a three (3)-year contract (with option to renew for one (1) year) to
the Proposer selected as the most responsible Proposer whose response conforms to the
RFSOQ and meets ACFD and the County’s requirements for Phase 2 ESA services.
The Proposer awarded a contract for this RFSOQ No. 26-01 cannot bid on any subsequent
RFSOQs for projects developed under contract for this RFSOQ No. 26-01.
The Consultant is expected to collaborate with Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) and
ACFD’s consultants including Bridging Architect, and County departments and divisions,
executive leadership, and staff members.
BACKGROUND
The ACFD provides all-risk emergency services to the unincorporated areas of Alameda County
(excluding Fairview), the cities of San Leandro, Dublin, Newark, Union City and Emeryville, the
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. With
27 fire stations and 33 companies serving a population of 394,000, the ACFD serves densely
populated urban areas, waterways, industrialized centers, extensive urban interface, agricultural
and wildland regions. Over 500 personnel provide a wide variety of services to an ever
expanding, dynamic and diverse area of roughly 508 square miles.
In November 2020, voters in Alameda County’s unincorporated communities adopted Measure
X, the ACFD Fire Safety Bond. Measure X authorizes the ACFD to issue up to $90 million in
general obligation bonds to repair, upgrade, and replace outdated fire stations in order to
maintain fire and emergency medical services in the unincorporated communities of Ashland,
Castro Valley, Cherryland, Livermore, San Lorenzo, and Sunol.
Rebuilding stations 24 and 26 represents phase 2 of our building project. ACFD intends for the
second tranche of bond funds to be released at the start of construction of phase 2.
Construction must then be complete within three (3) years.
