WHAT THEY WANT

(Summarized from the RFP)

The City of Chino is seeking a consulting engineering firm to conduct an emergency power study covering eight City-owned potable water facilities and to deliver complete design, permitting, and bid-support services for a new emergency backup generator at the Benson Site (Project No. WA253). The City serves about 86,000 residents and more than 3,600 businesses, and its preliminary 2026 assessment found that a seven-day regional power outage combined with the loss of wholesale water supplies could interrupt water service citywide within about three days.
