The document "Stone_Lock_desing_Charette_image.docx" is an image file related to the West Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency's (WSAFCA) environmental consulting solicitation for levee improvement projects. The project involves preparing environmental review documentation under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to support the United States Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE) investigations, design, and construction activities for multiple levee systems, including the Sacramento River West North (SRNL) levees, Stone Lock levees, and potentially the Yolo Bypass East Levee (YBEL). The environmental consulting services will support flood risk reduction projects in the West Sacramento area, with WSAFCA and the Central Valley Flood Protection Board acting as non-federal project sponsors.

The solicitation indicates that WSAFCA will negotiate a contract with the most qualified and cost-effective consultant through a Request for Proposals (RFP) process. The project involves environmental compliance and documentation for critical infrastructure improvements, with the USACE leading the actual flood risk reduction implementations. The non-federal sponsors include WSAFCA and the Central Valley Flood Protection Board, working through the Department of Water Resources, to advance these important flood control and infrastructure resilience efforts in California's Sacramento region.
