BEAUMONT BASIN WATERMASTER
MEMORANDUM NO. 17-06
Date: February 1, 2017
From: Joseph Zoba, Treasurer
Subject: Discussion Regarding Task Order No. 12 with ALDA Inc. for the
Preparation of the 2016 Consolidated Annual Report, Estimate of
the Basin Safe Yield, Update of the Groundwater Model, and
Associated Consulting Services
Recommendation: That the Watermaster Committee approves Task Order No. 12 for
a sum not to exceed $95,970.
A new task order is necessary to authorize ALDA Inc. to provide technical support
services to the Watermaster Committee during Calendar Year 2017.
The proposed scope of services for Task Order No. 12, consistent with previously years,
provides for the preparation of the 2016 Consolidated Annual Report, estimate of the
2016 Safe Yield of the Beaumont Basin, and Associated Consulting Services in support
to Watermaster activities. In addition, this task order incorporates the annual update of
the groundwater model to 2016 hydrologic conditions. The estimated cost of completion
is based on the newly amended rates for the 2017-21 calendar years. Hourly rates will
remain constant during this five-year period.
The financial impacts associated with the proposed contract would result in a budget line
item of approximately $96,000, and if approved would result in an invoice sent to each
Watermaster Committee member in the amount of $19,194.
