COMMITTEE ACTION: Please see Attachment A. PURPOSE: To obtain Board authorization for approval of a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the construction of the 640-1 Reservoir. ANALYSIS: Construction of two 10-million-gallon (MG)reservoirs for a total of 20 million gallons of additional storage will help OWD to improve water quality in the North District by centralizing and improving control over disinfection of water supplied by CWA.10 million gallons of the 640-1 Reservoir are needed as operational ~torage for the La PresaSystem.An additional 10 million gallons are being constructed as the next,and probably last,increment of emergency storage for the North District. The 640-1 Reservoir will also decrease electrical energy costs because the reservoir will feed the 850-2 and 832-1 pump stations, thus reducing pumping lift by 120 feet.This will enable the District to save approximately $100,000 in energy costs per year initially,and $170,000 ultimately. On September 14,2004,the District's General Manager signed a contract with Infrastructure Engineering Corporation (IEC)to perform engineering design and environmental services for the 640-1 Reservoir.These environmental services include the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND)to satisfy the conditions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).HDR Engineering,the sub-consultant of IEC,has completed an Initial Study and draft MND. Based on the findings of these documents,and with proper mitigation measures taken as outfined in the draft MND,the project will not have a significant affect on the environment. The Draft MND was submitted for 30-day public review on November 2, 2005.One comment letter was received from the u.S.Fish and Wildlife Service.HDR Engineering has incorporated their comments into the Final MND.HDR Engineering finalized the MND on January 19, 2006. FISCAL IMPACT: None. STRATEGIC GOAL: This project supports the following strategic goal:Design and construct new infrastructure -satisfy current and future water needs for Potable,Recycled and Wastewater Services. LEGAL IMPACT: < No legal impact is anticipated.However,in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act process,the Final MND will have· the normal 30-day legal challenge period once the Notice of Determination (NOD)is recorded with the County of San Diego.The NOD will be recorded within five (5)working days after Board adoption of the MND.

COMMITTEE ACTION: Please see Attachment A. PURPOSE: To obtain Board authorization to award a professional engineering services contract to COM for the IRP Project scope of work for a not-to-exceed amount of $225,000. ANALYSIS: The objectives of the Integrated Water Resources Plan (IRP) Project is to identify available water resources,establish targets,and develop strategies and approaches,prepare feasibility analyses,and establish target cost estimates for the development of water resources including conservation,local groundwater supplies,recycled water supplies,purchased supplies through water transfers,imported State Water Project and Colorado River Aqueduct supplies,local water treatment plant capacity acquisitions,desalination opportunities,and other supplies as identified for the District. Staff has identified six primary objectives that drive the IRP Project and are listed in the current order of priority,which are: 1.Water Quality 2.Reliability 3.Affordability 4.Flexibility 5.Diversity 6.Environmehtal and Institutional Constraints The outcome of the IRP Project is to develop a preferred achievable resource mix which would ensure that the District's supply needs will be available to meet full service retail demands without interruption through ultimate build out of the District. Staff has determined that it is in the District's best interest· to contract with a professional engineering services consulting firm (Consultant)to provide engineering planning services for the development and formulation of an IRP Project. It is OWD's intent to develop,formulate,and shape the IRP Project outcomes in collaboration with all interested stake holders and the Board. The scope of work for the IRP Project consists of the following tasks;1)Project Management and Administration,2)Research, Data,and Information Gathering,3)Develop Supply Opportunities,4)Preliminary Findings Development Process,and 5)Development of IRP Project Report. Following the District's consultant selection process as per Policy 21,on November 14,2005,staff issued a written Request for Proposal (RFP)for the IRP Project.Of the twelve (12) professional engineering consulting firms that received the RFP, four (4)proposals were received by the December 14,2005 due date from the following firms: •Kennedy/Jenks Consultants •MWH Americas,Inc. •Parsons Brinckerhoff Quada &Douglas,Inc. •Camp Dresser &McKee,Inc. The consulting firms,HDR and Boyle Engineering,which both had received the RFP,choose to join forces with MWH Americas,Inc., Parsons Brinckerhoff Quada &Douglas,Inc.,respectively. The IRP Project consultant selection panel comprised of five staff members (Engineering,Operations,and Development Services).Staff evaluated and scored the submitted written proposals.Based upon the written proposals Staff selected all four firms to the formal presentation and interview process. MWH Americas subsequently chose not to participate in the presentation and interview process due to their workload. Following the presentation and interviews,Staff contacted the references of th~top two ranked firms which were based upon their written proposals,presentation,and response to interview questions.Also,Staff opened the fee proposals of the final three ranked firms. Based upon all the information available the consultant ranking process was completed and the selection panel concluded that COM is the most experienced and qualified consultant with the best '.c overall proposal and sufficient manhours to accomplish the scope of work.The COM average manhour cost is also lower than the second rated consultant (Kennedy/Jenks Consultants). Staff recommends the award of a professional engineering services contract to~not-to-exceed amount of $225,000. FISCAL IMPACT:~ ~ For fiscal year 2006 the approved operating budget fot the Integrated Water Resources Plan (Project No.P1210)is $250,000. To date,$5,958 has been spent on the IRP Project.Total commitments and expenditures to date,including this contract, are approximately $230,598. Finance has determined that 100%of the funding is available from the operating budget. STRATEGIC GOAL: This project supports the Otay WO's Mission Statement,"To provide safe,reliable water,recycled water and wastewater services to our community in an innovative,cost efficient, water wise and environmentally responsible manner.",and the Otay WD's Strategic Goal;"To satisfy current and future water needs for potable,recycled,and wastewater services."
