The CITY may make such investigations as it deems necessary to determine the ability of the BIDDER to perform the WORK, and the BIDDER shall furnish all such information and data for this purpose as the CITY may request. The CITY reserves the right to reject any BID if the evidence submitted by, or investigation of, such BIDDER fails to satisfy the CITY that such BIDDER is properly qualified to carry out the obligations of the AGREEMENT and to complete the WORK contemplated therein. The CITY reserves the right to reject bids at their sole discretion.

Each BIDDER and CONTRACTOR shall be licensed in accordance with the laws of the State of California including but not limited to Chapter 9, Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code. Any BIDDER or CONTRACTOR not so licensed is subject to the penalties imposed by such law. Each BIDDER is responsible for inspecting the site and for reading and being thoroughly familiar with the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. The failure or omission of any BIDDER to do any of the foregoing shall in no way relieve any BIDDER from any obligation in respect to his BID. Further, the BIDDER agrees to abide by the requirements under Executive Order No. 11246, as amended, including specifically the provisions of the equal opportunity clause set forth in the SUPPLEMENTAL GENERAL CONDITIONS.

The CITY requests notification of discrepancies in, or omissions from, the CONTRACT DOCUMENTS if any are found by a BIDDER.

Request for Proposal/Qualifications

SUSANVILLE INDIAN RANCHERIA

745 JOAQUIN STREET

SUSANVILLE, CA 96130

The Susanville Indian Rancheria (“Tribe”) is requesting proposals/qualifications (“RFP/Q”) by experienced environmental consulting services companies to perform an environmental assessment (“EA”) for the Susanville Indian Rancheria. An original and two copies of the proposals are to be received by the Susanville Indian Rancheria at the Tribal Office, 745 Joaquin Street, Susanville, CA 96130 by 4:30 P.M., Friday, June 14, 2019. It is anticipated that a decision on the proposals will be the evening of Tuesday, June 18, 2019. The Scope of Work may be examined at the following location: Susanville Indian Rancheria, 745 Joaquin Street, Susanville, CA 96130, telephone: 530-257-6264; or it may be requested via email from jmackay@sir-nsn.gov.

The project generally consists of performing an EA, satisfactory to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, on approximately 18.090 acres that the Tribe recently purchased and proposes to place into trust with the United States government. The project also includes a requirement for performing an EA, satisfactory to the City of Susanville, on the same parcel of land for the Tribe to build a new tribal health clinic and proposed commercial offices. The land is undeveloped and has been primarily used for grazing. An ALTA survey of the land will be performed by the Tribe. The parcel for this project is identified as Lassen County APN 103-190-06-11.

The EA process will involve project coordination, NEPA and CEQA documentation, assistance in acquiring environmental permits, and assistance in negotiating agreements with local governments and businesses. Each proposer should be familiar with the regulations governing the fee-to-trust process for Indian tribes and have the ability to analyze and document the environmental consequences associated with the construction of a new tribal health clinic and businesses. Further, the proposer must be familiar with the various agencies that must be contacted during the environmental assessment process such as the United States Fish and Wildlife Service; Army Corps of Engineers; and the State Historic Preservation Office. The Susanville Indian Rancheria has its own Tribal Historic Preservation Office (THPO) that is available to assist in this process.

The Susanville Indian Rancheria reserves the right to reject any or all proposals.

APPENDIX ‘A’

SCOPE OF SERVICES

PROJECT DESCRIPTION – Material Testing

The overall project consists of the rehabilitation of existing pavement surfaces for local streets. Some streets have been identified for pulverization and re-establishment of appropriate grades and cross slopes utilizing grindings salvaged from other areas of the project. Other streets require a simple edge grind and thin overlay (up to 0.25′). Localized areas have also been determined to need isolated base rock repair and re-establishment of a proper structural section. The consultant shall provide supporting materials and construction related testing along with related engineering services per the following:

• Conducting laboratory analysis tests of treated and untreated bases and basement soils in accordance with the City of Susanville’s Quality Assurance Program;

• Conducting relative compaction tests of treated and untreated bases and basement soils by using nuclear gauge in accordance with the City of Susanville’s Quality Assurance Program;

• Conducting asphalt testing for asphalt concrete, asphalt cement, and liquid asphalt in accordance with the City of Susanville’s Quality Assurance Program, attached as Attachment ‘2’.

• Perform other quality control related services in the field as detailed on Page 1 and following regarding field representative in the observation and making of professional opinions regarding the contractor’s efforts to ensure the Contractor’s delivery of proper materials and application methods.

The tests to be performed shall meet all FHWA requirements for quality control and, at a minimum, be at the frequency indicated in the Testing Frequency Table or as directed by the City Engineer. The number of tests to be performed is provided in the 2017 Construction Manual, Chapter 6 at Table 6-1.13 and the project specifications for testing of aggregate material used in the production of asphalt.

PROJECT SCHEDULE

The project schedule relative to this portion of the work has not been fully determined to date. However, work relative to needed materials oversight is anticipated to commence in late June or early July, weather permitting. The Contractor will be issued a Notice To Proceed commencing on or about July 1, 2019 with sixty (60) working days allocated to complete all aspects of the projects, complete and in place, suitable for the public to navigate City public streets. The anticipated date of completion (considering weather days) is approximately September 30, 2019.

The consultant selected shall be available for the duration of the contract, once paving operations commence (estimated to be on or about the week of the 19th of August 2019) and must be able to respond within 24 hours for testing or pulling of samples as needed. More definitive dates will be made available once the contractor provides a schedule and it is approved by the City. The Contractor must be able to maintain suitable progress, without delay, and cannot be held back as a result of unresponsive test result reporting.

Initial efforts by the Contractor shall consist of demolition for removal of existing pedestrian ramps and replacing them with ADA compliant Portland cement concrete material. Subsequent efforts will consist of the repair of unstable (dig outs and stabilization) various street segments, some are entire City blocks along with isolated areas of localized base failures present in otherwise stable pavement areas and cross slope correcting where identified in the projects plans or as directed by the City Engineer or his authorized representative.
