EXHIBIT A Work Order Number 17 Indian River County Department of Utility Services Floridan Wellfield Assessment and Improvements PROJECT UNDERSTANDING Raw water is the lifeblood and the main source of water of the Oslo water treatment facilities (WTP) and Hobart water treatment facilities (WTP). With recent and more frequent wellpump motor failures at the Hobart water treatment plant, limitations in the South WTP wellfield controls and RTU system, and on-going wellfield improvements at the South Oslo road water treatment facilities, it is prudent to improve the sustainability and reliability of these wells. The purpose of this project is to improve the sustainability and reliability of the wellfields and implement a plan to standardize equipment and operations of wells, improve ireliability of the wellfields, and provide upgrades to the fiber optic and controls system for the wellfields. Standardizing equipment and operations will allow interchangeability of equipment among all of the wells, resulting in a more robust wellfield system. SCOPE OF WORK A thorough evaluation of the existing wellfield performances with respect to mechanical efficiency, specific capacity and performance, and electrical conditions will be provided. TASK 1- WELL PERFORMANCE - FIELD TESTING Consultant will conduct well testing, collect field data, and update well performance data collected in December 2013. Consultant will perform wellfield testing of fourteen (14) wells in the North and South wellfields (the new well S7 and S4 will not be included) which will consist of water quality parameter testing: sand, silt density index (SDI), turbidity, hydrogen sulfide, iron, pH, dissolved oxygen, and specific conductance; specific capacity testing, review of SCADA system logger data, static and pumping water levels, pumping rates, and specific capacity. 210 FAUtilities\UTILITY - Engineering\WATER\Wells\Admin\1RCU Floridan Well Improvements 1.29.18.docx Page 1 of 7
