Eighth Amendment to Memorandum of Understanding with Long Beach Utilities Department for Continued Water Quality Sampling, Monitoring, and Reporting through Sep

The Eighth Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding between the Long Beach Harbor Department and the Long Beach Utilities Department extends the term of their agreement by three years, through September 30, 2028. Under this agreement, the Long Beach Utilities Department will continue to provide water quality sampling, analysis, and reporting services for approximately 230 miles of water transmission pipelines owned by the Long Beach Harbor Department. These services are essential for maintaining compliance with the regulatory requirements established by the State Water Resources Control Board and the Department of Drinking Water. The project is performed in Long Beach, California, and is classified under NAICS code 541380 for Environmental Consulting Services. Because the scope of work is limited to basic data collection and monitoring without significant environmental disturbance, it is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under CEQA Section 15306 Class 6 for Information Collection. This administrative extension is non-competitive, and the agreement was signed on July 14, 2026. Key points of contact include Fred Greco, Director of Maintenance, and Allyson Teramoto, Manager.
