The City of Fort Bragg (City) is seeking proposals from qualified engineering firms interested in contracting with the City to provide construction management and inspection services (CM) for the Fort Bragg Water Treatment Plant Upgrade Project (Project), Project WTR-00017. The City anticipates the start of construction in March 2024. The engineers estimate of construction cost is $10.1 million. The City is seeking services to provide construction inspection and materials testing for the duration of the project. The contract allows 520 working days for completion of the project over two construction seasons. The Water Treatment Plant (WTP) is located at 31301 E. Cedar Street, Fort Bragg, CA 95437. The WTP was originally built in 1958. There was a major treatment process upgrade at the plant in 1986 which made the nominal plant capacity 2.2 MGD. The upgrade replaced the old treatment process with two packaged Trident filter treatment units (FTUs). Since then the treatment process has mostly remained unchanged. The last major improvement project at the plant was constructed in 2004 and modified the raw water storage ponds to construct backwash water storage ponds. The current treatment process relies on the two packaged Trident FTUs. The FTUs receive pumped raw water from two unlined raw water storage ponds. The FTUs employ three basic treatment elements: 1) adsorption, 2) clarification, and 3) filtration, all inside the packaged unit. After raw water is treated by the FTUs the filter effluent is disinfected before it is directed to the finish water clear well. The finish water is then pumped up to storage tanks where it is stored prior to city-wide distribution. The Project is funded by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), and as such, the funds for this project are federal funds, the project must comply with Federal and State bid contracting guidelines. The Citys project manager will be the CMs primary contact. Proposals will be reviewed and evaluated by the City. Interviews may be required after the City evaluates the proposals. A recommendation for award of contract will be presented to the Fort Bragg City Council on February 12th 2024. The CM is required to attend this meeting to answer any additional questions from the Council. Questions should be directed to: City of Fort Bragg 416 North Franklin Street Fort Bragg CA 95437 John Smith Director of Public Works (707) 961-2823, x 136 E-mail: jsmith@fortbragg.com and Heath Daniels Operations Manager (707) 961-4141 Email: hdaniels@fortbragg.com The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time.
