Solicitation # 10214186
The California Department of Water Resources is soliciting boat portage services to support the Temporary Barriers Project, managed by the Division of Operations and Maintenance. The project involves the annual installation of rock barriers in South Delta channels to mitigate water level impacts on agricultural diversions. Because these barriers block navigable channels from May through November, the contractor is required to trailer boats across the barriers at two specific locations: Old River near Tracy and the Grant Line Canal. The anticipated contract term is three years starting in January 2027, with an option to renew for an additional two years. The contract was awarded to Bidder B for 131,000 dollars. Operational requirements include providing two trucks and two trailers, with personnel possessing active California Business Licenses, Class C Driver's Licenses, and California Boater Cards. Services are required daily, including holidays, with specific hours ranging from 6 AM to 8 PM depending on the location. The contractor must maintain comprehensive insurance, including Commercial General Liability, Automobile Liability, and Motor Truck Cargo Legal Liability. Key deliverables include maintaining electronic boat logs of all vessels, reporting accidents via specific state forms, and submitting a comprehensive end-of-season report. Payment is processed monthly in arrears, subject to a 10 percent retention fee and written acceptance of work by the DWR Contract Manager.
