BACKGROUND:

The Chief Engineer, Flood Control and Water Conservation District, or designee, executed a Contract dated June 06, 2017, with Amec Foster Wheeler Environment & Infrastructure, Inc., for stormwater-related technical services.

Proposed Amendment No. 1 will delete and replace the contractor’s name from Amec Foster Wheeler Environment & Infrastructure, Inc., to Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions, Inc., and amend the stated Legal Authority to Deering's Cal Uncod. Water Deer, Act 170, Section 5, with no change to original Term or Payment Limit.

If this Contract Amendment Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions, Inc. is not approved, the Contra Costa Clean Water Program would not be able to fulfill the permit mandates, and municipalities could be found in non-compliance with the NPDES permits issued by the Regional Water Boards. Fines totaling $10,000 per day and $10 per gallon of stormwater discharged could potentially be imposed.
