1. Request for Proposal for Engineering & Designs for Confluence of Conservation Restoration Project (Due January 6, 2025 at 4:00PM):
CoqWA intends to contract the design and permitting for improved hydrologic flows into and out of an approximately 1-acre wetland located within a cattle pasture adjacent to the North Fork Coquille River (NFCR) near the city of Myrtle Point, OR (“Site”). The Site includes an access road with one culvert and is flanked by a County road, Weekly Creek Rd. Water flowing from the uplands on one side of the County road drains into the pasture through five culverts. This proposal will be to develop designs for the project area to enhance approximately 1-acre of wetland habitat for overwintering juvenile salmonids, improve the flow of water from the adjacent uplands into a pond/wetland, and create fish passage out of the pond/wetland and into the mainstem river. Bidders shall familiarize themselves with the following three RFP documents:

2. Request for Bids for the Middle Fork Coquille River Falls Fish Passage Project (Due January 31, 2025 at 4:00PM):
CoqWA intends to contract for the construction to reestablish fish passage and maximize natural river processes at falls on the Middle Fork Coquille River (MFCR) near Bear Creek Frontage Road in Douglas County, Oregon. Fish passage is currently hindered by large boulders in the channel, caused by disturbance and alteration during historic road-building activities. Construction, supported by engineering designs and a contracted engineer, will follow two objectives: 1) Perform site modifications necessary to provide equipment access to the MFCR channel, which include, but are not limited to, construction of a temporary road crossing and construction of a temporary channel access lane, and 2) Modify approximately 200 feet of the MFCR channel to a target gradient of ±5% during the in-water work period from July 1, 2025 to September 15, 2025. In-water channel work will include reducing, relocating, and/or removing existing selected boulders, as well as placing streambed matrix.
