The Project is comprised of the following tasks: • Task 1— Water Distribution System Modeling Services • Task 2 — Water System Uni-directional Flushing Pilot Program • Task 3 — Water Utility Asset Management Plan Update • Task 4 — Water System Data Collection Tools Assistance • Task 5 — Water Filtration Plant RMP/PSM Program Compliance Audit Task 1— Water Distribution System Modeling Services Jacobs Engineering Group (Jacobs) will provide water distribution system hydraulic modeling services on an on -call, task order basis. Jacobs will utilize the City's calibrated model to conduct analyses to evaluate capital improvements and operational questions requested by the City. The analyses may involve water main replacement, new customer water demands, changes in operational conditions, or other capital improvements. Jacobs will provide the City with model results summarized in technical memoranda. These results may include specific recommendations pertaining to system pressures, available fire flows, or system operations. Jacobs will update the model with completed 2019 water main construction projects and review City as - built water main drawings for consistency with City Geographic Information System (GIS). All requests will be accompanied by a Task Order detailing the scope of work of the request and the estimated not to exceed cost for that scope of work. The budget assumed four (4) individual Task Orders will be completed under four (4) separate accounting task numbers. Jacobs will document each analysis in a technical memorandum (TM). Deliverables: Two (2) paper and one (1) PDF copies of the analysis TMs. Task 2 — Water System Uni-directional Flushing Pilot Program The City water distribution system is comprised of approximately 300 miles of water mains. While the City routinely flushes water mains for preventative maintenance and in response to customer concerns, the City is interested in implementing uni-directional flushing (UDF) to effectively and economically scour sediments, corrosion byproducts and biofilm from the distribution system piping. Removal of these materials results in improved distribution system water quality, decreased potential for corrosion, and improved ability to maintain residual disinfection. UDF involves flushing pipelines with water from portions of the system that have already been flushed or cleaned. High velocity flow rates are used for short periods of time to minimize the amount of water needed to flush the system. The City is planning to implement UDF in phases, with the first phase being a 2020 pilot program. The City will conduct the pilot program in two sectors of the distribution system so that it can apply lessons learned to the design and implementation of a system -wide UDF program. Jacobs will provide the following professional services: • Develop and assist the City in the execution of the pilot UDF program • Prepare UDF program public information and communication resources • Develop recommendations for comprehensive, system -wide UDF program Develop and Execute Pilot UDF Program Jacobs will use the City's hydraulic distribution system computer model to design the pilot UDF program. UDF will be piloted in two sectors of the system: the high (Southwest) pressure zone and a portion of the downtown area. The high-pressure zone was selected because it can be readily isolated from the rest of the system, it accounts for about 10 percent of the overall system water demand, and is characterized by newer pipelines. The UDF pilot will also be implemented in a downtown area comprised of older pipelines. Jacobs will work with the City to incorporate its knowledge of the system in the pilot program procedures and field resources plan. Jacobs will develop detailed maps indicating individual valve and hydrant operation for flushing. The UDF pilot will be designed to limit system disturbances to the immediate area being flushed to avoid water quality problems. Jacobs will provide training for City personnel who will execute the UDF pilot to help ensure the program is implemented effectively and consistently and is sufficiently documented. Jacobs will collaborate with the City to address the following UDF pilot program activities: • Describe hydrant and valve operation • Define traffic control • Public information and affected -customer notification • Personnel and customer safety procedures, equipment and coordination • Document lessons learned Public Information and Communication For successful UDF program execution, the City will provide timely and effective communication to its customers and other stakeholders. Jacobs will work with the City to prepare a public information and communication plan that identifies key communication issues for each area of the pilot, channels of communication, standardized messages for the public and water dependent businesses (hospitals, beauty salons, dentists, laundromats, restaurants, etc.). When necessary, flushing activities may be scheduled during non -business hours to minimize any inconvenience. Jacobs will script messages for City personnel who may interact with customers in the field or through telephone inquiries. System -Wide UDF Program Recommendations Jacobs will document lessons learned from executing the UDF pilot and incorporate those findings into refined UDF protocols, data needs, and resource plans needed for the comprehensive implementation of UDF. Jacobs will prepare recommendations for applying the lessons learned to a distribution system- wide UDF program. Deliverables: Hard and electronic copies of UDF procedures, maps, and field documentation forms; public information announcements, maps, and customer service messages; recommendations for implementing system -wide UDF program. Task 3 — Water Utility Asset Management Plan Update In 2010, Jacobs assisted the City in the development of its asset management plan for the water utility vertical assets (Water Filtration Plant [WFP], intakes, pump stations, and elevated storage tanks). After implementing the top priority risk reduction projects identified in 2010, the City updated its asset management plan in 2015 to develop a new list of prioritized improvements. Jacobs will facilitate the 2020 asset management plan update by conducting 4 meetings with water utility staff to discuss and develop relative risk scores for utility vertical assets. In 2010 and 2015, Jacobs used the industry standard criteria of 'likelihood of asset failure' and 'consequence of asset failure' to estimate asset relative risk scores. In preparation for the City's 2020 water utility risk and resiliency assessment required by America's Water Infrastructure Act of 2018, Jacobs will integrate the additional criteria of 'vulnerability' in the evaluation of assets. This approach will not hinder the routine asset management plan updating process and will save the City time and money when completing the risk and resiliency assessment. Jacobs will update the City's asset hierarchy and develop conceptual -level project cost estimates for the top 15 risk reduction projects. Jacobs will document the asset management planning process and findings in the draft 2020 Asset Management Plan Update. Jacobs will facilitate a draft update review meeting with the City. During the meeting, potential implementation constraints, between risk reduction projects and capital projects already planned by the City, will be discussed and documented for inclusion in the final update. Deliverables: Draft and final 2020 Asset Management Plan Update Task 4 — Water System Data Collection Tools Assistance City staff currently uses mobile (electronic tablet based) data collection to record information about water distribution system flushing and about customers' water service lines. The existing tools are linked to the City's GIS and provide helpful spatial information; however, there are some deficiencies in how collected data is leveraged in system operations, maintenance, and reporting. Further, with the proposed revisions to the Lead and Copper Rule, it will be beneficial to the City to transition some water quality data collection and recording from paper to electronic field data collection formats (spatial or form based). These changes will help the City more efficiently collect, manage, and gain insights from water system information. Jacobs will collaborate with City water quality, water distribution, inspection services, and information management staff to plan and implement enhancements'to existing mobile tools. Jacobs will facilitate two meetings to brainstorm and discuss potential improvements with City staff, focusing on information needed for regulatory compliance, information that informs City decision making, and efficiently handling the data (handling data once). The first meeting will focus on identifying the spatial information needs related to requirements for lead service line replacement, residential cross -connection control, and customer meter replacement. The second meeting will focus on potential near -term data collection enhancements identified by the City related to routine operations and maintenance. These include recording more specific water quality field information during water main flushing, electronic collection of distribution system lead and copper sampling data, and electronic management of outside laboratory data. Potential improvements will be prioritized based on estimated cost and required schedule to implement. The discussion and evaluation of data collection needs will summarized in a TM. As requested by the City and within available task funding, Jacobs will assist City information management staff in making software changes needed to implement near -term enhancements and in training mobile tools users. Deliverables: Meeting agendas, handouts, and minutes; Water System Data Collection Tools TM, software updates Task 5— WFP RMP/PSM Program Compliance Audit The City stores chlorine gas and anhydrous ammonia at the WFP for use in the disinfection process. The City prevents releases of chlorine gas and anhydrous ammonia to protect employees and the public by adhering to its Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Risk Management Program (RMP) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Process Safety Management (PSM) plans. RMP and PSM compliance audits at the WFP must be conducted every 3 years and meet the requirements of OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.119(o) and RMP regulation 40 CFR Part 68.79. The primary goals of conducting the compliance audit are the following: Review sufficient data to verify compliance with RMP/PSM requirements and good process safety practices Identify process safety deficiencies and corrective actions Increase safety awareness among plant staff Jacobs will conduct the compliance audit using OSHA's guideline for conducting regulatory RMP/PSM compliance audits (Compliance Guidelines and Enforcement Procedures) and EPA's Guidance forAuditing Risk Management Plans/Programs under Clean AirAct Section 112(r) (August 1999). A compliance audit consists of separating the RMP/PSM program into its elements and auditing each element to determine compliance and effectiveness. Jacobs will complete a Compliance Audit Certification Page and a Compliance Audit Checklist for the program elements. Using these documents helps prepare the facilities for a potential OSHA or EPA audit. Jacobs will conduct the audit by reviewing RMP/PSM program documentation, observing WFP conditions and safety practices and conducting staff interviews. Jacobs will record any RMP/PSM program deficiencies identified during the audit and summarize audit results in a Compliance Audit Report of Findings. Deliverables: Two (2) paper and two (2) PDF copies of the Compliance Audit Report of Findings. Project and Quality Management Project and quality management activities are integrated in the tasks that comprise the 2020 Water Utility Technical Services Project. Jacobs will manage the delivery of the professional technical services and work products to meet the City's schedule and budget. Project management duties include project instructions addressing team communication, quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) and cost control. Instructions to the project delivery team will guide performance by defining the following: • Detailed task assignments, work plan and deliverables. • Project schedule, budget and performance monitoring. Communication within the project team will be maintained through regular team meetings, teleconferences, and e-mail. During project meetings and workshops, Jacobs will provide project status information. Jacobs will submit a brief description of project activities by task with each monthly invoice. Jacobs will perform a QA/QC review of completed work and project progress before submitting work products to the City. Schedule This scope of services will be delivered January through December 2020. To provide information that may be helpful to the City's annual budgeting process, Jacobs proposes to complete Tasks 3 and 4 by May 2020. 2020 J F M A M 1 J A S 0 N D Task 1- Water Distribution System Modeling services Task 2- Water System Uni-directional Flushing Pilot Program Task 3 - Water Utility Asset Management Plan Update Task 4- Water System Data Collection Tools Assistance Task 5- Water Filtration Plant RMP/PSM Program Compliance Audit 2`N !®N !«§ ■,. 2®§E !f! .,| -.■ °| ,|; e|e ;; | ■! &�!!| |e a,» ■ .| �| !|fit s |� I set )|`-;|;�■|r�;|_�;|��;! ) f \ - |I; k\\ \\\\\ \}\ }} .!; ■�� !!! !!r !a� JACOBS 2020 HOURLY CHARGE RATES for PROFESSIONALS AND TECHNICIANS Classification Senior Consultant Senior Project Manager, Senior Construction Manager Senior Technologist, Senior Designer, Senior Modeler Project Designer, Project Engineer, Project Modeler Staff Designer, Staff Engineer, Staff Modeler Junior Engineer, Junior Modeler Senior CAD Technician CAD Technician Senior Clerical, Graphic Designer Clerical Project Accountant L.
