SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) a BACIG.ROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I:. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize the Executive Director, Contra Costa County Private
Industry Council, to execute on behalf of the County, standard form
Employment Training Panel (ETP) contract agreement (#19-8108-0) with
Gaylord Container Corporation, for the term beginning November 20,
1989 and ending May 31, 1990 with a maximum payment limit of
$20,848.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None; 100 percent state funds.
I:II. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
On November 17, 1989 the State of California Employment Training
Panel approved a $340,200 agreement with Gaylord Container
Corporation for the retraining of approximately 150 of the existing
Gaylord workforce at its two Antioch facilities. The ETP approval
included having this department act as an administrative agent for
Gaylord to assist in the project.
Gaylord Container manufacturers linerboard for containers and
produces virgin pulp used in the manufacturing of linerboard.
Gaylord Container is investing approximately $120 million in the
upgrading and modernization of two facilities in order to remain
competitive and to keep its only West Coast papermill in operation.
With the installation of the Distributive Control System, both the
bulk virgin pulp production operators and the papermill employees
must receive extensive skills training in the maintenance and
operation of the newly installed computerized and automated
machinery and equipment. Without the retraining, workers and
members of the Associated Western Pulp and Paper Workers, Locals 713
and 850, are likely to be displaced. The president of Local 850 and
the Chairman of Local 713 are participating signees to the ETP
agreement.
