SUBJECT: Water Treatment Plant Improvement Program Status Report
BACKGROUND
City Council has authorized upgrading the Lester d. Berglund Water Treatment
Plant in order to meet Federal and State drinking water treatment requirements
contained in the Surface Water Treatment Rule promulgated from the Safe
Drinking Water Act.
Work has begun on the traveling bridge repairs (Phase I). Malcolm Pirnie
Engineers are currently completing plans and specifications for the largest
phase (Phase II) of the improvements. They will complete the Distribution
Control System PS&E in several months. Under a separate design contract design
has begun on a new Public Services Administration Building and Operations
Center Improvements (Phase III). The final phase (Phase IV) of improvements
will be the currently unscheduled replacement of the floating cover on the
Clearwell. The basic elements of work and current cost estimate follows:
Phase I-
Traveling Bridge Repairs (underway) $ 300,000
Phase II-
New Filters 2,300,000
Chemical System Improvements 890,000
Existing Filter Improvements 1,440,000
Standby Power Improvements 19,000
Distribution Control System 625,000

Phase IV-
Replace Clearwell Cover 300,000
Subtotal: $6,726,000
Studies and Predesign Tasks (Completed) $ 240,000
Design (underway) 595,000
Construction Management 758,000
Total Improvement Costs: $8,319,000
The funding sources identified for this project include:
Water Fund
RDA Funds (1993 Bonds) $2,500,000
Revenue Bonds 2,500,000
Pilot Plant Study (510-1714) 211,450
Water Fund Reserves (510) 2.908.500
Subtotal: $8,119,950
Sewer Fund
Sewer Fund ResJrves (520) $ 200,000
Total: $8,319,950
FINDINGS
The improvement program is designed to meet the Surface Water Treatment Rule
and Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. Expansion of the Control Building
(1,200 sq. ft.) was added to house the control system for the remote sites and
the plant. The Administration Building (3,900 sq. ft.) and Operations Center
improvements were added with partial funding from the Sewer Fund. Sewer funds
also finance a the portion of the Control System Improvements associated with
monitoring remote sewer pumping and metering stations.
The replacement for the Clearwell Cover will be constructed after the plant
improvements are completed. The State Department of Health Services is still
reviewing our analysis of alternatives to recycle waste wash water. Staff and
our consultants feel that the best option is to continue to return the settled
waste wash water to the headworks of the treatment plant. We have requested a
five year deferral in order to conduct additional studies to analyze the
options in more depth.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for this improvement program were budgeted with the overall improvement
program. Staff is recommending the transfer of $211,450 from Fund 510-1714
(Pilot Plant Study for Water Treatment) and $200,000 from unappropriated Sewer
Fund Reserves to this project.
