Subject: UPDATE ON GWRS FINAL EXPANSION PROJECT
SUMMARY
The GWRS Final Expansion Project is currently under construction by Shimmick
Construction Company to expand the Advanced Water Treatment Facility and construct
the GWRS pump station and flow equalization tanks at The Orange County Sanitation
District (OC San) Plant No. 2. In addition, updates on construction progress on the
Headworks Modification Project and Pipeline Rehabilitation Project will be presented.
RECOMMENDATION
Informational.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The GWRS Final Expansion Project is the build-out capacity of the GWRS facility that
treats secondary effluent from OC San to drinking water standards for groundwater
replenishment water. The current GWRS facility produces 100 MGD of purified water.
The build-out treatment capacity increases the water production to a total of 130 MGD.
OC San/OCWD completed a joint effluent reuse study (SP-173) in 2016 which analyzed
the project components required to facilitate the GWRS Final Expansion Project. With
the study complete, both agencies embarked on completing all the projects required to
meet the build-out capacity of 130 MGD as part of the GWRS Final Expansion Project.
To increase the amount of water produced from the GWRS facility, additional secondary
effluent from OC San must be conveyed to GWRS. With an analysis of average raw
wastewater inflows to OC San's two treatment plants, both OC San Plant No. 1 and
Plant No. 2 secondary effluent is required to meet the 130 MGD GWRS production goal.
Therefore, new secondary effluent conveyance facilities are required at OC San Plant
No. 2 to convey the secondary effluent to GWRS. These conveyance facilities include
an effluent pump station, a flow equalization tank and a pipeline. In addition,
recommendations from the SP-173 study showed that the segregation of the Santa Ana
Regional Interceptor (SARI) trunk flows to OC San Plant No. 2 is feasible as part of the
GWRS Final Expansion Project. Currently SARI flows are not permitted to be recycled
through GWRS due to the industrial and treatment facility discharges that currently flow
in the SARI trunk sewer. Therefore, in addition to the conveyance facilities, the OC San
Plant No. 2 headworks facilities will segregate the SARI trunk flows and treat these
flows separately for discharge to the ocean outfall. This project is referred to as the
Plant No. 2 Headworks Modification Project.
The Advanced Water Treatment Facility is the GWRS facility made up of the
microfiltration, reverse osmosis and UV treatment processes. The AWTF will need to be
expanded to treat the additional 30 MGD of secondary effluent to meet the build-out
water production goal of 130 MGD total. With all the above considerations, the GWRS
Final Expansion Project includes the following project contracts/components:
GWRS Final Expansion Project Components
CONTRACT 1 — Construction Phase (Shimmick)
• Advanced Water Treatment Facility Expansion
• P2 Effluent Pump Station
• P2 Flow Equalization Tanks
CONTRACT 2: - Construction Phase (JF Shea)
• Pipeline Rehabilitation
CONTRACT 3: - Construction Phase (Shimmick)
• OC San Headworks Modification
OCWD is responsible for the costs of all the projects listed above for the GWRS Final
Expansion Project. However, OC San is managing the construction of the P2
Headworks Modification Project (P2-122).
The construction phase of Contract 1 was awarded to Shimmick Construction
Company, Inc. in the amount of $199.9 million — which includes the AWTF Expansion,
P2 Pump Station, and the P2 Flow Equalization Tanks. The Notice to Proceed was
issued on November 2, 2019 and per the allotted construction duration — the project is
scheduled to be complete on February 19, 2023. Current construction activities include
building the new concrete MF basement structure for the new microfiltration cells that
will be added to the AWTF. At OC San Plant No. 2, Shimmick's subcontractor, DN
Tanks, is currently working on the two prestressed concrete flow equalization tanks.
Contract 2 (Pipeline Rehab) was awarded to JF Shea Construction in the amount of
$11.6 million on July 15, 2020. The Notice to Proceed was issued on August 17, 2020
and per the allotted construction duration — the project is scheduled to be complete on
June 3, 2021 . Current construction activities include the installation of the new steel
pipe within the existing 66-inch pipeline in the "siphon" portion of the pipeline that runs
under Adams Ave. in Huntington Beach. The remaining pipeline will be slip-lined with
Fiberglass Reinforced Polymer (FRP) pipe.
The OC San Headworks Modification Project was awarded to Shimmick Construction
Co., Inc. at the January 22nd OC San Board of Directors meeting. The Notice to Proceed
was issued on March 2, 2020 and per the allotted construction duration — the project is
scheduled to be complete on March 8, 2023. Current construction activities include
potholing existing utilities, drilling/commissioning of dewatering wells, and preparatory
measurements for new gates to isolate the headworks.
The approved GWRSFE Project budget, which includes all three contracts, is shown in
Table 1 below with the expected GWRSFE Project Budget shown in the right column.

Grant - Round 1 IRWM (Prop 1) -$3,589,553
Grant - USBR Title XVI -$1,325,000
Total Net Expected Project Budget $283,285,447
The expected GWRSFE Project Budget is less than the approved project budget due to
the following factors:
• The Microfiltration (MF) System for the GWRSFE Project was competitively bid in
this phase and due to this process — significant savings in the cost of the MF
equipment were achieved
• The Headworks Modification Project bid was significantly lower than the
Engineer's Estimate
• The Pipeline Rehabilitation Project bid was also significantly lower than the
Engineer's Estimate
The expected GWRSFE Project budget will continue to be tracked for planning
purposes. Funding for this project is through a variety of different sources. In August
2018, OCWD Board of Directors executed a loan agreement with the EPA for a low
interest rate WIFIA loan in the amount of $135 million. The remaining $186 million is
slated to be received from the State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan. Also, through the SRF
Loan application process the GWRSFE Project was awarded a total of $5 million in
grants.
OCWD was also recently notified that the project is being awarded $3.6 million in Prop 1
grants from the IRWM grant program managed by the California Department of Water
Resources.
Additionally, OC San/OCWD applied for USBR Title XVI grant for the P2 Headworks
Modification Project in Summer of 2017. Staff was notified in November 2017 that the
application for P2-122 received some of the highest ratings and was awarded
$1,325,000 in grant funding.
The grants described above are also shown on the expected GWRSFE Project Budget.
Table 2 below shows the construction completion percentages for each of the project
elements (based on expenditures and duration) as of December 30, 2020.

1. Minutes of Previous Meeting
The minutes of the GWRS Steering Committee meeting held July 13, 2020 are approved
as presented.
INFORMATIONAL ITEMS
2. GWRS Operations Update
Executive Director of Operations/GWRS Mehul Patel reported that as of as of September 30,
2020, the GWRS Fiscal Year 2020-2021 production total was 24,354 of which is 1,608 of
below the target fiscal year production of 25,962 af. He advised this shortfall was due to limited
production caused by three separate issues. He stated that one issue for lower production was
the occurrence of five demand response events in August and two in September due to heat
wave events. Mr. Patel advised that the GWRS participates in a voluntary electrical load
reduction program called Demand Response where production is lowered to 15 mgd when an
event is called in order to reduce electrical consumption which results in payment to OCWD.
He stated that the second issue limiting reduction was a two-day planned GWRS outage from
August 30 to September 1 for the GWRS Final Expansion construction project to tie in new UV
trains. He reported that the third issue limiting production is lower flows from OCSD due to
ongoing construction of a replacement return activated sludge line at their Plant 1 Activated
Sludge #1 process.
3. Update on GWRS Final Expansion Project
GWRS Program Manager Sandy Scott-Roberts reviewed the GWRSFE Project Budget vs
Expected Project Budget. She reported that the expected GWRSFE Project Budget is less than
the approved project budget due to the following factors:
• The Microfiltration (MF) System for the GWRSFE Project was competitively bid in this
phase and due to this process — significant savings in the cost of the MF equipment
were achieved
• The Headworks Modification Project bid was significantly lower than the Engineer's
Estimate
• The Pipeline Rehabilitation Project bid was also significantly lower than the Engineer's
Estimate
She advised that OCWD was also recently notified that the project is being awarded $3.6
million in Prop 1 grants from the IRWM grant program managed by the California Department
of Water Resources.
4. Third Quarter Outreach Report [July— September 20201
Director of Public Affairs Gina Ayala stated that there were 10 virtual tours, three joint virtual
tours and three essential in-person tours during the third quarter. She reported that an
updated on-demand virtual tour was posted to OCWD's social media channels which has been
viewed more than 1,800 times. Ms. Ayala provided an update on construction outreach stating
that OCWD worked with the Orange County Sanitation District to distribute two notices to
stakeholders.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business to come before the Committee, the meeting was adjourned at

N. Motion to Refer to a Standing Committee. Any Director at a Board or
Committee meeting may move to have a policy or any other activity affecting the

discussion thereof shall be limited to Directors only. Said motion shall receive an
affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors for adoption.
O. All meetings of the Board of Directors shall be publicly available and recorded.
The audio/video recording of any open and public meeting shall be subject to inspection

Section 2: Procedure for Consideration of Demands for Corrective Action.
A. Requirement of Written Demand. Prior to any person commencing a judicial
action for injunction or mandamus to declare any action taken by the Board void because
of failure to observe Brown Act requirements, such person must first serve upon the Clerk
of the Board a written demand describing the alleged violation and demanding corrective
action. Such demand must be served upon the Clerk of the Board within thirty (30) days
of the complained of action. Failure to serve any such demand within this thirty (30) day
period shall result in the loss of any right to challenge any action to have been taken in
violation of Sections 54953, 54954.2 or 54956 of the California Government Code.
B. Consideration of Corrective Action. Upon receipt of such a demand,
consideration of the demand shall immediately be placed on the Agenda for the next
meeting of the Board of Directors. If the demand is received less than seventy-two (72)
hours prior to the time set for the next meeting, the Board may determine that the notice
constitutes the initiation of litigation, and that the need to take action on the threatened
litigation arose subsequent to the posting of the Agenda and may consider it at that
meeting pursuant to Section 1(J) above. A description of any item so placed on the
Agenda shall include both consideration of the demand, and the possibility of corrective
action, by the Board.
In considering such demands, the Board shall first determine, by motion,
whether corrective action should be taken. If no motion to take corrective action is carried,
OC SAN 21-XX-14
the Clerk of the Board shall inform the demanding party in writing of the Board's decision
not to cure or correct the challenged action.
C. Implementing Corrective Action. If a motion to take corrective action
passes, the Chairperson may entertain a motion implementing corrective action. Any
motion implementing corrective action shall address the concerns raised in the
consideration of corrective action. The motion implementing corrective action may
include a motion to rescind prior action taken, as appropriate. Passage of a motion to
rescind invalidates prior action only as of the time of the passage of the motion, and not
from the date of the initial action. A motion implementing corrective action resulting from
a written demand is out-of-order if the action complained of(a) was in connection with the
sale or issuance of notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness, or any contract,
agreement or incident thereto; or (b) gave rise to a contractual obligation upon which a
party has, in good faith, detrimentally relied. In any event, the Board shall notify the party
making the demand in writing of its decision to take corrective action and shall describe
any corrective action taken. This notice shall be given to the demanding party as soon
as possible after the meeting, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after receipt of
the demand.
Section4: Resolution No. OCSD 19-19 is hereby repealed.
Section 5: This Resolution shall become effective immediately.

Fountain Valley, California; provided, however, if the fourth Wednesday of the month falls
upon a legal holiday, said monthly meeting shall be held on the next day thereafter, at the
same time and place, unless the Board of Directors adjourns to a different date and time.
The Board of Directors may adjourn any regular, special or adjourned special
meeting to a time and place certain, as specified in the order of adjournment.
B. Special Meetings. A special meeting of the Board of Directors may be
called in either one of the following ways:

(2) By the written request of a majority of the Steering Committee
delivered to the Clerk of the Board.
The call or notice for special meeting shall be in writing and delivered electronically
or by mail at least twenty-four (24) hours before the time of such meeting, as specified in
the notice. Any notice deposited in the regular mail addressed to a Director at the address
he or she has on file with the Clerk of the Board postage prepaid, sixty (60) hours in
advance of any such meeting as specified in the notice, shall be presumed to have been
delivered. If the notice is delivered electronically, the Clerk of the Board should use an
OC SAN 21-01-1
electronic "read receipt" to ensure delivery. If a Director has not read the notice, the Clerk
will diligently attempt to contact the Director by telephone as soon as possible after the
publication of the notice.
The call or notice shall specify the time and place of the special meeting, a
description of the business to be transacted and copies of all pertinent material.
Such notice may be dispensed with as to any Director or Alternate Director who,
at or prior to the time the meeting convenes, files with the Clerk of the Board a written
waiver of notice. Such waiver may be given by facsimile or electronic mail. Such notice
may also be dispensed with as to any member who is actually present at the meeting at
the time it convenes. The Clerk of the Board shall diligently attempt to notify each Director
personally of the time, place and purpose of said meeting, not less than twenty-four (24)
hours before the time of said meeting.
The call or notice shall be posted in the administrative offices' public lobby and in
a location freely accessible to the public at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the special
meeting.
C. Meetings Adjourned by Clerk of the Board. If at any regular, adjourned
regular, special or adjourned special meeting there is not a quorum of Directors present,
the Clerk of the Board may declare the meeting adjourned to a stated time and place and
shall cause written notice of the adjournment to be given in the same manner as for a
special meeting, unless such notice is waived as provided for in special meetings. Within
twenty-four (24) hours after the time of the adjournment, a copy of the order or notice of
adjournment shall be conspicuously posted on or near the door of the place where the
meeting was held and, in a location, freely accessible to the public.
D. Notices to News Media. When any local newspaper of general circulation,
radio or television station requests, in writing, notices of meetings of the Board of
Directors, the Clerk of the Board shall thereafter, until receipt of a notice terminating said
request, deliver notices of regular, regular adjourned and special adjourned meetings to
such newspapers, radio or television stations. Delivery shall be made in the same manner
as delivery is made to the Directors.
E. Conduct of Meetings.

be as set forth in Table 1 , attached hereto and adopted herein by reference. Robert's

interpretation or application of these Rules to any procedure, the presiding officer may

wishing to speak, or any member of the public wishing to address the Board, must first
be recognized by the Chairperson. The Chairperson must recognize any member of the

matter of business properly before the Board by making a motion. Any member, including
the Chairperson, except the member making the motion, may second the motion. Once

the procedures in Subsection (4) below.
(4) Rules for Discussion, Debate and Deliberation by the Board. The
procedures for consideration and action on all matters to come before the Board shall be
in compliance with the terms of this Section, as follows:

Section 2: Procedure for Consideration of Demands for Corrective Action.
A. Requirement of Written Demand. Prior to any person commencing a judicial
action for injunction or mandamus to declare any action taken by the Board void because
of failure to observe Brown Act requirements, such person must first serve upon the Clerk
of the Board a written demand describing the alleged violation and demanding corrective
action. Such demand must be served upon the Clerk of the Board within thirty (30) days
of the complained of action. Failure to serve any such demand within this thirty (30) day
period shall result in the loss of any right to challenge any action to have been taken in
violation of Sections 54953, 54954.2 or 54956 of the California Government Code.
B. Consideration of Corrective Action. Upon receipt of such a demand,
consideration of the demand shall immediately be placed on the Agenda for the next
meeting of the Board of Directors. If the demand is received less than seventy-two (72)
hours prior to the time set for the next meeting, the Board may determine that the notice
constitutes the initiation of litigation, and that the need to take action on the threatened
litigation arose subsequent to the posting of the Agenda and may consider it at that
meeting pursuant to Section 1(J) above. A description of any item so placed on the
Agenda shall include both consideration of the demand, and the possibility of corrective
action, by the Board.
In considering such demands, the Board shall first determine, by motion,
whether corrective action should be taken. If no motion to take corrective action is carried,
OC SAN 21-01-14
the Clerk of the Board shall inform the demanding party in writing of the Board's decision
not to cure or correct the challenged action.
C. Implementing Corrective Action. If a motion to take corrective action
passes, the Chairperson may entertain a motion implementing corrective action. Any
motion implementing corrective action shall address the concerns raised in the
consideration of corrective action. The motion implementing corrective action may
include a motion to rescind prior action taken, as appropriate. Passage of a motion to
rescind invalidates prior action only as of the time of the passage of the motion, and not
from the date of the initial action. A motion implementing corrective action resulting from
a written demand is out-of-order if the action complained of(a) was in connection with the
sale or issuance of notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness, or any contract,
agreement or incident thereto; or (b) gave rise to a contractual obligation upon which a
party has, in good faith, detrimentally relied. In any event, the Board shall notify the party
making the demand in writing of its decision to take corrective action and shall describe
any corrective action taken. This notice shall be given to the demanding party as soon
as possible after the meeting, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after receipt of
the demand.
Section 4: Resolution No. OCSD 19-19 is hereby repealed.
Section 5: This Resolution shall become effective immediately.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Board of Directors held
