Background
Five Counties Salmonid Conservation Program is a program of the non-profit Northwest CA RC&D Council. This is a restoration project designed to reduce road-related sediment from delivering to streams. This project falls within the category of projects for which an informal bid notice is required per section 22032 of the Public Contract Code. The Council envisions entering into an agreement with a responsible contractor where compensation is based on time and materials.
Location of Project:
This project will be conducted entirely on private roads in Trinity County. These roads are adjacent to Browns Creek and are accessed via State Hwy 3 and Deerlick Springs Road, which is a county road. The roads being treated in this project are approximately 12 ft wide on average. Road slopes range from 2% to 12% and average approximately 7%. Out of respect for privacy, contractors are asked to please not visit the project site in advance of being invited. A site visit will be conducted with Council staff overseeing the project once a Proposal and contractor have been selected.
Project Description:
Project work consists of: replacing four to six existing stream crossing culverts with new culverts ranging from 48 inch to 72 inch diameter corrugated metal pipes and geotextile fabric; installing two 18" diameter road drainage culverts; installing ten rolling dips and six to seven critical dips; rocking road with approximately 440 tons of road base; applying approximately 155 yd3 of 12" rip rap and 150 yd3 of 6" rip rap armoring; end-hauling spoils to designated areas; and implementing erosion and sediment control measures. A consulting engineering geologist/construction manager and/or other specialists will be on-site to provide direction and inspect work on a regular basis. More detailed treatments, standard specifications for treatments, and construction best management practices required for the project are included in the Council's sample contractor agreement (also linked below). The work described in the sample agreement is specific to this project and informal bid notice. However the terms of the agreement are for reference only as the actual agreement and terms to be used for this project may be modified.
