Pre-RFPProfessional ServicesDetected Jun 17, 2026

CCJPA plans to enter two interagency agreements with the California High Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) for National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) lead agency services on the South Bay Connect and Sacramento to Roseville Third Main Track projects. Because both projects will likely seek federal funding, they require NEPA clearance, and CHSRA can act as the delegated federal lead under its NEPA Assignment MOU with FRA. The June 12, 2026 memo anticipates up to $1,000,000 in NEPA processing costs per project (up to $2,000,000 total) to be reimbursed by CCJPA to CHSRA for staff and consultants.Specific scopes, budgets, and schedules will be developed in coordination with CHSRA as project‑specific attachments, and CCJPA has not yet locked in consultant teams under these agreements. Environmental planning, rail engineering, and NEPA documentation firms can prepare to support CHSRA and CCJPA on Environmental Assessments and related studies as project scopes and applications to CHSRA are finalized.

The South Bay Connect CEQA EIR is already certified; NEPA has not started. Sacramento to Roseville Third Track previously had FRA as NEPA lead under a CRISI award that was not ultimately executed.

Contract Admin

The agenda includes a coordinator contract item for the Yellowstone County DUI Task Force. The document does not say whether this is a renewal, extension, or new agreement, but it is a named contract topic tied to task force operations. A vendor should watch for the specific scope, term, and whether the group is retaining or rebidding the coordinator role.

Public Updates

The agenda includes a summary of RFP projects from January-June 2026. The item appears to be a status review rather than a new solicitation, award, or contract action. It can still signal which service areas the task force has been sourcing and whether follow-on work may reappear later in the year.
