The contractor has agreed to cap costs at Fiscal Year 2012/13 rates. During <br /> Fiscal Year 2013/14, staff will complete a Request for Proposals process to solicit proposals from <br /> qualified service providers. <br /> <br /> In October 2004, the City adopted an ordinance amending Chapter 39 of the Santa Ana Municipal <br /> Code to control the discharge of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from food service establishments (FSE) <br /> into the City's sewer collection system. In January 2005, the City's Public Works Agency began <br /> implementation of a comprehensive FOG control program that includes regular inspections of all <br /> FSEs to ensure compliance with the ordinance. The FOG ordinance and control program are <br /> requirements of the California State Water Quality Control Board. <br /> <br /> On May 3, 2010, the Council awarded an agreement to Environmental Engineering and Contracting, <br /> Inc., (EEC) for a one-year term, with the provision for three one-year renewals. The services EEC <br /> provides include inspection of new food service establishments, training and support of City <br /> Sanitation Inspectors, support and maintenance of the FSE database, coordination with other <br /> agencies to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, and technical support to City staff for all <br /> FOG-related issues. <br /> <br /> Subsequently, the Council approved two amendments, on June 6, 2011, and June 4, 2012, <br /> respectively, each extending the agreement for an additional one-year term. During the three years <br /> that EEC been under contract, they have continued to provide exceptional quality services and have <br /> successfully completed all elements of the agreement. EEC has agreed to renew the agreement to <br /> 2501-1 <br />
