FROM: Philip B. Moy, Water Resources Department Director
DATE: October 24, 2017
SUBJECT: Approve an Agreement between the County of Lake and the Regents of the University of California for a University Services Agreement to provide phosphorus and nitrogen analysis of lakebed sediment cores from October 2017 through October 2020, for an amount not to exceed $42,663, and authorize the Chair to sign.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The County will engage the services of University of California for phosphorus and nitrogen analysis of lakebed sediment cores from October 2017 through October 2020. The provided services cannot be adequately performed by other agencies or commercial firms. The total cost of the contract shall not exceed $42,663. The university severely limits its liability in the contract; however there is limited risk to the County because the State Dept. of Water Resources assists County Water Resources staff to obtain the sediment cores, which are then shipped to the University for Analysis.
