WELCOME & OPENING REMARKS: General Manager James D. Herberg welcomed the Directors and distributed a 2017 Board Tour Guide Map. TOUR: Director of Engineering Rob Thompson and Director of Operations and Maintenance Ed Torres departed with the tour group at 3: 10 p.m. which proceeded to the following: Plant No. 2: The tour visited the central generation system and discussed future planned engine rebuilds -these engines are vitally important as they produce about 2/3 of the energy utilized on-site by our facilities. The current demolition and abandonment work and the current construction of the Ocean Outfall System Rehabilitation project, which includes rehabilitating the 84 and 120-inch pipelines that travel along the Santa Ana River trail, were viewed. This project will also modify the Ocean Outfall Booster Station wet well and junction boxes to accommodate lower flows to the ocean due to the Groundwater Replenishment System final expansion (this portion of the project is scheduled to begin next year). Plant No. 1: The tour visited the Sludge Dewatering and Odor Control facility which includes the new Centrifuges. This project will reduce the overall cost of processing and hauling our daily production of biosolids. ADJOURNMENT: At 4:30 p.m . the Special Board Meeting was adjourned until the Regular Board Meeting on December 20, 2017 at 6:00 p.m . 12/20/2017 Minutes of Board Meeting Page 3 of 3
