Summary:

A Request for Qualification Statements (RQS) for the subject project was advertised and issued on June 15, 2015, and remained open for responses for a period of 45 days.  Carollo Engineers, Inc., was the only firm to respond, and Wastewater Division recommends moving forward as it is expected that a re-solicitation would not produce additional results.
