BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sanitation District (OC San) has a need for general and semi-skilled labor to perform a variety of maintenance and upkeep tasks on OC San facilities and grounds when internal resources are constrained or when a demand for such services temporarily increases. Such services include, but are not limited to, tunnel cleaning, clean-out of storm and catch basins, power washing process areas, fence repair, trenching and asphalt repair, clearing easements, and concrete patching.
Staff recommends approving a primary and secondary service provider for prevailing wage work. If the primary provider is unable to meet the requirements of a request, the secondary could be used. Any individual task performed under these contracts of more than $35,000 must be approved by the Purchasing Manager to ensure compliance with public works legal requirements.
