ITEM – PROJECT NAME: South Y Feasibility Study of Remedial Alternatives
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: Accept Agreement Amendment Request D received from Kennedy/Jenks Consultants for additional engineering consultant services requested to complete the South
Y Feasibility Study of Remedial Alternatives in the amount of $6,360.
DISCUSSION: In August 2017, the Board authorized staff to enter into an Agreement with Kennedy/Jenks Consultants (KJC) to complete an engineering South Y Feasibility Study of Remedial
Alternatives (Feasibility Study) and develop a recommended remedial alternative to address tetrachloroethylene (PCE) contamination found in groundwater used for drinking water supply
within the South “Y” Area of the City of South Lake Tahoe (District Task Order No. 5). This work is being funded, in part, through a Proposition 1 Groundwater Planning Grant Agreement
(Agreement) administered through the State Water Resources Control Board Division of Financial Assistance (SWRCB – DFA).
In December 2019, the Board accepted Agreement Amendment Request C for additional engineering consultant services requested to complete the South Y Feasibility Study of Remedial Alternatives
(Feasibility Study). KJC completed the draft Feasibility Study (FS) Report and accompanying Interim Remedial Action Plan (IRAP); and developed presentation materials for the March 31
on-line meeting presenting the public draft IRAP. Tasks to satisfy remaining submittal requirements under Agreement D17512508 include finalizing the draft reports; and preparation of
a Final Project Report and Report Summary.
The total amount of the Agreement Amendment D request is $6,360. Approval of Amendment D would raise the cost ceiling for Task Order No. 5 to $609,378. As the completion of the tasks
is needed to satisfy the remaining submittal requirements under Agreement D17512508, District staff recommends that the Board accept KJC’s Agreement Amendment Request D (attached).
Under the funding requirements of the Agreement; the budget increase would be distributed on a 50% cost share basis.
