AI Contract Overview

The Semitropic Water Storage District has initiated the 2026 Emergency Golden Mussels Treatment Program to address the discovery of invasive Golden Mussels within its water conveyance system. Because these mussels pose an imminent threat to the district's ability to provide essential public water services to landowners and users, the district adopted Resolution No. ST 26-03. This resolution invokes Public Contract Code section 22050, allowing for emergency contracting without competitive public bidding to ensure the rapid application of registered liquid copper solutions to eradicate and prevent the future establishment of the mussels. The project aims to eliminate and mitigate damage to the water conveyance system, limit the spread of the invasive species, and protect the environment and public property. Following the chemical treatments, the district may replace any facilities that were damaged by the mussels. Due to the emergency nature of the threat, the project has been granted a statutory exemption from CEQA review under Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(2)(4). The program is managed by General Manager Jason Gianquinto and is being implemented within the state of California.
