Citywide Small Trash Capture Project

The City of San Mateo Public Works Department issued solicitation number 673 for the Citywide Small Trash Capture Project to secure professional engineering design services. The primary objective of this initiative is to implement stormwater trash control measures to achieve 100 percent trash reduction, ensuring compliance with the mandates set by the State Water Resources Control Board and the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board under the NPDES Municipal Regional Permit 2.0. The project is supported by a comprehensive cost-benefit evaluation and technical memorandum that analyzes various implementation scenarios and trash control measures to optimize municipal stormwater reduction efforts. The selected firm will be responsible for a comprehensive scope of work including project management, site investigation, and the preparation of detailed plans, specifications, and estimates. Key deliverables include design submittals at 30 percent and 90 percent milestones, final construction documents, and ongoing engineering support during the construction phase. Proposals for these services were due by September 7, 2022, with the resulting engagement governed by a professional services agreement outlining strict requirements for insurance, indemnity, confidentiality, and compliance with local wage ordinances.
