The National Municipal Stormwater Alliance (NMSA) is offering limited technical resources to communities who are interested in utilizing the Community-Based Public-Private Partnership (CBP3) program approach to implement large scale green infrastructure at a significant cost savings for reducing stormwater runoff, localized flooding, and making green economic improvements to their communities. These resources will be in the form of expertise and technical support provided through the NMSA CBP3 Center for Water, Energy and Equitable Economic Resilience, led by Dr. Seth Brown, Center Director and Executive Director of NMSA.
This effort will work with interested communities to identify best opportunities and approaches using the CBP3 finance, delivery and O&M platform to address any or all needs as related to cost-effectively executing green stormwater infrastructure, while enabling greater local community economic development, local/small/MBE business development, jobs creation, and other infrastructure needs/goals as well. An output will be as assessment report detailing how the CBP3 program approach could be applied within your community as well as the development of procurement documentation (RFI/RFQ/RFP) that the community can use to release in order to receive input from the private sector via proposals or other documentation outlining specifics on how the CBP3 approach can be used to address the goals outlined in the procurement documents. Deadline for application is February 10, 2021.
