New Aquatic and Community Center at Heather Farm Park Project

The project centered at Heather Farm Park in Walnut Creek, California, involves the demolition of the existing Heather Farm Community Center and Clarke Aquatic Center, alongside the construction of a new combined Aquatic/Community Center, modification of the Concrete Pond, expansion of the Nature Lake, and associated site improvements including parking enhancements. The initiative is led by the City of Walnut Creek as the project applicant and is governed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife under Lake Alteration Agreement EPIMS-CCA-49117-R3, authorized by Fish and Game Code Section 1602. Environmental compliance is ensured through a Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared under the California Environmental Quality Act, with all activities subject to approved mitigation measures to address potential impacts on aquatic resources and surrounding habitats. The project site is located at 301 North San Carlos Drive, Walnut Creek, and all construction, inspection, and acceptance activities occur on-site. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife holds primary oversight responsibility, while the City of Walnut Creek serves as the lead agency coordinating implementation. Contact points include Sanjay Das of CDFW for environmental enforcement and Rich Payne of the City of Walnut Creek as the lead agency representative. No formal contract value, pricing structure, delivery schedule, or federal acquisition regulations are included in the documentation, as this is an environmental permitting and infrastructure development project under state law rather than a federally procured contract. There are no identified FAR clauses, subcontractor certifications, socioeconomic requirements, or invoicing systems specified, as the arrangement operates entirely within the context of state environmental compliance and local public works.
