RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Agricultural Commissioner, or designee, to accept a contract in an amount not to exceed $962 from the California Department of Food and Agriculture to perform "Pest Exclusion/High Risk Inspections and Enforcement" activities for the period of July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This agreement reimburses the department in an amount not to exceed $962 to support inspection and enforcement activities on behalf of the CA Dept. of Food and Agriculture (CDFA).

BACKGROUND:

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Agreement 17-0031-000SA sets activity levels that are designed for Contra Costa County based on historical workloads, costs on a negotiated work plan to maintain optimal services. This agreement does not cover the entire cost of high-risk activities in the county, but improves the service level in regards to enforcement of quarantines that are designed to keep exotic and invasive pests out of California and Contra Costa County. Under the agreement, the department will perform high-risk parcel inspections at terminals or other facilities per Food and Agriculture Code.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to accept Agreement !7-0031-000SA will mean loss of revenue to the department and increased costs to support the inspections and enforcement activities as mandated by the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA). (No County match)

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

None
