On February 10, 2026, by Resolution 2026-36, an additional agreement was established between the City and YCCD for the use of the Congressionally Funded Community Projects (CFCP) grant fund, award #P116Z230339. This Addendum will allow for this award to be utilized for the funding of the Paramedic Program.

DISCUSSION:

The purpose of this Addendum to the MOU (Addendum) is to extend the scope of work within the MOU between YCCD and the City for the use of the Congressionally Funded Community Projects (CFCP) grant fund, award #P116Z230339, in the joint effort to expand the collaboration related to the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) educational programs.

This Addendum formalizes this funding mechanism, ensuring compliance with grant requirements while strengthening the existing training collaboration. The Addendum outlines that MFD will provide qualified instruction aligned with current operational standards, enhancing the quality of training for students entering the emergency services field. It is within the Addendum that MFD shall provide a qualified SME to provide technical assistance and professional guidance related to curriculum and accreditation preparation, among other services for a term from February 24, 2026, through May 31, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval of this Memorandum of Understanding by the City Modesto and YCCD, YCCD shall reimburse the City up to $45,000, from the Congressionally Funded Community Projects (CFCP) grant award #P116Z230339, billable from February 24, 2026, to May 31, 2026, for expenses incurred for actual personnel costs, including salary and benefits, associated with the staff’s assigned time, pursuant to invoicing procedures outlined in the MOU. The reimbursement amount is based on labor distribution for the pay periods of work being performed. Costs for these expenses are budgeted for and available within the General Fund and may be fully reimbursed once fully executed, essentially eliminating the fiscal impact to the City. The City of Modesto will submit to YCCD an invoice for the amount with the itemized record or receipts of goods and services for reimbursement as outlined in the MOU.

April 17, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Patrick Crowley, Interim Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Resolution of Intent to Consider Franchise Agreements with Gilton and Bertolotti for Solid Waste Collection Services
CONTACT: Jody Strait, Interim Solid Waste Supervisor, [email protected], 209-577-6416
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Resolution of Intent to consider Franchise Agreements with Gilton Solid Waste and Bertolotti Modesto Disposal for Solid Waste Collection Services, and setting a public hearing on June 9, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. (Funding Source: Not Applicable)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The recommended action is in conformance with City of Modesto 2025-2026 Strategic Plan Element: “Quality of Life”, Goal D: “Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance, and sustainability efforts”; Strategy No. Six: “Divert waste from the landfill”.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Modesto has contracts with two (2) private sector companies to collect residential, commercial, and industrial garbage, organics, and recyclables, Gilton Solid Waste Management, Inc. (Gilton) and Bertolotti Modesto Disposal, Inc. (Bertolotti), collectively referred to as the Haulers.

On January 14, 1997, by Resolution No. 1997-36, Council approved the 1997 Service Agreement between the City of Modesto and Gilton Solid Waste Management, Inc. On July 24, 2001, by Resolution No. 2001-394, and on November 8, 2006, by Resolution No. 2006-708, Council approved amendments to the 1997 Service Agreement. The #17..

Resolution of Intent to Consider Franchise Agreements with Gilton and Bertolotti for Solid Waste Collection

amended 1997 Service Agreement with Gilton has a 10-year term with an automatic renewal (evergreen) clause and is currently in effect.

On September 18, 2001, by Resolution No. 2001-465, Council approved the 2001 Service Agreement between the City of Modesto and Bertolotti. On December 4, 2007, by Resolution No. 2007-717, Council approved an amendment to the 2001 Service Agreement. The amended 2001 Service Agreement with Bertolotti has a seven-year evergreen clause that is currently in effect.

On June 27, 2023, by Resolution No. 2023-314, Council approved an agreement with HF&H Consultants, LLC. (HF&H), to conduct an audit and performance review of the City’s two (2) solid waste haulers. The performance review included analyzing the current rate setting methodology and testing it for validity, as well as developing a new rate setting methodology.

On August 13, 2024, by Resolution No. 2024-293, Council approved the final report and recommendations of HF&H, which provided City staff with next steps for rate methodology development and hauler service agreement review.

On August 13, 2024, by Resolution No. 2024-289, Council approved the first amendment for HF&H to begin Phase Two to include the negotiations to amend the hauler service agreements. Service agreement negotiations between the City and the haulers began January 2025.

On December 17, 2025, the Finance Committee was presented with a draft restated Service Agreement with Bertolotti. The item did not include a draft restated agreement with Gilton due to lack of agreement between the City and Gilton on key provisions.

The Finance Committee recommended forwarding Bertolotti’s agreement to the Council for approval on a 2/1 vote and forwarding staff’s proposal to terminate Gilton’s current agreement to Council on a 3/0 vote. In the interest of preserving the City’s longstanding partnership with Gilton and ensuring continuity in service for ratepayers, the City and Gilton reopened negotiations in January 2026 and successfully negotiated the attached draft agreement.

DISCUSSION:

City staff value the consistency and reliability of the essential services provided by the Haulers to City of Modesto ratepayers. However, the Haulers have not been required to participate in service agreement negotiations in nearly two decades, leaving the current agreements lacking financial and operational protections for the City that are standard in other jurisdictions. For example, the current agreements do not substantially comply with state law, including 14 CCR 18981.2(a) which requires that a “jurisdiction shall adopt enforceable ordinance(s), or similarly enforceable mechanisms that are consistent with the requirements of this chapter, to mandate that organic waste generators, Haulers, and other entities subject to the requirements of this chapter that #17..

are subject to the jurisdiction’s authority comply with the requirements of this chapter.” Several of the regulatory requirements delegated to the Haulers are not sufficiently documented within the current service agreements. Both Agreements include an evergreen clause which is no longer the industry standard for similar agreements in the region and statewide.

The proposed restated service agreements will increase the level of accountability, transparency, and protection provided to the City and ratepayers. Updates to the agreements include revisions to insurance requirements, performance bond amounts, reporting requirements, financial audit requirements, termination protocols, and clearly defined liquidated damages. Language has been added for local purchasing preferences, event participation, and multi-family bulky item collection. State mandates related to recycling and organic waste collection have been added, along with associated risk mitigation clauses.

The proposed term length is a fixed term of 10 years with a mutual option to extend for up to four additional five-year terms. The mutual option to extend applies to each extension. The decision for the first extension shall be made prior to the end of year six of the original term. The existing evergreen clause has been removed in favor of the fixed term agreement. A fixed term agreement is intended to incentivize efficient service, transparency, and accountability for ratepayers.

A new rate methodology has been developed by HF&H. The new methodology will remove some fee components to avoid double-compensation and align annual cost adjustments with indices to stabilize future rate changes. Additional details of the restated service agreements will be provided at the time of the public hearing.

Per MMC 5-5.136, Council shall pass a resolution declaring its intention to consider a proposal to enter into a franchise agreement, setting forth notice of the day, hour and place, when and where any and all persons may appear before the Council. The time fixed for such hearing shall be not less than 10 days nor more than 30 days after the passage of said resolution. This resolution of intent will set the public hearing on June 9, 2026, at 5:30 p.m., at 1010 Tenth Street, Modesto, California, in Council Chambers.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Due to the administrative nature of this item, there is no fiscal impact related to this action.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

Because this item is informational in nature to the City Council, this item is not required to be reviewed by Council Committee.

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

May 12, 2026
Date: April 07, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: William Wong and Director of Utilities
SUBJECT: Rock Well Rejuvenation Services
CONTACT: Jeff Daniels, Wastewater Division Manager, [email protected], 209-577-6255
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Agreement for Rock Well Rejuvenation Services to Fox Loomis, Inc., Sacramento, CA, for a total amount not to exceed $2,871,991 over five (5) years. (Funding Source: Storm Drain Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The recommended action supports the City’s 2025-2026 Strategic Plan Initiatives:
“Quality of Life”, Goal D: “Provide safe, efficient and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance and sustainability efforts.” BACKGROUND:

The City of Modesto’s stormwater collection system contains approximately 9,600 rock wells. Rock wells function to effectively drain surface water from streets during storm events over a twenty-four-hour period.

Over time, rock wells can become less effective due to the accumulation of debris and fine dirt. When this occurs, the rock well must be rejuvenated or replaced, prompting the need for rock well rejuvenation services.

On October 13, 2020, by Resolution No. 2020-423, Council approved an agreement with Fox Loomis for Rock Well Rejuvenation Services for a total amount not to exceed $3,000,000 over five (5) years.

On June 23, 2025, the City Manager authorized an extension to the contract with no additional costs, to go into effect on October 13, 2025, and expire on June 30, 2026. #18..

Rock Well Rejuvenation Services

Page 2 of 4 ends

The current rock well rejuvenation agreement will expire on June 30, 2026. Wastewater is requesting the award of a new agreement in order to continue services.

DISCUSSION:

The Wastewater Division is responsible for planning the installation of new rock wells and the repair and maintenance of existing rock wells throughout the City of Modesto.

Rock wells are essential in the mitigation of flooding during storm events. As rock wells lose their ability to effectively drain surface water, staff rely on contractual services to perform complete rejuvenations of these structures.

The Utilities Department, Wastewater Division, requires a Contractor to provide Rock Well Rejuvenation services, as needed.

On May 27, 2025, the City Manager authorized the Purchasing Manager to solicit procurement for Rock Well Rejuvenation Services. On November 18, 2025, the Wastewater Division issued Invitation for Bids (IFB) 2425-51 for the furnishing of Rock Well Rejuvenation Services on the City’s OpenGov public bidding website under various commodity codes1. 4,211 prospective bidders were notified online which included 45 local vendors. 34 companies downloaded the IFB document from OpenGov and five (5) were local vendors.

On December 16, 2025, bids were formally opened in the City Clerk’s office and broadcast via Microsoft Teams Livestream. Two (2) chose to respond, there was one (1) local bid received. Based on proving the lowest responsive and responsible bid, City Staff recommended to award the furnishing of Rock Well Rejuvenation to Fox Loomis, Inc., Sacramento, CA, for a (2) two-year agreement with (3) three one-year extension options for an estimated annual amount of $574,398, for a total amount not to exceed $2,871,991, over five (5) years.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to follow the formal bid procedures. An Award of Bid and Agreement for Rock Well Rejuvenation services for Utilities Department use to Fox Loomis, Inc., Sacramento, CA, conforms to the Modesto Municipal Code because the City complied with the formal bid procedures and Fox Loomis, Inc. was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The anticipated annual cost of $574,398 has been budgeted within the Storm Drain Fund (4480), Storm Collections (44222) Fiscal Year 2026-27 operating budget. 1 91223 Construction, General (Backfill Services, Digging, Ditching, Road Grading, Rock Stabilization, etc.), 91244 Excavation Services, 96296 Well Services (Including Oil, Gas, and Water): Drilling, Plugging, Consulting, Maintenance, Repair, etc.

City staff project annual increases based on this estimated forecast. Annual increases will be calculated using the current CPI index at the time of the requested increase.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

May 12, 2026
Date: April 07, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: William Wong, Director of Utilities
SUBJECT: Sewer Root Control Services Agreement
CONTACT: Jeff Daniels, Wastewater Division Manager, [email protected], 209-577-6255
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Agreement for Sewer Root Control Services to Duke’s Root Control, Inc., Syracuse, NY, for a total amount not to exceed $747,601 over five (5) years. (Funding Source: Sewer Operations Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The City of Modesto is known for its award-winning urban forest. However, these trees can create challenges within the sewer collection system. As tree roots enter the sewer system pipes through cracks and joints, they create blockages and impede normal system flows. This often results in a sanitary sewer spill (SSS). In addition, damage to the pipes leads to significant repair costs and the risk of hefty fines from the State and exposure to lawsuits from Environmental groups in the event an SSS occurs.

Chemical root control is the most efficient and effective method of managing root intrusion in the sewer pipes due to it requiring less time, labor, and equipment while not adversely affecting the trees.

On July 06, 2021, by Resolution No. 2021-266, Council approved an Agreement with Duke’s Root Control, Inc. for the provision of sewer root control services for a total amount not to exceed $329,395 over five (5) years.

Sewer Root Control Services Agreement

Page 2 of 4 ends

On April 09, 2024, by Resolution No. 2024-122, Council approved an Amendment to the Agreement with Duke’s Root Control, Inc., increasing the agreement amount for a new total amount not to exceed $551,758 over five (5) years.

With the current sewer root control services agreement due to expire on July 06, 2026, Wastewater requires the award of a new Agreement.

DISCUSSION:

The Wastewater Division is responsible for maintaining all components of the City’s sewer collection system. The removal of roots within the sewer collection system requires ongoing treatment. Sewer lines are treated on a rotating three-year cycle and tracked through a preventative maintenance schedule.

In order to continue remediating the intrusion of roots into the City’s sewer lines, the Wastewater Division requires continued services for chemical root control.

On August 18, 2025, the City Manager authorized the Purchasing Manager to solicit the procurement for Sewer Root Control Services. On November 4, 2025, the Purchasing Division issued Invitation for Bids (IFB)-00044 for the furnishing of Sewer Root Control Services on the City’s OpenGov public bidding website under various commodity codes1. 4,233 prospective bidders were notified online, which included 44 local vendors. 23 companies downloaded the IFB documents from OpenGov and one (1) was a local vendor.

On December 2, 2025, bids were formally opened in the City Clerk’s office and broadcast via Microsoft Teams Livestreams. Two (2) chose to respond and there were no local bids received. Based on providing the lowest responsive and responsible bid, City staff recommended to award the furnishing of Sewer Root Control Services to Duke’s Root Control Inc., Syracuse, NY, for a (2) two-year agreement with (3) three one-year extension options for an estimated annual amount of $150,231, for a total amount not to exceed $751,157 over five (5) years.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchased, which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to follow the formal bid procedures. An Award of Bid and Agreement for Sewer Root Control services for Utilities Department use to Duke’s Root Control, Inc., Syracuse, NY, conforms to the Modesto Municipal Code because the City complied with the formal bid procedures and Duke’s Root Control, Inc. was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. 1 92642 Environmental Services, 96896 Water and Wastewater Treatment Services #19..

FISCAL IMPACT:

The anticipated annual cost of $149,521 will be absorbed within the current Sewer Operations Fund (4210), Sewer Collections (44211) Fiscal Year 2026-27 operating budget.

An increase in the anticipated expenditure was identified between the new Agreement and the current Agreement. This is due to the most recent bid submittal increasing the cost of services by 48% when compared to the bid submittal received for the current Agreement.

The overall agreement total was calculated by forecasting Consumer Price Index (CPI) percentage increases based on an average of the CPI over the last twelve (12) months.

City staff project annual increases based on this estimated forecast. Annual increases will be calculated using the current CPI at the time of requested increase.

• Applicator’s California Department of Pesticide Regulation Certification number • United States Department of Transportation number

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
A. A chemical root control agent designated specifically to control sewer line tree root intrusion shall be applied to sanitary sewers. The purpose of the application is to kill the root growth present in the lines and to inhibit root re-growth, without permanently damaging the vegetation producing the roots and without disrupting wastewater treatment plant processes. The chemical product shall contain an herbicide to destroy root tissue, an herbicide to deter growth, and a foaming surfactant to deliver the herbicides to target the roots growth. The chemical shall be currently registered with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (CDPR). The chemical shall be labeled for use in sewers to control tree roots.

B. The Chemical shall be applied as foam to sewers in strict accordance with the manner of application set forth in these specifications. The foam shall be pumped under sufficient pressure to assure that the entire sewer section is completely filled with foam and ensure that the foam passed through lateral pipe connections to a distance of 10 to 15 feet up service laterals.

C. The treatment shall not have any adverse effect on wastewater treatment plants and/or receiving waters downstream from the applications. The Contractor shall be required to take all necessary steps to prevent said adverse effects, at Contractor’s expense. The Contractor attests, through submittal of a bid that the Contractor #19..

SEWER ROOT CONTROL SERVICES
27 is expert in this type of work and recognizes and understands the risks posed by this type of work on wastewater treatment plant processes. The Contractor shall not rely on the City for guidance in this regard.

The Contractor shall notify the Wastewater Treatment Plant Manager if the wastewater treatment facility may be affected by the Contractor’s performance of the contract on Monday of each week, of the date and time of all intended work, and provide the treatment plant with the data or information requested by the Manager, including specimen product labels and SDS for any materials introduced to the collection system prior to any commencement of work.

The Contractor shall provide the Wastewater Treatment Plant Manager with the names and phone numbers of the individuals in a position to notify the Contractor’s crews of the need to immediately stop work, including all local phone numbers of the Contractor’s on-site supervisor. The Contractor shall maintain daily communications with the Wastewater Treatment Plant Manager to assure that the chemical root control treatments are not having any adverse effects on wastewater treatment plant processes. In the event that a wastewater treatment plant experiences any reduction in operating efficiency during the execution of the contract, whether the result of the chemical treatments or not, the Contractor shall immediately suspend all applications, and notify the City. The Contractor shall continue operations only after problems at the wastewater treatment plant have been corrected, and the Contractor has taken appropriate steps, satisfactory to the City and the Wastewater Treatment Plant Manager, to prevent recurrence of any problems at the wastewater treatment plant that may be the result of chemical applications.

The Contractor shall be financially responsible for any adverse effects on wastewater treatment plant processes which are, directly or indirectly, caused by the chemical application, including but not limited to the following: damages to plant processes or equipment, clean-up and restoration costs, fines imposed on the City or on the operator of the wastewater treatment plant by State or Federal agencies, pollution of receiving water, and civil suits. The Contractor shall further indemnify and hold harmless the City and the operator of the wastewater treatment plant, against all costs, including legal expenses, relating to treatment plant failure or other damages or pollution caused, directly or indirectly, by the applications of chemicals by the Contractor.

D. The Contractor shall at no time permit sewer line root control materials to be applied or disposed of in such a manner as to allow the material to runoff or drift into any storm drainage system, including, but not limited to: streets, gutters, storm drain catch basins, Rockwells, drainage channels, receiving waters, or any other body of water. All City contractors shall abide by the City of Modesto Landscape Management Plan – Pesticides and Fertilizer Application in all aspects of sewer line root control material usage, including storage, transportation, application, disposal, equipment maintenance, and accident & spill mitigation.

E. All work performed shall be supervised by a licensed Applicator, certified by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation. The use of subcontractors shall not be permitted.

CHEMICAL COMPOSITION
The chemical root control agent shall contain:

A. (anhydrous) Sodium Methyldithiocarbamate (Metam-Sodium), an active component for destroying roots in sanitary sewer lines; and 2,6-Dichlorobenzonitrile (Dichlobenil) formulated as a wettable powder, as an active ingredient for inhibiting re-growth, or;
#19..
- 829 -
INVITATION FOR BIDS # IFB-00044

SEWER ROOT CONTROL SERVICES
28 B. Diquat, an active component for destroying roots and inhibiting root growth in sanitary sewer lines; C. In addition to a) or b) listed above, a foaming surfactant system designed to deliver the herbicidal agents to the root tissue, and to cut through the grease and debris typically found on sewer roots.

The chemical root control agent shall be registered with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (CDPR). Chemicals designed to be poured down, or blown in the pipe, as a dust shall not be accepted. A specimen product label(s) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) shall be submitted with the bid.

INERT INGREDIENTS
The root control material shall be formulated with foaming agents and surfactant sufficient to produce a stable, small bubble, dense foam capable of sustaining its shape and thus remaining on the treated roots for approximately thirty (30) minutes. The foaming surfactant shall strip grease that typically clings to the City’s sewer root masses. The foaming agents shall be formulated such that one part of the mixed material will convert into twenty (20) parts foam.

ROOT KILLING AGENT
The active component for destroying intruding roots in sanitary sewer lines shall be a potent, non-systemic toxin which kills contacted roots at low concentrations, but which will not permanently affect parts of the plant distant from the treated roots. Natural chemical or biochemical processes must spontaneously detoxify the active ingredient in a relatively short interval following its use. The active ingredient for destroying root intrusions shall be Sodium Methyldithiocarbamate or Diquat.

ROOT RE-GROWTH INHIBITOR
The active ingredient for inhibiting re-growth of root intrusions in sanitary sewer lines shall inhibit root cell growth on contact but shall not be transported as to damage other portions of the parent plant. The material shall bind firmly to the soil in the vicinity of openings in pipe joints so as to form a persistent chemical barrier suppressing the growth of root tips. The material shall be sufficiently stable under the conditions of use to provide protection for twelve (12) months or longer but shall be subject to decomposition in the Wastewater Treatment plants without disturbing the treatment plant processes. The root growth-inhibiting agent shall be 2, 6- Dichlorobenzonitrile (Dichlobenil) or Diquat.

The chemical root control agent shall be registered with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and California Department of Pesticide Regulation (CDPR) and shall be labeled for use in sewers to control tree roots. Only materials whose label instructions conform to these specifications shall be accepted.

All application procedures must be in strict conformance with these specifications and label instructions. Use of any root control herbicide in a manner inconsistent with labeled instructions is a violation of Federal law.

The active ingredient shall not adversely affect the performance of the Wastewater Treatment plant when applied properly in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations.

Compounds containing copper and/or other known priority pollutants, as defined by the Federal EPA, shall be disallowed.

29 APPLICATION
Application of the chemical root control agent shall be by foaming in accordance with the best recommended practice for conditions present in the sewer line under treatment. All foaming procedures shall be in strict accordance with the instruction on the container label. A foam discharge hose shall be inserted throughout the entire length of the sewer section to be treated. Equipment used shall discharge foam at an adequate discharge pressure to force foam up connecting lateral sewers, approximately 10 – 15 feet, in small diameter pipe. Hose retrieval rates must be timed to evenly distribute the full quantity of foam throughout the entire area of treatment.

Sewer service to homeowners/businesses shall not be interrupted. The Contractor must be aware of excessive discharge pressure, and/or excessive quantities of material may cause foam to enter dwellings or travel up clean-outs onto lawns. The Contractor shall make every effort to prevent this from occurring. Materials that are labeled to be poured down maintenance holes or sprayed on to roots shall not be accepted. The Contractor is responsible for clean-up of foam escaping from the sewer system.

EQUIPMENT
The equipment used in foam generation shall meet the herbicide manufacturer’s specifications and be capable of generating the specified quantity and quality of foam as described in this IFB.

SAFETY
The Contractor shall provide all equipment and follow proper operation and safety procedures to perform the work. For safe handling and proper mixing, a suction type product loading system shall be utilized.

The Contractor must employ all precautions and handling requirements listed on product labels. Materials that are labeled to be poured down manholes or sprayed onto roots will not be accepted.

TREATMENT GUARANTEE
The Contractor shall guarantee the work for each sewer section (manhole to manhole) that is treated under the agreement as follows:

A. At the option of the City, the Contractor shall at his/her own expense, re-treat a sewer section, or refund 100% of the payment received to treat that section in the event that:

B. Live roots are found in the section within six (6) months after the application.

C. The section plugs up and floods due to tree root obstructions within two (2) years of treatment.

The guarantee period begins on the date of treatment and ends two (2) years after the date of treatment. The guarantee applies to sewer stoppages caused by live tree roots. It does not apply to stoppage caused by grease or other foreign matter; flat, collapsed or deformed pipe, or flooding caused by a surcharged or plugged sewer section downstream from a guaranteed sewer section. This guarantee applies to mainline sewers only.

CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITIES
A. Should any chemical root control agent spill on the ground, the chemical and affected soil shall be removed and safely disposed of. The area shall be restored to its original condition before the spill. Any #19..
