Brown, County Administrator <br />From: Vincent Burke, PE, Director of Utility Services <br />Through: Jennifer Hyde, Purchasing Manager <br />Prepared by: Terry Southard, Operations Manager, Utility Services <br />Subject: South County Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant Part A Supervisory Control and <br />Data Acquisition System Upgrades, Kimley-Horn and Associates Work Order 4 <br />Background/Analysis: <br />Indian River County Department of Utility Services (IRCDUS) owns and operates two water plants: the <br />South County Reverse Osmosis (SCRO) Water Treatment Plant (WTP) located at 1550 9th Street SW, Vero <br />Beach, and the North County Reverse Osmosis (NCRO) WTP located at 775158 th Ave, Vero Beach. <br />In 2014, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., (KHA) prepared a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition <br />(SCADA)/Program Logic Control (PLC) System Evaluation for the two water treatment plants and <br />provided recommendations for improvements. The study recommended phasing of the project in order <br />to support each subsequent improvement while also maintaining operations at the plants. The <br />recommendation has since evolved to include a redundancy and resiliency approach through the <br />addition of a new high service pump PLC, independent of the main PLC. <br />Pursuant to the Agreement for Professional Services for Water Plant and Water Resources Engineering <br />Services Request for Quotation 2019070, KHA has provided Work Order 4 to prepare bid documents, <br />assist IRCDUS with bidding/procurement, provide construction phase services for proposed <br />improvements, and the integration labor required to program each of the respective upgrades to the <br />main PLC and proposed high service pump panel. <br />Funding: <br />Funds for this project in the amount of $133,884.00 are derived from the Renewal and Replacement <br />(R&R) budget in the Utilities operating fund. Utilities operating funds are generated from water and <br />sewer sales. <br />Description <br />Account Number <br />Amount <br />WTF SCADA System Updates <br />47121936-044699-19536 <br />$133,884.00 <br />F:\Utilities\UTILITY - EMPLOYEE FOLDERS\Terry Southard\Agendas\Agenda-South RO Part A SCADA Upgrades Vb.Doc Page 18f.3 <br />
