Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

By Resolution No. 12-019 (January 24, 2012), the Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved and executed DOT Agreement No. 110120/BOS Agreement No. 12-013, Standard Services Agreement with Alpha Analytical Laboratories, Inc., for Landfill Water and Gas Monitoring Laboratory Testing.

 

Summary of Request

In compliance with North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board’s Waste Discharge Requirement Orders and Industrial General Permit, DOT staff performs quarterly sampling and testing of ground water, surface water, storm water and leachate from the County’s three closed landfills (Caspar, Laytonville and South Coast).  DOT Agreement No. 110120/BOS Agreement No. 12-013, Standard Services Agreement with Alpha Analytical Laboratories, Inc., for Landfill Water and Gas Monitoring Laboratory Testing, expired on December 31, 2016.  Under the California Environmental Laboratory Improvement Act, samples collected must be analyzed by a professional laboratory certified under the Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) in order to meet regulatory requirements.  As Alpha Analytical Laboratories, Inc., is the only local ELAP certified laboratory, Exception to Bid No. 17-81 was approved on December 21, 2016.  Alpha Analytical Laboratories, Inc., has agreed to provide the required laboratory water testing services under DOT Agreement No. 160098 for a period of approximately five-years on a fee-for-service basis, with a not-to-exceed amount of $405,000.

 

Alternative Action/Motion:

Do not approve DOT Agreement No. 160098 and provide staff with further direction.
