RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with The Watershed Project, to extend the term through October 30, 2024, to provide on-call technical assistance and support to meet Contra Costa County’s obligations under current Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit No. CAS612008 (MRP) under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Program, with no change to the payment limit, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact with this action, as it is only to extend the term of the contract. This project, including the contract, will be funded 100% by Stormwater Utility Assessment Funds.

BACKGROUND:

This contract amendment is for The Watershed Project to continue to provide on-call services in the form of technical assistance and support to meet Contra Costa County’s obligations under the current MRP under the NPDES Program. Public Works staff, on behalf of the County, will contact the contractor as necessary to identify the task and determine the cost and schedule.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without the approval of this contract by the Board of Supervisors, the County will be unable to meet its obligations under the current MRP under the NPDES Program and be subject to fines and other penalties from the state of California.
