WHAT THEY WANT

(Summarized from the RFP)

The City of San Mateo Public Works Department is seeking qualified consulting firms to provide as-needed special inspection and materials testing services for construction projects, and intends to select up to two firms for on-call contracts. The work supports the City's Clean Water Program, created under a Regional Water Quality Control Board cease and desist order to eliminate sanitary sewer overflows and unauthorized discharges by replacing aging infrastructure in the wastewater collection system and the San Mateo/Estero wastewater treatment plant, and it extends to future Public Works sewer infrastructure projects.
