TITLE: Approval of Amendment No. Two to On -Call Maintenance/Repair
Services Agreement with Newport Dredging Company Inc. for Harbor
Maintenance and Repair Services
ABSTRACT:
In order to maintain the safety and integrity of Newport Harbor and the various public
harbor facilities, several maintenance and repair service agreements are required. Staff
requests the approval of Amendment No. Two to the On -Call Harbor Maintenance and
Repair Services agreement with Newport Dredging Company DBA South Mooring
Company until such time as a formal Request for Bids can be completed.
RECOMMENDATION:
a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because
this action will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly;
b) Approve Amendment No. Two to On -Call Maintenance/Repair Services Agreement
with Newport Dredging Company Inc. DBA South Mooring Company for Harbor
Maintenance and Repair Services to add $75,000 to the current agreement for a total
not -to -exceed amount of $325,000.00; and
c) Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the amendment.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
The adopted budget includes sufficient funding for such services. Individual maintenance
and repair projects or tasks will be expensed to the appropriate Operations &
Maintenance and/or Capital Improvement Program accounts in current year Harbor
Department and Public Works Department budgets.

DISCUSSION:
The City has typically used private sector contractors to fulfill various maintenance or
repair services within Newport Harbor. These services include: public dock and pier
repairs, maintenance of the City's mooring buoys, public dock and pier cleaning, City
sewer pumpout station maintenance and repairs, assisting field personnel in clearing and
removing trash/debris throughout the harbor including the log boom, minor dredging and
beach maintenance, and other services which help maintain the safety and integrity of
the City's Harbor and its public facilities. Staff typically maintains several contractors on-
call to address the various items of work needed.
Staff is currently working on Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and Request for Bids (RFBs),
in anticipation of future expiration dates and contract limits on existing maintenance
agreements, for the following harbor related services:
• Outdoor janitorial services for docks — currently under review and selection
process
• Pumpout Inspections and Specialized Maintenance
• On -Call Dock Repair and Maintenance
• Boat Removal, Storage and Disposal
• Vessel Towing
Staff is in the process of preparing a Mooring, Maintenance and Repair Services and Log
Boom Work RFB, which will require formal Public Works bidding procedures and award
to the lowest responsible bidder, which differs from past practice of the RFP process.
This extension will provide staff the necessary time to award a new contract.
The contract with South Mooring was approved by Council on August 14, 2018 after a
May 2017 RFP for various harbor related maintenance services. This original contract
had a Not -to -Exceed (NTE) of $200,000 and a scope that included mooring, maintenance
and repair services; log boom work; sea lion abatement; harbor cleanup; dock repair and
maintenance; boat demolitions; ongoing dock cleaning; and the maintenance and
inspections of pumpouts. Both the Harbor Department and the Public Works Department
shared the management and spending of this contract.
In April 2019, the City entered into Amendment No. 1 of the contract adding $50,000 to
the contract. Under Council Policy F-14, the City Manager may sign and award any
contract amendment "so long as the contract amount does not exceed 125% of the
original contract amount."

The existing agreement term is through January 31, 2021. However, due to the increased
volume of work in the harbor and use by both departments, the current on-call
maintenance/repair service agreement has reached its spending capacity.
The Harbor Department's and the Public Works Department's combined annual spending
with South Mooring is approximately $126,000; therefore, staff is requesting an additional
$75,000 be added to the contract for a new NTE of $325,000 to get both departments
through the 2020 calendar year. With the additional $75,000, the Harbor Department and
the Public Works Department will be able to continue their maintenance and repair service
work in Newport Harbor with South Mooring, while conducting their RFPs and RFB for
the creation of new contracts with new or existing contractors.
This agreement is crucial for both the Harbor Department and the Public Works
Department to ensure that all public harbor facilities, from docks/piers to moorings and
sewer pumpouts, are kept in good operating condition and available for use.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not
result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment)
and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA
Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no
potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
