FILE NUMBER
Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute the
attached amendment to the agreement with United Stormwater, Inc. in the
amount of $75,000 for the not to exceed amount of $112,500, subject to
non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The California Regional Water Quality Control Board enforces the Federal
NPDES Stormwater Permit that regulates pollution from entering into the
waters of the United States. Compliance with this NPDES permit and the
Federal Clean Water Act requires the cleaning of all city-owned drainage
facilities that lead to the waters of the United States.
United Stormwater, Inc. of City of Industry currently provides contract
cleaning services to the City. They were selected as the top rated firm
during a 2005 selection process from among four firms.
United Stormwater, Inc. has provided exceptional service to the City.
They have provided rapid response and thorough cleaning of blocked catch
basins. United Stormwater, Inc. has assisted the City in meeting all
required State and Federal Stormwater requirements. They respond to
routine and special requests for cleaning in a timely manner.
Due to the high occurrence of Santa Ana winds and recent rain, large
amounts of debris has accumulated and blocked City drainage facilities.
As a result the Public Works Agency has utilized United Stormwater's
services more than anticipated. The Public Works Agency is therefore
requesting authorization to amend the contract in the amount of $75,000
to allow United Stormwater to continue to provide catch basin cleaning
services through the 2007/08 fiscal year.
