Floodplain Design

I. STATEMENT OF WORK

A. SCOPE

It is the intent of these specifications, terms, and conditions to describe the design,

monitoring, and planning of two large-scale floodplain and spawning habitat restoration

projects along the Mokelumne River.

East Bay Municipal Utility District (District) intends to award a 3-year contract to the

Proposer(s) who best meets the District’s requirements.

B. PROPOSER QUALIFICATIONS

1. Proposer Minimum Qualifications

a. Proposer, Proposer’s principal, or Proposer’s staff shall have been

regularly engaged in the business of developing 2-D hydraulic models for

the purpose of evaluating physical habitat, geomorphic processes, and

base flood elevations for at least 3-years. Further experience is required in

using hydraulic modeling to plan and design a minimum of three

floodplain/spawning habitat projects of similar size and scope on other

large rivers systems.

b. Proposer shall possess all permits, licenses, and professional credentials

necessary to perform services as specified under this RFP.

C. SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS

1. Basic Information

This project will be broken down into seven categories and/or job tasks which include:

1) baseline surveys and assessment, 2) engineering design and analysis, 3) permitting, 4)

monitoring plan development, 5) pre-project monitoring, 6) project management, and

7) reporting.

Baseline Surveys and Assessment

Baseline data will be collected to develop and refine conceptual alternatives that are

viable restoration strategies for both sites. Baseline data collection will include surveys

of vegetation (including elderberry and gallery trees), wetland delineation, bed material

substrate, topography and bathymetry, as well as bed and bank characteristics. Field

surveys will be conducted to verify the topobathymetric survey, especially in areas in

the river channel. These surveys will be used to create a base map upon which

engineering designs will be based. Riverbed substrate, bank, and cover characteristics

will be mapped to further inform existing habitat suitability and design development.
