CLMSD Monitoring Well Replacement

The City of Lakeport is undertaking the replacement of a non-functional groundwater monitoring well, designated MW-4, at its Wastewater Treatment Facility to comply with the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board’s Monitoring and Reporting Program No. R5-2012-0025. The work involves over-drilling and deepening the existing well; if this effort fails to restore functionality, a replacement well, MW-4R, will be installed nearby within the facility's previously disturbed boundaries. All activities—including drilling, well development, decontamination, and waste disposal—are confined strictly to developed areas of the treatment plant, with no disturbance or vegetation removal in undeveloped zones. The project has been determined eligible for categorical exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically Sections 15301 (minor alterations to existing facilities), 15304 (minor land alterations in previously disturbed areas), and 15306 (basic data collection activities), and is supported by a certified exemption finding and a filed Notice of Exemption. No federal acquisition regulation clauses are incorporated, and there is no indication of federal funding, appropriation codes, or standardized federal procurement mechanisms. The contract is classified as a forecast and lacks pricing details, payment terms, delivery schedules, invoicing procedures, or formal evaluation criteria. Oversight is managed internally by the City of Lakeport Community Development Department, with Paul Harris, Utilities Director, serving as the project executor. No contracting officer, technical representative, or offeror certifications are identified, and no formal solicitation number, contract type, or submission deadlines are provided. All work must result in a functional monitoring well that meets regulatory requirements without introducing new environmental impacts.
