ASSUMPTION PARISH GOVERNMENT
Request for Qualifications:
Engineering Services for
Bayou St. Vincent – LWI Round 2 Project

The Assumption Parish Police Jury (APPJ) is issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) from firms interested in providing engineering and design services for the Bayou St. Vincent Project, a project originating in the Parish’s 2023 Drainage and Flood Mitigation Master Plan.

This project has three main components: reintroduction of natural channel design principles, bridge and culvert replacements, and dredging and cleaning waterways. Natural Channel Design principles will be used to restore or recreate Bayou St. Vincent’s original shape and structure, thereby enhancing drainage capabilities and capacity. The design focuses on reintroducing meanders, riffles, and pools to facilitate efficient water flow, reduce flooding, and emulate the patterns and processes found in healthy, functioning ecosystems. The project also includes the evaluation, sizing, and potential redesign of three bridges and three culverts that cross Bayou St. Vincent (see Attachment 1); this evaluation will need to ensure that new structures meet the Federal Flood Risk Management Standards.

The existing bayou will be surveyed and modeled on a sub-basin scale to determine the necessary extent of dredging and to identify specific sections needing improvement. It is expected that approximately nine miles of waterways will be dredged with up to three feet of material removed, but the exact length and depth will be determined during the design phase and after consideration of the hydrologic and hydraulic study results (H&H study to be performed by another firm, not part of this work scope).

Especially important in this selection is the firm’s experience with designing flood mitigation and drainage projects that include natural channel design, dredging, bridge inspection/replacement, sweeping/cleaning, and hydroseeding.

This $9.08 million project is funded by federal funds through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Disaster Recovery/Mitigation Program, so it must meet CDBG and Office of Community Development (OCD) requirements.
