Fulton County, Georgia, is soliciting proposals for a professional firm to provide oversight, management, and administration of the NPDES Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit No. GAS000117. The scope of work involves ensuring full compliance with the EPD approved Stormwater Management Program, achieving measurable goals, and preparing the new permit application and updated Storm Water Management Plan before the current permit expires on June 10, 2029. Key deliverables include the submission of an annual report to the EPD by June 15th each year for the reporting period ending April 30. The contract is expected to begin on January 1, 2027, and focuses on the unincorporated area of Fulton County, specifically the 0.5 square miles between the Fulton County Executive Airport and Interstate 20. Qualified firms must provide key personnel with at least three years of MS4 permitting experience, including a Project Manager with three years of experience within the last five years. Proposals are due by October 21, 2026, via BidNet Direct and will be evaluated on a 100-point scale based on the best overall value rather than cost alone. Preference is given to local businesses with a physical presence in Fulton County for at least one year and certified Service-Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises. Selected consultants must maintain specific insurance coverages, including 2 million dollars for Cyber/Technology Liability and 1 million dollars for Pollution/Environmental Liability, and must submit monthly invoices for payment within 30 days.
