Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
By Resolution Number (No.) 23-105 (June 6, 2023), the Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved Department of Transportation (DOT) Agreement No. 220042 / BOS Agreement No. 23-097 with Geo-Logic Associates, Inc. (Geo-Logic), in the amount of $273,829, for engineering and design services for the Laytonville Landfill cover repairs, for a term beginning upon execution and continuing through June 30, 2026 (Agreement). By Resolution No. 25-164 (October 7, 2025), the BOS adopted an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program in compliance with California Environmental Quality Act requirements for Laytonville Landfill Cover Remediation and Improvements Project.
Summary of Request:
Laytonville Landfill has been closed and in post-closure maintenance since 1997. After placement of the final cover, deficiencies in the slope construction were identified, resulting in intermittent erosion issues. In 2006, DOT developed plans for a final cover repair project to address these deficiencies; however, the project was never completed, and erosion has since been managed through ongoing maintenance. On June 6, 2023, the Board of Supervisors approved DOT Agreement No. 220042 / BOS Agreement No. 23-097 with Geo-Logic, in the amount of $273,829, to provide engineering, design, and environmental services to update the remediation plans needed to permanently repair the final cover. A First Amendment to the Agreement was executed on April 15, 2025, increasing the total amount by $20,000, for a new total of $293,829. The amendment added two tasks: preparation of an updated conceptual site model for the landfill and expansion of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis. Draft final deliverables have now been completed and submitted to regulatory agencies for review. Throughout the preparation process, both the County and regulatory agencies have requested multiple rounds of revisions. Because the County requested more extensive updates than originally anticipated, and regulatory agencies provided additional comments requiring further responses, Geo-Logic will need additional time and effort to complete the scope of work and advance the documents to construction-ready plans and specifications. The Second Amendment increases the total Agreement amount by $15,000-from $293,829 to $308,829-and extends the termination date from June 30, 2026, to June 30, 2027, to allow for completion of the work and regulatory approval.
