RFP-MD-18062-F - Wastewater Treatment Facility Flood Mitigation Design

During the flood event of September 11, 2013 to September 30, 2013, the WWTP received flood water from various sources. These flood waters inundated several buildings damaging contents, electrical components and equipment. A review of the facility was conducted with a FEMA 406 Hazard Mitigation Specialist HM/HPA (HASP) and it exposed several conditions that may have contributed to this damage. The flood water was deep enough to allow water to enter through doorways and there is a ductbank conduit system throughout the facility that connects certain buildings. This ductbank conduit system allowed the flood water to enter buildings from below grade. Section II.A. Scope of Services of this request for proposals (RFP) outlines a description of the proposed hazard mitigation developed by FEMA for each designated area in the facility.
 
The Consultant awarded for the mitigation design is expected to review the proposed mitigation and perform their own review of the affected buildings to develop a final scope of design and bid documents. The scope of work outlined below is expected to comprise the majority of the work and should be used to develop the Consultant’s pricing for the design in their proposal. 
 
Consultant must complete the design and construction of the mitigation projects by the December 31, 2018 FEMA deadline.
