File Number: 16-351 <br />most effective way to comply with these requirements. <br />Analysis <br />The Long Term Trash Reduction Plan submitted to the Regional Water Quality Control Board <br />in January, 2014 (attached) divided the City into five trash-generating areas designated as <br />Very High, High, Moderate, Low, and TCD-covered. Staff has analyzed rain flow to all catch <br />basins in the High and Very High trash generation areas and has created a list of catch basins <br />in priority order that would provide the highest level of trash reduction based on the amount of <br />acreage to which TCDs in these catch basins would provide coverage. Phase II-A of the <br />project will target this list of catch basins. Phase II-B of the project will target catch basins in <br />the Moderate trash generation areas. The Low trash generation areas (single-family <br />residential) will not require full trash capture. <br />In response to a request from staff, United Storm Water, Inc. submitted a proposal to install <br />400 TCD’s for $211,500, which would include both Phase II-A and Phase II-B installations. <br />Phase II-A would include approximately 200 TCDs installed in 2016, which would allow the <br />City to report the method for reaching the 70% trash reduction requirement (required in the <br />next Annual Report). Phase II-B will be installed in 2017 after staff evaluates catch basins in <br />the Moderate trash generation areas, allowing the City to accomplish the 70% reduction. <br />In order to make a sole source purchase, the City Council must make a sole source <br />justification finding in accordance with California Public Contract Code section 3400(c)(2), <br />which provides that a sole source purchase is justified in order to match other products in use <br />on a particular public improvement. United Storm Water previously manufactured and <br />installed TCD units for the City. In order for the City to minimize long-term maintenance costs, <br />it is effective to stay with one manufacturer of TCDs. This decreases time required to perform <br />annual maintenance and decreases costs for replacement parts. <br />TCDs from United Storm Water have been approved for use by the Regional Water Quality <br />Control Board and the Alameda County Mosquito Abatement District. Many cities in the East <br />Bay have installed United Storm Water devices because of their compliance with regulatory <br />requirements and because of the superior construction and good level of customer service. <br />Due to the variations amongst the construction of each storm drain, fitting a TCD requires that <br />each installation be custom manufactured. <br />The Contractor will take their truck to each catch basin and manufacture and install the TCDs <br />on location. They will be able to complete eight to ten units per day, five days per week. They <br />are registered with the Department of Industrial Relations and will make payroll information <br />available weekly. <br />In this proposal, the Contractor included their plan for meeting the Local Business <br />Participation Goal required by Municipal Code 1-6-225-(f)-(2). They plan to meet the following <br />five options: <br />(iii) Listing all contact information for any San Leandro business or nonprofit <br />organization that will participate in the project, or provide services or supplies to the <br />prime contractor or supplier if a contract is awarded to the prime contractor or supplier; <br />Page 2 City of San Leandro Printed on 7/13/2016 <br />315
