MEMORANDUM NO. 17-21
Date: August 2, 2017
From: Hannibal Blandon, ALDA Inc.
Subject: Consideration of Task Order No. 14 with ALDA Inc. for the
Preparation of a Methodology to Estimate Storage Losses from
the Beaumont Groundwater Basin at Selected Locations
Recommendation: That the Watermaster Committee approves Task Order No. 14 for
a sum not to exceed $46,190.
Task Order No. 14, prepared by ALDA Inc., in association with Thomas Harder and
Company, will be used to develop a methodology to estimate groundwater storage losses
from selected locations in the basin and under various groundwater recharge and
extraction conditions.
The proposed scope of services for Task Order No. 14 addresses the estimation of
storage losses from the basin; an issue that has been discussed at length in numerous
occasions in the past.
The financial impacts associated with the proposed contract would result in a budget line
item of $46,190, and if approved would result in an invoice sent to each Watermaster
Committee member in the amount of $9,238.
Mr. Blandon and Mr. Harder will make a formal presentation to give members of the
Watermaster Committee an opportunity to discuss the proposed Task Order.
