construction of a portion of the Gisler-Redhill Trunk Improvements, Reach "B," Contract
No. 7-37, for an amount not to exceed $450,000, in a form approved by General
Counsel.
SUMMARY
The Irvine Ranch Water District is proposing to construct a discharge effluent line from
their water Well 21 and 22 Desalter Project to tie into the Orange County Sanitation
District's (Sanitation District) sewer located at the intersection of Edinger Avenue and
Redhill Avenue in the City of Tustin.
The Sanitation District is also currently designing the Gisler-Redhill Trunk Improvements
Reach "B" project located in the same vicinity of this heavily used and congested
intersection.
The proposed Reimbursement Agreement provides that IRWD's contractor for the Well
21 and 22 Desalter Project will also construct a portion of the Sanitation District's Gisler-
Redhill Trunk Improvement Reach "B" Sewer Project simultaneously. Performing the
work in this manner will minimize public impact and save costs.
The Sanitation District will reimburse IRWD for an amount not to exceed $450,000 to
cover construction and administrative costs, as well as any change orders associated
with the Sanitation District's Sewer Project.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: James D. Ruth, General Manager
Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance & Administrative Services
SUBJECT: Designation of Applicant's Agent for Disaster Relief
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 11-03 Authorizing the General Manager or Designee to Execute
State Office of Emergency Services and/or Federal Emergency Management Agency
Documents and Relevant Permit Applications for Present and Future Disaster Relief
Applications.
SUMMARY
The storms of December 2010 and January 2011 caused the water level in Prado Dam
to peak at extremely high levels. The Army Corp of Engineers (ACOE) released water
to lower the level behind the dam, causing the cover over the Santa Ana River
Interceptor (SARI) line to erode. Three areas of immediate concern were identified by
District engineers, authorization for contracts to provide the services were approved,
and emergency operations commenced to provide cover for those areas of the pipeline.
Orange County was declared a federal disaster area by the President of the United
States. Staff has applied for State and Federal grant funding to reimburse us for storm-
related repairs to the SARI line. Staff seeks a Board resolution authorizing the General
Manager or Designee to apply for funds on behalf of the District. This designation
remains in effect for 3 years from the date of the resolution.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
The prior resolution specifying the designation for this purpose was passed and
approved by the Joint Boards of Directors on January 28, 1998.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Santa Ana Watershed Protection Agency (SAWPA) is responsible for an agreed-
upon portion of the cost of repairs under various agreements. SAWPA will be billed for
its portion of the repairs, and upon receipt of State and/or Federal Emergency
Page 1 of 2
assistance funds in the same proportion will be reimbursed to SAWPA. Any funds
received for administrative costs will be retained by the District.
Emergency repairs commenced 12/27/10 and were completed by 1/3/11. Subsequent
repairs and monitoring were required as additional areas of scour were discovered.
Cost of the repairs is estimated at $425,000, of which the federal assistance would be
75%, the state share 18.75%, and the District share 6.25%.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: James D. Ruth, General Manager
Originator: Jim Herberg, Assistant General Manager
CIP Project Manager: Pamela Koester
SUBJECT: OUTFALL LAND SECTION REHABILITATION, PROJECT NO. J-112
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the General Manager to negotiate an amendment to the Professional
Services Agreement with Black and Veatch for additional design services for the Outfall
Land Section and Ocean Outfall Booster Station Piping Rehabilitation, Project
No. J-112.
SUMMARY
Project No. J-112 was originally scoped to perform a corrosion evaluation of the Ocean
Outfall Booster Station (OOBS) piping and portions of the ocean outfall pipeline within
Treatment Plant No. 2, and to design needed repairs to these facilities.
Staff has identified additional outfall evaluation and design efforts necessary to ensure
reliable continued operation of the effluent conveyance system. It is recommended that
the efforts representing the most risk to the Orange County Sanitation District
(Sanitation District) be added to Project No. J-112 in order to mitigate the risk of an
outfall system failure in a timely fashion. These efforts include the following:
• Design and construct a temporary flow meter and sampling station on the one-mile
outfall.
• Design and construct repairs to Surge Tower No. 2 including recoating and
instrumentation rehabilitation, installation of permanent flow meter, and repairs to the
steel access risers on the five-mile (primary) outfall.
• Design and construct repairs to the effluent junction structure located on the beach
adjacent to the Santa Ana River.
• Inspect, design, and construct appropriate rehabilitation measures for the on-shore
segment of the five-mile outfall.
• Prepare contingency plans for inspection and construction of the on-shore portion of
the five-mile outfall and beach junction structure.
Page 1 of 3
SUMMARY (cont'd)
• Prepare environmental documentation for the rehabilitation of the beach junction
structure.
Black and Veatch has done an excellent job in inspecting the outfall segment
downstream of OOBS, designing appropriate rehabilitation measures and preparing
contingency plans for inspection and construction. They are in the best position to
quickly address the rehabilitation of critical facilities that are at risk of failure via an
amendment to their existing Professional Design Services Agreement (PDSA).
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
December 2009 — Approved a Professional Design Services Agreement with Black and
Veatch for Outfall Land Section and Ocean Outfall Booster Station Piping Rehabilitation,
Project No. J-112, providing for engineering design services for an amount not to
exceed $1,271 ,814 with a contingency of$127,181 (10%).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Since the inception of the Sanitation District Asset Management Division, considerable
effort has been spent identifying the various outfall assets which should receive
condition assessment and potential rehabilitation. These assets have been grouped
into a series of Capital Improvements Program (CIP) projects. It is suggested that the
assets posing the greatest risk to the continued reliable operation of the effluent
conveyance system be addressed first. Project No. J-112 is currently addressing
rehabilitation of the on-shore portion of the outfall pipeline between OOBS and Surge
Tower No. 2. Staff believes that including the following asset condition assessment and
rehabilitation efforts are logical and timely extensions of this project:
• Install flow metering and sampling equipment on the one-mile outfall. This is
necessary to allow the Sanitation District to meter and sample the effluent when the
five-mile outfall is taken out of service for inspection.
• Rehabilitate Surge Tower No. 2 components, provide a new permanent flow meter,
and rehabilitate steel access risers on the five-mile outfall. The surge tower is over
25 years old and needs general rehabilitation. Taking the five-mile outfall out of
service makes this effort possible. The current flow meter needs to be replaced with
more current technology that is serviceable. It is important to inspect and
rehabilitate the risers on the five-mile outfall to ensure integrity of the connections.
• Rehabilitate the effluent junction structure on an interim basis to ensure integrity of
the structure and minimize the risk of any unexpected discharges from the structure.
• Inspect and rehabilitate the on-shore portion of the five-mile outfall.
Page 2 of 3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (cont'd)
• Provide appropriate contingency plans and environmental documents to support
these rehabilitation efforts.
Staff expects to complete the design and construction of the additional efforts by the
end of 2012 along with the current scope of work for Project No. J-112. This is at least
one year sooner than could be accomplished if the Sanitation District were to issue a
Request for Proposal and select a new consultant for the additional work.
Black and Veatch has done an excellent and thorough job in executing this project to
date. Staff believes they are in the best position to perform the additional work in a
