The project involves performing CCTV inspections of approximately 467 miles of sewer pipeline across five service areas in California, including Moreno Valley and Menifee, to verify and validate previous analytical results. The work is structured over five fiscal years, beginning in FY 2026/27 and continuing through FY 2030/31.

Award selection is based on best value rather than the lowest price, with evaluation factors focusing on the firm's experience, personnel qualifications, and organizational structure. Contractors must provide a comprehensive work plan including safety protocols, quality control measures, and a Cal/OSHA compliance history. Mandatory requirements include a signed Insurance Affidavit, Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) registration for prevailing wages, Confined Space Entry Training Certification, and a Non-Disclosure Agreement. Additionally, the contract requires both payment and performance bonds. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the EMWD e-Procurement portal by December 11, 2026, with any hard copy, fax, or email submissions resulting in disqualification.
