Consultant Selection for Recycled Water Wholesaling Study• Central Contra Costa Sanitary District May 20, 2015 TO: REAL ESTATE, ENVIRONMENTAL & PLANNING COMMITTEE VIA: ROGER S. BAILEY, GENERAL MANAGER JEAN -MARC PETIT, DIRECTOR OF ENGINE IN & TECHNICAL SVCS `° DANEA GEMMELL, PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT SVCS DIVISION MGR�C5 NATHAN HODGES, PROVISIONAL SENIOR ENGINEER ti ( � r FROM: MELODY LABELLA, PROVISIONAL ASSOCIATE ENGINEER %9- SUBJECT: CONSULTANT SELECTION FOR RECYCLED WATER WHOLESALING STUDY The District's Real Estate, Environmental & Planning (BEEP) Committee has expressed interest in taking better advantage of the potential water supply that the District's treated wastewater effluent represents. Since the inception of the District's Recycled Water Program in the late 1990s, only a very small portion (2.5 MGD peak) of the District's available supply of treated effluent has been recycled. As a result, along with input from the REEP Committee, on April 14, 2015, staff issued a request for proposals to six firms for a Recycled Water Wholesaling Study, indicating an available budget of $75,000 for the work. Three proposals were received by staff's deadline of May 1, 2015. Proposing consultants included: RMC Water and Environment (RMC), SRT Consultants and Kennedy Jenks and Associates. The three proposals were shared with an evaluation panel of raters comprised of both internal and external representatives as follows: Internal Representatives External Representatives Ann Sasaki Bert Mihalczyk, DSRSD General Manager Danea Gemmell Linda Hu, EBMUD Recycled Water Program Manager Melody LaBella After scoring the proposals, the evaluation panel conducted thirty- minute interviews with each of the proposing consultants on May 12, 2015. The evaluation panel unanimously selected RMC as the best consultant to conduct this study for the District. As the proposed contract is within staff authority to award, staff is recommending awarding a contract with RMC to the BEEP Committee.
