On June 7, 1983, the Board, sitting in its capacity as the
governing body of the Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conser-
vation District, authorized the Chief Engineer to execute cost-sharing
agreements with property owners for repair of storm damage. The agreements
required that the property owners engage a soils engineer to design the
creek repair project and to inspect the construction work. -
On June 23, 1983, the Board entered into an agreement with the
Soil Conservation Service, United States Department of Agriculture, for
repair of storm damage. The agreement requires that the District be
liable to the Service in the amount of $130 per day for every calendar day
that completion of the construction work is delayed beyond the construction
contract time.
The Chief Engineer has reported that the contract with Precision
Seeding of Newcastle, for repair of the storm damage requires the contractor
to pay $250 per day for every calendar day that completion of the construc-
tion work was completed 123 days beyond the contract time, that the delay
resulted in increased inspection costs to the property owners, and that
their increase .in inspection costs were approximately four times those of
the District.
The Chief Engineer has recommended that the liquidated damages
remaining after the District's liability to the Service is complete be
split 80% ($11,808.00) to the property owners and 20% ($2,952.00) to the
District to cover extra inspection costs.
IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that the recommendation of the Chief
Engineer is APPROVED.
