Everett Smelter Plume, Upland Area Cleanup

The Washington Department of Ecology's Toxics Cleanup Program is issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select the most qualified Architectural/Engineering (A/E) firm to provide engineering services for the Everett Smelter Plume, Upland Area Cleanup project in Snohomish County and Everett, Washington. The selected firm will be expected to provide a range of services including engineering design, bidding support, construction management, warranty support, and project closeout for four public works projects - three residential property cleanup projects with approximately 40 properties each, and one project for a mausoleum. The project is expected to be completed in phases over several years, with an estimated period of performance from Q4 2024 to Q4 2029. The RFQ outlines a two-phase qualifications-based selection process, including an initial Statement of Qualifications evaluation and a subsequent interview phase. The selected firm will be expected to comply with requirements regarding conflicts of interest, confidentiality, and diverse business inclusion in their team and approach.

The project is funded through state appropriations, though the total estimated project cost is not available at this time. The RFQ does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendors or current contractors are not listed, and the RFQ does not provide information on any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. As the total project cost is not disclosed, the possible award value or budget range is also not available.
