<br /> SUMMARY :
<br /> The estunated cost associated with the outline system upgrades is $207 . 700 - It is the desire of the
<br /> Department of Utility Services to facilitate the creation of the smele water production and management
<br /> SCADA system by the outlined three phases . The overall system concept and the authorization to proceed
<br /> with Phase I of the above work plan are requested under this Agenda Item . Subsequent Phases will be
<br /> brought before the Board of County Commissioners for acceptance under separate agenda items as the
<br /> scope of work and fee schedule for each has been fully developed and verified by the SCADA Team .
<br /> At the present time the SCADA Team has completed its development of the Phase I Scope of Work _
<br /> Staff has obtained a price quote from ROCHA Controls Inc . in the amount of $ 18- 084 for their portion of
<br /> Phase 1 . work ( See Attachment-A) . The County ' s Computer Services Department will be involved in any
<br /> computer hardware and / or software upgrades as necessary to link the Utility plant sites to the Counrv ' s
<br /> network system . ROCHA Controls has been used previously by the County for software and programming
<br /> changes at both water plant sites . ROCHA have also provided initial support / design for the North County
<br /> Reverse Osmosis plant re-pump site in 1993/ 1994 along with design and support for the new North Beach
<br /> Re-pump Station in 1999/2000 . They have provided design and support for the South Countv Reverse
<br /> Osmosis plant upgrade in 1992 and support work at the Grand Harbor Re-pump station. The staff of the
<br /> Computer Services Department has reviewed the attached proposal for ROCHA Controls and provides
<br /> their endorsement of the scope of work and associated fees .
<br /> It is expected that the outline system upgrades will require a minimum of a year to complete .
<br /> The proposed SCADA system improvements will reduce the current leased/dedicated telephone lines by
<br /> converting to wireless (radio) telemetry communication type equipment thereby allowing the removal of
<br /> leased based telephone lines . The deletion of select leased telephone lines will result in a net saving of
<br /> approximately $4, 840 per year in operating expense .
<br /> BUDGET / FINANCIAL HISTORY :
<br /> The Department of Utilities has over the last 5 -years been planting for a countywide SCADA system
<br /> to monitor and if necessary control vital infrastructure components such as the Reverse Osmosis Plants .
<br /> Miscellaneous projects such as the North RO Plant Construction, South Regional Wastewater Treatment
<br /> Facility and the North Beach RO Plant conversion to a Repump Station initially incorporated a part of the
<br /> overall SCADA system plan . I If
<br /> The construction of the North RO Plant was one of the first integral pieces in the start of a countywide
<br /> SCADA system. However, the Board may recall that the contractor for the RO Plant construction was in
<br /> excess of 250 days behind schedule and was levied monetary damages as a result of their performance .
<br /> The same contractor had also been awarded the contract for the South Regional WWTF Expansion prior to
<br /> their downturn in performance. Again, the contractor was behind schedule and was levied monetary
<br /> damages as a result of their performance .
<br /> On December 7, 1999 the Department of Utilities recommended to the Board of County
<br /> Commissioners that SCADA system improvements be deleted from the South regional WWTF contract and
<br /> that the funds be reserved for use in implementing SCADA system improvements . The December 7, 1999
<br /> Agenda further requested that Staff be authorized to negotiate with the local vendors, suppliers, and
<br /> subcontractors affiliated with the project and who were able to perform the required work ( see attachment-
<br /> C) .
<br /> The Board of County Commissioners has finalized three major construction activities related to the
<br /> proposed water production pumping system upgrade. Contained within all three major projects, were
<br /> originally designed elements of instrumentation and control technology and can be illustrated as follows :
