This is a Non-Competitively Bid (NCB) Contract Justification form and Contract Advertising Exemption Request submitted by the State Coastal Conservancy to the California Department of General Services Procurement Division for contract #15-066 with Chapman University. The contract is for $46,031 to assess methane fluxes from unvegetated, former salt evaporation ponds in South San Francisco Bay and relate this to water chemistry as part of the South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project. The contract term runs from signature date through July 2017.

The justification explains that Dr. Jason Keller of Chapman University is uniquely qualified as the only researcher with the required equipment and procedures to measure greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane, from unvegetated pond wetlands. The study will establish baseline information to accurately calculate potential greenhouse gas sequestration when the ponds are converted to tidal wetlands. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) approached the Coastal Conservancy to provide grant funding for this carbon sequestration study. The contract was approved by the Department of General Services and does not require financing.
