EXECUTIVE Director Robert H.Boney,C~iairman of the Executive
COMMITTEE Committee,reported that the Special Committee ap—
REPORT pointed by the Executive Committee,consisting of
]Directors Willis H.Warner,Chairman,Virgil H.Reed,
and Hugh W.Warden,had spent three days interviewing fourteen
consulting engineering firms and analyzing the letters of appli
cation.They reported back to the Executive Committee with the
names of three engineering firms whom they believed to be the
best qualified to do the work.After study and discussion,the
Executive Committee unanimously recommends that the firm of
Harrison &Woolley of Santa Ana (affiliated with Headman,Fer
guson and Carollo of ?hoentx)be employed to modify the Bacon
report and to design plans arid specifications for construction;
and.that Mr.Fred D.Bowlus be ~employed as a consultant to the
Sanitation Districts on the ocean outfall.Also,that the Exec—
utive Committee recommends that the Di~triot Boards instruct it
to negotiate contracts with Harrison &Woolley and with Mr.Fred
D.Bowlus.
Director Warner reported that most of the firms interviewed
and the one selected by the Executive Committee,had based theji.’
fees upon the American Society of Engineers’fee percentage
curves.That these fee percentages~are a eliding scale and if
one firm does the work for everything within the bond issue for
the joint districts,the fee percentage will be lower than if
districts individually contract phases of their work.
Director Willard Smith expree~ed the opinion that the court’
decision on the limited participation litigation and the question
of extension of time being granted to secure Chapter 20 Funds
should be settled before contracts are negotiated.
Judge Mar1~s reported that these two factors would be taken
into consideration in the contracts and that termination clauscs
would be provided to take care of an adverse court decision and
non—extension of time on Chapter 20 Funds.

i’UNDS ded by Director Robert H.Boney,and duly carried by
