Smith, Telecommunications Manager Department of General Services Subject: Contract for Cable Locating Services BACKGROUND: On January 7, 1997, Indian River County signed a contract with North Carolina Utility Services, a Division of Carolina Telephone and Telegraph Company, for cable locating services. On January 1, 1997, the assets of this entity and some others had been transferred to NOCUTS, Inc. On March 7, 2000 the Board approved Amendment No. 1 to the contract as requested by NOCUTS Inc. to establish a termination date. As Amendment No. 1 went through the process for a Board approval, NOCUTS, Inc. was being acquired by Asplundh Corporation. By the time the signed Amendment No. 1 was returned from NOCUTS, the transfer had taken place and the signer of the contract for NOCUTS, Inc. voided the Amendment No. 1 by crossing through NOCUTS and writing in ACLS (All Clear Locating Services), which is the new operating entity for Asplun&s facility locating service in this area. Amendment No. 1, which has been redone to reflect the correct corporate name and proper signature blocks, needs to be signed by Indian River County. NOCUTS, Inc. and All Clear Locating Services, Inc. have developed an Assignment and Assumption of Agreement and have requested that Indian River County sign the Consent to that agreement RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board authorize the Chairman to sign the attached Consent document and the Amendment No. 1, which has been revised to show All Clear Locating Services, Inc. instead of NOCUTS, Inc.
