Award a contract to Associated Power, Inc., for the purchase of trailer

DISCUSSION
On August 16, 2004, the City Council accepted a $15 million Urban Area
Security Initiative grant from the federal Department of Homeland
Security, through the State of California, Office of Homeland Security.
This initiative was designed to enhance the domestic preparedness of urban
areas by ensuring that all emergency first responders have adequate
equipment and systems to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of
terrorism. The grant provides total reimbursement to local agencies for
equipment purchases approved and authorized by the Office of Disaster
Preparedness.
The City of Santa Ana's Emergency Operations Center (EOC) will be activated
in the event of an emergency. The EOC requires a trailer mounted mobile
diesel generator to replace the existing generator which staff has
determined is obsolete and no longer adequate for the current needs of the
EOC. The recommended action will allow for the purchase of a mobile
generator that will meet current needs and enhance the EOC by providing the
Ci ty with the back up power when responding to an emergency, Weapons of
Mass Destruction (WMD) events, or acts of terrorism.
