BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WSWPCF) is located on 1,040 acres, of which 880 acres consist of agricultural lands. The agricultural land is irrigated by approximately 15 miles of earthen irrigation ditches delivering reclaimed wastewater to corn, alfalfa, wheat, and rye fodder crops. Because of the agricultural setting, WSWPCF has ongoing problems with squirrel activity within the pond levees and irrigation ditches. The burrowing and tunneling systems created by the squirrels weaken the levees and ditches causing leaks and instability. Without constant abatement, the squirrel population grows uncontrollably. In the fall of 2017, WSWPCF Staff solicited bids, based on hourly rates, from local rodent control companies. The City executed a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with ABOL Rodent Control for squirrel abatement on October 17, 2017. On April 4, 2018, Council approved Amendment No. 1 to the PSA, which added $40,000 to increase the treatment frequency; however, at that time Staff did not anticipate the tenacity of the squirrel population and did not extend the term, which expires August 31, 2018. Currently there is $19,349 remaining on the agreement. Due to persistent squirrel activity and continued damage to levees and ditches, Staff is requesting to extend the term of the agreement through August 31, 2019 and add an additional $50,000 to fund the extension. All techniques of abatement and/or application must be approved by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation and San Joaquin County Agricultural Department. Staff recommends authorizing City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to Professional Services Agreement with ABOL Rodent Control, of Lodi, for squirrel abatement, in the amount of $50,000. If approved, this amendment will bring the total not -to -exceed agreement amount to $109,999 and extend the term through August 31, 2019. FISCAL IMPACT: The City's irrigation conveyance systems and pond levee systems are critical elements in the Wastewater treatment process. Maintaining sound levees and ditches reduce the probability for ditch and levee failures, which could result in substantial repair costs and potential violations from the State Water Resource Control Board. This project will not impact the General Fund.
