The purpose of this synopsis is to gain knowledge of interest, capabilities and qualifications of various members of industry, to include the Small Business Community: Small Business, Section 8(a), Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUB-Zone), Historically Black Colleges and Universities/Minority Institutions (HBCU/MI), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Economically Disadvantage Woman Owned Small Business.� The Government must ensure there is adequate competition among the potential pool of responsible contractors. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:� The Project is located along Dry Creek, just downstream of Warm Springs Dam near Healdsburg, Sonoma County, California.� The main objective of the project is to restore stream and floodplain habitat for fish and wildlife, including threatened and endangered salmon, along approximately one mile of Dry Creek. The habitat restoration features planned for the project includes construction of stream side channels, riffles, backwaters and alcoves to slow the speed of the water to create refuge for young fish. The features will be constructed using natural materials such as logs and rocks. Bank stabilization measures will prevent or reduce erosion and provide vegetation cover.� The majority of the construction will occur on privately owned vineyard property. The estimated construction price range for this project is $5,000,000 - $10,000,000. It should be noted that this Project is part of a larger Dry Creek ecosystem restoration effort by both USACE and Sonoma Water to restore over six miles of stream and floodplain habitat. While much of this ecosystem restoration has previously been completed by Sonoma Water and USACE, this project is the first of three phases of construction that will restore approximately 2.6 miles (47 acres) of stream and floodplain restoration between 2021-2024. CAPABILITIES AND QUALIFICATIONS: Evaluation of the interested parties� recent knowledge and experience are based on: The capability of constructing stream river and ecosystem restoration features (including but not limited to; installation of structures using logs and boulders (https://www.sonomawater.org/dry-creek-habitat) pinning logs to logs and boulders, placing rip-rap, rock and boulders into channels, fine grading in saturated conditions, installing biotechnical bank protection measures and revegetation) and identifying all necessary support equipment and material sources as part of the response to this Market Research.� Performing the contract work within the in-stream flow work window of June 15 to October 15 in any year. The ability to control turbidity and adapt to changing conditions while working in or near a river or creek channel that requires uninterrupted flow during the entire period of construction. The ability to isolate work areas from the live stream, work below the water table or in saturated conditions, and manage inflowing groundwater. The ability to keep project moving by changing sequence of work with challenges of environmental constraints. The capability to make all necessary equipment available as quick as possible when some work components require changes in order to complete work within environmental window. Ability to be flexible and have a strategy to be adaptive to minor changes or adjustments during placement of large wood structures and habitat wood structures. Ability to work and communicate with local land owners, vineyard managers, and local federal project partners when needed.
