About this opportunity
The City of Gloversville, located in Fulton County, New York, is seeking a professional engineering firm to conduct a comprehensive flood hazard risk analysis for priority Brownfield sites along the Cayadutta and Mill Creeks. The procurement is a Request for Proposals (RFP) funded by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) to support site redevelopment efforts. The selected firm will perform a detailed flood risk assessment that includes reviewing existing flood information, creating high-level flood area mapping for each targeted parcel, evaluating flood mitigation needs, prioritizing sites, and developing detailed mitigation strategies with associated cost estimates. Key deliverables include a comprehensive study that will examine at least three sites, focusing on flood risks to existing and proposed structures, and providing recommendations to enhance site redevelopment potential. The project objectives specifically target reducing flood hazard risks and improving water quality in the Creek and River Basin. Proposals are due by September 18, 2024, at 12:00 PM, with a contract term of one year. Respondents must carefully review and comply with NYSDEC funding requirements, including Exhibit A and Exhibit B documents attached to the RFP.
The contract includes specific subcontracting goals for diverse business enterprises, with 15% goals for Minority-Owned and Women-Owned businesses, and a 5% goal for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned businesses. There are no Disadvantaged business contracting goals for this opportunity. No incumbent vendors have been identified as having been awarded an identical or substantially similar contract within the past five years. The total project budget appears to be approximately $55,000, with $50,000 in grant funding and a $5,000 local match. The procurement is not designated as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned set-aside, meaning all qualified firms can compete. Respondents will need to demonstrate expertise in brownfields assessment, flood mitigation strategies, environmental regulations, and the ability to work within the specific requirements of NYSDEC grant funding. The City of Gloversville will evaluate proposals based on the firm's qualifications, understanding of the project scope, proposed methodology, and ability to meet the specified objectives and subcontracting goals.
Opportunity text
Gloversville identified priority Brownfield sites for redevelopment based on a Brownfield Opportunity Area study that included site reviews, public engagement and conceptual planning. The sites, along the Cayadutta and Mill Creeks are areas mapped as flood zones and have the potential to be redeveloped. A flood hazard risk reduction and resiliency study will be performed to determine flood risks, flooding area, impacts to existing/proposed structures and identify/evaluate options to mitigate risks. This study will inform site redevelopment with regards to flooding issues on priority parcels and provide a review of options to mitigate the risks that will inform and enhance future site redevelopment. Several of the sites included in this proposed study are dilapidated tanneries, which are contaminated with asbestos, metals, petroleum and other volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds. This study will provide flood mitigation measures to reduce flooding and improve water quality.
The project objective is to reduce flood hazard risk on selected parcels within flood zones that are targeted for redevelopment and enhance flood resiliency. The project objective is to complete a review of readily available flood information to evaluate the impacts of identified sites to inform the redevelopment process, complete high level mapping of site flood areas on each parcel, evaluate the need for flood migration measures, prioritize sites and complete a detailed review of available flood mitigation measures including costs on at least 3 sites that will be available for review as site redeveloped plans are developed. The study should facilitate redevelopment which will positively impact water quality to the Creeks and River Basin.
The individual or firm selected will undertake all the services and comply with all terms and conditions of the NYSDEC funding including Exhibit A, Narratives, and Exhibit B, NYSDEC State Contract with maps and work plan which are attached to this RFP. In submitting a proposal,
