BEAUMONT BASIN WATERMASTER
MEMORANDUM NO. 18-26
Date: December 5, 2018
From: Joseph Zoba, Treasurer
Subject: Discussion Regarding Task Order No. 18 with ALDA Inc. for
the Preparation of the 2018 Consolidated Annual Report,
Estimate of the Basin Safe Yield, Update of the Groundwater
Model, and Associated Consulting Services for 2019
Recommendation: That the Watermaster Committee approve Task Order No. 18
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 2019.
The proposed scope of services for Task Order No. 18, consistent with previously years,
provides for the preparation of the 2018 Consolidated Annual Report, estimate of the
2018 Safe Yield of the Beaumont Basin, and Associated Consulting Services in support
to Watermaster activities during 2019. In addition, this task order incorporates the annual
update of the groundwater model to 2018 hydrologic conditions.
The estimated cost of completion is based on the amended rates for 2017-21 calendar
years and it is the same cost used under Task Order No. 12 for similar services provided
during calendar year 2017 and under Task Order No. 15 during calendar year 2018.
The financial impacts associated with the proposed contract would result in a budget line
item of approximately $95,970, and if approved would result in an invoice sent to each
Watermaster Committee member in the amount of $19,194.
