5. Scope of Work
A. Background and Objectives
The CDFW, OSPR Laboratory Program (OLP) provides in-house testing services for basic water quality parameters in addition to limited nutrient analysis to support water samples collected by CDFW personnel. Analytical testing services are provided to support research studies with partner State agencies, or to support enforcement actions where the goal is to protect the beneficial uses of State waters and to identify pollutants that may imperil wildlife. To provide continuous services to support CDFW activities, contingency capacity for analytical testing will be provided by the Contractor to support testing capabilities not provided by the OLP and to provide services when catastrophic instrument failure occurs at the OLP.
B. Work to be Performed
CDFW employees will collect the water samples and send, ship, or deliver collected samples to the Contractor. CDFW will provide sample containers, preservation, chain-of-custody forms, and shipping containers. CDFW will pay for shipping costs to deliver samples to the Contractor. As needed, the Contractor may be asked to provide containers and associated preservatives, where applicable, and ship to designated locations within 5 days of the request. If service is provided by Contractor, CDFW may request to use courteous courier services, when applicable.
Within 21 business days of receipt of the samples, the Contractor will complete the analysis and deliver a Level II report in electronic format via email, mail, or hand-delivery. In the event a Level IV report is requested, an additional 21 business days will be provided to the Contractor to complete the report. The CDFW Contract Manager will be contacted prior to any sample disposal. OLP is responsible for shipping costs of samples that are requested to be returned.
For samples that are received outside of United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) holding times, the Contractor will contact the CDFW Contract Manager for further action. If directed to continue with the analysis, the Contractor will be compensated for the full price.
For samples that are received within hold time yet analyzed outside of United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) holding times, the Contractor will contact the CDFW Contract Manager for further action. If the Contractor is directed to report the data, the Contractor will provide the out-of-hold data at no cost.
For any samples that will need to be subcontracted to another laboratory, the Contractor is responsible for finding an alternate laboratory with CA Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (CA ELAP) certification to perform the work and is responsible for notifying the Contract Manager in writing prior to submission. The Contractor bears the responsibility to ensure that requirements in this Scope of Work are met by a subcontractor, if used.
The Contractor is responsible for sample disposal in accordance with State and local regulations.

1. LICENSES AND PERMITS (If Applicable) ~ The Contractor must be an individual or firm licensed to do business in California and must obtain, at his/her expense, all licenses and permits required by law for accomplishing any work required in connection with this Agreement.
If you are a Contractor located within the State of California, a business license from the City/County in which you are headquartered is necessary; however, if you are a corporation, a copy of your incorporation documents/letters from the Secretary of State’s Office can be submitted.
If you are a Contractor outside the State of California, you will need to submit to CDFW, a copy of your business license or incorporation papers for your respective State showing that your company is in good standing in that State.
In the event any licenses and/or permits expire at any time during the term of this Agreement, Contractor agrees to provide the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) a copy of the renewed licenses and/or permits within thirty (30) days following the expiration date. In the event the Contractor fails to keep all required licenses and permits current, the State may, in addition to any other remedies it may have, terminate this Agreement upon occurrence of such event.
2. RIGHTS IN DATA ~ The Contractor agrees that all data, plans, drawings, specifications, reports, computer programs, operating manuals, notes and other written or graphic work produced in the performance of this Agreement, are subject to the rights of the State as set forth in this section.
The State will have the right to reproduce, publish, and use all such work, or any part thereof, in any manner and for any purposes whatsoever and to authorize others to do so. If any such work is copyrightable, the Contractor may copyright the same, except that, as to any work which is copyrighted by the Contractor, the State reserves a royalty-free, non-exclusive, and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, and use such work, or any part thereof, and to authorize others to do so.
3. RIGHT TO TERMINATE ~ CDFW reserves the right to terminate this agreement subject to 30 days written notice to the Contractor. Contractor may submit a written request to terminate this agreement only if the State should substantially fail to perform its responsibilities as provided herein.
However, the agreement can be immediately terminated for cause. The term “for cause” will mean that the Contractor fails to meet the terms, conditions, and/or responsibilities of the contract. In this instance, the contract termination will be effective as of the date indicated on the State’s notification to the Contractor.
This agreement may be suspended or cancelled without notice, at the option of the Contractor, if the Contractor or State’s premises or equipment are destroyed by fire or other catastrophe, or so substantially damaged that it is impractical to continue service.
4. SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES ~ Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, any dispute concerning a question of fact arising under this Agreement which cannot be resolved informally, will be decided by the following two (2) step procedure:
a. The Contractor must provide written notice of the particulars of such disputes to the CDFW Contract Manager or appointed representative. The CDFW Contract Manager must respond, in writing, within ten (10) working days of receipt of the written notice of dispute.
California Department of Fish and Wildlife Page 2 of 10

Should the Contractor disagree with the CDFW Contract Manager’s decision, the Contractor may appeal to the second level. Pending the decision on appeal, the Contractor must proceed diligently with the performance of this Agreement in accordance with the CDFW Contract Manager’s decision.
b. The second level appeal must indicate why the CDFW Contract Manager’s decision is unacceptable, attaching it to the Contractor’s original statement of the dispute with supporting documents, and a copy of the CDFW Contract Manager’s response.

The second level appeal must be filed within fifteen (15) working days upon receipt of the CDFW Contract Manager’s decision. Failure to submit an appeal within the period specified will constitute a waiver of all such rights to an adjustment of this Agreement. The Deputy Director, or designee, will meet with the Contractor to review the issues raised. A written decision signed by the Deputy Director or designee, will be returned to the Contractor within fifteen (15) working days of the receipt of the appeal. The decision of the Deputy Director, or designee, will be final.

The Contractor must promptly report any such purchase to the CDFW Contract Manager. Should this Agreement be terminated for any reason, or upon expiration and failure to negotiate hereof, all such property will be returned to the State within the timeframe negotiated between the Contractor and the State.

The Contractor will provide to the CDFW Contract Manager, all particulars regarding the necessity for such property and the reasonableness of the cost.
California Department of Fish and Wildlife Page 3 of 10
(Rev 02/2025)
Before property purchases made by the Contractor are reimbursed by CDFW, the Contractor must provide the following:
1. paid vendor receipts identifying the Agreement number,

3. purchase price,
4. description of the item,
5. serial number,

The Contractor must keep adequate and appropriate records of all property purchased with Agreement funds and at the time of purchase, prepare a Property Purchased with State Funds report and submit one (1) copy to the CDFW Contract Manager and one (1) copy must be retained by the Contractor.
CDFW reserves the right, at any time, to evaluate the cost of property and reimburse at an amount equal to costs reflected in but not limited to Agreements the State Department of General Services, Procurement Division has negotiated with vendors who supply the same type of property. The Contractor must tag all acquired assets. The purpose of tagging assets is to designate the assets as belonging to the State.
Upon termination, expiration or failure to negotiate renewal of this Agreement, all property purchased with Agreement funds must promptly be returned to the State. The Contractor will prepare an inventory of State Furnished Property report and submit to the State and will at that time query the CDFW Contract Manager as to the State’s requirements, including the manner and method, in returning said property to the State. Final disposition of such property will be at State expense in accordance with instructions from the CDFW Contract Manager to be issued immediately after receipt of the final inventory.
6. LOST, STOLEN or DESTROYED PROPERTY ~ The Contractor must immediately report the loss, theft, or destruction to the local law enforcement agency (or the California Highway Patrol {CHP} if the crime occurs on either state-owned or state leased property) and to the CDFW Contract Manager and prepare a Property Survey Report.

8. CONFIDENTIALITY OF DATA ~ The Contractor must protect from disclosure all information made available by CDFW. The Contractor will not be required to keep confidential any data or information which is publicly available, independently developed by the Contractor, or lawfully obtained from third parties. Written consent of CDFW must be obtained prior to disclosing information under this Agreement.
9. DISABLED VETERAN BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DVBE) PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS
~ The Contractor agrees to use DVBE subcontractors or suppliers originally identified by the Contractor, unless the Contractor requests substitution, in writing beforehand to the CDFW Contract Manager and the CDFW Contract Manager has approved such substitution. At a minimum, the request must include:
a. A written explanation of the reason for the substitution; and
b. The identity of the person or firm substituted.
The request and the CDFW Contract Manager’s approval is not to be construed as an excuse for noncompliance with any other provision of law, including but not limited to the subletting and subcontracting Fair Practices Act or any other Agreement requirements relating to the substitution of subcontractors. Failure to adhere to at least the level of participation for DVBE proposed by the Contractor may be cause for Agreement termination and recovery of damages under the rights and remedies due the State.
If the Contractor enters into a subcontract with a DVBE, CDFW and the Contractor are required to follow Military and Veterans Code Sections 999.5, 999.55 and 999.7.
Pursuant to the Military and Veterans Code (M&VC) Section 999.5, when a Contractor has entered into a subcontract with a DVBE, the Contractor must complete a Prime Contractor’s DVBE Subcontracting Report (STD 817), within 60 days after receiving final payment. Upon request by CDFW, the Contractor must provide proof of total payment amount to the DVBE subcontractor.
A person or entity that knowingly provides false information will be subject to a civil penalty for each violation in the minimum amount of two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500) and the maximum amount of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000). An action for a civil penalty under this subdivision may be brought by any public prosecutor in the name of the people of the State of California and the penalty imposed will be enforceable as a civil judgment.
Pursuant to the M&VC Section 999.7, CDFW will withhold ten thousand dollars ($10,000) from the final payment, or the full final payment if less than ten thousand dollars ($10,000), until the Contractor complies with the certification requirements of Military and Veterans Code Section
999.5. Contractors that fail to comply with the certification requirements will be given notice and allowed to cure the defect. If after 15 calendar days but not more than 30 calendar days from the date of the notice, the Contractor fails to comply with the certification requirements, CDFW will permanently deduct ten thousand dollars ($10,000) from the final payment, or the full payment if less than ten thousand dollars ($10,000). The withholding applies to all procurement approaches with a DVBE subcontractor, as defined by M&VC Section 999(b)(4).

California Department of Fish and Wildlife Page 5 of 10
(Rev 02/2025)
Notwithstanding any other law, the CDFW will not withhold more than the amount specified on the final payment of any DVBE contract for the purposes of ensuring compliance with the certification requirements of M&VC 999.5.
10. DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS ~ Any document or written report prepared in whole or in part pursuant to this Agreement must contain a disclosure statement indicating that the document or written report was prepared through an Agreement with CDFW. The disclosure statement must include the Agreement number and dollar amount of all Agreements and subcontracts relating to the preparation of such documents or written reports. The disclosure statement must be contained in a separate section of the document or written report.
If the Contractor or subcontractor(s) are required to prepare multiple documents or written reports, the disclosure statement may also contain a statement indicating that the total Agreement amount represents compensation for multiple documents or written reports. The Contractor must include in each of its subcontracts for work under this Agreement, a provision which incorporates the requirements stated within this section.
11. USE OF SUBCONTRACTOR(S) ~ If the Contractor desires to accomplish part of the services using one (1) or more subcontractors, the following conditions must be met:

Further, any subcontract in excess of $100,000.00 entered into as a result of this Agreement must contain all applicable provisions stipulated in this Agreement.
The Contractor will be responsible for all work performed under this agreement. All persons engaged in the work will be considered employees of the Contractor. When any subcontractor fails to execute a portion of the work in a manner satisfactory to the State, the Contractor must immediately remove such subcontractor upon written request of the State and the subcontractor must not be employed for any portion of the contract. The State will not entertain requests to arbitrate disputes among subcontracts concerning responsibility for performing any part of the work.
All changes in subcontractual relationship during the term of this agreement must be submitted to the CDFW Contract Manager in writing within 10 working days of said change.
12. POTENTIAL SUBCONTRACTOR(S) ~ Nothing contained in this Agreement or otherwise will create any contractual relation between the State and any subcontractor(s) and no subcontract will relieve the primary Contractor of its responsibilities and obligations hereunder. The Contractor
California Department of Fish and Wildlife Page 6 of 10
(Rev 02/2025) agrees to be as fully responsible to the State for the acts and omissions of its subcontractor(s) and of persons directly employed or indirectly employed by any of them as it is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by the Contractor. The Contractor’s obligation to pay its subcontractor(s) is an independent obligation from the State’s obligation to make payments to the primary Contractor. As a result, the State will have no obligation to pay or to enforce the payment of any monies to any subcontractor.
13. TRAVEL AND PER DIEM ~ The Contractor agrees that all travel and per diem paid its employees under this Agreement will be at rates not to exceed those amounts paid to the non-represented/excluded State employees. No travel outside the State of California will be reimbursed unless prior written authorization is obtained from CDFW.
14. NOVATION ~ If the Contractor proposes any Novation Agreement, CDFW will act upon the proposal within sixty (60) days after receipt of the written proposal. The State may review and consider the proposal, consult and negotiate with the Contractor, and accept or reject all or part of the proposal. Acceptance or rejection may be made orally within the sixty (60) day period and confirm in writing within five (5) days. No Novation Agreement will become operative or otherwise binding on the State pursuant to this paragraph in the absence of a formal Novation Agreement amendment which has been approved in accordance with all applicable State policy, laws, and procedures.
15. INSURANCE ~ When the Contractor submits a signed Agreement to CDFW, the Contractor must also furnish either proof of self-insurance, or certificate(s) of insurance showing that the required insurance is presently in effect.
