Title
Consider recommendations regarding a Resolution authorizing the Public Health Director to enter into a Grant Agreement for Ocean Water Quality Monitoring and Public Notification Services, as follows:
a) Adopt a Resolution authorizing the Public Health Director to enter into a Grant Agreement (Number 14-469-250) with the State Water Resources Control Board in the amount of $120,000.00 to provide public beach water quality monitoring and public notification services for the period July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015;
b) Approve and authorize the Public Health Director to execute future Agreements with the State Water Resources Control Board for the Public Beach Water Safety Program, if funds are available, as long as the award is within 10% of the previous annual amount and there is no significant change in the scope of work required under the Agreement; and
c) Determine that these activities are exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review per CEQA Guideline Section 15061(b)(3), since it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activities may have a significant effect on the environment.
