FROM:Robert Thompson, General Manager Originator: Mike Dorman, Director of Engineering SUBJECT: NEWPORT BEACH PUMP STATION PRESSURIZATION IMPROVEMENTS, PROJECT NO. 5-68 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to: Approve a contingency increase of $65,625 (7%)to the existing construction contract with Innovative Construction Solutions for Newport Beach Pump Station Pressurization Improvements,Project No.5- 68,for a total contract amount not to exceed $937,500;and a total construction contingency of $159,375 (17%). BACKGROUND The Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)owns and operates eight pump stations in the city of Newport Beach.Six of these pump stations (Bitter Point,Crystal Cove,A Street,15th Street,Lido, and Rocky Point)have inadequate venting for the wet wells,which can lead to the escape of odorous and corrosive gasses.This project will install passive air scrubbers to treat the foul air to below nuisance levels before releasing the air into the atmosphere.The project will also add a concrete slab and electrical conduits to accommodate a future chemical addition at the 15th Street Pump Station to reduce generation of hydrogen sulfide in downstream force mains.A construction contract was awarded to Innovative Construction Solutions in February 2023 to incorporate these modifications. The project is approximately 70% complete. RELEVANT STANDARDS ·Ensure the public’s money is wisely spent ·Commitment to safety & reducing risk in all operations ·Operate and maintain facilities to minimize impacts on surrounding communities,including odor, noise, and lighting PROBLEM During the course of construction,an unforeseen change was required to revise the odor scrubber design for the Bitter Point Pump Station,resulting in additional scrubber units and materials.This change order consumed approximately $60,000 of the total construction contract contingency of $93,750.Additional change orders have resulted in a current remaining contingency of less than $13,000.The remaining contingency is anticipated to be insufficient to cover potential unknownOrange County Sanitation District Printed on 2/27/2024Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:2024-3498 Agenda Date:3/6/2024 Agenda Item No:2. $13,000.The remaining contingency is anticipated to be insufficient to cover potential unknown construction change orders for the remainder of the construction duration. PROPOSED SOLUTION Approve a contingency increase of $65,625 (7%)to the construction contract for a total contingency of $159,375 (17%).This increase will provide additional funds in the event of additional necessary changes for unknown conditions. TIMING CONCERNS The project is currently in construction and is close to exhausting the original contingency amount. Additional contingency funds are requested to authorize future change orders if required to complete the remaining construction activities without incurring contractor delay costs. RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION If the contract contingency is not increased,it is anticipated that the project may not have sufficient funds for future unknown change orders,which would bring the project to a halt until additional funding is approved. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS February 2023 -Approved a Construction Contract to Innovative Construction Solutions for Newport Beach Pump Station Pressurization Improvements,Project No.5-68,for an amount not to exceed $937,500; and approved a contingency of $93,750 (10%). ADDITIONAL INFORMATION N/A CEQA The Project is included in the Facilities Master Plan 2020 Program Environmental Impact Report, State Clearinghouse Number 2019070998.

Furthermore, CONTRACTOR shall maintain all of the foregoing insurance coverages in full force and effect throughout the warranty period, commencing on the date of Final Acceptance.

FROM:Robert Thompson, General Manager Originator: Mike Dorman, Director of Engineering SUBJECT: 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 December 31, 2023. BACKGROUND The Engineering Program involves awarding and managing multiple construction and consulting contracts.In 2008,the Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)Board of Directors began authorizing contingencies along with construction and consulting contracts,allowing the General Manager to approve construction change orders and amendments to consulting contracts up to the amount of the authorized 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 December 31,2023.This report is updated quarterly and includes a summary of the General Manager approved contract contingencies among other key performance indicators. ATTACHMENT The following attachment(s)may be viewed on-line at the OC San website (www.ocsan.gov)with the complete agenda package: ·Engineering Program Contract Performance Report for the period ending December 31, 2023 ·Presentation EY: tk Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 2/28/2024Page 1 of 1 powered by Legistar™ Engineering Program Contract Performance Report For the Period Ending December 31, 2023 1 DATE: March 6, 2024 TO: Orange County Sanitation District Board of Directors FROM: Rob Thompson, General Manager Through: Mike Dorman, Director of Engineering This report summarizes the status, activities, and performance of construction contracts and consultant agreements. This report also identifies the names and status of projects being performed under master budgets for planning studies, research, small construction projects, Operations & Maintenance capital projects and information technology projects. As of 12/31/2023, Orange County Sanitation District (OC San) Engineering Department manages 125 active projects, with project budgeting totaling close to $3.5 billion. These projects are in various project phases, ranging from Project Development to Closeout. The graphic below shows the number of projects in each of the project phases. This report is organized into six parts, as follows. Detailed tables can be found in the appendix section of the report. Part 1 – Construction Contracts Page 2 Part 2 – Engineering Professional Services Agreements Page 4 Part 3 – Master Budget Projects Page 6 Part 4 – Supplemental Engineering Services Contract Page 7 Part 5 – Programming Professional Services Contract Page 9 Part 6 – On-Call Services Agreements Page 11 Appendix (Tables 1 through 13) Page 13 Engineering Program Contract Performance Report For the Period Ending December 31, 2023 2 PART 1 - CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS Construction Contracts As shown in the graph below, there are currently 53 active construction contracts totaling $867 Million. The active construction contracts, include 34 plant projects,12 collections projects and seven other projects (maintenance, small capital and research projects). Table 1 in the appendix lists the Board-awarded construction contracts active as of December 31, 2023, while Tables 2 and 3 list the General Manager-awarded and Operations Committee-awarded construction contracts. The General Manager may award contracts up to $150,000 and task orders up to $500,000. The table below summarizes the number of active and closed construction contracts and total contract amounts. See Tables 4, 5 and 6 in the appendix for a list of the closed contracts. Type Contracts Total Contract Amount Active Board-Awarded Construction Contracts 46 $865,606,570 Active Ops Committee Awarded Construction Contracts 3 $462,929 Active GM Awarded Construction Contracts 4 $354,965 Closed Board-Awarded Construction Contracts 0 $0 Closed Committee-Awarded Construction Contracts 0 $0 Closed GM Awarded Construction Contracts 0 $0 Plant Projects 34 Contracts Collection Projects 12 Contracts Other 7 Contracts $205 Million $651 Million $11 Million 35 Unique Contractors Engineering Program Contract Performance Report For the Period Ending December 31, 2023 3 Cumulative Change Order Rates When the OC San Board of Directors 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, this report's change order performance charts 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. Engineering Program Contract Performance Report For the Period Ending December 31, 2023 4 PART 2 – ENGINEERING PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENTS Professional Design and Related Service Agreements OC San engages engineering consultants through Professional Service Agreements (PSAs), Professional Design Services Agreements (PDSAs), and Professional Construction Services Agreements (PCSAs). 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. There are currently 52 Professional Design and Related Service Agreements (23 individual firms) with total agreement amount of $234,176,544. Table 7 in the appendix provides a detailed list of Professional Design and Related Service Agreements. Master Agreements Master Agreements are issued to a pool of pre-qualified consultants for smaller projects. On those smaller projects, OC San solicits task order proposals from interested firms and awards a task order to the most qualified consultant. There are currently five sets of Master Agreements. • 2017 Master Agreements for Planning Studies (expired) • 2018 Master Professional Design Services Agreements (expired) • 2020 Master Agreements for Planning Studies • 2021 Master Professional Design Services Agreements • Agreement for Design Installation, Implementation and Maintenance of a Process Control System Engineering Program Contract Performance Report For the Period Ending December 31, 2023 5 The 2017 Master Agreements for Planning Studies and the 2018 Master Professional Design Services Agreements 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 OC San Ordinance No. OC SAN-61 to $500,000 per task order. Below is a summary of the various master agreements with active task orders. See Table 8 in the appendix for a detailed list of task orders.

The major revenue sources are as follows: •Service Fees•Permit User Fees•Capital Facilities Capacity Charges (CFCC) •Property Taxes•Interest•Other Revenue•Debt Proceeds FY2024-25 FY2025-26 Service Fees – User fees are ongoing fees for service paid by customers connected to the sewer system. A property owner, or user, does not pay user fees until connected to the sewer system and receiving services. Once connected, a user is responsible for his share of the system’s costs, both fixed and variable, in proportion to his demand on the system. These fees are for both Single Family Residences (SFR) and Multiple Family Residences (MFR). FY 2024-25 will be the second year of the most recent five-year sewer service fee rate schedule to be approved by the Board. The SFR rate (the underlying basis for all sewer rates) will increase by 3.6 percent ($13) to $371 in FY 2024-25, and 3.5 percent ($13) to $384 in FY 2025-26. These rates are still well below the average annual sewer rate currently being charged throughout the state. $335.5M $347.7M 2 FY2024-25 FY2025-26 Permit User Fees – Fees paid by large industrial and commercial properties owners connected to the sewer system. These fees are for the owner’s share of the system’s costs, both fixed and variable, in proportion to his demand on the system. Since the inception of the Permit User Fee program in 1970, users of OC San’s system that discharge high volumes or high strength wastewater are required to obtain a discharge permit and pay for the full cost of service. $17.2M $18.0M Capital Facilities Capacity Charges (CFCC) – Capital Facilities Capacity Charge is a one-time, non-discriminatory charge imposed at the time a building or structure is newly connected to OC San’s system, directly or indirectly, or an existing structure or category of use is expanded or increased. This charge pays for OC San facilities in existence at the time the charge is imposed, or to pay for new facilities to be constructed in the future, that are of benefit to the property being charged. $20.4M $20.7M Property Taxes – The County is permitted by State law (Proposition 13) to levy taxes at 1% of full market value (at time of purchase) and can increase the assessed value no more than 2% per year. OC San receives a share of the basic levy proportionate to what was received in the 1976 to 1978 period less $3.5 million, the amount that represents the State’s permanent annual diversion from special districts to school districts that began in 1992-93. OC San’s share of this revenue is dedicated for the payment of debt service. $130.5M $133.1M Interest – Interest earnings are generated from the investment of accumulated reserves consisting of a cash flow/contingency, a capital improvement, a renewal/replacement, and a self-insurance reserve. $17.4M $15.3M Other Revenue – Other revenue includes solids handling and capital assessments from the Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD); and O&M sewer services provided to IRWD, the Santa Ana Watershed Protection Authority (SAWPA), Capital Improvement Program reimbursements from OCWD, and the Sunset Beach Sanitary District. $19.5M $30.5M 3 FY2024-25 FY2025-26 Debt Proceeds – Certificates of Participation (COPs) are OC San’s primary mechanism for financing capital projects. COPs are repayment obligations based on a lease or installment sale agreement. COPs are viewed by the State of California as a share in an installment arrangement where OC San serves as the purchaser. No new debt issuances are projected in the near-term. $0.0M $0.0M Financing If it is necessary that OC San utilize debt financing to meet its total obligations and to meet projected construction schedules, OC San uses long-term borrowing (Certificates of Participation (COP)) for capital improvements that cannot be financed from current revenue. Before any new debt is issued, the impact of debt service payments on total annual fixed costs is analyzed. No new debt issuance is currently being planned. OC San Maintains its AAA Rating OC San maintains ratings of “AAA” from Standards and Poor and “AA” from Fitch. A triple A rating is the highest obtainable for any governmental agency. In order to maintain this rating, OC San adheres to its 2021 Debt Policy and coverage ratio requirements. This Board-adopted policy serves as the agency’s guide in the management of existing debt and in the issuance of future debt. OC San Has Contractual Covenants OC San has contractual covenants within the existing COP agreements which require minimum coverage ratios of 1.25. The minimum coverage ratio is the ratio of net annual revenues available for debt service requirements to total annual debt service requirements for all senior lien COP debt. The coverage ratio for senior lien COP debt was approved at 4.35 for FY 2024-25. Orange County Sanitation District Reserve Summary - FY 2023-24 Orange County Sanitation District (OC San) has a Board of Directors Reserve Policy that sets forth seven criteria to be used to determine its reserve level. As part of the OC San financial and operating process, we have developed a Reserve Policy which governs the establishment of our reserve level and the use of those funds. To ensure an adequate and diverse reserve policy, we have established seven different criteria. These are not seven different reserves, but seven criteria used to set the total reserve level. Reserves can only be used with the approval of the Board of Directors. Below is a brief summary of the OC San Reserve Criteria. Reserve Policy Summary Non-Discretionary 1) Debt Covenants and Other Requirements – Required by OC San bondholders – $76 million – RESTRICTED This level is set by various bond covenants. As OC San issues debt, it is required to maintain certain levels of reserves held specifically for repayment of that debt and cannot be reduced or used prior to repayment of all outstanding debt issuances. 2) “Dry Period” – Property Tax Payments – 50% of Operating Costs – $108 million The largest portion of OC San revenues are user fees, approximately $325 million. These fees are listed on and collected through the County property tax bill. Since we receive payments twice each year, we hold funds in reserve specifically to pay operating expenses pending receipt of those payments. 3) “Dry Period” – Property Tax Payments – 100% of August Debt Service Costs – $19 million The largest portion of OC San revenues are user fees, approximately $325 million. These fees are listed on and collected through the County property tax bill. Since we receive payments twice each year, we hold funds in reserve specifically to pay debt service pending the receipt of those payments. Discretionary 4) Operating Budget – 10% of the total Operating Budget as a Contingency – $21 million We hold ten percent of our operating budget as an operating contingency for non-recurring and unanticipated expenditures. 5) Capital Improvement Budget – 50% of the average 10-year CIP Program – $153 million OC San currently has a ten-year, $3.1 billion Capital Improvement effort. We hold the equivalent of 5% of that total as a contingency specifically related to these Capital Improvement Program efforts. 6) Rehabilitation and Refurbishment – $75 million In 2002, OC San established a reserve level related to rehabilitation efforts at $50 million based on the rehabilitation or replacement costs at that time. Although the total costs for rehabilitation or replacement has increased substantially since 2002 as a result of the move to Full Secondary Treatment and the Construction of GWRS, this reserve guideline has been increased to $75 million. It will continue to increase 2% annually. 7) Catastrophic loss / Self-insurance – $100 million OC San is Self-Insured for Catastrophic Loss. $100 million of OC San’s total reserves are related to holding funds for this category. Although OC San now has almost $12 billion in asset replacement value and this level has been increased, it is potentially under-funded.
