Sewer System Management Plan Update in Compliance with Order WQ 2022-0103-DWQ

The City of Redondo Beach has issued a solicitation (RFP#2526-PW004-50330) seeking qualified firms to update its Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) in compliance with State Water Resources Control Board Order No. WQ 2022-0103-DWQ. The project entails a thorough condition and capacity assessment of the current sewer infrastructure, evaluation of operations and maintenance programs, and the development of prioritized capital improvement plans spanning 5, 10, and 20 years. Deliverables include draft and final SSMP documents, hydraulic modeling reports, condition assessment memoranda, updated GIS asset data, pump station and SCADA analyses, and training materials. All outputs must meet regulatory, City Standard Plans, GREENBOOK, and municipal code requirements, supporting effective sewer system management and regulatory compliance. The City has established a firm budget cap of $1.8 million, inclusive of all labor, materials, subcontractor costs, and overhead. Proposals must be submitted electronically by 5:00 p.m. PST on March 24, 2026, through the City’s procurement portal, adhering to strict formatting and page limits. The evaluation approach prioritizes qualifications, experience, methodology, staffing, and fee structure, employing a best-qualified source selection process rather than lowest-price technically acceptable. The contract will be administered by the City’s Public Works - Engineering department, with multiple designated representatives overseeing execution, invoicing, and compliance. Inspection and acceptance of work are performed primarily onsite within the City, following comprehensive quality and regulatory standards. Federal contract provisions, including compliance with equal employment opportunity, debarment, suspension, and prevailing wage laws, apply, though no specialized FAR clauses or socioeconomic set-asides are involved. Final deliverables require submission in editable formats and supporting digital files on provided external media. The contract emphasizes rigorous documentation, quality assurance, and regulatory adherence to support the City’s comprehensive wastewater system management objectives.
