Ramona Grasslands Preserve Project

The Ramona Grasslands Preserve Project involves ecological restoration and recreational trail development within unincorporated San Diego County, approximately six miles east of I-15 and 1.5 miles north of SR-78. The project closes and passively restores the western-most 1.1 miles of the Old Survey Road 97 trail while constructing a new 1.26-mile rerouted trail alignment to replace it. Both the new and existing trails will be opened for year-round use by equestrians, hikers, and cyclists, eliminating seasonal restrictions and permit requirements in the northwest portion of the preserve. Work includes invasive species control, native habitat restoration, stormwater management, and implementation of best management practices to ensure compliance with CEQA and the County Watershed Protection Ordinance, with greenhouse gas emissions capped below 900 metric tons annually. The project requires adherence to environmental regulations including Title 22 CCR, SDAPCD Rules, and Regional Water Quality Control Board standards, with hazardous materials handled in accordance with state and federal guidelines for containment and disposal. Administrative oversight and acceptance authority reside with the County of San Diego, Department of Parks and Recreation, located at 5500 Overland Avenue, San Diego, CA. Inspection and acceptance are governed by CEQA Guidelines, the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and agency-specific standards for water quality, erosion control, and cultural resource protection. While the project was approved on September 17, 2025, with a posted date of September 19, 2025, no formal contract type, pricing, payment terms, or procurement details such as CLINs, solicitation numbers beyond the environmental review identifier, or award methodology are present in the documentation. Key contacts include Shannon Quigley-Raymond as the primary point of contact for land use and environmental planning, with Megan Hamilton and Renee Hilton serving as program and administrative liaisons. No FAR clauses, packaging requirements, MIL-STD references, contractor certifications, or proposal submission instructions were included in the materials, indicating this is an internally managed environmental land use initiative rather than a competitively awarded federal contract.
