BRADY CITY MANAGER DATE: January 11, 2011 SUBJECT: PURCHASE ORDER ADJUSTMENT FOR CONTRACT MINE COMPLIANCE FIRM - ENVIROMINE Background In January of 2009, the City Council approved a contract with Enviromine to provide services related to mine compliance and inspection. Annual compensation was set at $20,000 with additional compensation requiring additional authorization. There will be extra work assigned to Enviromine related to enforcement of the State Mine and Reclamation Act (SMARA) this fiscal year, therefore additional authorization is needed. Discussion In 2009, City Council approved a contract with Enviromine to provide services related to inspection and SMARA compliance. The contract limited annual compensation to $20,000. The State Mining and Geology Board (SMGB) has received complaints from residents regarding mines within the City's jurisdiction. They are required to investigate all complaints received. Enviromine's services are necessary to respond to the SMGB investigation. They have historical information, as well as the expertise necessary to provide thorough responses. The additional work that will be generated will be funded by deposits made to the mine operator's existing CRS accounts. Fiscal Impact There is no direct fiscal impact to the General Fund because the services being provided are funded through deposits made by the mine operators for the purposes of compliance inspection.
