• r H.H. WATER TREATMENT PLANTS - CONTINUING CONSULTING SERVICES - CAMP DRESSER MCKEE The Board reviewed a Memorandum of August 2411998: DATE: AUGUST 24, 1998 TO: JAMES E. CHANDLER COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR FROM: DONALD R. HUBBS, P. \ DIRECTOR OF UTILITY ii PREPARED WILLIAM F. McCAIN, AND STAFFED CAPITAL PROJE INFER BY: DEPARTMENT SERVICES SUBJECT: CONTINUING CONSULTING SERVICES FOR WATER TREATMENT PLANTS WORK AUTHORIZATION NOS. 2A AND 4 On November 25, 1997, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners approved a continuing consulting services agreement with Camp Dresser and McKee (CDM) for water treatment plants. At the time of contract approval, two work authorization were also approved—Work Authorizations 1 and 2. (Please reference the attached agenda package and minutes.) A third work authorization was approved in early 1998 (Work Authorization No. 3) for assistance with permitting issues at the North Beach R.O. Plant in the amount of $1,500.00. Staff is now before the Board for approval of two additional work authorizations with CDM. ANALYSIS The two proposed work authorizations are as follows: Work Authorization No. 2A: This work authorization is an extension of Work Authorization No. 2 previously approved and included in the attached November 25, 1997 backup. As the project evolved, it has become an actual permit renewal rather than a permit modification, requiring the County to perform additional water quality modeling for mixing zone permitting and answering another DEP request for additional information (RAI). The negotiated fee for the proposed additional work is $1,000.00. Please reference attached Work Authorization No. 2A. Funding will be from Account No. 471- 219-536-033.13. Work Authorization No. 4: Supplies assistance and training to the County's reverse osmosis plant staff (i.e., North County R.O.) in fine-tuning the plant's waste discharge treatment system, training in the operation of the system, system optimization (operational cost savings), and to assist in toxicity sampling and lab analysis interpretation. This will assure the County the best chance of passing stringent DEP toxicity testing requirements prior to discharge in the Indian River. Passing of these tests may save thousands of dollars in possible additional treatment and testing requirements, which could be required by DEP. The negotiated fee for Work Authorization No. 4 services is a not -to -exceed price of $3,000.00. Funding will be from Account No. 475-000- 169-236.00. RECOMMENDATION The staff of the Department of Utilitv Services recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve Work Authorization Nos. 2A and 4 as presented and authorize the chairman to execute same.
