Santa Monica Groundwater Basin Monitoring Program

1 Introduction

1.1 Summary

The City of Santa Monica, (the "City”) is soliciting proposals from qualified consultants or firms to implement a groundwater monitoring, modeling, and technical support program for the Santa Monica Groundwater Basin (SMGB).

1.2 Background

The Santa Monica Groundwater Monitoring Program (Program) aims to unite all State-mandated groundwater monitoring requirements under one contract to manage the basin sustainably and in full regulatory compliance. Specific State orders for the Charnock and the Olympic Well Fields will be implemented in full compliance with orders/permits. In addition to remediation activities to restore the groundwater basin water quality, the City is also currently operating under the Division of Drinking Water’s 97-005 Policy Memo requirements to produce drinking water from the Charnock and Olympic Well Fields. The selected consultant will also work with current City engineering consultants to meet regulatory reporting requirements for the Santa Monica Subbasin Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) and the City’s groundwater recharge permit for its Sustainable Water Infrastructure Project (SWIP).

The City of Santa Monica is the only municipal agency that currently produces groundwater from the SMGB. The City has been producing groundwater from the basin since the 1920’s and has been actively managing groundwater since the 1950’s. The City owns and operates three groundwater production well fields in the SMGB: Arcadia, Charnock, and Olympic well fields. The Santa Monica Groundwater Monitoring Program (Program) includes the following regulatory efforts:

• Coordination with the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), the Division of Drinking Water (DDW), the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB), and other stakeholders to remove industrial pollutants that have contaminated the groundwater of the basin.

• Coordination with the Department of Water Resources (DWR) and the Santa Monica Basin Groundwater Sustainability Agency (SMBGSA) to support implementation of the Santa Monica Basin Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP). The SMBGSA members include the City of Santa Monica, City of Los Angeles (via Los Angeles Department of Water and Power), Los Angeles County (via Planning Department), Culver City, and Beverly Hills.

• Support regulatory compliance efforts for monitoring and reporting related to groundwater recharge operations for the City’s Sustainable Water Infrastructure Project (SWIP), an advanced water treatment facility that treats a blend of

Santa Monica Groundwater Basin Monitoring Program wastewater and stormwater/urban runoff for non-potable reuse and indirect potable (i.e., groundwater recharge via direct injection).

Multiple State regulatory agencies require groundwater monitoring in accordance with approved compliance schedules, including field sampling, laboratory analysis, and interpretation of groundwater quality and hydrogeologic data, as well as preparation and submittal of regulatory reports. These requirements exhibit substantial overlap in monitoring locations, analytical parameters, frequency, and reporting deliverables. To increase efficiency, ensure data consistency, and maintain regulatory compliance, the City proposes to implement an integrated groundwater monitoring program encompassing standardized sampling protocols, data validation and quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC), hydrogeologic and geochemical evaluation, numerical modeling, and consolidated reporting.

1.3 Contact Information

Any inquiries or requests regarding this procurement should be submitted via OpenGov. Other City officers, agents, employees or representatives do not have authority to respond on behalf of the City. Contact with unauthorized City personnel during the selection process may result in disqualification.

The City estimates that approximately 200 hours to be allocated per year for this task.

Services under this task include, but are not limited to the following:

A. While the City’s Water Resources Division (WRD) believes it has identified the primary contributors to the SMGB groundwater contamination, WRD closely monitors water quality and where appropriate will take quick action to identify potential sources of newly discovered contamination. In these instances, the City’s WRD has a separate consultant that would assist in performing the necessary analysis and agency negotiation to ensure that polluters are identified and held accountable to compensate the City for damages.

B. The City is working with the United States Geological Survey (USGS) on a study of the SMGB to better its connection to the overall groundwater basin network that extends beyond SMGB. The consultant will serve as a liaison on behalf of the City to provide technical support as part of the on-going SMGB study, including:

1. refinement of the SMGB portion of the larger regional Los Angeles Coastal Plain groundwater flow model,

2. providing groundwater level and well construction data to calibrate the regional groundwater model.

C. The City has performed quarterly monitoring of the Olympic Well Field for close to two decades. The City may decide in the next 2 years to request a reduction in well monitoring requirements. The consultant shall conduct a technical analysis to identify which monitoring wells are not critical for basin management and prepare a technical memo supporting a reduction in well monitoring and/or chemical analyses.

5.2.3 Oaks Initiative*

CITY OF SANTA MONICA OAKS INITIATIVE NOTICE

NOTICE TO APPLICANTS, BIDDERS, PROPOSERS AND OTHERS SEEKING

DISCRETIONARY PERMITS, CONTRACTS, OR OTHER BENEFITS FROM THE CITY

OF SANTA MONICA

Santa Monica’s voters adopted a City Charter amendment commonly known as the Oaks Initiative. The Oaks Initiative requires the City to provide this notice and information about the Initiative’s requirements. You may obtain a full copy of the Initiative’s text from the City Clerk.

This information is required by City Charter Article XXII—Taxpayer Protection. It prohibits a public official from receiving, and a person or entity from conferring, specified personal benefits or campaign advantages from a person or entity after the official votes, or otherwise takes official action, to award a “public benefit” to that person or entity. The prohibition applies within and outside of the geographical boundaries of Santa Monica.

All persons or entities applying or receiving public benefits from the City of Santa Monica shall provide the names of trustees, directors, partners, and officers, and names of persons with more than a 10% equity, participation or revenue interest. An exception exists for persons serving in those capacities as volunteers, without compensation, for organizations exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3), (4), or (6), of the Internal Revenue Code. However, this exception does not apply if the organization is a political committee or controls political committees. Examples of a “public benefit” include public contracts to provide goods or services worth more than $25,000 or a land use approval worth more than $25,000 over a 12-month period.

In order to facilitate compliance with the requirements of the Oaks Initiative, the City compiles and maintains certain information. That information includes the name of any person or persons who is seeking a “public benefit.” If the “public benefit” is sought by an entity, rather than an individual person, the information includes the name of every person who is: (a) trustee, (b) director, (c) partner, (d) officer, or has (e) more than a ten percent interest in the entity.

TO BE COMPLETED BY ALL CONTRACTORS PROVIDING SERVICES TO THE CITY

OF SANTA MONICA IN EXCESS OF $54,200

The City of Santa Monica Municipal Code Chapter 4.65, Living Wage Ordinance (LWO), establishes a Minimum Wage of $25.00 for certain employees of contractors providing services to the City where services exceed $54,200 or more and requires that contractors also provide the same health care and other benefits to employees’ same sex spouses and domestic partners as are provided to other employees’ spouses.

An employee covered by the LWO is any person who does not actually work as a manager, supervisor, or confidential employee, and who is not required to possess an occupational license.

The Living Wage Ordinance applies the services sought pursuant to this bid and bidders are required to prepare and return the Living Wage Certification Form. If the bidder is selected, the bidder must maintain payroll records that include, at minimum, the full name of each employee providing services under the contract, job classification and rate of pay. Bids that fail to include Certification Forms may be considered non-responsive and excluded from further consideration.

Please prepare the following certification if you are a contractor engaging in a contract for services with the City of Santa Monica in excess of $54,200.

Your signature on this certification grants the City permission to review any and all payroll books and records and any company documents pertaining to the benefits offered to employees to assure your compliance with the LWO during the term of the contract.

Please direct any questions to:

City of Santa Monica Finance Department Attention: Living Wage Compliance Section 1685 Main Street, Mail Stop 09 Santa Monica, CA 90401
