Approve Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement for Services with Pacific Coast Well Drilling, Inc DBA Precision Hydro for Well Repair Services for CSIP Well 10H01, to add to the Scope of Work, extend the term by a year and, to add a dollar increase of $95,000 for a total contract amount not to exceed $191,770; and authorize the General Manager to execute Amendment No. 1.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
On February 5th 2025, the Agency entered into an Agreement for Services for Well Repairs for CSIP Wells 10H01 and test pumping at Well 01P01. The work was scheduled and completed through the summer of 2025. Due to complications and unknowns during the repairs, additional and modified work is necessary to complete the repairs. During the planning phase of this additional work, complications at other wells came up.
This work will include additional material and equipment procurement to conduct the anticipated modified repairs of Well 10H01, as well as any modifications on-site needed to install the equipment. Further test pumping will occur once the well is returned to operational condition. Additional services will include work at Well 03H01 and Well 15A01, due to recent findings in operational condition. The Work at 03H01 will include swapping out the motor for a freshly rebuilt motor. Work at 15A01 will include pulling the equipment to investigate a grinding sound coming from the equipment, likely from a bearing or bearings within the well-pumping equipment.
Amendment No.1 will add $95,000 to the agreement and extend the term length by one year. This will allow the repairs to be made. Funding is in Fund 131 under Well Maintenance, Planning and Repairs.
The BOD Finance and Administration Committee recommended that this amendment move forward at the March 6th 2026 meeting.
