FY24 - Engineering Service for NRCS EWP Grant - 444 VT Rt 155

The Town of Mount Holly has secured a USDA NRCS Emergency Watershed Protection (EWP) grant to address significant streambank erosion along the property at 444 VT Route 155, which was exacerbated during the July 2023 storm, putting a nearby home at risk. To implement the necessary reinforcement measures, the town is seeking proposals from qualified engineering firms to develop detailed design plans that comply with applicable state and federal standards, including the ANR Rivers and Streams Standards. The scope of work involves preparing construction drawings and specifications, a NRCS Quality Assurance Plan, and providing construction inspection and final inspection services. These drawings and plans will be reviewed by NRCS before the town proceeds with issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for construction services, which the town will administer. The project is part of a solicitation titled "FY24 - Engineering Service for NRCS EWP Grant - 444 VT Rt 155," with a response deadline of September 24, 2024. The contract value is estimated between $50,000 and $150,000, and the project falls under NAICS code 541330 for Engineering Services. Interested firms can contact Caitlin Boyle via email or phone for further details. The project location, scope of work, and relevant manuals are provided in attached documents, including a map and the Vermont Rivers and Roads Field Manual, to guide the design and implementation process.
