Friends of The Winooski River is a Vermont-based entity dedicated to restoring and protecting the ecological integrity of the Winooski River watershed through targeted infrastructure interventions and strategic planning. Its core mission centers on aquatic habitat rehabilitation, flood resilience, and sustainable land-use planning, with a strong emphasis on removing obsolete dams, restoring natural stream flows, and enhancing riparian ecosystems. Strategic priorities include integrated watershed management, climate-adaptive infrastructure, and community-driven environmental planning, often executed through collaborative design and engineering partnerships. Key programs focus on dam removal, culvert modernization, and watershed-scale ecological enhancement, leveraging science-based design to improve water quality and aquatic connectivity. The agency primarily procures professional engineering services, landscape architectural design, and specialized construction solutions to support its restoration objectives. Contracts are typically issued as sole-source or competitive solicitations without set-asides, indicating a preference for technical expertise over socioeconomic preferences.

Engineering services (NAICS 541330) dominate procurement activity, reflecting the agency’s reliance on civil and environmental engineers for dam removal design and stream restoration planning. Landscape architecture (541320) and management consulting (541618) support ecological master planning and sustainability strategy development, while industrial instrumentation (334513) and advertising services (541890) serve niche monitoring and public engagement needs. The agency maintains a vendor relationship model centered on specialized technical firms with demonstrated experience in fluvial geomorphology and environmental infrastructure. Organized under the Vermont state government, Friends of The Winooski River operates as a mission-driven unit with statewide influence focused on the Winooski River basin.
