Harbor board approves contract increase for Moffatt & Nichol to incorporate OSW21 funds
Summary
The Humboldt Bay Harbor District authorized an amendment increasing the Moffatt & Nichol contract to incorporate additional OSW21 grant funds and extended the contract end date to April 30, 2027; the motion passed by voice vote with no roll call tally recorded.
The Humboldt Bay Harbor District board authorized an administrative amendment to its consultant contract with Moffatt & Nichol to incorporate remaining OSW21 funds and extend the contract through April 30, 2027.
The district moved to increase the consultant contract from an earlier authorized total to $12,175,242, a change explained as necessary to incorporate unspent OSW21 funds after other match or partner funds were not used. Staff framed the change as an administrative step to align available grant funds with project tasks.
A motion to authorize the executive director to increase the contract amount was moved and seconded; the board voted by voice and the motion carried. The transcript records the motion and that "all in favor signify by saying 'I'" and that the motion passed; no roll-call tally or names were recorded in the meeting transcript.
District staff said the change is intended to allow completion of outstanding work under the consultant scope, including technical studies and deliverables tied to the heavy-lift marine terminal project and related environmental analyses.
The board did not provide a detailed line-item spending schedule in the public discussion; staff said work will continue under the consultant scope and that the amended contract reflects grant and cooperative-agreement funding already attached to project tasks.
