Hamilton Bend Mitigation Bank Project (PD-25-7)

The Hamilton Bend Mitigation Bank Project (PD-25-7) is a habitat restoration initiative led by Colusa County, California, to create 205.08 acres of compensatory mitigation credits for riverine and floodplain riparian ecosystems. The project includes three distinct habitat zones: 60 acres designated for VELB (Vernal Pool-Dependent Endangered and Threatened Species) habitat, 107 acres for riverine riparian restoration, and 36 acres for floodplain riparian enhancement, all aimed at supporting native species such as salmonids and green sturgeon. Environmental compliance is governed under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), with a Negative Declaration formally approved to acknowledge the project’s mitigated environmental impacts. The project site is located in Colusa County with a performance location noted at zip code 95864, and all restoration and monitoring activities are to occur on-site. Westervelt Ecological Services is identified as the project applicant responsible for implementation, while Ciara Fisher of Colusa County serves as the primary point of contact for administrative and planning matters. No formal federal contract clauses, pricing details, payment instructions, or procurement evaluation criteria are present, as the documentation reflects a state-level environmental mitigation effort rather than a federal acquisition. Submission of related materials was directed via U.S. mail to the Colusa County office by the October 21, 2025 deadline, with no electronic portals or standardized federal invoicing systems referenced. The project generates transferable habitat credits for off-site regulatory compliance but lacks specification of contract value, performance timelines, inspection protocols beyond CEQA requirements, or any formal designation of contracting officer representatives. No socioeconomic certifications, unique entity identifiers, or federal registration data are provided, underscoring the non-federal and environmentally focused nature of this undertaking.
