AI Summary
Boulder County seeks proposals for Low Tech Process-based Restoration projects to enhance beaver habitat and watershed resilience on private lands. Projects include construction of beaver dam analogs and potential beaver reintroductions, with strong stakeholder engagement and coordination with county agencies. Proposals due by Feb 9, 2026.
Boulder County is requesting proposals from local governments, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), consultants, and other private businesses (collectively “Organizations”) to implement Low Tech Process-based Restoration (LTPBR) projects (“Projects”). These Projects are to be primarily on private lands within Boulder County with the goal of increasing the climate resilience of watersheds and increasing their ability to support beaver populations. These Projects will be planned and implemented in close coordination with staff from Boulder County Office of Sustainability, Climate Action & Resilience (OSCAR) and Parks & Open Space (BCPOS), and other non-Boulder County government agencies involved in beaver management, stream restoration, permitting, or other relevant work as necessary. The awarded Organization must include stakeholder engagement to implement Projects and must ensure nearby property owners are aware of potential impacts to their property. The majority of awarded funds will be allocated to construction and implementation of beaver dam analogs (BDAs), post assisted log structures (PALS) and other LTPBR structures that approximate the benefits of beaver activity, create suitable habitat for beaver enticement, or both. Beaver reintroductions may be included in the proposed scope, but any proposed reintroductions must consider habitat and vegetation conditions, nearby beaver populations, and include mitigation measures for potential conflicts with humans and infrastructure. Funding may be allocated for Organization staff time associated with planning, beaver conflict management, and program management, but responses must clearly state how funding will be allocated and should emphasize Project implementation. A successful proposal will demonstrate that the responding Organization has the capacity, expertise, and relationships to successfully perform the proposed work.
