About this opportunity

Pinellas County is seeking a contractor for the Roosevelt Creek Channel 5 Improvements project, an ARPA-funded infrastructure and environmental restoration initiative. The primary objective is to lower an existing salinity weir to create a more natural hydrological connection between Roosevelt Creek Channel 5 and Old Tampa Bay, with goals of improving flood stages, enhancing marine habitat, and facilitating fish passage. Specific project deliverables include lining existing pipe connections, installing manatee grates, implementing manatee protection north of Ulmerton Road, and addressing channel erosion. The project requires contractors to be pre-qualified with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in drainage, grading, and related work types. The invitation to bid was released on January 12, 2024, with questions due by January 24, 2024, and proposal submissions required by January 30, 2024, at 3:00 PM. The contract has a completion time of 440 consecutive calendar days, and bidders must demonstrate technical capabilities through comprehensive documentation, references, and compliance with E-Verify requirements.

The procurement includes a 10% Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation goal, with SBE firms required to be located in Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco, or Manatee Counties. The project is jointly funded by Pinellas County and the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD), with a total project budget of $700,000 split evenly between the two entities. Contractors must provide extensive insurance coverage, including general liability, workers' compensation, and environmental liability policies. The project involves multiple environmental considerations, including wetland impact minimization, water quality monitoring, and compliance with federal and state environmental regulations. While a specific contract award value is not explicitly stated, the pricing proposal includes detailed line items for roadway/drainage, pipe lining, planting, weir structure, and manatee grates. The project is part of a broader environmental restoration initiative aimed at improving ecological conditions in the Old Tampa Bay watershed, with potential beneficial impacts on local marine ecosystems.

Opportunity text

The primary goal of this project is to lower an existing salinity weir (through removal and new construction) to create a more natural hydrological connection between Roosevelt Creek Channel 5 and Old Tampa Bay. This will result in improved flood stages, improved habitat value, and allow for the passage of fish and other marine life. This work also includes lining of existing pipe connections to the channel, installation of manatee grates, and manatee protection installation north of Ulmerton Road in the channel. Erosion will be addressed where noted on the plans.
