SUMMARY: FO-09 Shallow, a coastal monitoring well
in the Seaside Basin, has recently been identified as compromised due to a
failure of the well casing that is allowing saltier water from the shallow zone
to mix with groundwater in the Paso Robles Aquifer. Monterey County Health Department has
identified this as cross-contamination between aquifer zones and has agreed on
a destruction plan for FO-09 Shallow that will stop the cross-contamination of
the Paso Robles Aquifer and preserve FO-09 Deep. The District completed a sealed solicitation
for public bids to complete this work and Maggiora Brothers was identified as
the sole bidder. With permission from
the Board, District staff will award the bid and contract to Maggiora Brothers.
RECOMMENDATION: The Administrative Committee
recommends that the Board authorize the General Manager to contract with
Maggiora Brothers in the amount not to exceed $25,000 to destroy FO-09 Shallow.
BACKGROUND: On 7/12/21 District opened a
public bid for the destruction work. The
bid closed on 8/11/21 with the District receiving one bid from Maggiora
Brothers for the amount not to exceed $25,000 as a lump sum to complete the
work to destroy FO-09 Shallow. This work
was not expected and was not budgeted when preparing the FY 2021-2022
budget. The cost incurred to destroy FO-09
Shallow will be added to the Hydrologic Monitoring line during the mid-year
budget adjustment in January, 2022.
