The City of Seattle, through Seattle Public Utilities, is issuing a five‑year on‑call contract for environmental monitoring and consulting services. The contract does not guarantee a minimum workload; individual work assignments will be issued as needed for projects such as stormwater BMP evaluation, urban ecosystem restoration, NPDES permit support, and infrastructure performance assessments. The scope includes review of design documents, development of QA/QC plans, field collection of biological, physical, and chemical samples, data analysis, reporting, and asset‑management support. Contractors must be able to coordinate with state and federal regulators, provide inclusion plans for women‑ and minority‑owned businesses, and possess the capability to deploy and maintain monitoring equipment. The estimated contract value is $2 million over five years, with work defined on a task‑by‑task basis.
