McCAIN <br />AND STAFFED CAPITAL PROJECTS EEER <br />BY: DEPARTMENT OF UTILI SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: TELEMETRY SYSTEM UPGRADE FOR WATER PLANTS AND <br />DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. UW -94 -15 -WC <br />BACKGROUND <br />"Tlirougtiohtt" �CoUcty.•'s • • water •system;- "dedicated- . teleplione• lines <br />have been traditionally utilized for data transmission (i.e., <br />equipment status and control). For example,. elevated water storage <br />tanks are monitored by the water plants to initialize the on/off of <br />high service pumps. This, however, is a more minor role when <br />compared to the ability to operate the north county pumping station <br />in a totally remote fashion via the data lines to the South County <br />plant. As the County's facilities expand and the number of <br />dedicated data lines increase, the cost of data transmission <br />escalates. Currently, the yearly cost associated with dedicated <br />phone service is $7,000.00±. With this in mind, we wish to proceed <br />with the conversion of all data dedicated phone lines to a radio <br />telemetry system. <br />On June 22, 1993, the Indian River County Board of County <br />Commissioners approved the firm of Camp'Dresser and McKee as our <br />water plant continuing services engineering firm (see attached <br />agenda item and minutes). We have negotiated a not -to -exceed <br />contract with CDM for engineering services on this project (see the <br />attached proposed Work Authorization). <br />ANALYSIS <br />The preliminary estimated costs associated with this project are as <br />follows: <br />Engineering $14,620.00 <br />Construction 70,000.00± <br />Total Project Cost $84,620.00± <br />September 20, 1994 62 <br />
