MEMO"
General
ISSUE: On June 22, 2006, no public bids were received for the construction of the
A -Line Interceptor Rehabilitation Project, District Project No. 5806. Public Contract
Code Section 20805 allows the District to dispense with competitive bidding and award
the contract on a negotiated basis when no bids are received. The Board of Directors'
authorization is required for the General Manager to execute professional services
agreements in an amount greater than $50,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Award a construction contract for a negotiated price, and
authorize the General Manager to execute the Contract Documents and Consultant
Agreement.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Approximately $647,000, including design, negotiated price,
contingency, and construction management.
ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Reject the negotiated cost and rebid the project
next year, which is not recommended.
BACKGROUND: In September 2004, V &A Consulting Engineers Inc. (V &A) was
retained for the inspection of the A -Line Relief Interceptor from Buchanan Fields Golf
Course to the treatment plant. This inspection revealed that the PVC lining protecting
portions of the pipe at the joints and in various structures had failed. In addition, while

performing the district -wide sewer TV inspection program, several other PVC lining
failures at the pipe joints were discovered in the Walnut Creek Bypass Interceptor.
The A -Line Interceptor Rehabilitation Project will renovate the PVC linings for 13,000
linear feet of 66 -, 78 -, 96 -, and 102 -inch sewer lines in the cities of Walnut Creek and
Martinez (see Attachment 1 for map). This construction involves the relamination of
PVC joint strips, relamination of various PVC failures, the coating of slide gates, and
also involves working inside active sewers. A limited number of contractors are
qualified to perform this type of work. Rehabilitation of the sewers in easements will
also involve close cooperation with various customers for site access and restoration.
V &A and District staff prepared plans and specifications for the project. The Engineer's
estimate for construction of the A -Line Interceptor Rehabilitation Project is $500,000.
This project was advertised on June 2 and June 7, 2006. The bid opening was
scheduled for June 22, 2006, but no public bids were submitted for the project.
California Public Code Section 20805 states that if no bids are received, the District
Board may dispense with competitive bidding and award the contract on a negotiated
basis. The selection of the contractor through this negotiated process does not have to
be based on the lowest negotiated cost. It allows the District to take all aspects of the
construction project into account, such as safety (especially confined space), prior work
experience, references, schedule and cost.
Two contractors with the specialized experience to perform this type of work were
contacted by staff. A price of $419,125, which compares favorably with the Engineer's
estimate, was negotiated with F. D. Thomas out of Central Point, Oregon. Staff
conducted a technical and commercial evaluation and contacted references on
F. D. Thomas and determined that the firm is qualified to perform the work. A second
quote for the work in the amount of $1,085,507 was received from Ace Restoration and
Waterproofing, Inc.
The District will administer the construction contract and will provide contract
administration, survey, office engineering, and submittal review. V &A assisted in the
preparation of the plans and specifications for the A -Line Interceptor Rehabilitation
Project. Due to their satisfactory performance and specific knowledge of the project,
V &A is recommended to provide inspection services and construction support for the
construction. A cost reimbursement amendment with a cost ceiling of $75,000 has
been negotiated with V &A Consulting Engineers. The funds required to complete this

project, as shown in Attachment 2, are $597,000. The total cost of the A -Line
Interceptor Rehabilitation Project is anticipated to be $647,000.
This project is included in the fiscal year 2005 -2006 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB)
on pages CS -64 through CS -67. Staff has conducted a cash flow analysis of the Sewer
Construction Fund and concluded that adequate funds are available for this project.
Staff has concluded that this project is exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301, since it involves
only repairs of existing facilities with negligible or no expansion of capacity.
Authorization of the construction contract for this project will establish the Board of
Directors' independent finding that the project is exempt from CEQA.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Award a construction contract to F. D. Thomas
for a negotiated price of $419,125 in accordance with Public Contract Code
Section 20805 for the construction of the A -Line Interceptor Rehabilitation Project,
District Project No. 5806, to F. D. Thomas, and authorize the General Manager to
execute the Contract Documents. Authorize cost reimbursement amendment with a
cost ceiling of $75,000 for inspection services and construction support of the A -Line

ISSUE: On July 11, 2006, sealed bids were received and opened for the construction
of the Headquarters Office Building HVAC Improvements and Roof Replacement
Project, District Project No. 8205 and the Plant Operations HVAC Improvements
Project, District Project No. 7228. The Board of Directors must award the contract or
reject bids within 50 days of the bid opening. The Board of Directors' authorization is
required for the General Manager to execute professional services agreements in an
amount greater than $50,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Award a construction contract and authorize the General
Manager to execute the Contract Documents and authorize a professional services
agreement.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Approximately $4,956,000, including design, bid price,
contingency, and construction management.
ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: 1) Award of Contract — The alternative would
be to reject all bids; 2) Professional Services — The professional services agreement
with AEPC Group is for construction support services (shop drawing review and
responding to design clarification). The District does not have the staff available to
provide these services. In addition, the construction support services are normally

AGREEMENT WITH AEPC GROUP, FOR THE HEADQUARTERS OFFICE
BUILDING HVAC IMPROVEMENTS AND ROOF REPLACEMENT PROJECT,
DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 8205 AND THE PLANT OPERATIONS BUILDING HVAC
IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 7228
provided to the design firm to maintain consistency and ensure that the design intent
is met.
BACKGROUND: The HOB was built in 1983 and was equipped with two prepackaged
rooftop HVAC units to cool the building and one boiler to heat the building. The units
have reached the end of their useful life and have become increasingly unreliable.
Breakdowns have become more frequent, resulting in uncomfortable working conditions
and increasing maintenance costs. Additionally, "hot spots" have been created due to
increased occupancy levels and the introduction of personal computers throughout the
building. Concurrently, the Plant Operations Division (POD) has identified the need to
replace the absorption steam chiller, which has also reached the end of its useful life.
This chiller provides cooling for the offices at POD. Staff also identified several "hot
spots" in POD that need improved cooling. The project includes replacing the HVAC
system that serves the Board Room. In addition to the HVAC improvements, the roof
on HOB and Board Room will be replaced. The existing roof systems are over 20 -years
old and its replacement has been deferred for several years to allow for the better
coordination with the new HVAC equipment/roof penetrations.
The Board authorized an agreement with AEPC Group in September 2005 to evaluate
and provide an integrated design that addressed the undersized and inefficient HVAC
systems, and replace the roof. The approved final design proposes to construct a
central chiller plant for HOB and expand the existing POD chiller to accommodate the
current and future cooling needs for both buildings. New digital HVAC controls will be
installed throughout both buildings and tied into an Energy Management System that
will provide more efficient control and a reduction in operating costs. Additional scope
items include electrical upgrades to HOB, modifying cooling zones, weatherproofing the
exterior walls of HOB, and office space remodeling on the second floor of HOB to
optimize utilization of space.
AEPC Group prepared the plans and technical specifications for the project. The
Engineer's estimate for construction is $3,100,000. This project was advertised on
June 7, 12, and 13, 2006. Three (3) sealed bids ranging from $3,693,180. to
$4,985,000 were received and publicly opened on July 11, 2006. The Engineering
Department conducted a technical and commercial review of the bids and determined
that Bell Products, Inc. is the lowest responsive bidder with a bid amount of $3,693,180.
A summary of bids received is shown in Attachment 2.

Board Meeting Date: July 20, 2006
subject: AWARD A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT AND AUTHORIZE THE
GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS WITH BELL
PRODUCTS INCORPORATED, APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO THE
AGREEMENT WITH AEPC GROUP, FOR THE HEADQUARTERS OFFICE
BUILDING HVAC IMPROVEMENTS AND ROOF REPLACEMENT PROJECT,
DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 8205 AND THE PLANT OPERATIONS BUILDING HVAC
IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 7228
District staff will perform construction management, contract administration, and
construction inspection. Staff recommends retaining AEPC Group to provide support
services during construction for this project because AEPC Group prepared the plans
and specifications and, therefore, has a solid understanding of the project design. The
construction support services include reviewing shop drawings and submittals,
responding to design questions, evaluating change order requests, and performing site
visits to verify compliance with the design intent. A construction support services
contract with a cost ceiling of $70,000 has been negotiated with AEPC Group. This will
bring the total professional services contract with AEPC Group to $347,000.
The additional allocation of funds to complete these projects, as shown in
Attachment 3, is $4,501,000. These projects are included in the fiscal year 2006 -2007
Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) on pages GI 28 -29 and TP 48 -49. Staff has
determined that there are adequate funds in the Capital Improvement Budget and Plan
for these projects.
Staff has also concluded that these projects are exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 18.2, since
they involve minor alterations to existing sewage facilities with no increase in capacity.
The Board of Directors' approval of this project will constitute an independent finding
that these projects are exempt from CEQA.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Award a construction contract in the amount of
$3,693,180 for the construction of the Headquarters Office Building HVAC
Improvements and Roof Replacement Project, District Project No. 8205 and the Plant
Operations HVAC Improvements Project, District Project No. 7228, to Bell Products,
Inc., the lowest responsive bidder, and authorize the General Manager to execute the
Contract Documents. Authorize the General Manager to execute a professional
services agreement not to exceed $70,000 with AEPC Group.

General
ISSUE: Board of Directors' authorization is required for the General Manager to
execute a professional services agreement in an amount greater than $50,000.
t
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager to execute a professional
services agreement with Protective Relay Engineering, Inc. (PRE) with a cost ceiling of
$75,000 for the protective relay analysis and arc flash study.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The cost for PRE and staff to perform the protective relay
analysis and the arc flash study will be approximately $90,000.
ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: One alternative would be not to perform the
study, which staff does not recommend. The other alternative is to hire additional
engineering staff with specific expertise. It has been the District's practice to augment
staff with consultants on specialty designs and larger projects.
BACKGROUND: The treatment plant has nine substations, and the lifeline of the
treatment plant's electrical system is the feeders from the main substations to the local
area substations and electrical switchgears /breakers. Loss or failure of these power
conveyances or transferring switches is not acceptable. The electrical system
throughout the treatment plant was installed in the mid -1970s and has had substantial
upgrades and modifications through several major projects.
The protective relay analysis and arc flash study are the first stages of the Plant
Electrical Renovations Project, District Project 7245. Additional work currently under
evaluation includes additional cable replacement in the tunnels, power monitoring of
the distribution system and circuit breakers.

subject AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT
WITH PROTECTIVE RELAY ENGINEERING, INC. FOR PROFESSIONAL
ENGINEERING SERVICES TO PERFORM A PROTECTIVE RELAY ANALYSIS
AND ARC FLASH STUDY FOR THE PLANT ELECTRICAL RENOVATIONS
PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 7245
The protective relay analysis and arc flash study will determine relay settings that will
protect the electrical system when there is a fault, while not shutting down any more of
the treatment plant than necessary. The entire treatment plant electrical system will be
part of this study, with the exception of co- generation, standby generators, and utility
interconnection relays, which were previously completed by PRE in 2005.
Staff recommends Protective Relay Engineering, Inc. to perform the protective relay
analysis and arc flash study since they satisfactorily performed the protective relay
analysis for the cogeneration system in 2005 and have unique knowledge and
capabilities for this follow on work. A professional engineering services agreement with
a cost ceiling of $75,000 has been negotiated with PRE.
The Plant Electrical Renovations Project is included in the 2006 -2007 Capital
Improvement Budget on pages TP-41 and TP -42. Staff has determined that there are
adequate funds in the Capital Improvement Budget and Plan for this Project. The
Project Manager has reviewed the expenditure requirements for this allocation and
determined that they are consistent with the Capital Improvement Budget and Plan.
Staff has concluded that this project is exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 since it involves
minor alterations to an existing public facility. Approval of this project will establish the
Board of Directors' independent finding that this project is exempt from CEQA.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager to execute a
professional services agreement with Protective Relay Engineering, Inc. with a cost
ceiling of $75,000 for performing a protective relay analysis and arc flash study for the
Plant Electrical Renovations Project, District Project 7245.

PURCHASE AGREEMENT WITH GONSALVES & SANTUCCI, INC., RELATED TO
THE CONCO CEMENT COMPANY'S DEVELOPMENT ADJACENT TO THE

General
ISSUE: The Board must approve real property transactions.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager and Secretary of the District to
execute the Real Property Agreement with Gonsalves & Santucci, Inc. (G &S).
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The value of property rights being sold to G &S is $233,255.
The District will receive property rights and /or cash from G &S equivalent to $233,255.
ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: The Board can decline to authorize the
Agreement as drafted and request changes be made to the document to the satisfaction
of the Board. Changes to the Agreement may affect compensation amounts and /or
liability responsibility.
The Board can decline to approve the sale or purchase of the subject land rights
altogether. Staff has been negotiating the conditions of approval of the County permit
for the proposed development and the conditions of sale since August 2003. G &S
needs the access rights and utility easements from the District in order to develop their
land. Barring G &S from these land rights would require costly, if not unworkable,
alternatives for G &S.
BACKGROUND: G &S is proposing to develop their land north of the District treatment
plant: The site will include a form fabrication facility for CONCO Cement Company and
a maintenance facility and yard for Reliable Trucking Company. Both companies are
subsidiaries of G &S. As part of the County's development review process, staff was
able to comment on the development. The comments submitted to the County to
protect District facilities on the development site were incorporated into the County's
conditions of approval. Prior reports to the Board have detailed the issues related to the
development conditions.

POSITION PAPER
Board Meeting Date: July 20, 2006
subject. AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE A REAL PROPERTY
PURCHASE AGREEMENT WITH GONSALVES & SANTUCCI, INC., RELATED TO
THE CONCO CEMENT COMPANY'S DEVELOPMENT ADJACENT TO THE
TREATMENT PLANT
G &S is now seeking to purchase from the District the land rights needed to improve the
access road to their land and to install utilities to serve their approved development. In
lieu of a portion of the cash, staff is considering the purchase of additional land rights
through the development site to upgrade rights of way for the Outfall, M -2 forcemains,
two recycled water lines, drainage, and overflow rights. While these rights are currently
adequate for our needs, upgrading the rights of way at this time would provide
additional protection for District facilities. A listing of the land rights to be sold or
possibly acquired along with the values is shown in the attached table and is followed by
a map showing the easements needed by G &S and possible land right acquisitions.
G &S will deposit $233,255 with the District's escrow agent. If the District and G &S
agree on the value of the land rights of way to be acquired by the District, the District
will receive these land rights and cash equal to the difference of $233,255 and the value
of the land rights to be acquired. There is the possibility that these amounts may
change to some extent depending on final land areas and negotiations.
Grant Deeds for land rights associated with this transaction will be presented to the
Board for acceptance at future meetings. Due to the complexity of this purchase, the
transaction will be controlled by an escrow account set up by staff at a local title
company. The Agreement is being submitted to the Board for acceptance at this time to
allow G &S to commence construction activity once the funds are placed in escrow and
building permits have been acquired.
The proposed purchase agreement has been submitted to the Board under separate
cover.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager and Secretary of
the District to execute the Real Property Purchase Agreement with Gonsalves &
Santucci, Inc.
