EHR Wetland and Riparian Restoration Project - RCDMC. Due date: July 30, 2026. The Resource Conservation District of Monterey County is seeking experienced, qualified contractors to construct a wetland and riparian restoration project. The construction is anticipated to occur between September 1 and October 31, 2026. The project will restore approximately 4.8 acres of wetland by excavation of silted-in material and contouring surface topography for seasonal ponding and a complex riparian habitat. The excavated soils will be distributed onsite over 7.5 acres. All disturbed areas will require erosion control measures including seeding and irrigation to support germination.

Rancho Potrero Prescribed Grazing Project - Conejo Open Space Conservation Agency. Due date: August 21, 2026.  The Conejo Open Space Conservation Agency (COSCA) is soliciting proposals from qualified contractors to design and implement a managed grazing program on an approximately 50-acre parcel of COSCA-owned and managed open space in Thousand Oaks, Ventura County, California. The purpose of the project is to use prescribed livestock grazing as a restoration tool: first to remove accumulated non-native annual grass thatch, and then, over successive seasons, to suppress non-native annual grasses and shift the competitive balance in favor of native perennial bunchgrasses. This is a habitat-restoration grazing project, not a forage or vegetation-management-for-hire arrangement. COSCA seeks a contractor whose grazing operation is oriented toward ecological outcomes and who can demonstrate direct experience applying managed grazing for conservation or habitat-restoration purposes. The successful proposer will be expected to bring both livestock-management expertise and an understanding of California grassland ecology to the project. COSCA has identified the desired ecological outcomes and a set of performance standards and is relying on the proposer to recommend the specific grazing prescription — including animal type, stocking, timing, intensity, confinement method, and adaptive-management approach — that will most reliably achieve those outcomes on this site.  Prospective bidders must be registered with the City of Thousand Oaks prior to downloading solicitation documents and to be eligible to submit a proposal.
