SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE USE OF THE COUNTY OF ORANGE'S COOPERATIVE
PURCHASING PROGRAM TO PURCHASE AND INSTAL WATER QUALITY
DEVICES CIP 50036
SUMMARY
Staff is requesting City Council authorization to use the County of Orange's Cooperative
Purchasing Program to purchase and install water quality devices for the Citywide Catch Basin
BMP's Project CIP 50036, pursuant to Tustin City Code Section 1624c.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 11-84 authorizing the City of Tustin
to use the County of Orange's Cooperative Purchasing Program, pursuant to Tustin City Code
Section 1624c, to contract with United Storm Water, Inc. to purchase and install water quality
devices at various locations throughout the City for the Citywide Installation of Catch Basin BMP's
Project CIP 50036.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds are budgeted and appropriated in the Citywide Installation of Catch Basin BMP's
Project CIP 50036. These include a $100,000 grant under the Orange County Transportation
Authority's (OCTA) M2 Environmental Cleanup Program and $34,857 in City matching funds.
DISCUSSION
The OCTA M2 Environmental Cleanup Program was established to provide funding to protect
Orange County beaches and waterways from urban runoff associated with transportation
generated pollution. The City applied for and was successful in being awarded a $100,000 grant
under the M2 Environmental Cleanup Program. A minimum local match of 25% is required as park
of the grant. The program distributes funds on a competitive basis for the purchase and installation
of Best Management Practices (BMP's) such as catch basin inserts and screens.
In an effort to aid municipalities using these funds, the County of Orange entered into a Master
Agreement with three vendors to provide and install water quality devices. One of these vendors is
United Storm Water, Inc. who the City has contracted with in the past to install and maintain its
catch basin inserts. Currently, there are over 1,100 catch basins in the City of Tustin. The City
presently has 245 catch basin inserts installed at various locations in the community as well as 70
automatic retractable screens. The M2 grant program will enable the City to install additional catch
basin water quality devices as part of this year's CIP 50036 Project.
Through the County's Master Agreement, prices with each vendor have been established and
terms and conditions have been approved. The Master Agreement has established volume based

pricing and will save the City approximately 15% off the purchase price that the City has paid for
similar BMP's in the past. In addition, the M2 Grant requires that these BMP's must be installed by
the end of this fiscal year, June 30, 2012.
Of the three vendors included in the County's Master Agreement, United Storm Water, Inc.
provided the lowest cost estimate to provide and install catch basin devices. It is therefore
recommended that in accordance with Municipal Code Section 1624c, the City use the County's
Master Agreement with United Storm Water, Inc. to purchase and install at least 100 automatic
retractable screens and at least 55 catch basin inserts as part of the Citywide Installation of Catch
Basin BMP's Project CIP 50036.
