GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS: Under the proposed Contract, the contractor will be required to provide the following construction services: The Dutch Gap Aquatic Complex, IL - Sec. 206 project spans 785-acres in Antioch, Lake County, Illinois, on land owned by Lake County Forest Preserves. Intensive agriculture has led to the installation of drain tile networks, excavation of drainage ditches, and stream channelization, impacting natural hydrologic and other processes. Such impacts have enhanced flooding risks, minimized the amount of open space available for native plant and wildlife communities, diminished recreational opportunities, and disturbed natural processes and soils in the project area. The project area is further dominated by non-native and invasive plant species. The principal goal of the project is to restore stream, riparian, wetland, and buffering plant communities to provide habitat for migratory birds and local fish and wildlife. Restoration of aquatic ecosystems within the project area will reestablish hydroperiods and other hydrologic and hydraulic parameters to rehydrate former hydric soils to support critical wetland and riparian habitats. It will also reestablish native plant communities that will further diversify over time, resulting in greater quantity (acres) and quality of native plant communities. Estimated Performance Period: 5 years under NAICS 237990 Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction Estimated Cost: Between $5,000,000.00 and $10,000,000.00 All interested Small Businesses, certified HUBZONE, 8(a), Woman-Owned Small Business or Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Business contractors should respond to this market survey/sources sought via email no later than Friday, March 21, 2025, at 3:30 p.m. Central Time.
