FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, CHIEF ENGINEER
DATE: March' 29, 1988
SUBJECT: Channel Maintenance Agreement - Walnut Creek Channel
(7520-6B9324)
Specific Request(s) or Recommendations) & Background &Justification
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
As the governing body of the Contra Costa County Flood Control
and Water Conservation district, approve soil excavation agreement
for the Walnut Creek Channel maintenance with Double D Transportation
Company, and authorize the Chief Engineer to sign the agreement
on behalf of the District.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The agreement commits the District to pay the Contractor $3 . 30
'- per cubic yard for the removal of between 15, 000 and 100, 000
cubic yards of silt material from the Walnut Creek Channel. The
fund source is Flood Control Zone 3B.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
Informal bids were recently solicited in which the District
agreed to pay to the Contractor the sum of $3 . 30 per cubic yard
of material removed from the project area. The contracted price
of $3 . 30 per cubic yard reflects a $.20 per cubic yard decrease
from last year's contract. Maintenance of the channel requires
that this material be removed and it appears the best price to
the District can be achieved in cases where immediate commitments
and/or long term planning can be made when the material is wanted.
The District contracted for the removal of the material on a
first come, first served basis.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the award is delayed, there is a risk that the silt material
will not be in demand when the District wishes it removed. This
would result in an increased cost to the District.
