Summary of Specifications:
The City of Rochester Hills wishes to obtain proposals from qualified contractor(s) to remediate and manage six (6) identified log jams in the Clinton River in compliance with MDEQ standards. These log jams are identified (Appendix B-Map and Location Coordinates) and described with recommendations for removal (Appendix A), as #3, #4, #18, #19, #21 and #22. All work shall be performed following the guidance of Woody Debris Management 101 and 201 (attached as Appendix D), without collateral damages to the environment and shall conclude with restoration.
The City has obtained the required MDEQ permit (Appendix C) for this project
As access to the river requires encroachment on private property, the City will obtain permission from property owners for ingress and egress. Contractor shall diligently insure that access to the river is accomplished only through the City’s identified routes and in compliance with any restrictions for access. Contractor shall further be responsible for the restoration of all access routes on both private and City property.
Proposers shall submit a work plan to effectively and efficiently remove the identified log jams located in the Clinton River with sensitivity to the surrounding environment. Although the City desires the work to be performed as soon as possible, the water levels are critical and may impact the ability to successfully perform operations on the river.
