Staff is also seeking federal legislative authorization and appropriation for up to an additional $1.8 million in Title XVI funding for the project. Title XVI grant funds can be used to pay for expenses already incurred and would apply retroactively to this project. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Reject all bids, which is not recommended. BACKGROUND: In 2006, the District conducted an extensive design consultant selection process for the A -Line Relief Interceptor and extension of the reclaimed water main to the Diamond Boulevard commercial area. Consultants were invited to submit Statements of Qualification (SOQ) for the project, and four SOQs were received. The three most qualified consultants, Montgomery Watson Harza, Brown and Caldwell, and Carollo Engineers, Inc., were sent Requests for Proposals (RFPs). After review of the proposals and consultant interviews Carollo Engineers, Inc. was selected to design the project. During design the recycled water portion was removed from the contract when unanticipated requirements for backflow prevention devices from Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) increased the project cost beyond what was budgeted. The recycled water project consists of installation of approximately 12,100 linear feet of new recycled water pipe. Attachment 1 shows the location of the project work. At its March 19, 2009 meeting, the Board independently found that this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). A Notice of Exemption was filed with the Contra Costa County Clerk. At its December 8, 2011 meeting, the Board authorized the General Manager to execute an agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc. to complete the design of the recycled water pipe originally begun in 2006. On December 20, 2011, the United States Bureau of Reclamation determined that the project is in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and approved a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). With NEPA requirements now complete, the District will be able to receive federal grant funding for the construction phase of this project if it becomes available in the future. To satisfy requirements of California Safe Drinking Water, Water Quality and Supply, Flood Control, and River and Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2006 (Proposition 84), at its April 19, 2012 meeting, the Board adopted a resolution to adopt the Labor Compliance Program (LCP), approved Contractor Compliance and Monitoring, Inc.

AWARD A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT AND AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS SUBJECT TO SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS WITH PLATINUM PIPELINE, INC. FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE CONCORD LANDSCAPE PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 7299; AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE A RIGHT - OF -ENTRY AGREEMENT WITH BUCHANAN FIELDS GOLF COURSE, INC.; AND AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO AMEND AN EXISTING PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CAROLLO ENGINEERS, INC. FOR DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES (CCMI) as the third party LCP administrator, and authorized staff and CCMI to submit all necessary labor compliance program forms, applications, and information to the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) for this project. At its July 19, 2012 meeting, the Board adopted a resolution accepting the terms of the Proposition 84 grant for this project and authorized the General Manager to execute the grant Implementation Agreement with the Bay Area Clean Water Agencies. Subsequent to this Board action the agreement was executed. Carollo Engineers, Inc. and District staff prepared the plans and specifications for the project. The Engineer's estimate for construction of the Concord Landscape Project, DP 7299, is $3,700,000. This project was advertised on January 14 and 22, 2013. Ten (10) sealed bids ranging from $2,150,351 to $3,434,696 were received and publicly opened on February 20, 2013. The Engineering Department conducted a technical and commercial review of the bids and determined that Platinum Pipeline, Inc. is the lowest responsive bidder with a bid amount of $2,150,351. A summary of bids received is shown in Attachment 2. The District will oversee administration of the construction contract. Staff recommends retaining Carollo Engineers, Inc. to provide construction support for this project. Carollo Engineers, Inc. prepared the plans and specifications, and has a unique understanding of this project. Also, because of the unique nature of this project related to recycled water pressure distribution pipeline installation, staff is recommending retaining a construction management firm to assist with inspection and office engineering. Staff solicited an RFP from five (5) construction management firms. Carollo Engineers, Inc. was selected based on a combination of experience and price. The construction support services will include reviewing shop drawings and submittals, responding to design questions, evaluating change order requests, performing site visits to verify compliance with the design intent, inspection, coordination of survey and field testing, and other related activities. A construction support services contract with a cost ceiling of $325,000 has been negotiated with Carollo Engineers, Inc. This will bring the total professional service contract with Carollo Engineers, Inc. to $545,000.

AWARD A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT AND AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS SUBJECT TO SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS WITH PLATINUM PIPELINE, INC. FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE CONCORD LANDSCAPE PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 7299; AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE A RIGHT - OF -ENTRY AGREEMENT WITH BUCHANAN FIELDS GOLF COURSE, INC.; AND AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO AMEND AN EXISTING PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CAROLLO ENGINEERS, INC. FOR DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES Based on the actual costs during the A -Line Relief Interceptor project in the Buchanan Field Golf Course (BFGC) for restoration work and lost profit, staff has estimated that costs for these two items will be $119,000 and $43,000, respectively, for a total of $162,000. Actual cost for the restoration work will be determined after the contractor has moved off site. Actual cost for lost profits will be based on lost profit analyses performed by two firms, one hired by the District, one hired by BFGC. Although the recycled water main, services, and meter boxes will be installed with this project, no recycled water meters will be placed. The conversion work from potable water (CCWD) to recycled water (CCCSD) for irrigation purposes will occur with a subsequent construction contract. The projected costs for the irrigation conversion design, construction work, regulatory coordination, and installation of double -check valve assemblies on fire services as required by CCWD is $500,000. Staff will return to the Board to request authorizing this conversion construction work. The funds required to complete this project, as shown in Attachment 3, are $3,253,000. The total cost of the Concord Landscape Project, DP 7299, is anticipated to be $3,915,000. The costs of completion of individual connections, estimated at $500,000, are not included. This project is included in the fiscal year (FY) 2012 -13 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) on pages RW -3. Staff has conducted a cash -flow analysis of the Recycled Water Program budget and concluded that adequate funds are available for this project.
