OpportunityTitle: Expansion of Constructed Wetland for Habitat Enhancement
Description: Awarded in 2010, the objective of Cooperative Agreement (CA) N40080-10-LTC-0006 was to design and construct a wetland cell to provide habitat improvement and treatment of storm water from an approximate 162 acre watershed at Naval Support Facility Dahlgren (NSFDL). Calculations for the final design indicate it should achieve 40-50% of the treatment volume for the watershed. Subsequently in 2012, CA N40080-12-LTC-0005 was awarded to provide supplementary survey, design and construction services related to the construction of the first cell, and to design a complementary, second constructed wetland treatment cell. The goal for the second cell design was to fully integrate with and supplement the initial cell to achieve 100% of the recommended treatment volume for the watershed. This Agreement is for the construction of the final design for the second treatment cell to achieve the storm water treatment capacity needed for the watershed. The overall proposed project will provide both habitat enhancements and water quality benefits for a significant amount of untreated storm water. This project implements, in part, Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Washington&#146;s (NAVFAC Wash) responsibilities pursuant to the Sikes Act Improvement Act (16 USC 670 et seq) and is in support of Executive Order 13508 &#150; Chesapeake Bay Protection and Restoration.
