providing professional design services for the Lower Squalicum Creek Enhanced Treatment (EV182) project. The city is seeking a 90% design for stormwater BMPs for influent runoff to Lower Squalicum Creek. The initial contract will cover up to 90% design but has the potential to continue through final design and construction support as funding becomes available. This project will install bioretention or enhanced treatment BMP system(s) to treat approximately 18 acres of contributing area with more than 2,000 linear feet of roadway along Squalicum Way. Bioretention and proprietary treatment BMPs will be used to achieve enhanced treatment for all these flows that discharge to Lower Squalicum Creek, its subsequent estuary, and nearshore portions of Bellingham Bay. Services, including professional engineering services, and construction engineering and/or administration, may be added/removed from the contract contingent upon funding availability and project needs. This project is funded by a Water Quality Combined Financial Assistance Agreement with the Department of Ecology.
