FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Kathy Millea, Director of Engineering
SUBJECT:
BAY BRIDGE PUMP STATION VALVE REPLACEMENT, PROJECT NO. FRC-0002
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to:
A. Receive and file Bid Tabulation and Recommendation for Bay Bridge Pump Station Valve
Replacement, Project No. FRC-0002;
B. Award a Service Contract to Innovative Construction Solutions for Bay Bridge Pump Station
Valve Replacement, Project No. FRC-0002, Specification
No. S-2020-119213D, for a total amount not to exceed $598,000; and
C. Approve a contingency of $59,800 (10%).
BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) owns and operates pump stations and a
force main network along Pacific Coast Highway in Newport Beach. The Bay Bridge Pump Station
was originally constructed in 1965 and is at the end of its useful life. Bay Bridge Pump Station
Replacement, Project No. 5-67, is in design and scheduled to replace the pump station by 2027.
Some equipment, such as isolation valves, are in urgent need of replacement and cannot wait until
the new pump station is commissioned in 2027.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Comply with California Public Contract Code Section 20103.8: Award service contract to
lowest responsive, responsible bidder
• Achieve less than 2.1 sewer spills per 100 miles
PROBLEM
To perform pump maintenance and repairs, maintenance crews rely on isolation valves between the
wet well and a pump, and between a pump and the discharge header. These valves are at the end
of their useful life and there is an immediate risk that a valve might fail open, which would prevent a
pump from being repaired, or fail close, which would prevent a pump from going back into service.
Orange County Sanitation District Page 1 of 3 Printed on 10/28/2020
powered by LegistarTM
File #: 2020-1143 Agenda Date: 11/4/2020 Agenda Item No: 2.
Such a failure in a wet weather event could cause a sewer spill. The poor condition of these valves
requires them to be replaced prior to the Bay Bridge Pump Station Replacement Project.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Award a Service Contract for Bay Bridge Pump Station Valve Replacement, Project No. FRC-0002.
The contract will replace eight gate valves and one flow meter. To perform the work, the contractor
will completely bypass the pump station for several weeks using portable pumps and temporary
piping.
TIMING CONCERNS
Due to the fact that the work requires bypass pumping, the specifications do not allow the work to
occur during the wet weather period, which ends on April 15, 2021. As the bypass pumping will
encroach on the northern-most lane of Pacific Coast Highway, the City of Newport Beach will not
allow the work to occur between Memorial Day and Labor Day when traffic is heaviest. With the time
required to procure the valves, delaying the award of this contract might require the work to be
postponed until September 2021.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Without replacement of the valves, the pumps may become inoperable or crews may be unable to
isolate and repair pumps until the pump station is replaced in 2027. Construction of the replacement
station could also be more expensive if crews cannot rely on the existing valves operate correctly.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
N/A
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Sanitation District advertised Bay Bridge Pump Station Valve Replacement, Project No. FRC-
0002, for bids on August 14, 2020 and eight bids were received on September 15, 2020. A summary
of the bid opening follows:
Engineer's Estimate $ 670,000
Bidder Amount of Bid
Innovative Construction Solutions $ 598,000
J.R. Filanc Construction Co. Inc. $ 658,000
PCL Construction, Inc. $ 668,499
Teichert Energy & Utilities Group $ 670,000

File #: 2020-1143 Agenda Date: 11/4/2020 Agenda Item No: 2.
The bids were evaluated in accordance with the Sanitation District's policies and procedures. A
notice was sent to all bidders on September 23, 2020 informing them of the intent of Sanitation
District staff to recommend award of the Service Contract to Innovative Construction Solutions.
Staff recommends awarding a Service Contract to the lowest responsive bidder, Innovative
Construction Solutions, for a total amount not to exceed $598,000.
CEQA
The project is exempt from CEQA under the Class 1 categorical exemptions set forth in California
Code of Regulations Section 15301 because the project involves repairs, replacement, and or minor
alteration of existing facilities involving no expansion of use or capacity. A Notice of Exemption will
be filed with the OC Clerk-Recorder after the Sanitation District's Board of Directors approval of the
service contract.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Purchasing Ordinance. This
recommendation would be funded under the Repairs and Maintenance line item for Division 820
(Fiscal Years FY 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 Budget, Section 6, Page 75), and the available funding is
sufficient for this action.

account of use of any copyrighted or uncopyrighted material, composition, or process, or
any patented or unpatented invention, article or appliance, furnished or used under the
Contract, and/or (c) on account of any goods and services provided under this Contract.
This indemnification provision shall apply to any acts or omissions, willful misconduct, or
negligent misconduct, whether active or passive, on the part of Contractor of or anyone
employed by or working under Contractor. To the maximum extent permitted by law,
Contractor's duty to defend shall apply whether or not such claims, allegations, lawsuits, or
proceedings have merit or are meritless, or which involve claims or allegations that any of
the parties to be defended were actively, passively, or concurrently negligent, or which
otherwise assert that the parties to be defended are responsible, in whole or in part, for any
loss, damage, or injury. Contractor agrees to provide this defense immediately upon written
notice from OCSD, and with well qualified, adequately insured, and experienced legal
counsel acceptable to OCSD.
16. OCSD Safety Standards OCSD requires Contractor and its subcontractor(s) to follow and
ensure their employees follow all Federal, State, and local regulations as well as OCSD
Safety Standards while working at OCSD locations. If during the course of the Contract it is
discovered that OCSD Safety Standards do not comply with Federal, State, or local
regulations, then the Contractor is required to follow the most stringent regulatory
requirement at no additional cost to OCSD. Contractor and all of its employees and
subcontractors, shall adhere to all applicable OCSD Safety Standards attached hereto in
Exhibit "D" and the Human Resources Policies in Exhibit "E".
17. Warranties In addition to the warranties stated in Exhibit "A", the following shall apply:
17.1 Manufacturer's standard warranty shall apply. All manufacturer warranties shall commence

complete.
Orange County Sanitation District 4 of 10 Specification No. S-2020-1192BD
Version 080919
17.2 Contractor's Warranty (Guarantee): If within a one (1) year period of completion of all work
as specified in Exhibit "A", OCSD informs Contractor that any portion of the Services
provided fails to meet the standards required under this Contract, Contractor shall, within
the time agreed to by OCSD and Contractor, take all such actions as are necessary to
correct or complete the noted deficiency(ies) at Contractor's sole expense.
18. Liquidated Damages In the event the Contractor fails to achieve completion of the work
within the term of this Contract or achievement of any designated Milestones, after due
allowance for extensions of time made in accordance with the Contract, if any, OCSD will
sustain damage which would be extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain. The
Parties therefore agree that in each such event, Contractor will pay to OCSD the sum of
Five Hundred Dollars ($500) per day, as Liquidated Damages, and not as a penalty, for
each and every calendar day during which completion of the work, as required in Exhibit
"A", is so delayed. Contractor agrees to pay such Liquidated Damages and further agrees
that OCSD may offset the amount of Liquidated Damages from any monies due or that may
become due Contractor under this Contract. Contractor also agrees that to the extent the
amount of Liquidated Damages exceeds any monies due to the Contractor under this
Contract, Contractor shall pay all such amounts to OCSD upon demand. If this provision is
found for any reason to be void, invalid, or otherwise inoperative so as to disentitle OCSD
from claiming Liquidated Damages, OCSD is entitled to claim against the Contractor
damages at law for the Contractor's failure to complete the work during the term of this
Contract.
19. Force Maieure Neither party shall be liable for delays caused by accident, flood, acts of
God, fire, labor trouble, war, acts of government or any other cause beyond its control, but
said party shall use reasonable efforts to minimize the extent of the delay. Work affected
by a Force Majeure condition may be rescheduled by mutual consent or may be eliminated
from the Contract.

transportation scheduling, packing, handling, insurance, and other services associated with
delivery of all products deemed necessary under this Contract.
21. Familiarity with Work By executing this Contract, Contractor warrants that: 1) it has
investigated the work to be performed; and 2) it understands the facilities, difficulties and
restrictions of the work under this Contract. Should Contractor discover any latent or
unknown conditions materially differing from those inherent in the work or as represented
by OCSD, it shall immediately inform OCSD of this and shall not proceed, except at
Contractor's risk, until written instructions are received from OCSD.
22. Regulatory Requirements Contractor shall perform all work under this Contract in strict
conformance with applicable Federal, State, and local regulatory requirements including,
but not limited to, 40 CFR 122, 123, 124, 257, 258, 260, 261, and 503, Title 22, 23, and
California Water Codes Division 2.
23. Environmental Compliance Contractor shall, at its own cost and expense, comply with all

State, and local laws, rules, and regulations. Contractor also agrees to indemnify and hold

ENGINEERING PROGRAM CONTRACT PERFORMANCE REPORT
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to:
Receive and file the Engineering Program Contract Performance Report for the period ending
September 30, 2020.
BACKGROUND
The Engineering Program involves awarding and managing many construction and consulting
contracts. In 2008, the Orange County Sanitation District Board of Directors began awarding
contingencies along with construction and consulting contracts and amendments for consulting
contracts up to the amount of the approved contingency. This practice reduces administrative costs,
expedites resolution of project issues that arise, helps avoid contractor delay claims, and facilitates
efficient management of many contracts.
The Engineering Program Contract Performance Report summarizes construction and consulting
contract performance and activities for the quarter ending September 30, 2020. This report is
updated quarterly.

Contract Performance Report
For the period ending September 30, 2020
TM1,s THE E
When the Sanitation District Board awards a construction contract, they also approve a
contingency which allows the General Manager to approve contract change orders up to
the amount of the contingency. One purpose of this report is to document how much of
the contingency is utilized. A contract's change order rate is only meaningful when the
work is completed. As such, the change order performance charts in this report are based
only on contracts closed since the Board began approving contingencies in 2008. The
following chart shows how cumulative change order rates have changed for plant,
collections, and all contracts since the contingency system was implemented.

� THE EN
PART 2 — ENGINEERING SERVICES AGREEMENTS
The Sanitation District engages engineering consultants through Professional Service
Agreements (PSAs), Professional Design Services Agreements (PDSAs), Professional
Construction Services Agreements (PCSAs), and Master Professional Services
Agreements (Master Agreements). PDSAs are used to obtain design engineering
services, and PCSAs are a subsequent agreement with the design consultant to provide
support services during construction. PSAs are used for planning studies and other
consultant assignments.
Master Agreements are issued to a pool of pre-qualified consultants for smaller projects.
On those smaller projects, the Sanitation District solicits task order proposals from three
or four of the firms and awards a task order to the most qualified consultant. There are
currently six sets of Master Agreements.
• 2012 Master Design Agreements (expired)
• 2015 Master Design Agreements (expired)
• 2018 Master Design Agreements
• 2017 Master Agreements for CEQA Studies
• 2017 Master Agreements for Collection Planning Studies
• 2017 Master Agreements for Wastewater Treatment Planning Studies
• 2020 Master Agreements for Planning Studies
The two Master Design Agreements from 2012, and 2015 have expired, meaning no new
task orders can be issued under them, but previously-issued task orders remain active
until completed. Task Orders are limited by Sanitation District Ordinance No. OCSD-52
$300,000 per task order. The 2020 Master Agreements for Planning Studies were
awarded in September to replace the 2017 Master Agreements for Collection and
Wastewater Planning Studies that expire in October 2020.
A status table for all Active Engineering Services Agreements (PDSAs and PCSAs) is
attached under Table 3, and a status table for all Active Task Orders by Master
Agreement is attached under Table 4 (Master Agreements).

PART 4 — SUPPLEMENTAL ENGINEERING SERVICES CONTRACT
In May 2016, the Sanitation District Board of Directors approved a $41 million
professional services agreement with Jacobs Project Management Co. to provide
supplemental engineering and support staff services for a four-year term with the option
of three one-year renewals. The benefits of using a supplemental engineering services
contract, as opposed to hiring full-time staff or limited-term employees, include rapid
mobilization of highly skilled/technical staff, flexibility to change the mix of staff positions
on an immediate and as-needed basis, the ability to reduce staff as workloads decrease,
access to technical experts to support special tasks, and access to staff with wastewater
project experience.
A status table for the supplemental engineering services contract summary is attached
under Table 10, and the supplemental engineering services labor summary can be
found under Table 11 .

Agenda Report
File #: 2020-1180 Agenda Date: 11/4/2020 Agenda Item No: 4.
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Rob Thompson, Assistant General Manager
SUBJECT:
INDUSTRIAL CLEANING SERVICES, SPECIFICATION NO. S-2020-1184BD
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to:
A. Award a Service Contract to Performance Pipeline Technologies Inc. dba Sanitation Systems
for Industrial Cleaning Service, Specification No. S-2020-118413D, for a total amount not to
exceed $694,500 for the period of January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, with four one-
year renewal options; and
B. Approve an annual contingency of$69,450 (10%).
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this Service Contract is to provide for industrial cleaning of the Orange County
Sanitation District (Sanitation District) treatment facilities and pump station civil infrastructure. The
service provider will remove and dispose of debris, grit, and other materials that tend to collect inside
process structures, basins, pipes, and facilities using a combination hydro cleaning and industrial
vacuuming equipment. These cleaning tasks are part of a planned and scheduled preventative and
corrective maintenance approach that will help ensure availability of treatment plant structures.
The use of a Service Contract is a more efficient method of procurement, contracting, accounting,
and specification development. Significant staff time is saved by not bidding and contracting each
individual task. This process efficiently consolidates individual contracts into one contract authorized
by the Board of Directors.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Protect Orange County Sanitation District assets
• 24/7/365 treatment plant reliability
• Maintain a proactive asset management program
PROBLEM
Without periodic cleaning of process structures, pipes, and wetwells to remove debris, grit, scum, and
Orange County Sanitation District Page 1 of 4 Printed on 10/28/2020

other materials, the process capacity and performance of these assets will be compromised.
Additionally, the Sanitation District will not have the opportunity to assess the structural and
mechanical conditions inside of the structures, pipes, and wetwells without this cleaning.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Establish a Service Contract for industrial cleaning services with a qualified firm to facilitate the
removal of debris from process structures, pipes, wetwells, and assets to ensure conveyance
capacity of treatment processes.
TIMING CONCERNS
The current Service Contract expires on December 10, 2020. Timely approval of the contract will
enable staff to stay on track with the cleaning schedule and maximize process performance.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Without periodic cleaning, the Sanitation District could experience degraded treatment process
performance and higher rehabilitation costs of assets in the future.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
October 2016 - Approve a contingency increase of $110,565 (21%) to the service contract with
Performance Pipeline Technologies for Industrial Cleaning Services, Specification No. S-2015-
71413D, for the period December 11, 2015 through December 10, 2016, for a new total contingency
amount not to exceed $215,865 (41%); and Approve a contingency of $105,300 (20%) per year for all
remaining renewal periods.
October 2015 - Award a service contract to Performance Pipeline Technologies for Industrial
Cleaning Services, Specification No. S-2015-71413D, for a total amount not to exceed $526,500 for
the period December 11, 2015 through December 10, 2016, with four one-year renewal options; and
Approve a contingency of $105,300 (20%).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Staff conducted a Request for Proposals on July 30, 2020. A virtual non-mandatory pre-proposal
meeting was conducted on August 18, 2020 via Microsoft Teams. Proposals were due on September
10, 2020.
Prior to receipt of proposals, an Evaluation Team was formed consisting of the Sanitation District's
staff listed below. The team was chaired by a Purchasing representative as a non-voting member.
On September 29, 2020, the evaluation team met to discuss the policies and procedures for the
evaluation process.

The Sanitation District received three proposals. One proposal was determined to be non-responsive
since they did not possess the required C-42 license. The proposals were evaluated in accordance
with defined Sanitation District procedures as required by the Sanitation District's Purchasing
Ordinance.
All proposals were accompanied by a sealed cost proposal. The evaluation team first reviewed and
scored the proposals based upon the criterion listed above, excluding presentation/interview and
cost. Cost proposals were opened after criterion 1-3 were evaluated.

QUARTERLY ODOR COMPLAINT REPORT
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file the Fiscal Year 2020-21 First Quarter Odor Complaint Report.
BACKGROUND
During the first quarter of FY 2020-21, the Orange County Sanitation District had the following
attributable odor complaints: Plant No. 1 had one odor complaint, Plant No. 2 had three odor
complaints, and the collections system had two odor complaints. A summary of the odor complaints
with a table tracking the history is included as an attachment.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Zero odor incidents/events under normal operating conditions for Plant Nos. 1 and 2
• Operate and maintain facilities to minimize impacts on surrounding communities, including
odor, noise, and lighting
• 12 or fewer odor complaints per year under normal operating conditions in the collections
system

Odor Complaint Report
Fiscal Year 2020/21 — 1 st Quarter
1. Plant No. 1 Treatment Facility Odor Complaint Summary
Plant No. 1 received one attributable odor complaint during the 1st quarter. Upset in headworks'
biological scrubber was the source of odor complaint. The biological condition is under investigation
to prevent the decrease in removal efficiency in that process area.
Plant No. 2 Treatment Facility Odor Complaint Summary
Plant No. 2 received three attributable odor complaints during the 1st quarter. A mechanical failure
of the vent fan in the truck loading bay, process draining of Trickling Filter C, and the unplugging of
a trickling filter line were the sources of odor complaints. Operations and Maintenance supervisors
are meeting to discuss future actions to prevent odors associated with maintenance activities.
2. Collections Facilities Odor Complaint Summary
The collection system received two attributable odor complaints in the City of Costa Mesa during
the 1st quarter. Both odor complaints were due to the pressurization and ventilation of foul odors
escaping sewer manhole covers. The manhole covers have been subsequently sealed to reduce
sewer odors and prevent any further complaint.

PLANT NO. 1 CENTRAL GENERATION UPS SYSTEM REPLACEMENT
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Approve a Purchase Order Contract for the purchase and installation of a replacement
uninterruptible power supply system for Plant No. 1 Central Generation, using the U.S.
Communities Master Agreement No. EV2370, to Graybar Electric, for an amount not to exceed
$102,325, plus applicable sales tax and freight; and
B. Approve a contingency of $20,465 (20%).
BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sanitation District's (Sanitation District) Reclamation Plant No. 1 is powered by
Southern California Edison and the Plant No. 1 Central Generation (CenGen) operating in parallel.
The control and computer systems that manage the engines, power transfer systems, and process
systems at CenGen are powered with an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) to prevent short-duration
power interruption that cause system instability. Power system instability causes plant wide
equipment shutdowns.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Protect Orange County Sanitation District assets
• 24/7/365 treatment plant reliability
• Maintain a proactive asset management program
PROBLEM
The existing CenGen UPS system was installed under Project No. J-19-1 in 1993. This UPS system
is at the end of its useful life and prone to battery failures. System components are obsolete, so
replacement parts are difficult to locate and procure. The system may be down for extended periods
when failures occur while parts are located and procured.

powered by LegistarTM
File #: 2020-1294 Agenda Date: 11/4/2020 Agenda Item No: 6.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Staff recommends replacing the existing CenGen UPS and batteries with a new turnkey solution from
U.S. Communities/Graybar. The new UPS system will reduce operational risk and improve
maintainability of the system.
TIMING CONCERNS
The Headworks Rehabilitation and Expansion Project No. P1-105 will replace the CenGen UPS in
2027 when a new power building is built and commissioned. The existing UPS cannot provide
reliable service through 2027.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Not acting will impact the Plant No.1 power stability. In addition, the Continuous Emission Monitoring
System for the CenGen engines will be impacted risking Air Quality Management District permit
compliance.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
N/A
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The scope of this project covers replacement of existing UPS units, batteries, and external bypass
switches with new UPS units, batteries, and bypass switches. A 20% contingency is requested to
cover any unforeseen issues during replacement and/or potential contactor delays caused by
schedule conflicts involving taking critical equipment offline.
CEQA
UPS replacement is categorically exempt from CEQA under the Class 1 categorical exemptions set
forth in California Code of Regulations Section 15301. Section 15301 (Class 1) exempts from CEQA
"the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing
public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving
negligible or no expansion of existing or former use," including "(b) Existing facilities of both investor
and publicly-owned utilities used to provide electric power, natural gas, sewerage, or other public
utility services".
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Purchasing Ordinance. This
recommendation will be funded under the Repair and Maintenance line item for Plant No. 1
Maintenance Department (Budget Fiscal Year 2020-21, Section 6, Page 92). The available funding is
sufficient for this action.

ORANGE-WESTERN SUB-TRUNK REHABILITATION, CONTRACT NO. 3-64A
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to:
A. Receive and file Bid Tabulation and Recommendation for Orange-Western Sub-Trunk
Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64A; and
B. Reject all bids and direct staff to combine the work for Orange-Western Sub-Trunk
Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64A, into a single bid package with Los Alamitos Trunk Sewer
Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64B.
BACKGROUND
Rehabilitation of Western Regional Sewers, Project No. 3-64, is a program to replace or rehabilitate
regional sewers in the Orange County Sanitation District's (Sanitation District) northwestern service
area including the cities of Los Alamitos, Cypress, La Palma, Buena Park, Anaheim, Seal Beach, and
Rossmoor, an unincorporated area. These sewers range in age from 40 to 60 years and require mid-
life refurbishment to attain their full-service life. To manage public impacts and resource demands,
the work has been divided into three construction contracts to be completed on separate schedules.
Orange-Western Sub-Trunk Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64A, would rehabilitate 2.5 miles of 21-
inch pipe along Orange Avenue between Valley View Street and Western Avenue and along Western
Avenue between Orange Avenue and Santa Elena Drive in the cities of Anaheim, Cypress, and
Buena Park.
Los Alamitos Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64B, will rehabilitate 6 miles of 24-inch
through 39-inch pipe sewer in the cities of Seal Beach, Los Alamitos, and Cypress. This contract is
scheduled to be advertised for construction in January 2021, with construction starting in May 2021.
Cypress Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64C, will rehabilitate or upsize 36,000 feet of
sewers in the cities of Cypress, Los Alamitos, and La Palma. Detailed design of this contract is
scheduled to start in January 2021, with construction starting in September 2022.

RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Achieve less than 2.1 sewer spills per 100 miles
• Comply with California Public Contract Code Section 20103.8: Award contract to lowest
responsive, responsible bidder.
• Ensure the public's money is wisely spent
PROBLEM
On August 18, 2020, only two bids were received for Orange-Western Sub-Trunk Rehabilitation,
Contract No. 3-64A. The low bid, from Teichert Energy & Utilities Group, Inc., was found to be non-
responsive because it did not meet safety submittal requirements as stated in the Invitation for Bid
(IFB). The other bid, from Kiewit Infrastructure West Co., was found to be responsive and
responsible, but the bid was $4.1 million, or 61 percent, higher than the Engineer's Estimate.
The contract could be rebid with some changes made to make it more attractive to bidders.
However, the bid period would overlap with Los Alamitos Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-
64B. That contract involves very similar work, and the two contracts would be competing for the
same bidders.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Reject all bids for Orange-Western Sub-Trunk Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64A, and include the
work into the same construction contract for Los Alamitos Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3
-64B. The larger construction contract should be more attractive to general contractors, and
construction management and inspection efforts may be reduced due to economies of scale. The
two packages are approximately five miles apart, so there should be no overlapping public impacts.
TIMING CONCERNS
The Contract No. 3-64A work was originally separated out because it was expected to be started well
before the Contract No. 3-64B work. Contract No. 3-64B is scheduled to be advertised for
construction in January 2021, with construction starting in May 2021.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Board action is required by the California Public Contract Code to either award the contract as
advertised, or to reject all bids.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Sanitation District advertised Orange-Western Sub-Trunk Rehabilitation, Contract No. 3-64A, for
bids on June 30, 2020. Two sealed bids were received on August 18, 2020.

Engineer's Estimate $6,775,000
Bidder Amount of Bid
Teichert Energy & Utilities Group, Inc. $6,520,000
Kiewit Infrastructure West Co. $10,912,500
The bids were evaluated in accordance with the Sanitation District's policies and procedures and staff
consulted with Sanitation District's General Counsel prior to finalizing the evaluation process.
Teichert Energy & Utilities Group, Inc. (Teichert), the apparent low bidder, was deemed
nonresponsive for the following reasons:
- Teichert failed to meet the deadline for submission of safety information as required by the
IFB.
- Teichert did not notify the Sanitation District of any extension needed prior to the missed
deadline.
- In later communication with the Sanitation District's procurement staff, Teichert informed the
Sanitation District that it did not intend to proceed with its Bid due to issues related to some of
its subcontractors. Later, Teichert reconsidered its position and submitted its safety
information ten days after the deadline. At that point, considering the IFB requirements, the
Sanitation District's evaluation policies and procedures, and General Counsel's input, staff
determined that the irregularity was material and could not be waived, which led to a
nonresponsive determination.
One likely reason for the lack of interest from potential bidders is the difficult nature of the work with
traffic control in busy arterial streets and confined-space entries. In addition, chemical injection
grouting and cured-in-place lining are a significant part of the work, and that work is typically
conducted by a small number of specialty contractors.
CEQA
The project is included in the "Rehabilitation of Western Regional Sewers Project No. 3-64"
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) State Clearinghouse Number 2015111077. This EIR was
certified by the Board of Directors and a Notice of Determination was filed on March 22, 2017.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Purchasing Ordinance. This item has been
budgeted (Approved Budget Fiscal Years 2020-2021 and 2021-2022, Section 8, Page 23) and the budget is sufficient for
this action.

Originator: Kathy Millea, Director of Engineering
SUBJECT:
WAREHOUSE, ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION, AND 12KV SERVICE CENTER REPLACEMENT AT
PLANT NO. 2, PROJECT NO. 132-126
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to:
A. Approve a Professional Design Services Agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. to
provide engineering services for Warehouse, Electrical Substation, and 12kV Service Center
Replacement at Plant No. 2, Project No. P2-126, for an amount not to exceed $4,876,455; and
B. Approve a contingency of $487,646 (10%).
BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) has an approximately 20,000 square foot
warehouse at Plant No. 2 constructed in 1998 and used to support Plant No. 2 operations and
maintenance activities.
Plant No. 2 receives power from Southern California Edison (SCE) from a single 66kV feed through
an on-site SCE substation. The SCE Substation feeds the Sanitation District's 12kV Service Center,
which includes electrical equipment to distribute utility power to Plant No. 2 facilities. The 12kV
Service Center, built in 1979, is an approximately 5,600 square foot building.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• 24/7/365 treatment plant reliability
• Protect Orange County Sanitation District assets
• Comply with the California Government Code Section 4525: Select the "best qualified" and
"negotiate fair and equitable fees"
PROBLEM
The existing warehouse is located where new process facilities for the new Class A Digester
Complex will be constructed under TPAD Digester Facility at Plant No. 2, Project No. P2-128. That
specific area is required to accommodate process requirements and the long-term implementation
Orange County Sanitation District Page 1 of 4 Printed on 10/27/2020

File #: 2020-1210 Agenda Date: 11/4/2020 Agenda Item No: 8.
plan for completely replacing the existing digester complex. To avoid a delay to that project, the
demolition of the existing warehouse must be completed by June 2025.
The existing SCE substation has one transformer and is fed from a single SCE line. A failure of the
incoming SCE feed, or in the substation, could result in an extended SCE power outage. Although
Plant No. 2 has a central generation system and standby generators, effluent permit compliance
would be difficult to maintain for an extended period. Providing a second SCE feed requires
replacement of the existing substation.
Seismic Evaluation of Structures at Plant Nos. 1 and 2, Project No. PS15-06, identified seismic
issues with the 12kV Service Center and a potential for liquefaction during an earthquake. These
issues can be mitigated, but the high cost of the work is not justifiable given the limited remaining life
of the facility.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Award a Professional Design Services Agreement for Warehouse, Electrical Substation, and 12kV
Service Center Replacement at Plant No. 2, Project No. P2-126. This project will replace the
Warehouse and 12kV Service Center and improve power reliability at the plant by installing a new
SCE substation with redundant transformers and a second 66kV feed. The SCE substation will be
designed and constructed by SCE under a separate agreement.
TIMING CONCERNS
The existing Warehouse must be demolished by June 2025 to avoid delaying TPAD Digester Facility
at Plant No 2, Project No. P2-128. Any delay in starting the design could delay demolition of the
existing Warehouse.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
The Class A Digester Facilities being constructed under TPAD Digester Facility at Plant No. 2, Project
No. P2-128, would have to be reconfigured to avoid impacting the existing Warehouse. There would
continue to be risk of an extended power outage if the single SCE feed were to fail. Seismic retrofits
would be required for the 12kV Service Center.

Related Project Experience 30%
Project Team and Staff Qualifications 30%
Three proposals were received on August 25, 2020 and evaluated in accordance with the evaluation
process set forth in Sanitation District Board of Directors' Purchasing Ordinance No. OCSD-52
(Purchasing Ordinance) by a pre-selected Evaluation Team consisting of Sanitation District staff
including a CIP Project Manager, Senior Engineer, two Engineering Managers, and an Engineering
Supervisor. A fourth proposal was received after the deadline and was not accepted.
The Evaluation Team also included two non-voting representatives from the Contracts Administration
Division and two non-voting technical advisors from Sanitation District staff.
The Evaluation Team scored the proposal on the established criterion as summarized in the table
below:

The selected firm presented a clear understanding of the project, the schedule risks, and an
innovative approach to the site layout. The proposal also demonstrated an effective plan on how to
execute the project and design and construct the new warehouse. The team and previous project
experience directly related to replacement of the Warehouse are well-suited to the scope and likely
challenges of the project.
Review of Fee Proposal and Negotiations:
Proposals were accompanied by sealed fee proposals. In accordance with the Purchasing
Ordinance, the fee proposal of only the highest-ranked firm was opened after approval by the
Orange County Sanitation District Page 3 of 4 Printed on 10/27/2020

Director of Engineering of the Evaluation Committee's recommendation.
Staff conducted negotiations with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. to clarify the requirements of the
Scope of Work, the assumptions used for the estimated level of effort, and the proposed approach to
meet the goals and objectives for the project. Five negotiation meetings were held with multiple
follow up a-mails and calls. The fee decreased due to revisions of the level of effort required by
several subconsultants and the reduction in number of project meetings.
Original Fee Negotiated Fee
Proposal
Total Hours 28,048 27,399
Total Fee $4,979,355 $4,876,455
The Consultant's fringe and overhead costs, which factor into the billing rate, have been
substantiated. The contract profit is 5.00%, which is based on an established formula based on the
Sanitation District's standard design agreements.
Based on the above, staff has determined that the final negotiated fee is fair and reasonable for the
level of effort required for this project and recommends award of the Professional Design Services
Agreement to Stantec Consulting Services, Inc.
CEQA
The Project is included in the Draft Facilities Master Plan Program Environmental Impact Report
(PEIR), State Clearinghouse Number 2019070998. The PEIR is scheduled for certification by the
Sanitation District Board of Directors in December 2020. A Notice of Determination will be filed within
five working days of certification.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Purchasing Ordinance. This item has been
budgeted, (Adopted Budget, Fiscal Years 2020-2021 and 2021-2022, Section 8, Page 72) and the project budget is
sufficient for the recommended action.

H. Reimbursable Direct Costs
The SANITATION DISTRICT will reimburse the CONSULTANT for reasonable
travel and business expenses as described in this section and further described in
Attachment "D" - Allowable Direct Costs to this Agreement. The reimbursement of
the above-mentioned expenses will be based on an "accountable plan" as
considered by Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The plan includes a combination of
reimbursements based upon receipts and a "per diem" component approved by
IRS. The most recent schedule of the per diem rates utilized by the SANITATION
DISTRICT can be found on the U.S. General Service Administration website at
http://www.gsa.gov/portal/category/104711#.
The CONSULTANT shall be responsible for the most economical and practical
means of management of reimbursable costs inclusive but not limited to travel,
lodging and meals arrangements. The SANITATION DISTRICT shall apply the
most economic and practical method of reimbursement which may include
reimbursements based upon receipts and/or "per diem" as deemed the most
practical.
CONSULTANT shall be responsible for returning to the SANITATION DISTRICT
any excess reimbursements after the reimbursement has been paid by the
SANITATION DISTRICT.
Travel and travel arrangements —Any travel involving airfare, overnight stays or
multiple day attendance must be approved by the SANITATION DISTRICT in
advance.
Local Travel is considered travel by the CONSULTANT within the SANITATION
DISTRICT general geographical area which includes Orange, Los Angeles,
Ventura, San Bernardino, Riverside, San Diego, Imperial and Kern Counties.
Automobile mileage is reimbursable if CONSULTANT is required to utilize
personal vehicle for local travel.
Lodging — Overnight stays will not be approved by the SANITATION DISTRICT for
local travel. However, under certain circumstances overnight stay may be allowed
at the discretion of the SANITATION DISTRICT based on reasonableness of
meeting schedules and the amount of time required for travel by the

CONSULTANT's sole cost and expense and with legal counsel approved by the
SANITATION DISTRICT, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), protect
and hold harmless the SANITATION DISTRICT and all of SANITATION DISTRICT's

PDSA PROJECT NO. P2-126
Revised 072619 WAREHOUSE, ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION AND 12KV
SERVICE CENTER REPLACEMENT AT PLANT NO. 2
Page 16 of 20
Parties"), from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, causes of action,
suits, arbitration awards, losses, judgments, fines, penalties, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, disbursements and court costs, and all
other professional, expert or CONSULTANT's fees and costs and the SANITATION
DISTRICT's general and administrative expenses; individually, a "Claim"; collectively,
"Claims") which may arise from or are in any manner related, directly or indirectly, to any
work performed, or any operations, activities, or services provided by CONSULTANT in
carrying out its obligations under this Agreement to the extent of the negligent,
recklessness and/or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT, its principals, officers, agents,
employees, CONSULTANT's suppliers, CONSULTANT, Subconsultants,
subcontractors, and/or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them, regardless
of any contributing negligence or strict liability of an Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to require CONSULTANT to indemnify
the Indemnified Parties from any Claim arising solely from:
(A) the active negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties; or
(B) a natural disaster or other act of God, such as an earthquake; or
(C) the independent action of a third party who is neither one of the Indemnified Parties
nor the CONSULTANT, nor its principal, officer, agent, employee, nor
CONSULTANT's supplier, CONSULTANT, Subconsultant, subcontractor, nor
anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them.
Exceptions (A) through (B) above shall not apply, and CONSULTANT shall, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, indemnify the Indemnified Parties, from Claims arising from
more than one cause if any such cause taken alone would otherwise result in the
obligation to indemnify hereunder.
CONSULTANT's liability for indemnification hereunder is in addition to any liability
CONSULTANT may have to the SANITATION DISTRICT for a breach by
CONSULTANT of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Under no circumstances
shall the insurance requirements and limits set forth in this Agreement be construed to
limit CONSULTANT's indemnification obligation or other liability hereunder. The terms
of this Agreement are contractual and the result of negotiation between the parties
hereto. Accordingly, any rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation,
California Civil Code Section 1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the
drafting party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.
23. DUTY TO DEFEND
The duty to defend hereunder is wholly independent of and separate from the duty to
indemnify and such duty to defend shall exist regardless of any ultimate liability of
CONSULTANT and shall be consistent with Civil Code Section 2782.8. Such defense
obligation shall arise immediately upon presentation of a Claim by any person if, without
regard to the merit of the Claim, such Claim could potentially result in an obligation to
indemnify one or more Indemnified Parties, and upon written notice of such Claim being
provided to CONSULTANT. Payment to CONSULTANT by any Indemnified Party or the
payment or advance of defense costs by any Indemnified Party shall not be a condition
PDSA PROJECT NO. P2-126
Revised 072619 WAREHOUSE, ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION AND 12KV
SERVICE CENTER REPLACEMENT AT PLANT NO. 2
Page 17 of 20
precedent to enforcing such Indemnified Party's rights to indemnification hereunder. In
the event a final judgment, arbitration, award, order, settlement, or other final resolution
expressly determines that the claim did not arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the
negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the CONSULTANT, to any extent,
then the DISTRICT will reimburse CONSULTANT for the reasonable costs of defending
the Indemnified Parties against such claims.
CONSULTANT's indemnification obligation hereunder shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement until such time as action against the Indemnified
Parties for such matter indemnified hereunder is fully and finally barred by the applicable
statute of limitations.
24. CONSULTANT PERFORMANCE
The CONSULTANT's performance shall be evaluated by the SANITATION DISTRICT.
A copy of the evaluation shall be sent to the CONSULTANT for comment. The
evaluation, together with the comments, shall be retained by the SANITATION
DISTRICT and may be considered in future CONSULTANT selection processes.
25. COMPLIANCE WITH SANITATION DISTRICT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
CONSULTANT shall comply with all SANITATION DISTRICT policies and procedures
including the Contractor Safety Standards, as applicable, all of which may be amended
from time to time.
26. CLOSEOUT

Agenda Report
File #: 2020-1304 Agenda Date: 11/4/2020 Agenda Item No: 9.
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Lan C. Wiborg, Director of Environmental Services
SUBJECT:
BIOSOLIDS THERMAL CONVERSION RFI UPDATE
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Information Item.
BACKGROUND
The 2019 Strategic Plan Biosolids Management Policy paper states that the Orange County
Sanitation District (Sanitation District) "will issue a request for information (RFI) to research and
evaluate available emerging markets such as biosolids-to-energy options or other biosolids recycling
operations within a 200-mile radius of the Sanitation District to potentially develop a scope of work
and minimum requirements for a future contract solicitation".
The Biosolids Master Plan strategy also calls for maintaining diversity of biosolids management
options by investigating emerging markets such as thermal conversion of biosolids. A biosolids-to-
energy option RFI was completed in April 2020. The results of the RFI process will be presented
along with anticipated next steps.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Maintain and adhere to appropriate internal planning documents (Strategic Plan, Biosolids
Master Plan)
• Safe, beneficial reuse of Biosolids
• Comply with environmental permit requirements
PROBLEM
The Sanitation District has completed the RFI process and is ready to move to the next step. New
and anticipated regulations may limit future options for biosolids recycling and there are only a small
number of established Biosolids Thermal Conversion contractors with limited capacity.

File #: 2020-1304 Agenda Date: 11/4/2020 Agenda Item No: 9.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
The Sanitation District plans to strategically establish contracts with Biosolids Thermal Conversion
operators to secure capacity for beneficial reuse and/or disposal of biosolids in preparation for new
and anticipated regulations.
TIMING CONCERNS
Several Biosolids Thermal Conversion Operations will be coming online in 2021, and the Sanitation
District would like to secure capacity and demonstrate effectiveness of these technologies in advance
of new and anticipated regulations.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
The Sanitation District may be facing inadequate offsite biosolids management capacity if future
environmental regulations limit biosolids recycling options.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The RFI found two viable Biosolids Thermal Conversion options that have available near-term and
long-term capacity that do not require guaranteed biosolids tonnages. These facilities have been
funded for construction independent of the Sanitation District's potential financial contributions,
making these options low risk.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
ACTIVATED SLUDGE PROCESS—A secondary biological wastewater treatment process where bacteria reproduce at a high
rate with the introduction of excess air or oxygen and consume dissolved nutrients in the wastewater.
BENTHOS —The community of organisms, such as sea stars, worms, and shrimp, which live on, in, or near the seabed, also
known as the benthic zone.
BIOCHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND (BOD) — The amount of oxygen used when organic matter undergoes decomposition by
microorganisms.Testing for BOD is done to assess the amount of organic matter in water.
BIOGAS—A gas that is produced by the action of anaerobic bacteria on organic waste matter in a digester tank that can be used
as a fuel.
BIOSOLIDS—Biosolids are nutrient rich organic and highly treated solid materials produced by the wastewater treatment process.
This high-quality product can be recycled as a soil amendment on farmland or further processed as an earth-like product for
commercial and home gardens to improve and maintain fertile soil and stimulate plant growth.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP) — Projects for repair, rehabilitation, and replacement of assets. Also includes
treatment improvements, additional capacity, and projects for the support facilities.
COLIFORM BACTERIA—A group of bacteria found in the intestines of humans and other animals, but also occasionally found
