Increase the Budget for elP P2502 and Authorize the Purchase
of Variable Frequency Drives and Active Line Conditioners
for the 803-1 and 850-2 Pump Stations
GENERAL MANAGER'S UCOMMENDATION:
That the Otay Water Distdct (District)Board of Directors (Board),
1)Increases the budget for elP P2502 from $200,000 to $525,000,and
2)Authorizes the General Manager to issue a purchase order to Sloan
Electromechanical Service Ii Sales (Sloan)in the amount of $246,885
for the purchase of Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs)and issue a
separate purchase order to OneSource Distributors (OneSource)in the
amount of $134,252 for the purchase of Active Line Conditioners
(ALes)for the 803-1 and 850-2 Pump Stations (see Exhibit A for
Project location).
COMKITTEE ACTION:
Please see Attachment A.
PURPOSE:
To obtain Board approval to increase the budget for ClP P2502 by
$325,000 and to obtain Board authorization for the General Manager to
purchase VFDs from Sloan in the amount of $246,885 and ALes from
OneSource in the amount ot $134,252 for the 803·1 and 850-2 Pump
Stations.
ANALYSIS,
The 803-1 and 850-2 Pump Stations are located adjacent to each other
at the Regulatory Site.Both pump stations currently lift vater from
the 520 Reservoirs to their respective pressure 20nea.With the new
640-1 and 640-2 Reservoira in place since 2008,and the completion of
the 36-inch Jamacha Road pipeline in the fall of 2010,the District
now has the opportunity for significant energy coat aavinga by
modifying these stations to etulble pumping from the 640-1 and 640-2
Reservoirs rather than the 520-2 and 520-3 Reservoirs.
To accompliah this change in pumping operation,it ia necessary to
replace the motor startera in the ~isting motor contrQl centers
(MCCs)vith VPDs.This will allov the existing pumps to operate at a
lower speed to match the reduced pumping head.It viII also provide
the operational flexibility to return to the higher pumping head
configuration,if necessary.
The 120-foot decrease in pumping head will result in an estimated
savings in energy usage of approximately S85,OOO per year.At this
rate,the estimated project costs viII be recovered within 12 years,
well vithin the useful life of the two pump stations.In addition,
because the Project reduces energy consumption,it qualifies under
the SDG&E Energy Efficiency Business Incentive Program.Application
has been made and the Project haa been pre-approved by SDG&E for an
incentive payment of approximately $75,000,reducing the paybck time
by about one (1)year.
Quotations were solicited on February 17,2011 from manufacturers to
furnish a total of nine (9)VFDs (five (5)for the 803-1 Pump Station
and four (41 for the 850-2 Pump Station)based on a design package
prepared by Engineering Partner.,Inc.(EPII,the District's as-
needed electrical engineer.Quotations were solicited at the same
time to purchase ALes.Diatrict staff viII install the VFDs and
ALes.AmOng other provisions,the specifications require that the
VPDs fit entirely within the existing MOC enclosures.
In accordance with District Purchasing Procedures,two quotations
were received on March 8,2011 from manufacturers able to comply with
the space constraint,
1.OneSource Distributors,representing Rockwell/Allen-Bradley
VPD•.
2.Sloan Electromechanical Service &Sales,representing Mitsubishi
VPDs.
,
The VFD quotations received are as follows:
Pump Station OneSource Sloan
803-1 PS (p2502)5128,470 $141,919
850-2 PS (p2503)$66,664 $104,966
'1'otal $217,134 $246,885
Although OneSource's quoted price is lower,further review of their
equipment shows that the Rockwell/Allen-Bradley units are not
compliant with an important VFD performance specification which was
also confirmed with Rockwell.The smallest Rockwell/Allen-Bradley
unit that meets the specification is too large to fit in the existing
MCC enclosures.The Mitsubishi VFDs offered by Sloan comply with
both the performance specification and the space constraint.
Quotations for ALCs were also received on March 6,2011 from
OneSource and Sloan.ALCs are used in association with VFDs to
filter harmonic distortion in the power supply.Both suppliers
quoted identical ALC equipment manufactured by Trans-Coil
International,LLC (TCI).The quotations for this equipment are
shown below:
Pump Station OneSource OneSource Sloan
3/6/11 4/7/11 3/8/2011
803-1 PS (P2502)$103,557 $67,126 $126,745
850-2 PS (p2503)$62,737 $67,126 576,865
Total $166,294 $1340,252 $203,610
Even though both suppliers quoted the same TCI equipment,the price
was significantly less in the OneSource quotation.In the course of
investigating the reason for the difference in price,we learned that
TCI has a long-standing relationship with OneSource,which explains
their preferred pricing,and that the original TCI equipment offering
was oversized for the District's needs.A revised quotation of TCI
Active Line Conditioners was received from OneSource on Aptil 7,
2011,as shown in the above table.The price is considerably less
than the original March 8,2011 quotation due to revised equipment
sizing.Therefore,it is recommended that the ALC equipment be
awarded to OneSource based on their April 7,2011 quotation.
In addition to installing VFDs and ALCs,the Project will include two
other modifications to the Pump Stations:1)the existing motors will
be remanufactured to be compatible with the new VFDs,and 2)air-
conditioning systems will be installed in the two electrical rooms.
Separate processes are being employed to competitively procure the

$200,000 to $525,000,to fund the committed and forecasted
expenditures for this Project.
Finance has determined that 100'of the funding is available from the
Betterment Fund for both ell'P2502 and ell'p2503.

GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION,
That the Otay Water District (District)Board of Director.
(Board)authorizes the General Manager to execute a professional
engineering services agreement with V&A Consulting Engineers,
Inc.(V&A)for Fiscal Years 2011. 2012,and 2013 (ending June 30,
2013)Cathodic Protection Program and for As-Needed Services in
an amount not-to-exceed $392,729.
COMMITTEE ACTION,
Please see Attachment A.
PURPose.
That the Board authorizes the General Manager to enter into a
professional engineering services agreement with V&A for the
Cathodic Protection Program and As-Needed Services in an 4Jr1)unt
not-to-exceed $392,729 for ?iscal Years 2011,2012,and 2013.
The District requires the services of an engineering consulting
firm who specializes in corrosion control to provide a variety
of professional services.The Cathodic Protection Program
includes the selection of appropriate corrosion resistant
materials,the use of coatings and linings to prevent corrosion,
and cathodic protection.The Cathodic Protection Program
results in long-term benefits to the District by ensuring that
all facilities are consistently designed,specified,
constructed,and tested in accordance with the District's
corrosion control standards.This continuing practice extends
the useful life of the District's steel reservoirs and pipelines
and reduces the potential for costly future failures.
The agreement with V&A will include a variety of tasks that will
assist staff in effectively managing the Cathodic Protection
Program.Their scope of services is as follows:
•Administration and updating of existing records and
manuals.
•New facility design review.
•Conduct a corrosion protection survey of all District steel
pipelines (approximately 83 pipelines totaling 300,000
L.F.,600 test stations,and 1,950 individual test reads).
•Corrosion control for 29 steel reservoirs.
•Training of District staff in inspection and monitoring of
facilities.
The agreement with V&A will also include As-Needed Cathodic
Protection services to provide the Oistricr with the ability to
obtain consulting services in a timely and efficient manner and
on an as-needed basis.The District will issue task orders to
the consultant for specific projects during the contract period.
The consultant will prepare a detailed Scope of Work,schedule,
and cost estimate for each task order assigned under the
contract.Upon written task order authorization from the
District,the consultant shall then proceed with the project as
described in the Scope of Work.
The crp projects that are estimated to require cathodic services
for Fiscal Years 2011, 2012,and 2013,are listed below:

TOTAL:$90,000
The District solicited corrosion services on the District's
website and several other publications including the Union
Tribune and San Diego Daily Transcript.
On January 14,2011,the District issued a formal Request for
Proposal (RFP)to five (5)consulting firms who specialize in
corrosion control.The firms had previously submitted a letter
of interest and a statement of qualifications.On February 14.
2011,three (3)proposals were received from the following
firms:
•Corrpro Companies
•Shiff I HDR
•V&A
The two (2)firms that chose not to propose are R.F.Yeager
Engineering and Farwest Corrosion Control Company.
In accordance with the District's Policy 21,staff evaluated and
scored all written proposals.On March 9,2011.staff
interviewed all three firms.The overall evaluation summary
sheet,including the oral interview portion,indicates how each
firm was scored (see Attachment B).The fee evaluation was not
disclosed to the panel members until after the panel submitted
their oral interview scores.The high scores V&A received on
the written and oral interview,combined with the low score
received from the fee evaluation,resulted in the two point
differential on the total overall score.V&A received the
highest overall score based on their experience,proposed method
to accomplish the work,and their ability to complete projects
on schedule.
It is anticipated that V&A's scope of services will take two
years to complete.V&A has worked successfully for the District
in the past and is readily available to provide the services
required.
FISCAL IMPACT,
This contract is for professional services based on the
District's need and schedule,and expenditures will not be made
until a task order is authorized by the District for the
consultant's professional services on a specific project.
