NEPA Study

The Victor Valley Transit Authority (VVTA) seeks a qualified environmental consulting firm to prepare all National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation for a prospective new Victorville Transportation Center. The consultant will develop the project description, conduct resource studies (biological, cultural, hazardous materials, etc.), manage sub‑consultants, facilitate public‑scoping meetings, coordinate with federal, state, and local agencies, and support the preparation of a categorical‑exclusion (CE) package for Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Region 9. The effort is a fixed‑price, 120‑day contract with deliverables that become VVTA’s property. • Prepare full NEPA documentation, including environmental impact studies, CE checklist, and final CE package. • Manage and coordinate specialized sub‑consultants (traffic, biology, cultural resources, mapping, construction‑phase monitoring). • Conduct public outreach (scoping meetings, radius mailings) and agency coordination throughout the study. • Deliver detailed reports, presentations, and support FTA review for CE issuance.
