Summary & Background: The Department of Public Works recommends approval to renew existing contract with Integrated Science Engineering, Inc. to provide water quality monitoring services.
Scope of Work: This contract with Integrated Science Engineering, Inc. provides water quality monitoring and related services necessary to comply with Fulton County's National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permits for Wastewater Treatment, which require water quality monitoring in support of the Watershed Protection Plan. The scope of work includes in-stream water quality monitoring and the collection of samples for laboratory analysis. The data collected must be submitted to the state Environmental Protection Division by June 15th of each year for the County to remain in permit compliance with the State of Georgia.
Community Impact: Water quality monitoring provides the necessary data to determine if Fulton County’s efforts to reduce pollution in the receiving streams and rivers are effective. This data is provided to the State of Georgia to assist in developing the capacity of receiving streams to accept treated water discharges.
Department Recommendation: The Department request approval to renew existing contract with Integrated Science Engineering, Inc.
Project Implications: Water quality monitoring is a regulatory requirement of the County’s National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permits and wastewater discharge permits. Without this contractual service, the program would be negatively impacted and could place the County in violation of the provisions of these permits, which could expose the County to fines and possible criminal prosecution.
Community Issues/Concerns: No issues/concerns were raised by clients concerning the water quality monitoring services.
Department Issues/Concerns: Public Works does not have any issues/concerns regarding the award of this contract.
