Ivag Long Range Transportation Plan Update
Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG)
Submittal Deadline: October 23, 2006

RFP Number: 07-059

ABOUT SCAG
Over the past four decades, the Southern California Association of
Governments (SCAG) has evolved as the largest of nearly 700 councils of
government in the United States, functioning as the Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO) for six counties: Los Angeles, Orange, San
Bernardino, Riverside, Ventura and Imperial.

As the designated MPO, SCAG is mandated by the federal government to
research and put together plans for transportation, growth management,
hazardous waste management, and air quality.

SCAG relies heavily on outside consultants and vendors to help
accomplish the overall mission and objectives of SCAG. We are always
striving to increase the breadth and depth of talent in our pool of
potential consultants and vendors, and are especially interested in
bringing more certified DBEs into the database.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Due to recent heavy growth in population and housing in Imperial County,
California, changing land use patterns and continued increases in the
cross-border movement of goods and people, it is necessary to update the
2002 Imperial County Long Range Transportation Plan for the Imperial
Valley Association of Governments (IVAG).
