Sutter Bypass Pumping Plant Rehabilitation Project

The California Department of Water Resources is undertaking the Sutter Bypass Pumping Plant Rehabilitation Project at three pumping plant sites along the East Levee of the Sutter Bypass in Sutter County, California, under a revised Streambed Alteration Agreement issued by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife pursuant to Fish and Game Code Section 1602. The project builds upon prior work that included demolition of abandoned structures, extension of gravity drain pipes, levee reconstruction, conduit installation, and sump basin filling, and now requires removal of existing concrete footings and aprons at all three pumping plants, installation of new footings, aprons, and stop-log structures, replacement of riprap with new materials, offsite disposal of excavated spoils, placement of fill for access ramps, and full restoration of all disturbed areas to ensure environmental compliance and structural integrity. The work is subject to conditions outlined in the CEQA Mitigated Negative Declaration and must adhere to regulatory requirements enforced by CDFW as the permitting authority, with inspections and acceptance occurring on-site at the three locations. Mitra Emami of the Department of Water Resources serves as the primary project representative, while Annalise Metzger of CDFW acts as the responsible environmental contact, though no formal contracting officer or technical representative designations are specified in the documentation. The project has been posted as a forecast on September 10, 2025, under NAICS code 237990, but no contract value, pricing details, delivery schedule, payment terms, invoicing method, or standard federal acquisition clauses are provided, and the regulatory notification serves as the primary legal instrument governing the scope and environmental conditions of the work.
