The Tulalip Tribes of Washington ("Tribes") are soliciting proposals from qualified firms to conduct and complete two (2) bridge inspections including Quil Ceda Boulevard Bridge (Bid No. 2021-105) and Quil Ceda Parkway Bridge (Bid No. 2021-106) and a load rating for Quil Ceda Boulevard Bridge. It is assumed that the Quil Ceda Boulevard Bridge has not previously been inspected and a load rating has not been done. The Quil Ceda Parkway bridge was previously inspected, and load rating was prepared in 2014. Due to multiple funding sources, award will result in two separate contracts, although qualifications should be included for both projects.

The National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS) mandate that all bridges on public roads be inspected at a minimum of two-year intervals. It is noted that there is no specific inspection requirement for tribally owned bridges. However, for tribally owned bridges to participate in the Indian Reservation Road Bridge Program (IRRBP) and be eligible for Federal funding, a tribally owned bridge must be inspected and placed in the National Bridge Inventory (NBI).

The described tasks must be completed by October 31, 2021.
