The Southeastern Connecticut Council of Governments (SECOG), a Regional Organization, was awarded a Brownfields Assessment Coalition Grant by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the FY 2025 competition. The Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) firm selected for this project will also assist with compliance with all terms and conditions of the Brownfields Assessment cooperative agreement and ensure all deliverables necessary for reporting and record keeping are received. The Coalition Grant is structured around three (3) Geographic Boundaries. Through this RFP solicitation, SECOG is seeking a QEP firm for brownfield identification, site prioritization, preliminary brownfield assessment work, and site reuse planning in the SECOG Geographic Boundary. For the purposes of this grant, the SECOG Geographic Boundary consists of all of the municipalities in the SECOG service area with the exception of the Town of Windham and the Town of Sprague. The tasks identified in this RFP’s Scope of Work reflect only a portion of the work to be completed by SECOG under the EPA Coalition Grant; RFPs for the scopes of work associated with the two other Geographic Boundaries have been issued separately
