inform better decisions and understanding of the impacts of constraints. Regional Stormwater capture projects not only require a thorough understanding of the project site but also need to be understood within the context of the watershed management objectives and TMDL requirements. Projects upstream and downstream of these projects will directly impact the performance of the system and ensuring their inclusion during the concept design analysis will safeguard both project and watershed efficiency. These flow routed, embedded scenarios and designs are unique to our team, pulled from experience in watershed master planning thus leading to a more informed design that considers the larger watershed context. For the City of Los Angeles Stormwater Capture Parks Program, the Tetra Tech team is leading a programmatic watershed analysis of nine (9) projects to ensure efficient capture and place greater emphasis on the top projects through modeling and optimizing all projects simultaneously. PROPOSALFOR On -Call Stormwater Project Design Services RFP N0.20-102 CONSIDERABLE CEQA EXPERIENCE Environmental stewardship must be a key component in the design and implementation of regional stormwater capture projects. The CEQA process and requirements vary significantly from project to project presenting unique challenges in ensuring compliance with all environmental regulations. Additionally, the public comment periods can impact the CEQA process thus lengthening schedules and increasing costs. Our team provides an experienced group who have prepared CEQA documentation on similar types of projects throughout Southern California. Our public outreach and early intervention and collaboration with the public will assist in identifying red flag community issues early in the project design process, providing the City and project design team the opportunity to address the concerns through design or mitigation before the issues become intertwined with the CEQA process thus speeding up the project adoption and compliance with all CEQA concerns. Our team is deeply aware of the CEQA analysis impacts to projects of these magnitudes. Two primary qualities our team takes pride in is our attention to detail and breadth of professional knowledge and experience of staff. The CEQA analysts on our team work very closely with project proponents, CEQA lead agencies, and other regulatory agencies to ensure timely completion of environmental documents and permits even under tight schedules. We know and understand the importance of collaborating between the planning and design teams at the beginning of the project's design life so that environmental impacts and constraints can be taken into consideration early in the planning process.
