DATE: October 14, 1997
SUBJECT: Approve First Amendment to Consulting Services Agreement for Industrial Hygiene Services for
Miscellaneous Building Projects.
SPECIFIC REQUESTS OR RECOMMENDATION(S)8 BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
1. RECOMMENDATION
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Director of General Services, or designee, to execute the First Amendment to the
Consulting Services Agreement effective October 1, 1997, authorizing an increase in the payment limit from
$25,000.00 to $50,000.00 for the consulting services agreement dated June 2, 1997, with Clayton Environmental
Consultants, Inc. for industrial hygiene services for miscellaneous county buildings and the development of operations
and maintenance procedures.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funding for these services are budgeted for the fiscal year 1997/98. This work is required to be done by federal and
state regulations and for the health and safety of building occupants and members of the public. Having an on-site
consultant reduces the per hour cost of these services significantly, as the hourly rate charged per this agreement is
$45.00. Otherwise, the cost for testing is $60.00 per hour or more, depending on the services requested.
III. BACKGROUND
Clayton Environmental Consultants have been providing various asbestos consulting services to the Architectural
and Building Maintenance Divisions of General Services for over six years. This consulting agreement continues that
work and incorporates the development of an operations and maintenance policy, including procedures. By having
a consultant on-site, work requests for customer departments which require asbestos testing can be expedited. The
cost for an on-site consultant is$45.00 per hour, which is significantly less that the $60.00 which would be charged.
The Department anticipates that a significant amount of building testing and the development of procedures can be
accomplished under this agreement.
