How it got here
This legislation originated from the need to enhance dam safety and engineering services in response to state mandates following the Oroville Dam incident.
Following the Oroville Dam spillway failure, the California Division of Safety of Dams mandated the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) to conduct condition assessments of dams and reservoirs under its jurisdiction.
The SFPUC awarded Contract No. PRO.0138.C to AECOM Technical Services, Inc. for engineering services related to dam and reservoir improvements, with a not-to-exceed amount of $11 million for a term of 11 years.
The Board of Supervisors authorized the General Manager of the SFPUC to execute the contract with AECOM for planning and design support, confirming the contract's terms and budget.
The SFPUC approved Amendment No. 1 to increase the contract amount by $9 million, bringing the total to $20 million, to continue providing necessary engineering services for dam safety projects.
The Budget and Finance Committee recommended the resolution for the contract amendment to the Board of Supervisors.
The Board of Supervisors adopted the resolution authorizing the contract amendment, allowing the SFPUC to proceed with the increased funding for engineering services.
The Mayor approved the resolution, finalizing the amendment to the contract with AECOM Technical Services, Inc.
