L _ CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize the City Manager and the Clerk of the Council to execute a second amendment to the agreement with Environmental Engineering and Contracting, Inc. for a six-month term in the amount of $90,000 for support services for the City's sewer system fats, oils, and grease control program. DISCUSSION In October 2004, the City adopted an ordinance amending Chapter 39 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code to control the discharge of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from food service establishments to the City's sewer collection system. In January 2005, the City's Public Works Agency began implementation of a comprehensive FOG control program that includes regular inspections of all food service establishments to insure compliance with the ordinance. The FOG ordinance and program are required by the California State Water Quality Control Board. Several years ago staff solicited proposals for support services for the FOG control program from qualified firms. Environmental Engineering and Contracting, Inc. (EEC) was selected based on their qualifications, past experience and capacity to perform the required work. EEC, Inc. continues to provide excellent service to the City in support of the FOG control program. They have extensive experience both as a firm and at the staff level in developing and operating similar programs throughout Southern California. Their fees are reasonable and all of the services are provided on an as-needed basis. 25C-1 Second Amendment to Agreement with Environmental Engineering and Contracting Inc. February 1, 2010 Page 2 EEC provides inspection of new food service establishments (FSEs), training and support of City Sanitation Inspectors, support and maintenance of the FSE database, coordination with other agencies to insure compliance with regulatory requirements, and technical support to City staff for all FOG-related issues. It is recommended that the agreement with EEC, Inc. be amended and extended for a six-month period for a not-to-exceed cost of $90,000 during the six-month term. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT Funds are available in the Sanitary Sewer Service Fund (accounting unit 05617640-62300).
