General Work Description: The project will develop a transportation facility - capital improvement plan (CIP) for the urbanized areas of Linda, West Linda, and Olivehurst to accommodate the impacts of climate change. Please note that the project area does not include the incorporated cities of Marysville or Wheatland, nor does it include Beale Air Force Base.BackgroundThe County of Yuba is accepting proposals from qualified professional engineering consultants for the development of a Climate Adaptation Capital Improvement Plan. The project represents phase 2 of a comprehensive effort to retrofit the drainage system in the project area, incorporate water quality Best Management Practices (BMPs), and preliminary designs for critical improvements. This project will be funded by state and local funds, a majority of which will be from the state's Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant Program.

The County previously completed phase 1, The Climate Change Vulnerability Analysis , to examine the vulnerability of the urbanized areas of Linda, West Linda, and Olivehurst to climate change. The project areas currently relies upon drainage infrastructure that evolved over time, but was never designed or analyzed to operate as an engineered system. Portions of the project area frequently experience localized flooding due to inadequate drainage; this flooding impacts both transportation corridors and private properties.TimelineRelease Project Date:March 22, 2024Question Submission Deadline:April 5, 2024, 3:00pmQuestion Response Deadline:April 10, 2024, 3:00pmProposal Submission Deadline:April 19, 2024, 3:00pm
