Request for Proposal

Clear Creek County Noise/Sound Measurements around the new public “Clear Creek Sport Shooting Park”

Dumont, Colorado

PURPOSE

The Clear Creek Board of County Commissioners is seeking a consultant or team with relevant experience and qualifications in conducting sound testing and measurements of the noise levels around a local public shooting range and provide information and a comparison to a 2019 report in a form understandable to the public.

In November of 2018, the County was awarded a Colorado Parks & Wildlife grant to redesign an existing private gun range site for a new public shooting park.

In 2019, the County contracted a sound study to be completed, in order to establish a testing program and protocol to enable sound/noise testing to be replicated after construction of the new public range.

The new public shooting range is now open and the County seeks to retain a noise/sound testing/measurement consultant to replicate the 2019 “Clear Creek County Shooting Range Ambient Sound Study” sound study program for comparison of baseline sound levels at and near the subject site in a variety of weather conditions, times of day, days of the week, and during special shooting events.

The purpose of this Request-for-Proposal is to identify and select a qualified consultant to conduct testing and characterize noise levels relative to surrounding conditions and the previous report.  It will include numerical standards along with segments measuring the noise levels of the new range.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The new shooting range is located at 3204 Stanley Road, Dumont, Colorado and is approximately 5 acres in size.  It is managed and operated by the Clear Creek Metropolitan Recreation Center. Clear Creek runs north of the property adjacent to I-70.  The site is bounded at its rear (south) by additional County and private lands.

This project will utilize the previously 2019 protocol to establish current conditions and compare the sound/noise levels in the area.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

  1. Utilize the testing program and protocol established in the 2019 “Clear Creek County Shooting Range Ambient Sound Study” to replicate sound/noise testing as closely as possible. (Exhibit A)
  2. Sound/noise testing/measurement at the subject site location as well as the six other sites for 10 days;
  3. Sound/noise testing/measurement in various weather conditions—e.g. windy vs. calm conditions;
  4. Sound/noise testing/measurement at different times of day;
  5. Sound/noise testing/measurement during at least one special event at the shooting range and during no shooting activity;
  6. Sound/noise testing/measurement via an announced date/time to invite County staff, Rec District staff, and members of the public for observation;
  7. Sound/noise testing/measurement in decibels with other familiar noise comparisons to provide information about noise levels in a form understandable to the public;
  8. Sound/noise testing/measurement with explanation of how the sound measurement is taken with examples of utilized technology;
  9. Full report with findings and summary of the comparison of the 2019 Study due by November 2, 2026.
  10. Bid package;
  11. Project administration.
  12. Cost Proposal.
