DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency is responsible for the implementation of the City's storm water permit. The permit requires the City to inspect and clean 100 percent of all catch basin facilities by June 1, 2004. The Public Works Agency initiated a maintenance agreement with National Plant Services, Inc. for the inspection and cleaning of the City's catch basins. This contract served as an initial inspection and audit of the City's facilities. This contract also allowed the City to better understand the amount of work required to clean 100 percent of the City's Catch Basin facilities by the June 1, 2004 deadline. As a result of this contract it was determined that an increase in the initial agreement with National Plant Services will be required, and a ~econd maintenance contract will be needed to supplement National Plant ~ervices' contract in order to meet the imposed deadline.
