As of the 6-month period ending December 31, 2007, 47 projects have been canceled and 53 new projects have been added. Twenty projects have not started or are on hold. Thirty-six projects have been completed and closed since program inception. The projects are categorized by status and phase as follows: Project Status since Program Inception Active Projects Distributed by Phase Number of Number of Projects Current Phase Pr.jr,,t, At Program Inception(FY03/04) 125 1 -Project Development 21 Added as of December 31,2007 53 2-Preliminary Design 5 Canceled as of December 31,2007 (47) 3-Design 9 Not Started or On Hold (20) 4-Construction and Installation 21 Closed/Completed (36) 5-Commissioning 5 6.Closeout 14 Active Projects as of December 31,2007 75 Active Proieds as of December 31,2007 75 Program Metrics Three key metrics were put in place to ensure that the best processes and tools are used, most-qualified staff are in place, and work is tracked accurately. These metrics consist of the Program Budget, Milestones, and Program Cash Flows. Milestones are the 14 critical dates in project schedules that allow management to view how the projects and overall program are progressing. Cash Flow measures how the money is spent compared to Board-approved CIP fiscal year commitment. Program Budget The initial Engineering CIP budget in July 2003 was $2,878,119,055. During budget development for the four years FY04/05, FY05/06, FY06/07, and FY07/08, new projects added costs of $90,505,393, $125,433,850, $76,740,795 and $12,394,576, Table 1-1: Engineering CIP Budget Recap respectively.

Table 1-5 shows projects that are scheduled to start between January 1, 2008, and June 30, 2008. Program Cash Flows Cash flow reports track actual expenditures compared to those in the plan. At the beginning of each fiscal year, the cash expenditures for the next fiscal year are forecasted based on the master schedule. The fiscal year budget establishes the planned expenditures for the 12-month reporting period. Figure 1-2 shows the 10-year expenditure trend (Budget versus Actual) for the annual budgets to date. The FY07108 expenditures of 101 percent versus plan will achieve the cash flow metric of 95 percent or better. Since inception of the Program Management Office (PMO) in July 2003, this will be the fifth year the PMO will achieve this metric.

Closed projects, which are projects that have been completed, show a cumulative savings of $72,830,542 in comparison to their originally approved budgets. The total reduction resulting from canceled and closed projects is valued at$536,499,570. • Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 Table 1-8: Closed and Canceled Projects Project Initiated Status Fiscal Year Project Canceled or Closeout 2003/2004 Canceled $467,382,509 $21,958,257 $(445,424,252) Closed $160,832,639 $84,137,964 $(76.694,675) 2003/2004 Total $628,215,148 $106.096,221 $(522,118,927) 2004/2005 Canceled $12.174757 $429,799 $(11744.958) Closed $500A00 _ $1,414.332 $914,332 2004/2005 Total $12,674,757 _$1 844_131 $(10,830,626) 20D512006 Canceled $6.514,060 $10.581 $(6,503,479) Closed $- _ $2,949.801 _ $2.949.801 200612006 Total $6,514,060 $2,960382 $(3,553,678) 2006/2007 Canceled $- $3,651 $3,661 Closed $- & S- 200612007Total $- $3,661 $3,661 Program Initiatives and Achievements The CIP team continues to develop and maintain tools and processes to assist project teams in project management and technical work. In many areas, this effort enables achievement and recognition for the District within the industry. The article below highlights recognition that the District recently received and describes the achievements that lead to this recognition. The District Wins Primavera Excellence Award As the District committed to this multibillion-dollar Capital Improvement Program, it was clear that the implementation of project control processes and tools would be necessary and beneficial to program success. Since initiation of the Program in 2002, the organization has implemented, operated, and made continuous improvement to its practices and tools used for project monitoring and control, including those relating to project initiation/set-up, budgeting, scheduling, resource planning and reporting. To help answer needs related to project budget and schedule control, the District incorporated the use of Primavera project and portfolio management software linked to a web-based information portal. This system is known as the Program Control System (PCS). The PCS has been in place for almost 5 years and the District has established systematic and rigorous methods for managing capital projects using its reporting, tracking, and predicting capabilities, Experience has shown that the District's methodology and processes are working extremely well, enabling 2007 Excellence Award Presented to the District in October Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 '-• effective monitoring and control of project schedules and expenditures and helping engineering and construction staff to improve project management and forecasting capabilities. Use of PCS further enables project team members and District supervisory staff to make timely and cost-effective decisions. Although the District has expanded PCS to include various tools (progress and status reporting, change control, lessons learned, permit tracking, team contact information, the Construction Dashboard, Board, Operations Committee and GM approval calendars, and other tools and links), the District has maximized its value by effective and consistent use of Primavera software. At its 24th Annual Primavera Conference, held in October 2007, Primavera Systems, Inc., recognized the District as a leading organization, achieving outstanding results in project, program, and portfolio management. As part of this recognition, the District was presented a 2007 Primavera Excellence Award. Also at the Primavera Conference, members of the District's Program Management Office presented a keynote presentation entitled "Implementation of State-of-the-Art Primavera-Based Project Controls System Supporting the OCSD CIP." This recognition and participation has brought light to the fact that the District is not only using state-of-the-art technology, but is also further developing the industry's best practices. dt t.

This decision entails a reduction in the levels of biochemical oxygen demand and total suspended solids in the ocean effluent discharge to levels that comply with the secondary treatment requirements of the Clean Water Act. The current Ocean Discharge permit became effective on October 31, 2004. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) issued the permit. Immediately following the effective date of the permit, EPA and the RWQCB lodged a settlement of litigation against the District in the form of a Consent Decree, which describes an interim compliance process that contains construction milestones and interim effluent limitations until the District achieves compliance with secondary treatment requirements by December 2012. Table 2-1, Secondary Treatment Consent Decree Milestone Status, shows the Consent Decree milestone dates and the current status for each project.

Located on 10 acres of land at the south end of Plant 1, the project includes six aeration basins, six circular clarifiers, a blower building and a power building. A major portion of the upgraded effluent from this project will be reclaimed for groundwater recharge by the Orange County Water District (OCWD) Groundwater Replenishment System and the balance of the effluent will be used to improve the quality of plant effluent discharged to the ocean. During the preliminary design phase, the decision was made to master plan the project site for 80 million gallons per day (mgd). However, at this time, the project is constructing 60 mgd of capacity. Design was completed in September 2006 and Notice to Proceed with construction was issued in June 2007. The construction contract is $210 million and has a 6-year duration. Between July and December 2007, the Contractor fully mobilized for the project and initiated construction activities. Soils dewatering was performed and approximately 240,000 cubic yards (cy) of earth was removed from the site. With mass excavation completed, the Contractor installed approximately 50 percent of the 6,600 driven concrete piles required for structural foundations. The Contractor also submitted a schedule for execution and completion of the project for project management approval. Between January and June 2008, the schedule requires that the Contractor complete installation of the pile foundation system and construct approximately 50 percent of the concrete structures. Approval of mechanical and electrical equipment will be completed during this time and planning will begin for the commissioning process. Phase 1 of project WE- I Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 commissioning is scheduled to begin in February 2011. Construction completion is scheduled for June 2012. Rehabilitation of the Activated Sludge Plant at Plant 2 (P2-74) I sm M� W. �7 2WO 2. .1. 2 3 4 ��TM TW V The P2-74 project provides for the rehabilitation of the Activated Sludge Plant at Plant 2. Although this project does not add additional capacity for secondary treatment, it does add the necessary improvements to provide reliability and redundancy to the existing secondary treatment system. The major work elements include replacement of aerator impellers, replacement of sluice gates, recoating of large-diameter piping, replacement of scum and inlet gate actuators, addition of odor control and replacement of small process piping. The construction contract is $10 million and has a two year duration. Most of the equipment installation was completed over the past 6 months. In addition, the Contractor performed three confined space entries into the 120-inch Primary Effluent Pipeline for the purpose of sandblasting and recoating. This work was performed successfully and enabled the District to delay replacement of this large and critical pipeline for 15 years. During the past 6 months, the Contractor also prepared and began implementation of a Commissioning Plan to test the newly installed equipment and place it back into service. The Commissioning of P2-74 is going smoothly and no delays are anticipated. The Contractor will complete all Commissioning activities in the next few months. Construction completion is scheduled for April 2008, well ahead of its January 009 Consent Decree date.

This construction contract is $180 million and has a 4.5-year duration, Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 Between July and December 2007, the Contractor performed work associated with ground preparation and foundation placement. These activities included extensive grading operations, removal of excess soils and installation/operation of a complex soils dewatering system. The soil removal operations necessitated the use of large numbers of truck haulers, and the Contractor did an excellent job of mitigating potential problems with proper dust control and continuous street sweeping. Once the excavation was complete and the dewatering system in place, the Contractor began installing the below-grade foundation pile system that will support the structures. The foundation system will prevent the heavily weighted structures from sinking into the ground, as well as provide structural restraint during a seismic event. The Contractor has also made progress in preparing hundreds of equipment submittals. The work activities for the first half of 2008 will include completion of all foundation pile installation and pouring of concrete for lower elevation duct banks and structures. In addition, the Contractor will continue preparation of equipment submittals and receive shipment of ordered materials. In coordination with the Engineering Department, the District's Public Information Office communicated proactively with residents neighboring Plant 2 and with other stakeholders prior to the start of construction. To provide project status updates, the Public Information Office continues to meet regularly with the City of Huntington Beach and mail construction update flyers to neighboring residents. Both the Engineering Department and the Public Information Office have placed a high priority on open and continuous communication with Plant 2 neighbors and stakeholders to ensure good working relationships for the duration of the P2-90 construction.

Main elements of the project include digester cleaning and rehabilitation; replacement of sludge pumps, boilers, heat exchangers and piping; upgrade of electrical and control systems; and improvement to miscellaneous structural, mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation and control (W) systems. Program Mid-Year Report— FY07/08 Page The design consultant has finalized the Engineering Study Report (conceptual design) and Condition Assessment/Asset Management Evaluation Report, has completed the preliminary design including submittal of the final draft Preliminary Design Report, and has made progress in preparing the final design. As of the end of December, the construction documents (drawings and specifications) were approximately 20 percent complete. Detailed design, including preparation of construction documents, will continue through the next reporting period. By the end of June 2008, construction documents will be approximately 75 percent complete. Sludge Dewatering and Odor Control at Plant 1 (P1 -101) Project No. P1-101 pertains to installation of a new sludge thickening system, replacement of the existing digested sludge dewatering system, and replacement of ' existing solids area odor control systems. New systems will be state-of-the-art, including centrifuges for sludge thickening and dewatering and three-stage scrubbers for odor control. A new building will be constructed to house the new systems and the Solids Storage Facility will be modified for improved odor containment. The project includes rehabilitation, upgrade, replacement and/or addition of associated sludge pumping, cake conveyance, chemical feed, ventilation and miscellaneous other structural, mechanical, electrical and control systems. Since July 2007, the design consultant finalized preparation the Engineering Study Report (conceptual design) and initiated preparation of the Preliminary Design Report for proposed permanent dewatering and odor control facilities. The consultant also continued testing for optimization of the existing belt presses, to maximize their capacity, and initiated design of temporary facilities for diversion of sludge to Plant 2. Optimization of existing facilities and construction of the temporary sludge diversion facilities is necessary to assure the District's capability to treat sludge during the upcoming period when additional wastewater is diverted to Plant 1 for treatment but proposed thickening, dewatering and digestion (P1-100) facilities are not yet constructed and/or commissioned. By the end of June 2008, the Preliminary Design Report will be approximately 80 percent complete, testing for optimization of existing dewatering systems will be complete, implementation of optimization measures will be underway, and design and bidding for sludge diversion facilities will be compete. Facilities Engineering Projects The Reclamation Plant 1 Facilities Engineering (FE) is a miscellaneous small capital improvement program related to plant safety, reliability, or improvements where the professional design consulting services are less than $100,000.

This 5-year, $194 million project consists of 15 different structures and associated piping that provide a point of entry for the trunk sewers, combining their flow and providing preliminary treatment. The new headworks has a 340-million-gallon-per-day (mgd) peak wet weather flow capacity, and includes an extensive odor control system consisting of bio-tower scrubbing technology followed by conventional chemical scrubbers. During the past 6-month period, the Contractor completed $32 million worth of construction, bringing total project completion to 77 percent. Structural work is Program Mid-Year Report— FY07/08 Page 15 95 percent complete on both the reinforced concrete process facilities and the support facilities, including the steel framed Odor Control structures. Craft workers continued activities in the interior of these buildings by installing electrical items, small diameter utility pipes, and the ventilation systems. Major system components were factory tested and shipped to the project site including the 68-mgd Main Sewage Pumps (Japan), 700-hp variable frequency drives (Canada), and the pump motors (Brazil). Significant progress was made in the yard area surrounding the project site, with the installation of large-diameter fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) duct (Odor Control), as well as r smaller diameter pipe to convey stormwater, and plant utilities (PW, RW, ilk HVAC). Excavation and r installation of electrical and signal manholes and duct kar banks continued in preparation for pulling new wire.

(foreground)and grit handling building(top center of photo) Electrical and mechanical activities will continue inside and outside the structures. Installation of major mechanical systems begins with the installation of the Main Sewage Pumps and Motors in the basement of Building 5. The remaining major mechanical process components (bar screens, screenings washer, and vortex grit removal equipment) will be factory tested and shipped to the job site. Major electrical and instrument components including the switchgear, motor control centers and remote 1/0 panels will be completed, factory tested, and delivered to the project site for installation. Operational acceptance of the facility is expected in the fall of 2010, with final project completion scheduled for mid-2011. Primary Treatment Rehabilitation Refurbishment at Plant 2 (P2-80) This project replaces the existing sludge pumps with new sludge pumps and grinders in order to provide a more uniform sludge to the digesters. The new sludge pumps and grinders are an integral part of the new sludge feed system being installed as part Page 16 Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 of project P2-91. This new system will increase reliability, be more flexible, and will provide a more uniform sludge to the digesters. In addition to the abovementioned work, this project upgrades the scum system and provides for rehabilitation and refurbishment of the concrete and steel in the primary clarifiers. This work will provide better operability and reliability of the primary t r . s clarifiers. NTP for ` construction was issued 'e on July 11, 2007. Construction of this ` project has been combined with project a P2-91 because of the construction ties and a symbiotic relationship between the two. Rehabilitation of Pump Rooms D and E has begun. All existing Work being performed at Clarifiers U anJ E.New electrical room above equipment has been pump room D and removed. The new electrical building has been constructed and the concrete work for the new scum system has been started. During demolition of the pump room equipment, it was discovered that repairs of the pump room ceiling are required. This work has been started and is nearing completion. The work for Clarifiers D and E is expected to be complete by the end of May 2008 and work will begin on Clarifiers F and G during the commissioning phase of D and E. Sludge Digester Rehabilitation at Plant 2 (P2-91 ) The digesters at Plant 2 have been in continuous operation for many years. The existing digester sludge feed system (primary sludge and thickened waste activated sludge) has undergone several expansions and modifications. Because of growth and additional demands, operation has surpassed its original intent and the system is now experiencing some operational shortfalls. One of the shortfalls relates to difficulty in determining quantities of sludge pumped to each digester. Another relates to the inability to pump sludge from any bank of primary clarifiers to any digester. At times, this deficiency imposes serious operational limitations. The purpose of this project is Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 Page 17 to correct the hydraulic limitations and provide the ability to pump appropriate sludge quantities to each digester. The scope of work includes the construction of two sludge-blending tanks, pumps, piping systems, and controls to route primary sludge from any clarifier bank to any digester bank. NTP for construction was issued on July 11, 2007. Construction of this project has been combined with P2-80 because of the construction ties and a symbiotic relationship �1 .f� •• .pi;•t��p between the two. Site preparation of the Sludge-Blending Facility and the Electrical Building wyy� has begun, and most of the piping demolition in 21 the tunnels is complete. The demolition of existing abandoned piping is nearing completion. This t. work will make room for the new piping that will convey the sludge from Excavation for the Electrical Building showing discharge point the clarifiers t0 the for dewatering digesters. From January to June 2008 work is expected to continue on the tunnels, finishing the piping demolition and starting the installation of new pipe. The Sludge Blending Facility and Electrical Building are expected to be approximately 40 percent complete. As mentioned above, this project has ties to P2-80. The P2-80 work is the schedule driver, so this work is not critical path. Facilities Engineering Projects The Treatment Plant 2 FE project is a miscellaneous, small capital improvement program related to plant safety, reliability, or improvements where the professional design consulting services are less than $100,000. These smaller, high priority projects are individually tracked within the larger budget for procurement of engineering and contractor services as needed to maintain reliable operations. Since July 2007, three projects have been completed and four projects are currently in design. Page 18 Program Mid-Year Report— FY07/08 COLLECTJONJS Collections projects include the improvement, replacement and rehabilitation of sewers • and pump stations to correct existing problems and increase system capacity to handle future flow projections. These projects require District staff to coordinate with Number various municipal, regulatory, and transportation agencies, utility companies, commercial of Active businesses, and private citizens. As a result, these projects are at greater risk of schedule delay than are projects constructed within the treatment plant boundaries. 30 Design:Construction Mellon itift cts , FEC Finloses Entypeorm,- Chile M.L.

Gisler — Redhill Trunk Relocation (7-32-1) Project 7-32-1 modifies a portion of the Gisler-Redhill trunk sewer on the west side of the 55/405 Freeway interchange to provide for capacity relief to the College Avenue Pump Station. The flows within the portion of the existing sewer south of Main Street and under the 405 Freeway will be diverted to the Main Street Pump Station, thereby reducing flows to the College Avenue Pump Station. This will eliminate the need to expand the College Avenue Pump Station, which does not i r have space for modification. Construction of the main pipeline, including tunneling for the tie-in to the Main Street 66-inch trunk line, the _ diversion and vortex structures, and the pavement restoration and striping of the John Wayne Airport parking lot have all been completed ahead of schedule. The __ - -- — District has taken beneficial occupancy of the facilities and has been working closely with the contractor to rectify a Construction of the main pipeline spilling issue with the vortex unit. Through April 2008, the contractor will be working with the Vortex manhole insert manufacturer to rectify operational issues with the unit, and the design consultant will complete preparation of the record drawings. Thereafter, the project will enter the closeout phase for completion. Facilities Engineering Projects The Collection Facilities Engineering capital project is defined as a miscellaneous capital improvement related to safety, reliability, or improvements where the professional design consulting services are less than $100,000. These smaller, high priority projects are individually tracked within the larger budget for procurement of engineering and contractor services as needed to maintain reliable operations. Since July 2007, one project has been completed, three projects are in construction, and five projects are in the design phase. - r Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 � �JANTER JM�ANAGE'MNENJ The Water Management subprogram is composed of three projects, the largest being the No,bbor Groundwater Replenishment (GWR) System (J-36).

The project can also provide up to 100 million gallons per day of peak storm flow relief from OCSD's outfall system. The GWR System uses a three-step purification process that includes microfiltration, reverse osmosis, and ultraviolet light with hydrogen peroxide, which results in near-distilled-quality water. Multiple construction contracts were issued to build the Advanced Water Purification Facility (AWPF), pipelines and injection wells, all of which are complete, except the AWPF contract. Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 Page 21 On August 8, 2007, OCSD Operations staff opened the gate to allow secondary effluent to flow to the GWR System for continuation of testing activities for the AWPF. By December, all of the processes were essentially functioning as designed. In December, water quality samples of the purified water were taken and analyzed. The results were provided to the State Department of Public Health (DPH) to gain approval to start delivery of the water to the aquifer. OCWD expects to gain DPH approval in January 2008 to start injecting the water into the seawater intrusion barrier and percolating the water at the spreading basins in Anaheim. Construction will be completed with OCWD taking over the operation of the GWR System. A dedication ceremony will be held in January. i Reverse Osmosis Facility Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 JOINT WORKS ORKS AND SPECIAL PROJECTS oint Works projects are projects that benefit both Plant 1 and Plant 2. These projects include the renovation of existing facilities, as well as the construction of new facilities. They involve mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation and control systems, as well as the structures that house these systems. Work is under way on 12 such projects. A significant project that will set the path for future capital improvements is the Strategic Plan Update. This project is described below.

The purpose of the Strategic Plan Update is to review the Sanitation District collection, treatment, and Program Mid-Year Report — FY07/08 Page 23 disposal system to establish a comprehensive plan for managing peak wastewater flows and to protect public health through the year 2030 in a technically feasible, economical, and environmentally responsible manner. The following graphic shows the relationship that this Strategic Plan Update has to other to other OCSD planning efforts and to the Capital Improvement Program. Strategic Plan Update's Link to the Business Plan The current effort is specific to the District treatment and disposal system and is generally guided by the following objectives: ■ Compliance with regulations and or policies that affect level of treatment and service requirements, including effluent quality, biosolids disposal, air emissions, odor control, and GWR System quality. ■ Ensuring adequate treatment and disposal system capacity to manage projected peak wastewater flows. ■ Managing treatment and disposal system assets to ensure that their conditions are adequately maintained and upgraded in a timely and cost-effective manner. The Strategic Plan Update is being led by Division 740. For the period between July 1 and December 31, 2007, significant progress was made in preparing document sections for the major treatment process areas, in addition to development of flow projections and _ anticipated future capacity requirements. The - Strategic Plan Update Main Group was also r chartered and is composed of a broad technical - team of staff representing the interests of Technical .. Services, Engineering, and Operations and Ak Maintenance. The Main Group has reviewed and provided comments on several important sections to the Strategic Plan Update. By July 2008, it is expected that sections for all the major treatment process areas will be completed and reviewed by the Main Group, that comments will be St.tegie planning session incorporated, and that final drafts of these sections will be prepared. Facilities Engineering Projects The Joint FE small capital project is defined as a miscellaneous capital improvement related to plant safety, reliability, or improvements, covering more than one facility or the District as a whole, where the professional design consulting services are less than $100,000. These smaller, high-priority projects are individually tracked within the larger budget for procurement of engineering and contractor services as needed to maintain reliable operations. Since July 2007, one project has been completed and three projects are in design.

Ruth, General Manager Originator: Nick Arhontes, Director of Operations and Maintenance SUBJECT: CORROSION STANDARDS UPDATE GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION 1) Approve a Professional Services Consultant Agreement with Boyle Engineering for the Corrosion Standards Update, Specification No. CS-2007-344BD in an amount not to exceed $291,445; and, 2) Approve a 19% contingency ($55,374). SUMMARY • The purpose of this joint venture project with the engineering department is to provide OCSD with general corrosion control engineering standards that are consistent and can be modified to fit specific needs for projects. The consultant will review OCSD Engineering Standards, consisting of standard drawings, specifications, and Design Guidelines and revise as needed, or write new specifications, and generate new drawings to suit OCSD requirements. • A standard Request for Proposal was used to solicit proposals from a total of 14 consulting firms. Six consulting firms attended a pre-proposal meeting at OCSD offices:Akal Consultants, Black &Veatch, Boyle Engineering, Corrpro Companies, Schiff Associates, and V&A Consulting Engineers. Two consulting firms submitted proposals, Boyle Engineering (teamed with Schiff Associates) and V&A Consulting Engineers (teamed with Black and Veatch) of which the Boyle Engineering proposal was deemed responsive. V&A was deemed non-responsive. • The Boyle proposal was evaluated in accordance with defined OCSD procedures and staff recommends the approval of a Professional Service Agreement (PSA) with Boyle Engineering. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS None Book Page 9 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION • Corrosion control is an integral part of designing new and replacement facilities and has historically consisted of coating application, material selection, and cathodic protection. Recent capital improvement projects as well as on-going maintenance requirements necessitates the need for effective proactive maintenance programs for corrosion control starting at the design phase for both new construction as well as maintenance projects. • The consultant will contact similar-sized west-coast waste water agencies to collect information regarding extent of corrosion control utilized by each agency and incorporate their experiences for consideration into the OCSD Engineering Standards. • Value engineering analysis will be conducted wherein examples will be investigated comparing the cost of using coated carbon steel with cathodic protection versus the use of bare stainless steel or other inherently corrosion resistant materials. • The consultant will additionally develop a matrix to reflect OCSD specific corrosion control requirements for soil corrosivity, providing references for all cited corrosion control action levels and will integrate the matrix into the Engineering Standards. Staff Evaluation of Proposals A total of five OCSD evaluators, selected from a cross section of work disciplines in O&M and Engineering, ranked the proposal as either meeting or exceeding OCSD requirements. A presentation was requested of Boyle Engineering and their sub- consultant to allow the evaluators to further assess their abilities and to clarify any outstanding questions regarding qualifications, work plan, and experience. The specialized nature of the work requires a consultant that is familiar with the specification and standards update process and the Boyle Engineering team possesses these abilities, including a licensed waste water treatment plant Grade V operator with their sub-consultant Roberson Water Consulting, as well as a long working history with their corrosion sub-consultant Schiff Associates. This project has been budgeted and is funded under SP-68-1, Corrosion Management. Project is scheduled to take 11 months to complete all work.

Ruth, General Manager Jim Herberg, Director of Engineering SUBJECT: COOPERATIVE PROJECTS GRANTS PROGRAM GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION 1. Approve Amendment No. 1 to Cooperative Projects Grants Program Contract No. 0502 with City of Newport Beach, providing for an 18-month time extension with no expanded scope of work, and no increase of grant funding; and, 2. Approve Amendment No. 2 to Cooperative Projects Grants Program Contract No. 0602 with Garden Grove Sanitary District, providing for a six-month time extension. SUMMARY • The Cooperative Projects Grants Program (Program) provides funds to local agencies for projects that reduce or eliminate inflow and infiltration (1/1) to the sewer collection system. • The City of Newport Beach (City) requests Amendment No. 1 to Cooperative Projects Grants Program Contract No. 0502 to provide for an 18-month time extension and an increase in project scope and grant funding. • The Garden Grove Sanitary District (Sanitary District) requests Amendment No. 2 to Cooperative Projects Grants Program Contract No. 0602 to provide for a six-month time extension to complete the project. • In FY 05/06, the Orange County Sanitation District's (OCSD) Program budget was reduced to fulfill its obligation to only outstanding grants. Therefore, funds are not available under the current budget for new requests or expanded scopes of work. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS In July 2006, the Board of Directors approved $322,710 in grant funds to the City and $300,000 to the Sanitary District in December 2006. Form No.waloax awi.ea oaplrol X Ce hm MpsmtM.200MODN613,Cwp P JWs x Page 1 Book Page 15 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Cooperative Projects Grants are paid to local agencies on a reimbursement basis after project completion. The total amount of grant reimbursements provided to member agencies since 1999 through the Program is approximately$23.1 million. City of Newport Beach The City has been identified as having a significant 1/1 problem by OCSD long-term flow monitoring efforts. Cooperative Grants Project No. 502 (CP-502) consists of updating the City Sewer Master Plan, and providing for a capital improvement and I/1 reduction plan to minimize 1/1 into the City's sewer system. As part of this effort, closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection, condition assessment, and wet-weather flow monitoring will be conducted to identify and prioritize corrective projects. The City has requested an 18-month time extension to complete the wet-weather flow monitoring which could not be captured the previous year, due to the lack of precipitation in 2006/07. The City is also requesting to expand CP-502 project scope to increase the amount of CCTV, flow monitoring, and conditioned assessment. The expanded scope would increase the existing CCTV inspection from 50,000 LF to 150,000 LF, condition assessment from 250,000 LF to 350,000 LF. If the expanded scope is approved, the grant funding for this Contract would increase from $322,710 to $457,836. Amendment No. 1 to the CP-502 will provide for the additional time to complete the flow monitoring, expand the scope, and reduce 1/I at both the local and regional levels of the sewer system. Approximately 70% of the City's sewer system has been televised as of December 18, 2007, and it is possible that additional precipitation can be captured for FY 08/09. Thus far, the City has conducted 200-feet of CCTV with no cost sharing request to OCSD. In reviewing the overall benefits to OCSD, staff is recommending that an18-month time extension to CP-502 be considered for approval, with no additional increase in project scope or grant funding. Garden Grove Sanitary District The Sanitary District has been identified as having a localized inflow problem by the OCSD long-term flow monitoring efforts. Under Cooperative Project No. 602 (CP-602), the Sanitary District is to conduct a condition assessment of 400,000 feet of sewer system utilizing CCTV, formulate corrective projects for the deficient sewers, and update their Capital Improvement Program. Under Amendment No. 1 to CP-602, the work was to be completed by December 31, 2007. In mid-January, the Sanitary District requested a six-month time extension to reevaluate the condition assessment and ranking of its sewers. Fom No.o ioax Nvm WuTfflf MMMWt�R^�mCmmXw'OVar� 311N`D104C6f�1,9pT' 4c Page 2 Book Page 16 Apparently, the Sanitary District's contractor performed an inadequate assessment and the sewers were ranked to below industry standards; the reassessment and ranking of these sewers will delay project completion. Based on this minor time extension, OCSD staff is recommending that a six-month time extension to CP-602 be considered for approval.

C-2003-143 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A) Approve the renewal of Purchase Order No. 101758-OB for the purchase of Cationic Polymer, Specification No. C-2003-143, issued to Polydyne Inc., with a unit rate increase of$0.13 per active pound for Solution Polymer increasing the total price to $1.88 per active pound plus tax, and a unit rate increase in Mannich Polymer of$0.153, increasing the total price to $1.682 per active pound plus tax, for an estimated amount of$1,950,000 for the period July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009. B) Authorize a 10% contingency. SUMMARY • Polydyne, Inc. was awarded a one-year contract to provide cationic polymer after competitive bidding based on performance trials with different polymers from five vendors. The contract includes a provision for four one-year contract renewals if mutually acceptable contract terms can be negotiated. • The total contract cost will increase from $1,379,200 to $1,950,000 due to the anticipated increase in usage for the increase in secondary treatment in addition to the increase in unit cost. • Staff has reviewed the information Polydyne, Inc. provided documenting increases in raw material costs, and staff has determined the proposed cost is reasonable. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS • In fiscal year 2003, Polydyne was awarded a one-year contract (2004-2005) for the amount of$900,000, which was increased with a change order to $913,000 because of the higher approved budget amount for solution polymer. • The contract was amended on September 22, 2004 to include both solution and mannich polymer and the amount was increased with two change orders to $1,538,000 to cover expenses for unanticipated polymer use during that year. Forth No.O IM0 Rvie 0] W Page 1 Book Page 20 The contract was renewed for fiscal year 2006-07 for an increase in unit cost of $0.70 per active pound for Solution Polymer for a total unit cost of$1.75. The Mannich Polymer unit cost increased $0.249 for a total unit cost of $1.529 per active pound. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION • Cationic polymer is used for thickening secondary sludge before digestion and for dewatering biosolids. There are two types of cationic polymer used at the Sanitation District: solution polymer and mannich polymer. • Solution polymer is used at Plant No. 1 to thicken waste activated sludge. The solution polymer requires a higher dose rate and is necessary to limit NDMA formation for the OCWD Ground Water Replenishment System.

Ruth, General Manager Originator: Ed Torres, Director of Technical Services SUBJECT: Emerging Issue: Climate Change and Greenhouse Gas Emissions GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION: Informational item only SUMMARY • The study of climate change and its potential impacts on the environment has grown from the confines of academic research to international prominence over the last decade. In 2006 California passed new legislation the California Global Warming Solutions Act(AS 32)which requires manmade emissions of greenhouse gases to be reduced to 1990 levels by 2020. At the federal level, ten's of bills have been introduced on climate change and there is a strong belief that federal climate change legislation will become law in the next Congress. In addition, EPA's Office of Water is finalizing a strategy for climate change impacts. • POTW organizations like NACWA, CASA and SCAP are becoming increasingly involved in climate change issues and OCSD is in the center of these efforts. • Staffs intent is to raise the awareness of the Board to the issue of Climate Change and how it may affect wastewater treatment facilities. A short presentation at the Operations Committee meeting will begin that process. As the regulatory landscape and the understanding of our contributions to and potential impacts from climate change are better defined we will seek policy direction from the Board on our Level of Service relative to climate change.
