DATE:
MAY 22, 2006
SUBJECT: AWARD CONTRACT FOR ADJUSTING RELAYS AND TESTING THE 12 -kV
CIRCUIT BREAKERS AT THE AZUSA SUBSTATION.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Utility Board / City Council award the contract to Electrical
Systems Engineering Company, in the amount not -to -exceed $26,238 for adjusting relays and
testing circuit breakers at the Azusa Substation.
BACKGROUND
On April 25, 2006, Azusa Light & Water staff met with Southern California Edison's
engineering and contract personnel to discuss sectionalizing the 12kV bus at Azusa
Substation. Sectionalizing the 12 kV bus involves opening the manual disconnect switches in
between the buses to split them into sections. The purpose is to operate separately the
paralleled substation power transformers connected to the 12kV bus thereby limiting
equipment exposure from electrical disturbances. Sectionalizing will help reduce the
magnitude of electrical faults and will mitigate damages that may occur to substation
equipment.
Prior to sectionalizing the 12kV bus, protective relays need to be adjusted and programmed
for the reduced fault duty level. Relays are devices which control the opening or closing of the
circuit breakers. After adjusting relays, the circuit breakers will need to be re -tested to ensure
their proper operation. In preparation of this work, staff solicited proposals from companies
who provide relay adjustment and circuit breaker testing services. Listed below are the
proposals received inclusive of a 10% contingency allowance in their proposal lump sum not -
to -exceed amount:
Company Amount
1) Electrical Systems Engineering Co. $26,238
2) Siemens Industrial Services $35,495
3) Pacific Technical Resources $70,290
025
Staff reviewed the above listed proposals and determined that the proposal submitted by
Electrical Systems Engineering Company meets the requirement and best interest of Azusa
Light & Water.
Once the relay adjustment and circuit breaker testing work is complete, the other work
associated with sectionalizing the I ZkV bus can be completed, which is tentatively scheduled
for implementation before the onset of summer weather conditions.

SUBJECT: REQUEST TO PURCHASE TWO (2) ELASTIMOLD VACUUM SWITCHES
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Azusa Utility Board/City Council approve the purchase of two
Elastimold vacuum switches from One Source Distributors in amount of $10,615 to replace
aging equipment for the apartment complex located at 955 East Arrow Highway.
BACKGROUND:
The apartment complex at 955 E. Arrow Hwy. was acquired from Southern California Edison
in 1993. It is an older tract with older type of equipment. There are two underground primary
switches that control the feed to the transformers inside the complex. The switches are now
obsolete and parts for them are no longer available. The enclosures are also small and only
Elastimold vacuum switch can fit in them. Elastimold vacuum switch is the standard switch
installed in the city. In order to maintain reliable service to the complex, the old switches need
to be replaced with new vacuum type switches.
There are only two vendors authorized to sell Elastimold products to City of Azusa. The
second supplier is Southwest Power which quoted $10,863.19.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funds for the purchase are available in the FY O5/06 operating budget, account #

SUBJECT: ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION TO BLACK & VEATCH FOR EXTRA COST RELATED
TO ADDITIONAL DESIGN TASKS FOR THE CANYON MEMBRANE WATER
TREATMENT PLANT UPGRADE PLANS
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Utility Board/City Council approve the additional payment of
$140,900 to Black & Veatch for extra costs to their contract to design project WVF-207,
Canyon Filtration Plant Membrane Treatment Upgrade and Expansion
BACKGROUND
At its regular meeting held on February 28, 2005, the City Council approved the award of the
contract for the consultant design services for membrane treatment upgrade and expansion
of the Canyon Filtration Plant to Black &Veatch Corp. for an estimated cost of $1,300,000.
The design of the plant improvement is now complete, and the plans and specifications are
ready for bid. During the course of the design work, various additions and changes to Black &
Veatch's Scope of Services were necessary for the completion of the design work. Included as
an attachment to this Agenda Item are two letters from Black & Veatch elucidating those
changes and the costs associated with each change.
The reasons for requesting those changes of Black & Veatch by Staff are, by item:
Design Task f. Design of new finished water pipeline from the 4.0 MG finished water
reservoir onsite to connect to the lower pressure zone at the intersectlon of Sierra madre
Avenue and San Gabriel Canyon Road.
At the time the RFP for this design project was written, it was anticipated that the existing 30 -
inch finished waterline from the existing Canyon Filtration Plant would be sufficient to convey
the finished water flow from the new 4.0 MG finished water reservoir to the water distribution
system. Subsequent system hydraulic modeling demonstrated that an additional waterline
029
would be necessary to carry the finished water Flow south from the 4.0 MG finished water
reservoir to the water distribution system.
Design Task Z. Design ofSanitarypump Station and alignment and profile for the sanitary
sewer line from the plant to the nearest sewer on the San Gabriel Canyon Road.
At the time the RFP for this design project was written, it was not made evident in the RFP
that the existing Filtration Plant was served by a septic tank rather than a connection to the
City sewer system. Design of a formal connection to the City sewer system via a domestic lift
station was required.
Design Task 3. Design of a Maintenance Area inside the new Operations and Maintenance
Building.
At the time the RFP for this design project was written, the Production Division used the
existing Filter Building and the shop at the Sierra Madre Reservoir site to perform
maintenance work on Production Division equipment such as pumps, regulators, and meters.
Following the Feasibility Study done by Black & Veatch, it was decided that a new Treatment
Plant (WTP) would be designed and constructed and the existing Filtration Plant would be
demolished after it was taken out of service. Also, during the design work for the Rosedale
Development, it was decided that the shop at the Sierra Madre Reservoir site would be
converted back to a pump station, which it had been in the past. The unavailability of the
shop building and the existing Filtration Plant buildings for use as maintenance facilities gave
rise to the need for a new maintenance facility which was designed as a part of the new WTP
Operations and Maintenance Building.
Design Task 4. Reconfiguration of the Intake Structure Design.
The intake structure for the new WTP was to be designed as an integral part of the Committee
of Nine Canal to the north of the new WTP. The C9 Canal is used by two members of the C9
for water supply to their respective water treatment plants; Azusa Light and Water (ALW) and
Covina Irrigating Company (CICO). In order to coordinate the use of the C9 Canal by the two
parties, discussions were held about combining the intakes of both parties at one site on the
C9 Canal north of the WTP. Because the WTP project was on a fast track, due to progress
from beginning to completion in six months, it was necessary to begin design of the diversion
structure, the first link in the hydraulic profile of the WTP treatment process, under the
assumption that both parties would take water from the diversion structure. When CICo
learned of the cost to them to enlarge the C9 Canal to accommodate their Flow to the
diversion structure, they decided to seek an alternative method to take water form the C9
Canal. At that point, a decision had to be made to either build the diversion with the extra
intake designed for CICo or redesign the diversion structure with only one intake for ALW. It
was decided that redesign of the diversion structure would be the most cost effective
alternative of the two since the cost of construction would be significantly less for the single
diversion.
Design Task 5. Acoustic design for Membrane feed pump Station and Finished Water pump
Station.
At the time the RFP for this design project was written, it was unknown what the CEQA
process would require for noise reduction at the at the outside facilities of the WTP such as
pump stations. A Mitigated Negative Declaration was ultimately determined to be the proper
CEQA study level, and in the Mitigated Negative Declaration a noise limitation of 50dBA was
030
T
required at the outside limits of the WTP project. This limitation required that noise
attenuation be designed to achieve that limitation around the Finished Water Pump Station
and the Membrane Feed Pump Station.
Design Task 6. foundation Drain Pump Station Design.
At the time the RFP for this design project was written, it was unknown that the groundwater
beneath the WTP project area would be capable of rising to levels high enough to affect the
bearing capacity of the foundations of the WTP structures. When the geotechnical
investigations were performed for the site, it became apparent that high groundwater was a
probability and a groundwater removal system was necessary. It was suggested that the
elevations of the site structures be raised, but a limitation on the heights of the WTP
structures to that of the top elevation of the existing buildings made an increased WTP
structure height untenable. Therefore, to mitigate the effects of high groundwater on the
foundations of the WTP structures, a groundwater pumping station was designed.
Design Task 7. Electrical Switchgear Modifications.
In order to facilitate load shedding at those times when it is necessary to decrease overall City
power demand, it was decided to redesign the electrical switchgear planned for the WTP. to
allow shedding of half the load of the WTP by running half of the WTP on local electric power
and running the other half of the WTP on diesel generator power.
Design Task 8. Miscellaneous Design Tasks
A sump pump was added to the allow full emptying of the Pretreatment Basin, and a Reverse
Osmosis water filtrations system was added to the plumbing of the Operations and
Maintenance Building Laboratory to provide filtered water for test purposes.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of this additional cost is $140,900 which represents an addition of 10.8% to
the final cost of Black & Veatch's contract. This additional cost will be paid from

B&V Project 140777.300
B&V File A.2
April 17, 2006
Subject: Amendment Request for Additional Design Tasks
Pursuant to our conversation on April 13, 2006, via this letter, we are presenting an
amendment request in the amount of $140,900 to our design contract for the Canyon
Filtration Plant Membrane Treatment Upgrade and Expansion Project. The final design
of this project is complete and the project is ready to advertise for bid.
In our April 13 meeting, we discussed the following tasks that were performed as part of
the design but were not included in our original proposal. As the project evolved during-
the
uringthe design phase, some of these items were added to the project at the request of ALW
and other design tasks developed due to unforeseen conditions that needed to be
addressed to make the design complete. We are presenting a description of these out of
scope design tasks and the associated design fee in this letter for your review and
approval.
Design Task 1. Design of a new finished water pipeline from the 4.0 MG finished
water reservoir onsite to connect to the lower pressure zone at the intersection of Sierra
Madre Avenue and San Gabriel Canyon Road
Based on our understanding of the plant setup at the time of the proposal, we included the
design of onsite piping modifications needed to connect the new reservoir to the
discharge of Heck Reservoir which feeds the distribution system. We did not anticipate
designing approximately 4500 LF pipeline from the plant to the Sierra Madre Road. The
design effort for this task included the following:

Mr. Chet Anderson Page 2
April 17, 2006
• Surveying the San Gabriel Canyon Road south of the Fraternal Order of Eagles
Facility (where we are connecting to the SGVMWD pipeline) to the Sierra Madre
Avenue.
• Coordination with the utilities to identify existing utilities along the pipe
alignment.
• Design of approximately 4500 LF of pipeline including pipeline alignment and
profile drawings connection details, and hydraulic analysis.
• Perform CEQA and geotech investigation for the San Gabriel Canyon Road south
of the Fraternal Order of Eagles Facility to the Sierra Madre Avenue.
Design Task 2. Design of Sanitary Sewer Pump Station and alignment and profile for
the sanitary sewer line from the plant to the nearest sewer on the San Gabriel Canyon
Road.
Our effort was based on tying into a sanitary sewer system available onsite. During the
initial project meetings, we discovered that the plant currently has a septic system and
there is no sanitary sewer available. The work performed under this task included the
following:
• Coordination with the utilities to identify existing utilities along the pipe
alignment.
• Design of a sanitary sewer pump station located at the plant site and alignment
and profile of the 6 inch sanitary force main from the plant to the existing sewer
line along the San Gabriel Canyon Road.
• Permit investigation with the local sewer authority.
Design Task 3. Design of a Maintenance Area inside the new Operations and
Maintenance Building.
During the final stages of Basis of Design Report, ALW requested that a maintenance
area be provided in the new operations building to allow ALW to perform maintenance
associated with the plant equipment. A maintenance area was added to the new
Operations and Maintenance Building. The maintenance area included area for storage
and work area for the ALW staff, a lavatory, service sink, and other miscellaneous
features. Detailed design of this portion of the building included architectural, structural,
electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and fire protection design including drawings and
specifications to meet the code requirements and ALW's needs.
Design Task 4. Reconfiguration of the Intake Structure Design.
During the initial stages of design, the raw water intake structure was designed to include
ALW and Covina Irrigating Company's (CIC) water needs. As the project progressed,
the structure had to be reconfigured to make the meet only ALW's needs as CIC decided
to proceed with other plans of getting canal water to their treatment facilities. The
reconfiguration effort included the following:
033
Azusa Light and Water B&V PN 140777.300
Mr. Chet Anderson Page 3
April 17, 2006
• Revise the intake structure to delete a mechanical traveling screen and associated
channel structure.
• Adjust location of the Intake Structure on the site plan and delete preliminary
piping layout for CIC's piping.
• Revise equipment specifications to delete CIC's traveling screen.
• Modify electrical and controls associated with Intake Structure.
Design Task 5. Acoustic Design for Membrane Feed Pump Station and Finished
Water Pump Station.
The design of Membrane Feed Pump Station and Finished Water Pump Station included
an outdoor concrete pad with vertical can type pumps. The initial study performed as
part of the CEQA process required that a noise limitation of 50 dBA be maintained at the
property limits at all times. To satisfy this requirement, the following additional tasks
were performed:
• Determine the performance and design requirements associated with the
acoustical walls.
• Prepare a performance specification describing the sound survey requirements,
noise mitigation measures, structural requirements for the acoustical walls, and
post mitigation requirements.
• Identify limits of acoustical wall around the Membrane Feed Pump Station and
Finished Water Pump Station.
Design Task 6. Foundation Drain Pump Station Design.
The geotechnical investigations performed at the site as part of the project revealed that
high groundwater exists at the plant site. To minimize the effects of uplift on
underground structures due to high groundwater, a foundation drain system was designed
for underground structures including pretreatment facility, finished water reservoir, pump
stations, and drying ponds. The work involved the following:
• Design of foundation drain collection piping for the underground structures.
• Design of a foundation drain pump station including underground wetwell,
submersible pumps, piping, electrical and controls.
• Drawings and specifications changes to incorporate the foundation drain system
design.
Design Task 7. Electrical Switchgear Modifications.
The electrical switchgear design was modified to allow ALW. to operate half the plant
using the generator and other half using electric power. The work included the
following:
• Design of power distribution system to allow switching half the plant to generator
power at ALW's option.
034
Azusa Light and Water B&V PN 140777.300

April 17, 2006
• Specification of additional electrical components including transfer switch, etc.
• Modification of generator design to incorporate the power distribution changes.
Design Task 8. Miscellaneous Design Tasks.
The following miscellaneous design tasks were performed:
• Sump Pump in the Pretreatment Basin Drain Pump Station. A sump pump was
designed in the drain pump station wetwell to collect incidental leakage from the
basin drain sluice gates. Work included pump design, piping, electrical, and
controls.
• Design of a RO Unit. A RO unit was designed to be located in the laboratory of
the new Operations and Maintenance Building. Work included design of the RO
unit and modifications to the drawings and specifications to incorporate the RO
unit.

During the initial stages of design, the raw water intake structure was designed to include
ALW and Covina Irrigating Company's (CIC) water supply needs. As the project
progressed, the structure had to be reconfigured to meet only ALW's needs as CIC
decided to proceed with other plans for getting canal water to their treatment facilities.
The reconfiguration effort included the following:
Civil/Process Design
• Revise the intake structure to delete a mechanical traveling screen and associated
channel structure.
• Revise location of the Intake Structure on the site plan and delete preliminary
piping and valve layout for CIC's piping.

Design Task 5. Acoustic Design for Membrane Feed Pump Station and Finished
Water Pump Station.
The design of Membrane Feed Pump Station and Finished Water Pump Station included
an outdoor concrete pad with vertical can -type pumps. The initial study performed as
part of the CEQA process required that a noise limitation of 50 dBA be maintained at the
property limits at all times. To satisfy this requirement, the following additional tasks
were performed:

San Juan Environmental
Update:
■ Southern California Public Power Authority (SCPPA) at the urging of staff is
taking concrete steps to actively manage the project. The concrete steps to be
taken shortly are:
1. Conduct an independent engineering assessment of the Project to ensure the
scope of work as pproposed by the pro'ect management (PNM) and the lead
engineering firm (0) is complete. A Beck will conduct the assessment for
SCPPA
2. Approve the environmental project capital project for San Juan unit 3 with
conditions suggested by staff:
2.1 PNM to facilitate SCPPA's independent engineering review
work
2.2 PNM to provide cost options (fixed pricing, performance pricing, etc..)
prior to signing definitive agreements with vendors, and with detailed cost
exposure analysis for SCPPA's concurrence
■ Staff is optimistic that with the above process in place, we will have timely
assessment of the progress and the risks of the project and take the necessary
actions to make adjustment to the project

Climate Change Issues
• The Governor issued an executive order in June 2005 setting the goals to reduce
greenhouse gas emission to 1990 level by 2010, 20% reduction from 1990 level by
2020, and 80% reduction from 1990 level by 2050
• The Governor entrusted the Climate Change Advisory Committee (ad hoc committee
consisting of industry stakeholders) to implement his directives. The Committee
issued its findings and recommendations in March, including specific
recommendations to fold municipal utilities into the state mandated programs
• The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is also commending a rulemaking to
explicit require the quantification of financial exposures to GHG in future Investor
Owned Utilities (IOUs) power procurement process
• The municipal community is proactively working toward a set of principles that will
meet and exceed the GHG reduction goals while retaining the autonomy to implement
specific programs on the local level
