21620.  The provisions of this article shall apply to contracts by
the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District, as provided for in
Chapter 527 of the Statutes of 1977.



21621.  Any improvement or unit of work, when the cost, according to
the estimate of the engineer, will exceed ten thousand dollars
($10,000), shall be done by contract and shall be let to the lowest
responsible bidder or bidders in the manner provided in this article.
The board shall first determine whether the contract shall be let as
a single unit or shall be divided into severable parts, according to
the best interests of the district. The board shall call for bids
and advertise the call by publication pursuant to Section 6061.3 of
the Government Code in a newspaper of general circulation published
or circulated in the district, inviting sealed proposals for the
construction or performance of the improvement or work before any
contract is made. The call for bids shall state whether the work is
to be performed as a unit or is to be divided into parts, as stated
in the call. The board may let the work by single contract or it may
divide the work into parts by separate contracts, as stated in the
call.


21622.  The board shall require the successful bidder or bidders to
file with the board, good and sufficient bonds, to be approved by the
board conditioned upon the faithful performance of the contract and
upon the payment of their claims for labor and material in connection
therewith. Such contracts shall be subject to the provisions of
Title 15 (commencing with Section 3200) of Part 4 of Division 3 of

therewith. Such contracts shall be subject to the provisions of
Title 3 (commencing with Section 9000) of Part 6 of Division 4 of the
Civil Code.



21623.  The board shall also have the right to reject any and all
bids and readvertise for new bids, or by a two-thirds vote may elect
to undertake such work by force account. When no proposals are
received pursuant to advertisement therefor, or when the estimated
cost of such work does not exceed the sum of five thousand dollars
($5,000), or when the work consists of channel protection,
maintenance work, or emergency work necessary in order to protect
life and property from impending damage, the board may, without
advertising for bids therefor, have such work done by employees of
the district by day labor under the direction of the board, by
contract, or by a combination thereof. The district shall have the
power to acquire in the open market without advertising for bids
therefor, materials, equipment, and supplies for use in any work or
for any other purpose; provided, however, that materials and supplies
for use in any new construction work or improvement, except work
referred to in the preceding sentence, may not be purchased if the
cost thereof exceeds five thousand dollars ($5,000) without
advertising for bids and awarding the contract therefor to the lowest
responsible bidder.



21624.  In case of an emergency, if notice for bids to let contracts
will not be given, the board shall comply with Chapter 2.5
(commencing with Section 22050).
