This is a Scope of Work document for the King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks, addressing improvements to the Snoqualmie River at the Ballard Bridge property in Seattle, Washington. The project involves riverbank stabilization and habitat restoration work, with the primary objective of restoring ecological function and preventing further erosion along the affected shoreline. The scope encompasses installation of native plantings, removal of invasive species, construction of erosion control structures, and site grading to support river health and public access improvements. The work is expected to be completed within twelve months of contract award, with a contract term of one year with a potential one-year renewal option contingent upon satisfactory performance and available funding.

The project is funded through King County's capital improvement budget, with an estimated project cost range of $150,000 to $250,000 depending on final design specifications and contractor proposals. The contract is open to qualified contractors meeting King County's procurement requirements and bonding standards. No incumbent contractor is specified. The county anticipates releasing the final solicitation in late 2016, with proposals due within thirty days of solicitation release. A pre-bid site visit is required for all interested bidders, with a mandatory bidder's conference scheduled to address technical questions and clarify scope elements. Award is anticipated within sixty days of proposal closing, pending final negotiations and council approval.
