SUBJECT: 4.5(a)--Amend Contract No. 9686 for Natural Gas Pipeline Compliance
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions related to providing Department of Transportation
Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration Natural Gas Pipeline Compliance
Services:
(1) Approve the Fourth Amendment to Contract (C-9686) with EverLine Compliance, LLC,
increasing the annual not-to-exceed contract compensation amount by $52,500, from
$190,000, to a revised not-to-exceed amount of $242,500 each City of Redding fiscal
year, with all other terms, conditions and scope of the services remaining unchanged; and
(2) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the Fourth Amendment and any
related documents necessary to complete and implement the amendment.
Fiscal Impact
The contract term extends through December 31, 2027. If approved, annual expenditures under
the contract will not exceed $242,500 per fiscal year. Funding for these services is included
within the existing Operating and Maintenance (O&M) budget for routine pipeline maintenance
activities. The adopted budget for this line item is $2'72,500 in Fiscal Year (F� 2025-26 and
$254,600 in FY 2026-27, which is anticipated to be sufficient to support the contract without
requiring additional appropriations.
Alternative Action
The Council could decline to approve the Fourth Amendment and provide alternative direction.
Report to Redding City Council May 28,2026
Re: 4.5(a)--Amena'Contract No. 9686 for Natural Gas Pipeline Compliance Page 2
Background/Analysis
The City of Redding (City) owns and operates approximately three miles of 10-inch-diameter
natural gas pipeline that supplies fuel to the Redding Power Plant's generation units. This
pipeline is regulated by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration of the
United States Department of Transportation.
On May 25, 2022, the City issued Request for Proposals No. 5301 for gas pipeline compliance
services. EverLine Compliance, LLC was the sole respondent. Following the City's standard
procurement and contracting procedures, the City entered into a five-year agreement (Contract
C-9686) with EverLine Compliance, LLC for pipeline maintenance and compliance services.
The agreement expires December 31, 2027, and has an annual not-to-exceed contract
compensation amount of $190,000 per fiscal year (July-June), which covers monthly field
services and control rooln monitoring fees as well as additional items billed at as-quoted or time-
and-materials (T&M)rates.
The original contract established was within the City Manager's authority to execute and
approve as it was below the $200,000 per contract/fiscal year threshold requiring City Council
approval; the proposed amendment exceeds that threshold and therefore requires Council
approval.
As the pipeline owner, the City is responsible for ensuring excavation standby services are
provided, to satisfy regulatory damage prevention requirements and protect the pipeline. As part
of the contract with the City, EverLine provides these required standby personnel at T&M rates.
The timing and frequency of excavation activities are generally unpredictable and outside the
City's control.
The contract includes an annual three percent fee escalation for base monthly services, which
reduces the amount of contract authority available for T&M work and standby services. As
shown in the table below, base service costs consume the majority of the current $190,000
annual contract compensation limit, leaving only a small remainder for all other work. While
those remaining amounts are expected to cover routine T&M maintenance, they do not provide
sufficient capacity for unpredictable excavation standby services.
Base Services T&M/Standb
FY 2025-26(Ju12025—Jun 2026) $174,000 $16,000
FY 2026-27 Jul 2026—Jun 2027 $179,000 $11,000
FY 2027 Partial Jul—Dec 2027 $92,000 $3,000
Redding Rancheria's Clear Creek Road Improvement project (part of the new Tribal Health
Village development) is estimated to begin in June 2026 and run for approximately 10 weeks.
The project presents a specific, near-term standby obligation, though not all phases of the project
are expected to trigger the standby requirement. Based on initial project timelines, staff
anticipates no more than seven we�ks of standby coverage will be needed.
To maintain uninterrupted standby services for unanticipated excavation activities and cover the
standby obligation for the Clear Creek Road Improvement project, staff recommends approving
a con�ract amendment to increase the annual not-to-exceed contract compensation amount of
EverLine's contract by $52,500 (from $190,000 up to $242,500 per fiscal year). This increase is
Report to Redding City Council May 28,2026
Re: 4.5(a)--Amena'Contract No. 9686 for Natural Gas Pipeline Compliance Page 3
equivalent to approximately seven weeks of standby services based on contracted T&M rates
(approximately$7,500 per week).
Envir�onmental Review
This is not a project defined under the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further
action is required.
Council PNio�^ity/City Manager Goals
