D tm tl ~ng'neer ng epar en Construction Division ISSUE: All work has been completed on the Concord Revenue Meters Project (DP 20013), and this project can now be closed out. BACKGROUND: Improvements to ori gi nal meteri ng and sampl i ng facil iti es for Concord sewage flow were required to increase the accuracy and reliability of those facilities. The improvements consi sted of the install ati on of two Di stri ct purchased Venturi flow meters, one at the existing Concord Pump Station and the other on the existing trunk sewer that serves the North Concord area. The North Concord flow meter was installed in a new th ree 1 evel concrete vaul t. In additi on, the exi sti ng sampl i ng system was modified at the Concord Pump Station, and a new automatic sampling system was installed at the new North Concord Metering Station. The Contractor, Pacific .Mechani cal Corporati on (PMC) of Concord, commenced work on September 19, 1986, and substantially completed the work by October 9, 1987. The original contract completion date of December 31, 1986, was extended to October 9, 1987, primarily due to problems that were encountered in working next to an existing 10-inch Southern Pacific high pressure (SPHP) fuel line and to PG&E delays in constructing permanent electrical power service to the new North Meter Station. The project was accepted by the Board of Directors on December 3, 1987. PMC's original contract was for $343,000. There were eleven (11) change orders issued on the project. Additional work included use of a soldier pile and lagging shoring system which was required in lieu of the previously planned sheet pile system to properly protect the SPHP fuel pipeline. This pipeline was discovered to be closer to the proposed North Concord Meter Station than anticipated. Miscellaneous additional modifications to the Venturi flow meters, sump pump, sample pumps, and the installation of a domestic water supply to the North Meter Station were also required. The total contract amount paid to PMC was $384,773.87. There were two additional budget allocations made from the Treatment Plant Contingency Account by the General Manager-Chief Engineer subsequent to contract award. A $40,000 authorization was made to cover a project over-run due primarily to the cost associated with the unanticipated soldier pile installation change order. The Board was advised of thi s over-run at the June 18, 1987 meeti ng. A subsequent $9,000 authorizati on to add a new ci rcul ar chart recorder, flow pace the sampl ers, relocate the sampl e pump piping, and perform other miscellaneous electrical modifications was also made.

The amended project budget, including General Manager-Chief Engineer contingency authorizations, was $708,850. The total completed project cost is $707,114, which is $1,736 less than the budget. Staff is closing out the project account which will result in $1,736 being returned to the Treatment Plant Program. The cost of construction, including the purchase of the meters, is being equally funded by the District and the City of Concord. Concord will now be billed for their final share of the project costs since the final project costs have been 1 dent1f1 ed.

COLLECTION SYSTEM 1 DATE December 28, 1988 TYPE OF ACTION AUTHORIZE EXCEPTION sum~Tf8 Bl. Rei ndl Assistant Engineer INITIA TING DEPT./DIV. Plant Operations Department ISSUE: Immediate replacement of the diesel fuel oil storage tank at the Collection System Operations Department facil ity is requi red at this time in order to minimize potential ground water contamination caused by a newly discovered tank leak. BACKGROUND: The District must comply with recent federal, state, and local regul ations requi ring the operation and inspection of all underground storage tanks. Plant Maintenance Engineering has establ ished a Capital Improvement Project D.P. 10050 to monitor and replace underground storage tanks as required. This project is included in the FY 88/89 Capital Improvement Budget (TP-76). The annual tank testing of the nine District underground storage tanks was completed as of September 16, 1988. All of the underground storage tanks passed these tests. On December 14, 1988 District forces noticed an irregularity during the daily inventory monitoring of the 3000 gallon diesel fuel storage tank at the Collection System Operations Department facility. Further investigation indicated a fail ure of the diesel fuel tank shell. Due to the tank wall fail ure and high ground water levels, the possibility of residual product leakage and soil contamination is present even though the tank has been emptied. The District as owner of this facility is responsible for the clean up of any soil contam i nat i on and wo ul d be 1 i ab 1 e for any toxi c substances d i sch a rged at the site. The County Health Services Department was immediately notified as required by 1 aw . While the extent of the contamination is presently undetermined, it can only be minimized by prompt fuel tank removal and site cl ean up. Di stri ct staff has al ready purchased a repl acement 3000 gallon double wall tank as requi red by current regulations and has obtained informal bids from two contractors for removal of the existing tank and installation of the new tank. Portions of the requi red work woul d be performed by Collection System Operations Department forces. The time requi red to prepare formal bid documents, advertise and award the contract for the tank repl acement project is estimated to be 30 to 45 days. Action by the Board at this time will prevent additional contamination of the surrounding soils caused by migration of ground water thereby reducing the scope of the cleanup activity and the impact to District activities at the Collection System Operations DepartmeQ~EwEDAN ECOMMENDEDFORBOARDAcnON SUBJECT PAGE 2 DATE December 28, 1988 The cost of removal and replacement of the diesel tank is estimated to be $30,000 excl uding contaminated soil and ground water cleanup, the extent of which is unknown. If additional funds are requi red to cover the cost of site cl eanup and contaminated soil disposal, an allocation from the General Improvements Contingency Account will be requested. District counsel has previously informed staff that Section 20806 of the Public Contracts Code provides for the Board to waive the formal bidding requirements in emergencies. Staff feels that public interests are best served by prompt action to minimize soil contamination and public health concerns by installing a new tank that meets all current regulatory req ui rements. AUTHORIZE EXCEPTION TO THE DISTRICT STANDARD BIDDING PROCEDURE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF AN UNDERGROUND DIESEL STORAGE TANK AT COLLECTION SYSTEM OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT POSITION PAPER OF 2 RECOMMENDATION: Authorize exception to the Di stri ct standard bi ddi ng procedure for the replacement of the underground diesel storage tank at the Collection System Operations Department. --------. 1302B- 9/85 ------ --------~-------- ------~--- ----- ------- - ---------------
