RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Agricultural Commissioner, or designee, to execute an agreement amendment to the California Department of Food and Agriculture ACP Winter Detection Trapping Agreement to extend the terms by two months to June 30, 2021 and to increase the payment by $9,561 to a new total not to exceed $78,422 for reimbursement to the county due to increased insect trapping work.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment will increase the original amount of the agreement by $9,561 for a new total not to exceed $78,422 for the new period of October 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021 for the increase of workload in the county performed on behalf of the California Department of Food and Agriculture. 100% State revenue. There is no county match of funds.

BACKGROUND:

Under the original agreement, the county shall provide services for placing and servicing Asian Citrus Psyllid traps in conjunction with exotic pest detection trapping services. This amendment to the original agreement includes additional delimitation work associated with the detection of one or more life stages of the target pests in the county. Exotic insect pests are considered hazardous to agriculture and the economy of California. Payment will be reimbursed on authorized charges matching the financial plan (salaries, benefits, overhead supplies, vehicle mileage and vehicle leasing costs). These expenditures will be itemized on the monthly invoice with documentation to support the charges. This agreement requires the County to indemnify CDFA for property damages.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

A negative action would result in a loss of revenue to the county and a possible threat to our local agriculture and residents of Contra Costa County.
