Wohler Road Bridge Over the Russian River Seismic Retrofit Project

The Wohler Road Bridge Over the Russian River Seismic Retrofit Project, managed by Sonoma County with oversight from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, is authorized under Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS-SON-35832-R3, Amendment 2, pursuant to Fish and Game Code Section 1602 and the California Environmental Quality Act. The project aims to upgrade the bridge structure to meet current seismic safety standards while ensuring compliance with environmental regulations to protect the Russian River and an unnamed tributary in Healdsburg, California. Night work is permitted only with prior written approval from CDFW, and all environmental mitigation measures approved under the agreement are mandatory conditions of project authorization. The lead agency, Sonoma County’s Permit and Resource Management Department, coordinates with CDFW as the responsible agency for environmental oversight, with key contacts including Jackson Ford for administrative coordination and James Hansen for environmental compliance. No formal contract value, pricing structure, or federal acquisition regulation clauses are documented, as this endeavor operates under state environmental permitting rather than traditional federal procurement frameworks. The project’s scope is defined by CEQA findings and the specific terms of the amended streambed alteration agreement, with inspection and acceptance responsibilities resting with governmental entities at the project site. There is no indication of subcontracting requirements, socioeconomic certifications, payment office details, accounting codes, or formal delivery schedules. The absence of FAR clauses, Section K representations, or specified contract types underscores the nature of this arrangement as an environmental permit with associated construction activities, rather than a competitively bid federal contract. All actions are governed by state laws and regulatory approvals, with administrative oversight maintained through EPIMS and CEQA-related documentation systems.
