About this opportunity
Pinellas County is seeking proposals for the Joe's Creek Stream Restoration project, a comprehensive urban stream restoration initiative focused on phosphorus mitigation utilizing innovative chemical application and monitoring technologies. The Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued on August 29, 2025, with questions due by September 16, 2025, and proposals due September 30, 2025, at 3:00 pm. The project involves implementing an inline automated injection technology to apply lanthanum-based phosphorus sequestration agents into Joe's Creek and four adjacent small lakes, with the goal of removing phosphorus from water columns and inactivating legacy phosphorus in sediments. The total project scope covers a 9.8-mile urbanized stream within a 9,256-acre watershed, aiming to reduce an estimated 2,100 pounds of phosphorus and improve water quality. Contractors will be responsible for developing a Quality Assurance Project Plan, conducting design and permitting, performing treatment applications and monitoring, and submitting a comprehensive final report. The evaluation criteria include contractor qualifications (30%), approach (30%), statement of work (25%), compensation (10%), and compliance with RFP requirements (5%). The contract term is 880 consecutive calendar days, with implementation proposed for summer 2026.
The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types, though potential vendors mentioned include SePRO and Applied Ecology. The project is 100% grant funded by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), with a total budget of $901,840 allocated across four primary tasks: Quality Assurance Project Plan ($5,000), Design and Project Management ($225,000), Treatment Application and Monitoring ($671,840), and Final Report and Presentation ($25,000). The funding will be reimbursed through the Public Works Department's Surface Water Assessment Fund in fiscal years 2025-2028. Contractors will utilize two specific lanthanum-based chemicals: EutroSORB WC for water column treatment and EutroSORB SI for sediment inactivation, with approximately 2,700 gallons of sediment treatment and 2,000 gallons of water column treatment planned. The project will employ three NuLAB automated monitoring systems to collect comprehensive water quality and sediment data before, during, and after treatment. Additional contract requirements include compliance with various affidavits, including a Common Carrier Attestation, Foreign Countries of Concern Affidavit, and Human Trafficking Affidavit.
Opportunity text
Pinellas County is invested in improving Joe's Creek water quality so local urban communities can enjoy outdoor recreational opportunities centered around safe, clean, and enjoyable water. This project involves coupling innovative chemical application and monitoring approaches to remove Phosphorus (P) within the waters of Joe's Creek as well as inactivating legacy P in the sediment of the four small lakes within Joe's Creek flow path. This project proposes an inline automated injection technology for continuous application of a lanthanum-based P sequestration agent into Joe's Creek, as well as the application of lanthanum-based treatments to sequester sediment-bound P within the four lakes.
