REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 9/2/2008 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PW 08-063 Analysis: The City's proposed potable water Capital Improvement Program is approximately $12.8 million in FY 2008/09. Projects include the installation of new water mains, and corrosion control on more than 13 miles of the City's transmission mains. Design and construction engineering support for the myriad of projects is assigned to firms specializing in the various disciplines as it is not possible to complete the large workload using only City staff. It is beneficial to retain qualified firms for capital project design and engineering. Project assignments are rotated among the consultants, taking advantage of specializations. Proposals were requested and submitted in compliance with Chapter 3.03 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. The proposed new contracts allow for a three-year contract term with a total budget not to exceed $250,000 each consultant over the three-year contract term. Funding sources will be capital project accounts, using the approved project budgets. Public Works Commission Action: Not required. Strategic Plan Goal: 1-1 Improve the City's plan for funding and completing infrastructure needs, and develop strategies for resolving crucial infrastructure problems to preserve the physical foundation of the community and enable the community's value to grow.

Maintenance and Repair of Existing City Facilities Perform necessary repairs, maintenance or adjustments in the field to enable adequate testing or enhance the performance of existing infrastructure. 2 of 2 EXHIBIT A2 SCOPE OF WORK The primary objective of this project is to assist the City with the performance of corrosion engineering services associated with its major assets, such as, pipelines, reservoirs, pump stations and other water handling or transporting equipment. It is understood that specific tasks will be assigned on an "as-needed" basis and that they could include various services that may include field testing or trouble shooting, corrosion protection design, data assessment and management, and other corrosion engineering services. As a result of V&A's recent work with the City, we are aware of some of the pipeline projects that are on-going or in planning. These include bonding and cathodic protection projects on the 36- inch\42-inch Springdale and the 30-inch Yorktown Pipelines. V&A has also provided services to the City to assist in the development of a pipeline corrosion data management system. Accordingly, potential services that the City may include in the subject project include construction support, continuity testing, cathodic protection system activation, performance testing and continuation of database development. V&A would be prepared to provide the City with any of the other services that it provides to our water industry clients. APPROACH It is anticipated that some of the tasks will fall into the following categories: Field Services; Design and Document Preparation; and Corrosion Program and Database Development. V&A's approach, or standard procedures, for addressing projects within these three categories are described. 1. Field Services All field testing is done by qualified field engineers or technicians who work directly under a PE or Corrosion Specialist. V&A has written procedures and data sheets for common field tests. A preliminary meeting is held between the lead field technician and the engineer to review project objectives, the purpose for the testing, test procedures, equipment preparation and potential problem areas. Pre-field activities also include notification of the client's field representative, verification of site directions, permission to access and accessibility (locked gates or barriers). The vehicle and test equipment are prepared the day before the testing is scheduled. Safety is of primary importance to all field efforts. V&A personnel wear OSHA approved vests and hard hats if the work is at a construction site. Field vehicles are equipped with limited traffic control equipment, such as cones and flashers. Extraordinary traffic control is either provided by the client by pre-agreement or contracted out to a qualified firm. 1 of 3 EXHIBIT A2 Field data sheets are dated and signed by the technician and prepared for the file and the PM. Typically field testing tasks are culminated in a debriefing session with the PM and other team members. Corrosion Program and Database Development V&A developed the Corrosion Data Management System (CDMS) which is a database specifically designed for the unique conditions in the water and wastewater industries that V&A has observed in its nearly 30-year history. V&A's previous work with the City included the development of a City of Huntington Beach CDMS. The current City CDMS needs some additional enhancements and the addition of pipeline survey data that is now available to make it the primary tool for the City to evaluate the status of its corrosion protection system. 2. Preliminary Engineering Design and Document Preparation: Each task begins with communication with the client so that his or her goals are fully understood. Communication between V&A staff is also encouraged in order to produce fresh ideas. Each task also ends with communication through the generation of a field report, technical memo or submittals (i.e., drawings, specifications, cost estimates, etc.) to document deliverables and the completion of tasks. For each project, V&A assigns a qualified project manager who takes full charge of the work until it is complete and the account is closed. Design tasks often require coordination with a V&A design team, subconsultants or service providers and with client schedules. Calculations, drawings, specifications and critical correspondence goes through a QA\QC process involving three reviews, technical, clerical and principal, as described above. Design procedures also include file completion, document management and client follow-up steps. 3. Permits V&A will assist the City in obtaining approvals from applicable agencies for environmental and/or other permits as may be required. 4. Construction Documents V&A understands the requirements for preparing drawings and can comply with the requirements set out in the request for proposal. 5. Bidding Stage 2 of 3 EXHIBIT A2 V&A has experience in responding to bidders' questions and attending pre-bid conferences and job walks. V&A has reviewed the requirements set out in the RFP and can meet the requirements. 6. Construction Stage, 7. Construction Inspection and 8. Design/Build V&A provides various aspects of construction assistance. Communication and coordination are critical at the start of every project. V&A's qualified engineers and technicians are currently providing inspection services on cathodic protection and coatings projects. V&A has Design/Build project experience on projects over$2 million. 9. Maintenance and Repair of Existing City Facilities V&A has extensive experience in performing maintenance of corrosion control systems. Minor repairs are frequently made during testing to eliminate future site visits. 3 of 3 EXHIBIT B Payment Schedule(Fixed Fee Payment) 1. CONSULTANT shall be entitled to monthly payments toward the fees set forth herein in accordance with the following payment schedules.
