Request for Bid: Brothers Ranch Hydrologic Restoration Project

The Brothers Ranch Hydrologic Restoration Project will correct natural surface and subsurface water dynamics on this historic ranch in Northern Monterey County.  It will do so by building two infiltration basins in what is currently farmland, re-grading the adjacent ephemeral creek and , to be performed separately from this project, restore the floodplain and creek with native plants.  The project will create a more natural mosaic of wet meadow and wet-associated habitats while improving water dynamics throughout the project area.
