Project Description

The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (“SFPUC”) is issuing this Request for Qualifications (“RFQ”) in search of candidates with the qualifications specified in this RFQ to be qualified to respond to the forthcoming request for bids for HH-1014(E) (“Contract”) to construct the 2023 Storm Damage Emergency Road Repairs (“Project”). A “Candidate” is any entity responding to this RFQ.

The SFPUC issued a Declaration of Emergency on March 22, 2023, for the repair of Hetch Hetchy Water and Power (HHWP) roads due to above-normal precipitation from November 2022 through March 2023, which has significantly impaired the HHWP’s road infrastructure to essential facilities. The objective of the project is to perform emergency repairs to roads, embankments, and drainage facilities for HHWP that were damaged due to recent adverse wet weather events. The work is considered critical and essential to maintaining facilities that HHWP owns and operates. The work generally consists of rock and debris removal, asphalt repair and replacement, embankment stabilization including retaining wall construction, and drainage repairs. The work is physically located in Tuolumne County, along access roads known as Cherry Lake Road and Hetch Hetchy Road. See map under Documents.

Each Candidate must have a Class “A” California Contractor’s license which is current, active, and in good standing with the California Contractors State License Board (“CSLB”), on the date and time the Qualification Application is submitted and must submit this Qualification Application with all portions completed, including required attachments.
