                                         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.
