Instream and Floodplain Habitat Enhancement

The contract concerns the design and implementation of instream habitat enhancements focused on improving fish habitat through the placement of natural structures such as log jams, boulder arrangements, and gravel augmentation. These measures are intended to restore hydraulic complexity and create refuges and spawning areas for native aquatic species. Complementary efforts include reconnecting the floodplain via grading and constructing side channels to reestablish natural hydrologic processes, increase wetted area, and support ecosystem resilience. The work is classified under NAICS code 237990 and is issued as a subcontract under the jurisdiction of Fish and Wildlife, Region 1 - Northern Region, Redding and Eureka, with performance expected within California.
