title

Request for approval of an amendment to an agreement with AIG Technical Services, LLC, in the amount of $382,000, for hydrology and hydraulic (H&H) reviews, letter of map change support, and other H&H analyses (Project ID Z100-00-00-P001, Agreement No. 2024-49, Countywide, MWBE Goal: 19.6%, MWBE Current Participation: 100%).

Background and Discussion:

This agreement will allow AIG to provide H&H and letter of map change support (LOMC) support and to be assigned H&H analyses to support urgent requests made of the Planning Division by other departments for Z100-00-00-P001 (H&H On-Call Services).

 

Expected Impact:

This H&H on-call contract will provide

•                     Support for Engineering Division H&H reviews with Review support for H&H software the Flood Control District may not have, or that our in-house reviewers may not be proficient with,

•                     Reduced review time by adding additional review capacity, and

•                     Updates to the standardization of the review process. 

•                     Help provide H&H support on Engineering Division projects Conduct H&H analysis made of the Planning Division by other departments.

•                     Helps our projects meet NFIP requirements for LOMCs.

 

Alternative Options:

The alternative to approving this item would be limit H&H review of Engineering Division projects to in-house staff, which would result in increased review times, a short-term inability to review models prepared in certain software, and a short-term need to purchase additional modeling software and train in-house staff on that software. LOMCs would need to be included in the project budget for all applicable Flood Control District projects.
