DISCUSSION:

The State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) has contracted with the Trustees of the California State University (Trustees) for the past nineteen years to provide all labor, materials, and equipment necessary to provide student assistant services in support of various programs within the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board). In June 1999, the State Water Board executed a contract with the Trustees to continue this service. It is anticipated that on or around December 31, 2002 we will have expended all authority under the existing resolution and contract. This resolution will authorize a renewal to the contract to continue necessary student services through June 30, 2005. The total contract funding will not exceed $1,616,863.

POLICY ISSUE:

Should the State Water Board adopt a proposed resolution authorizing the Executive Director or designee to negotiate and amend, as necessary, the student assistant contract with the Trustees of the California State University?

FISCAL IMPACT:

The resolution will authorize up to $1,616,863 to the contract for 2 ½ years (January 1, 2003 through June 30, 2005).

REGIONAL BOARD IMPACT:

The Regional Board is the participant in this student assistant contract. Funding is available in the Regional Board’s budget to accommodate this contract renewal. The Regional Board and Budget Office will work together to ensure the necessary annual allotments are reflected in the contract line item.
