DISCUSSION:
Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions, Inc. (Wood) has been assisting the City in completing the technical reports to fulfil the requirements of the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Cleanup order, including collecting data and submitting reports.
City staff is requesting to increase the Wood contract by $102,200, for an amount not to exceed $854,750, so that they can continue to provide data and technical documentation in compliance with the RWQCB’s clean-up order, and to prepare a Supplemental Remedial Action Plan for the Terminal 1 site.
The Cleanup Order was issued by the RWQCB in 2004. The City is the named party on the existing RWQCB Order and is therefore responsible for completing the work under that Order. As part of the Land Disposition Agreement (LDA) with Terminal One Development LLC, the developer will be responsible for completing the required remediation work on the City’s behalf.
The RWQCB has determined that a Supplemental Remedial Action Plan (RAP) to reflect the proposed Terminal One Project proposal and description of changes to the previous RAP approach is needed. City staff is seeking a contract amendment to add additional funds so that Wood can continue to assist the City in the data collection and documentation needed.
