PROPOSALFOR RFP NO.: 23-030 ALBION RIVERSIDE PARK, Los Angeles, CA Tetra Tech provided pre -design, design, and construction support services for the Albion Riverside Park Project, located adjacent to the Los Angeles River. The project involved transforming a six -acre site, previously used for dairy warehousing and distribution, into a riverfront park and recreational facility that benefits nearby disadvantaged low-income neighborhoods. This important water quality project is part of the City's overall efforts through the Proposition O Bond Program to improve water quality and reduce pollutant loads that are currently being conveyed to the rivers, lakes, and oceans within the greater Los Angeles area. The overall project objective was to develop the project site and implement Low Impact Development (LID), Green Infrastructure, and Best Management Practice (BMP) measures to improve the water quality of stormwater prior to discharging into the Los Angeles River and ultimately into the Pacific Ocean. In addition to collecting, treating and infiltrating on -site runoff, the project diverts stormwater and dry weather flows from an existing storm drain. The diverted flows are then treated and infiltrated, or used within the park. The BMPs installed included bioretention facilities, bioswales, and pervious pavement subsurface infiltration areas. The remainder of the park was developed for recreational uses, educational purposes, and improved access along the river. Recreational amenities at the site included multi purpose athletic fields, walking paths, adult fitness zones, children's play area, picnic area, a new parking lot with permeable paving, site landscaping and a plaza.
