RFP 2025--01 design, permitting and bid support for campcreek streambank stabalization

The City of Lilburn, located in Gwinnett County, Georgia, has issued RFP 2025-01 for design, permitting, and bid support services for the Camp Creek Streambank Stabilization project. The procurement seeks a qualified consultant to implement green infrastructure improvements within Lilburn City Park, focusing on stabilizing approximately 890 linear feet of Camp Creek within the Yellow River's headwaters in the Ocmulgee Watershed. Specific deliverables include comprehensive site data review, community outreach, stream stabilization design, permitting support, and potential construction administration services. The project requires a multifaceted approach involving hydrological and geotechnical analysis, landscape architectural services, arborist assessments, and permitting coordination across federal, state, and local environmental regulations. Key evaluation criteria will include the consultant's experience, proposed approach, team qualifications, project timeline, references, and regulatory compliance strategies. The RFP includes a mandatory pre-proposal conference scheduled for October 17, 2025, with final proposals due on November 21, 2025, at 2:00 pm. The project is supported by a federal earmarked EPA Community Grant through the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF), with matching funds available for construction and contract administration.

The solicitation does not explicitly specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses. The project appears open to consultants with demonstrated expertise in streambank stabilization and experience with local government infrastructure projects. The restoration effort will focus on bio-engineered stabilization techniques, including installing stacked rock wall stabilizations, coir matting, vegetation enhancements, in-stream structures like rock cross vanes and log vanes, and potential pedestrian bridge and trail construction. While specific budget ranges are not detailed in the documents, the project involves comprehensive environmental restoration across approximately 890 linear feet of stream channel and its associated 50-foot riparian buffers. The scope suggests a significant investment in ecological restoration, flood resilience, and recreational infrastructure improvements within Lilburn City Park. No incumbent vendors or existing contractors are mentioned in the procurement documents, and the project appears to be initiating a new comprehensive stream restoration and green infrastructure initiative.
