Brief

Specifics of the contract modification are not detailed in the available activity log.

Full summary

The Board of Harbor Commissioners initiated this file to amend an existing personal services agreement with Tetra Tech, Inc. for administration of the Clean Truck Program at the Port of Los Angeles. The Board is asking the City Council to adopt Resolution No. 26-10776, which authorizes the first amendment to Agreement No. 26-9989-A. The Harbor Department reports there is no impact to the General Fund, meaning the contract is funded through port revenues rather than city tax dollars. The Clean Truck Program is a Port of Los Angeles initiative designed to reduce diesel emissions from heavy-duty trucks that serve the port. Tetra Tech, Inc. is the contracted firm providing program administration services, which typically includes compliance tracking, data management, and program oversight. The first amendment modifies the original agreement, though the specific changes to scope, budget, or term are not detailed in the documents submitted to Council. The Board also asks Council to affirm its CEQA determination that the amendment is administratively exempt from environmental review under Article II, Section 2(f) of the Los Angeles City CEQA Guidelines, a standard finding for contract amendments of this type. The file was submitted by the Board of Harbor Commissioners on September 1, 2026, pursuant to Section 606 of the Los Angeles City Charter, which requires Board actions of this kind to come before the full Council for approval. It was referred to the Trade, Travel, and Tourism Committee on September 3 and is scheduled for a committee hearing on September 11, 2026. The item has not yet been acted on by the full Council and remains pending.
