ISSUE: On October 19, 2016, four (4) sealed bids were received and opened for the
construction of the Headworks Screening Upgrade, District Project 7327. The Board of
Directors (Board) must award the contract, or reject bids within 50 days of the bid
opening. Authorize the General Manager to execute the Contract Documents subject to
SUBMITTAL requirements, and revise an existing professional engineering agreement
in an amount greater than $100,000.
BACKGROUND: The Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) Priority Ranking for this
project is critical and the work aligns with the District's Strategic Plan, specifically Goal
No. 6, which is "Maintain a Reliable Wastewater Infrastructure."
The project will install four new multi -rake bar screens with fine openings to replace the
existing climber screens and grinders, a screenings conveyance sluiceway, washer
compactors, and a screenings disposal facility. Two of the existing climber screens and
grinders will be rebuilt and installed in the Headworks wet weather channels for more
operational reliability and process redundancy. The project work area is shown in
Attachment 1.
This project will significantly improve the following challenges:
• Grinding of the screenings results in several negative impacts, such as increased
plastics and floatables in the liquid and solid streams, and equipment fouling
throughout the treatment plant.
• The existing screens are not enclosed. The new screening removal equipment
and new enclosed facilities were designed to reduce odor issues.

AMENDMENT WITH BROWN AND CALDWELL FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THE HEADWORKS SCREENING UPGRADE,
DISTRICT PROJECT 7327
• Maintaining and sourcing replacement parts for the existing screens and grinders
is becoming more difficult and expensive.
Brown and Caldwell (B&C) is the design engineer and prepared the plans and
specifications for the project. The Engineer's estimate for construction is $6,500,000.
This project was advertised on September 15 and 22, 2016. Four sealed bids ranging
from $5,191,000 to $5,585,000 were received and publicly opened on October 19,
2016.
The Engineering Department conducted a technical and commercial review of the bids
and determined that W.M. Lyles Co. is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder
with a bid amount of $5,191,000. A summary of bids received is shown in Attachment 2.
District staff will administer the construction contract, provide construction management,
oversee consultant services, provide control system integration, and coordinate
activities with Plant Operations.
District staff recommends retaining B&C to provide support services during the
construction phase of this project, which includes reviewing shop drawings and
submittals, responding to design questions, evaluating change order requests,
performing site visits to verify design compliance, controls integration support, structural
inspections, and other related activities. An as -needed construction support services
agreement amendment with a cost ceiling of $360,000 has been negotiated with B&C
for this project. To date, the total cost ceiling for the B&C agreement is at $1,090,000,
which includes design and construction support services of the Substation 16
Switchgear (Sub 16) Replacement project and design services for the Headworks
Screening Upgrade project. The proposed agreement revision will increase the total
agreement cost ceiling to $1,450,000.
CEQA: Staff has concluded that this project is exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 15302,
since it involves replacement of existing public facilities at the same location and with
the same purpose. Approval of this project will establish the Board of Directors'
independent finding that this project is exempt from CEQA.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The total project cost of the Headworks Screening Upgrade is
anticipated to be $8,220,000, which includes planning, design, consultant fees, bid
price, construction, contingency, and construction management as shown in
