BIDS AND AWARDS a. Type of Action: AUTHORIZE AWARD Subject: AUTHORIZE AWARD OF A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO DEL MONTE ELECTRIC COMPANY, INC., FOR THE 2,400 -VOLT FEEDER REPLACEMENT PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 6154 Submitted By: Initiating Dept ✓Div.: James L. Belcher, Senior Engineer Plant Operations /Maintenan RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION. l J. J. Kelly General M ISSUE: On November 14, 2000, sealed bids were received and opened for construction of the 2,400 -Volt Feeder Replacement Project, District Project (DP) 6154. The Board of Directors must authorize award of the contract or reject bids within 50 days of the bid opening. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize award of a construction contract to Del Monte Electric Company, Inc. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Approximately $60,000, including bid price, contingency, and construction management. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Reject all bids. BACKGROUND: On February 20, 1998, electrical feeder MVMC 42 -A1 failed due to an insulation breakdown (see Attachment 1). This feeder supplies power from Substation 40 to one of the two original 250 - horsepower, applied -water pumps supplying water to the Filter Plant. Although these units are currently in a back -up role to the recently installed 75- horsepower pumps, they are required to maintain reliable Filter Plant capacity, particularly as flows increase. Del Monte Electric Company, Inc., has satisfactorily completed several projects for the District in the past, and is currently working on two projects at the treatment plant. Del Monte's on -site status and familiarity with this particular project area enabled them to provide a competitive bid. An informal survey of electrical contractors revealed that this project size was too small to attract their interest in this robust electrical construction market. 11/30/00 S:\ Correspondence \POSPAPR \2000 \DP6154.Sam.wpd Page 1 of 5 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: December 7, 2000 Subject: AUTHORIZE AWARD OF A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO DEL MONTE ELECTRIC COMPANY, INC., FOR THE 2,400 -VOLT FEEDER REPLACEMENT PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 6154 The project was advertised on October 31 and November 6, 2000. One bid was received for $36,255 and publicly opened on November 14, 2000. The engineer's estimate for the construction cost was $50,000. A summary of the bid is shown in Attachment 2. Plant Operations Department staff conducted a commercial evaluation and technical evaluation of the bids, and it has been determined that Del Monte Electric Company, Inc., is the lowest responsible bidder with a bid amount of $36,255. The additional allocation of funds required to complete this project is $35,000, as shown in Attachment 3. The current total estimated project cost is $60,000. This project is included in the Fiscal Year 2000 -2001 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) on pages TP -51 through TP -52. Staff has conducted a cash -flow evaluation of the Sewer Construction Fund and concluded that adequate funds are available for this project. Staff has determined that this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines, Section 18.3, since it involves replacement of an existing recycled water facility component with no increase in capacity. Approval of this project will establish the Board of Directors' independent finding that this project is exempt from CEQA. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize award of a construction contract in the amount of $36,255 for the construction of the 2,400 -Volt Feeder Replacement Project, DP 6154, to Del Monte Electric Company, Inc., the lowest responsible bidder. 11/30/00 S:\ Correspondence \POSPAPR \2000 \DP6154.Sam.wpd Page 2 of 5 PROJECT SITE N 1 0 150 300 FEEr Q 0 / U� o / 0 Central Contra Costa Attachment Sanitary District 2,400 VOLT FEEDER REPLACEMENT DISTRICT PROJECT 6154 1 1, PROJECT LOCATION Paae 3 of 5 Central Contra Costa Sanitary District ATTACHMENT 2 SUMMARY OF BIDS Project: 2,400 -VOLT FEEDER Date: November 20, 2000 REPLACEMENT PROJECT, DP 6154 Location: Martinez, California Engr.

Type of Action: AUTHORIZE AGREEMENTS subject: AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE AGREEMENTS WITH URS CORPORATION AND BROWN AND CALDWELL TO PROVIDE CONTINUATION OF DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE DOUGHERTY TUNNEL AND TRUNK SEWER PROJECT, DP 5902 Submitted By: Initiating Dept ✓Div.: Curtis W. Swanson, Division Manager Engineering /Environmental Sqr<ices REVIEWfl AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: C. Swanson A. Farrell General Man ISSUE: Board of Directors' authorization is required for the General Manager to execute professional service agreements or agreement revisions for amounts greater than $ 50,000. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager to execute agreements with URS Corporation and Brown and Caldwell for continuation of design services. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The cost ceilings for the design services agreements with URS Corporation and Brown and Caldwell will be increased by $92,600 and $142,000 respectively. The District will be reimbursed for the cost of these additional services by Windemere BLC, one of the two principal developers of the Dougherty Valley. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Project delays and concerns by residents and officials of San Ramon about the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer Project necessitate an increase in cost ceilings for design services being provided by Brown and Caldwell and URS Corporation. BACKGROUND: On May 21, 1998, the District Board of Directors approved an agreement with Windemere Ranch Partners, predecessor to Windemere BLC, to prepare preliminary and final designs for the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer Project. Also on May 21, 1998, the Board approved agreements with Woodward Clyde consultants for tunnel design and geotechnical engineering services, and Brown and Caldwell for trunk sewer design services for the Dougherty Project. 11/30/00 U:\ PPr \Raposa \B &C.URS.Agrmts.CWS.wpd Page 1 of 2 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: December 7, 2000 sub>ect: AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE AGREEMENTS WITH URS CORPORATION AND BROWN AND CALDWELL TO PROVIDE CONTINUATION OF DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE DOUGHERTY TUNNEL AND TRUNK SEWER PROJECT, DP 5902 The original schedule for the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer Project called for construction to start in 1999. Because of concerns about the project raised by residents and city officials of San Ramon and schedule changes requested by the developer, it is necessary to increase the cost ceilings of the two consulting agreements for design of the tunnel and trunk sewer project. Both URS Corporation, successor to Woodward Clyde Consultants, and Brown and Caldwell will be needed to provide continued design services and technical consultation related to the project. Staff has negotiated cost - reimbursement agreements for the additional design which will increase the cost ceilings of the current agreements by $92,600 for URS Corporation and $142,000 for Brown and Caldwell. The revised total cost ceilings for URS Corporation and Brown and Caldwell will be $749,800 and $334,800 respectively. The tunnel and trunk sewer project is included in the 2000 -2001 Capital Improvement Budget starting on page CS -35. The current total project cost estimate for both project elements is approximately $17.9 million. The cost of planning, design, and construction of the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer are being reimbursed by the developers of Dougherty Valley. Project costs are being reimbursed initially by Windemere BLC. Windemere may receive rebates from other developers as future tributary developments are constructed in the area. The terms and conditions of reimbursement of the project costs will be in accordance with an agreement between Windemere BLC and the District. The environmental impacts of construction and operation of the tunnel and trunk sewer facilities were addressed in Contra Costa County's 1996 Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report, Windemere - Phase I and Gale Ranch - Phase II (SCH# 96012003). The District's Board of Directors reviewed the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) during it deliberations regarding annexation of the Windemere property in June 1997 and established its independent finding that the environmental impacts of providing wastewater utility service can be reduced to less than significant levels through implementation of the mitigation measures required of the project by Contra Costa County. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager to execute agreements with URS Corporation and Brown and Caldwell with cost ceilings of $92,600 and $142,000 respectively to provide continued design services for the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer project, District Project 5902. 11/30/00 U:\PPr \Raposa \B &C.0 RS.
