J CJ City Co p roller 3 SCOPE OF SERVICES City of Oshkosh Water Utility Water Quality and Disinfection Process Update The purpose of this project is to update operating materials (e.g., standard operating procedures, refresher training for operators) related to the operation of the primary and backup disinfection processes at the Water Filtration Plant. The operating materials will be developed following evaluation of raw water quality data, treatment water quality parameters and setpoints, and finished water quality. The operating materials will also encompass secondary, or residual disinfection, to identify potential distribution system residual disinfectant issues. Water Quality Data Review CH2M HILL will review historic raw water, chemical water treatment and finished water quality data. In addition, the performance of coagulation and disinfection treatment processes will be evaluated. Distribution system water quality measurements will be reviewed. CH2M HILL will summarize the data and make recommendations related to potential water treatment operational changes and water quality monitoring instrumentation and strategies. These recommendations may include seasonal pH adjustment with sodium hydroxide and the introduction of measuring UV254 absorbance to indicate total organic carbon concentration. Operating guidance will be prepared for sodium hydroxide addition (chemical doses) and additional water quality monitoring and associated setpoints. Disinfection Process Review Given the addition of the new Backwash Supply /CT Basin, CH2M HILL will review the primary and secondary disinfection processes and prepare a comprehensive and easy -to- understand overview disinfection with ozone, free chlorine and residual chloramination. The overview will serve as the basis for standard operating procedures and training materials for Plant staff and will be consistent with state reporting requirements. CH2M HILL will prepare the materials for review by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) and filing with the state. Refresher Operator Training CH2M HILL will prepare operator training sessions to focus on the Filtration Plant's disinfection facilities and the water quality parameters essential to meeting disinfection requirements at the Plant and in the distribution system. Compensation The total compensation for professional engineering services is $20,000.
