BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the California Quality Act (CEQA), the Clean Water Act, the
Porter-Cologne Water Act, and the State and Federal Endangered Species Acts.
On April 5, 2012, the Contra Costa County (County) Public Works Department entered into a standard contract
with LSA Associates, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $205,831.56 for environmental professional services for
the Project.
On October 22, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract Amendment No. 1, effective October 23,
2013, which added a second payment method (Specific Rate of Compensation) and increased the contract amount
by $47,726.44 from $205,831.56 to $253,558 for additional necessary work for the Project.
On March 31, 2015, the Board of Supervisors approved Contact Amendment No. 2, effective March 31, 2015 to
extend the contract term to December 31, 2015.
Due to unexpected delays, the contract term needs to be extended to December 31, 2016 to complete work
associated with the Project.
All other terms and conditions of the original Contract, Contract Amendment No. 1, Contract Amendment No. 2,
and this amendment between the County and the Contractor shall remain in full force and effect.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the amendment is not approved, the remaining work will not be completed to obtain necessary environmental
clearances which may jeopardize funding and cause delays with construction.
