Trash Capture Device Maintenance
Prepared by: Shannan Young, Environmental & Sustainability Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider approval of an agreement with Storm Water Inspection &
Maintenance Services Inc. (SWIMS) to provide trash capture device maintenance services.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Approving an Agreement with Storm Water Inspection & Maintenance
Services Inc. for Trash Capture Device Maintenance Services.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The total cost of services to be performed by Storm Water Inspection & Maintenance Services Inc.
will not exceed $327,540 for the three-year agreement term. Annual inspection and maintenance
costs total $99,230 for current trash capture devices. The agreement includes a 10% contingency
for maintenance of additional trash capture devices installed during the agreement term. There
are sufficient funds in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 operating budget for year one of this agreement.

DESCRIPTION:
The California Regional Water Quality Control Board San Francisco Bay Region Municipal Regional
Stormwater National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (MRP) requires Dublin, as a
permittee, to reduce trash discharges to local waterways via installation and maintenance of full
trash capture devices, or equivalent methods. Full trash capture devices must remove trash
particles five millimeters or greater in stormwater from storm from stormwater. The City owns
several full trash capture devices, in the form of 130 inlet filters and 18 hydrodynamic separators,
throughout the City. Inlet filters are installed in standard storm drain inlets and capture trash
from a relatively small drainage area (typically less than an acre). Hydrodynamic separators are

larger devices that capture trash from large drainage areas (multiple acres). The full trash capture
devices require annual inspection and maintenance, which must be reported in accordance with
the MRP.
Request for Proposals for Inspection and Maintenance Services
On April 1, 2022, the City issued a Requests for Proposals (RFP) for trash capture device
maintenance. Staff received only one proposal, from Storm Water Inspection & Maintenance
Services Inc. (SWIMS), in response to the RFP. Since the response to the RFP was minimal, Staff
consulted with other agencies, including Dublin San Ramon Service District, to identify ways to
increase interest from qualified maintenance contractors. A second RFP was issued on August 12,
2022. Three proposals were received in response to the RFP, as shown in the table below.

Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Contractor shall
indemnify, defend with counsel acceptable to City, and hold harmless City and its officers, officials,
employees, agents and volunteers from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, claims, expenses,
and costs (including without limitation, attorney's fees and costs and fees of litigation) (collectively,
"Liability") of every nature arising out of or in connection with Contractor's performance of the Services or
its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement, except such Liability caused by
the active negligence or willful misconduct of City.
The Contractor's obligation to defend and indemnify shall not be excused because of the Contractor's
inability to evaluate Liability or because the Contractor evaluates Liability and determines that the
Contractor is not liable to the claimant. The Contractor must respond within 30 days, to the tender of any
claim for defense and indemnity by the City, unless this time has been extended by the City. If the
Contractor fails to accept or reject a tender of defense and indemnity within 30 days, in addition to any
other remedy authorized by law, so much of the money due the Contractor under and by virtue of this
Agreement as shall reasonably be considered necessary by the City, may be retained by the City until
disposition has been made of the claim or suit for damages, or until the Contractor accepts or rejects the
tender of defense, whichever occurs first.
Notwithstanding the forgoing, to the extent this Agreement is a "construction contract" as defined by
California Civil Code Section 2782, as may be amended from time to time, such duties of Contractor to
indemnify shall not apply when to do so would be prohibited by California Civil Code Section 2782.
In the event that Contractor or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of Contractor providing services
under this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the California Public Employees
Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS as an employee of City, Contractor shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions
for PERS benefits on behalf of Contractor or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the
payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of
City.
Section 6. STATUS OF CONTRACTOR.
6.1 Independent Contractor. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Contractor shall
be an independent contractor and shall not be an employee of City. This Agreement shall
not be construed as an agreement for employment. City shall have the right to control
Contractor only insofar as the results of Contractor's services rendered pursuant to this
Agreement and assignment of personnel pursuant to Subsection 1.3; however, otherwise
City shall not have the right to control the means by which Contractor accomplishes
services rendered pursuant to this Agreement. Contractor further acknowledges that

same nature as the Contractor performs for the City, and has the option to perform such
work for other entities. Notwithstanding any other City, state, or federal policy, rule,
