RESOLUTION WAIVING THE PUBLIC CONTRACT CODE BID REQUIREMENTS FOR EMERGENCY ROADWAY
REPAIRS NECESSARY AS A RESULT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES' SPILLWAY INCIDENT
WHEREAS, on Sunday, February 12, 2017, Butte County was notified of the potential for imminent
failure of the Oroville Dam's Emergency Spillway; and
WHEREAS, Butte County's Emergency Operation Center was activated late in the afternoon on
February 12, 2017; and
WHEREAS,the State Department of Water Resources immediately hired contractors to begin hauling
very heavy loads of rip rap, 24 hours per day, into the Spillway site, to stabilize the Spillway in order to
stabilize the structure; and
WHEREAS, this combination of very heavy truck loading, along with heavy rainfall, caused a significant
degradation in the condition of Canyon Drive, and several other County maintained roadways; and
WHEREAS, with the inclement weather, evacuation warning for the potential Spillway failure, and
significant areas of failed roadways,there were not enough County resources to effectively maintain the
roadways in a safe condition; and
WHEREAS, Franklin Construction was retained on a time and materials basis, to assist with placement
of steel plates to span the failed sections of roadways, and to provide on call emergency roadway
maintenance services.
NOW,THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors of the County of Butte:
1. Butte County roadways were significantly impacted by the potential failure of the
Emergency Spillway at the Oroville Darn, and the resulting heavy truck loading across
County maintained roadways.
2. This heavy truck traffic significantly damaged some County Roadways.
B. County resources were not able to keep up with the onslaught of damage from the heavy
truck loading.
4. Repairs included leveling the failedareas with temporary asphalt concrete, and then
placement of heavy steel plates to span the failed areas.
5. These repairs were of an emergency nature, caused by the immediate and continuous
heavy truck loading.
B. Due,to the continuous life safety threats of these roadway failures, it was not possible to
delay repairs until a normal competitive bid could be accomplished.
7. Pursuant to California Public Contract Code Section 22050, the immediate approval of a
written contract with a local construction firm, with the proper equipment and expertise to
assist with the emergency maintenance of this roadway, was necessary to respond to the
emergency, to maintain proper access for resources streaming into the Spillway area, and to
protect the citizens that utilized these roadways on a daily basis.
