Subject:
Discussion with possible action to approve a professional service agreement between AssureCo Risk Management & Regulatory Compliance, LLC. and Webb County Utilities in the amount of $10,500.00 for year One (1) of a Three year contract for development and maintenance of a Risk Management Program (RMP) as required by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for the Water and Wastewater Treatment Plants regarding Safe Use and Maintenance of Hazardous Chemicals, and authorizing the County Judge to execute all relevant documents; and any other matters incident thereto.
[Account #801-3001-6402]
Issue:
Original agenda item did not stipulate the authorization to approve the professional services agreement only to award RFP 2015-06 to MunicipalH2O. PO 16-0005766 was issued April 13, 2016. Invoice for first year services is being held until professional service agreement is fully executed.
Solution:
Approve the professional service agreement between Webb County Utilities Department and AssureCo Risk Management & Regulatory Compliance, LLC., d/b/a MunicipalH2O.
Result:
Comply with payments terms and finalize professional service agreement.
Background:
Section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act Amendments requires EPA to publish regulations and guidance for chemical accident prevention at facilities that use extremely hazardous substances. These regulations and guidance are contained in the Risk Management Plan (RMP) rule. The information required from facilities under RMP helps local fire, police, and emergency response personnel prepare for and respond to chemical emergencies. Making RMPs available to the public also fosters communication and awareness to improve accident prevention and emergency response practices at the local level. The RMP rule was built upon existing industry codes and standards. It requires companies that use certain flammable and toxic substance to develop a Risk Management Program.
