This is a Request for Statements of Qualifications (RFSQ) issued by the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation for the procurement of as-needed aquatic growth control services. The RFSQ seeks to develop a Master Agreement to consolidate all aquatic weed and algae growth control services across several Department lake facilities under a single contract. A mandatory Contractor's Conference will be held on Wednesday, October 3, 2018, at 10:00 a.m. at The Arboretum of Los Angeles County, Palm Room, 301 North Baldwin Avenue, Arcadia, California 91007, with attendance strongly recommended for contractors or their authorized representatives. Statements of Qualifications must be submitted no later than 12:00 noon on Tuesday, October 16, 2018, to the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation, Contracts Division, located at 1000 South Fremont Avenue, Unit #40, Building A-9 West, 2nd Floor, Alhambra, California 91803. A contact list will be provided at the conference to facilitate site visit scheduling. SOQs received after the initial submission deadline will be evaluated following the execution of initial Master Agreements.

Minimum qualifications for contractors include possession of a valid California Pest Control Business License, an Agricultural Pest Control Advisor License (Category E), and a Qualified Applicator's License (Category F), along with a minimum of three years of experience in aquatic weed and algae growth control services within the preceding five-year period. Contractors are encouraged to submit questions prior to or at the conference, as follow-up inquiries may not be addressed thereafter. The RFSQ document and registration information are available on the County's website.
