This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in West Haven, Connecticut. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

The City of West Haven, hereafter referred to as the, "City" is accepting a scope of services, fee and schedule from qualified engineering/environmental consulting firms to complete the following activities under a US Department of Agriculture-Natural Resource Conservation Service (USDA NRCS) agreement covering eight (8) city-owned properties and single structures located at the following locations in the City of West Haven: 120 Brown Street, 158 Jones Street, 304 Peck Avenue, 330 Peck Avenue, 37 Third Ave. Ext, 39 Marshall Street, 42 Marshall Street & 52 Marion Street. The agreement exists between NRCS and West Haven. This RFP would be for a contract with the City. This project is funded through the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Emergency Watershed Protection Program (EWPP). West Haven secured funding for this program after Super Storm Sandy in 2012, which caused significant flood damage. Properties included in this RFP were selected from a list of flood-impacted homes, and owners were approached to sell them through the EWPP Program. The City of West Haven now maintains ownership of the homes and, in accordance with the USDA EWPP agreement, is required to demolish any existing structures and return the parcel to its "natural" state. All included properties are deed restricted to encourage native regrowth and prohibit future construction. The overarching goal of EWPP is to reduce inland flooding impacts by increasing floodwater retention and groundwater recharge, while adding open space to the community. The City reserves the right to reject any or all responses, and to waive any or all formalities in connection with this request. Any responses received after the above scheduled due date and time will be rejected.
