The Watershed Conservation Authority (WCA) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for invasive species removal on the floodplain north of the San Gabriel River at Azusa Wilderness Park, located at 100 N Old San Gabriel Canyon in Azusa, in Los Angeles County.
The contract will be awarded to the best qualified Consultant whose proposal is determined to be the most advantageous to the WCA and the Project, based on demonstrated competence and on the professional qualifications necessary for the satisfactory performance of the services required at a fair and reasonable price. The successful Consultant may be awarded multi-year agreements on a fixed rate basis.
WCA encourages proposals for invasive species removal that promote Nature Based Solutions for improving fire resilience through improving site hydrology. Proposals for invasive species removal should minimize chemical use, promote water retention in landscapes, improve surface water quality, build soil, and promote natural reestablishment of native floodplain species. Innovative approaches may be suggested if scientific documentation points to their applicability for the current site conditions. If adequate data is not available, controlled experiments may be conducted to gather data that will inform sustainable land management. The Project seeks to forward sustainable land management approaches that are compatible with community stewardship and engagement.
The WCA encourages Small Businesses and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises to apply.
Potential proposers who would like to visit the sites which are the subject of this RFP may contact [email protected] to indicate their availability for a site visit on a weekday. WCA will seek to accommodate all proposers who indicate interest in a site visit.
