The BCE developed and evaluated various opportunities for the City to meet its long-term water supply and treatment needs in a more cost-effective manner than a plan that was currently being considered City. ,\mendment No.1 to Task Order No.3 was issued to Brown and Caldwell on February 21, 2006. Under this task, Brown and Caldwell re\Tiewed Consumptive l'se Permits (Cl'P) held by adjacent utilities, reviewed operational data from utilities using the Floridan Aquifer as a raw water source, discussed opportunities with the SFWMD to modify the existing cep, and de\Teloped an alternative that would satisfy the City's water supply strategy with lower risk and lower capital cost compared with the expansion of the City's East Water Treatment Plant. On June 28, 2006, Brown and Caldwell submitted a memorandum to the City summarizing the results of the BCE analysis. The memorandum summarized the components and life- cycle costs of the two alternatives that met the goals established in Amendment No.1 and presented a third alternative (Alternatille 3) that potentially held even greater benefits to the City. The results of the analysis were presented to the City Commission on July 11, 2006, with the caveat that A/ternatille 3 needed additional evaluation. The Commission was pleased with the study and requested that Brown and Caldwell perform additional analysis on /Uternatille 3. Additional assessment forAlternatilJe 3 was funded under Amendment 2 to Task Order No.3. In summary, this alternative consisted of the following elements: . Part 1 - Convey water from the City's west surficial wellfield to the East Water Treatment Plant . Part 2 - Convert the West \Vater Treatment Plant from nano-ftltration into a low pressure reverse osmosis (LPRO) treatment facility. This will require the construction of up to 7 upper Floridan Aquifer production wells More detailed findings from an assessment of . UternatilJe 3 were summarized in a memorandum and presented to the City Commission on September 6, 2006. During the course of completing work for Amendment 1, a series of changes occurred that resulted in Brown and Caldwell incurring greater expenses that anticipated. In addition, we were asked to complete several tasks that were outside of our scope of work covered in the original Task Order No.3 and Amendments 1 and 2. The additional services provided by Brown and Caldwell were discussed with the City J\Ianager and the Utilities Director and were documented in a memorandum dated August 16,2007. This Amendment 3 is a formal request to recover expenses incurred while conducting work on behalf of the City. SECTION 2 - OBJECTIVES This Amendment 3 to Task Order 3 is a request to recover expenses previously incurred on behalf of the City during the development of the Business Case Evaluation and subsequent tasks. SECTION 3 - SCOPE OF WORK The following additional serVIces were provided to the City during the completion of Task Order 3: . Meetings with SFWMD - Two additional meetings were conducted with SFWMD to discuss water supply strategies and how these may be interpreted under the District's new evaluation criteria. In April 2006 (the middle of this project), SFWMD issued a policy stating that no additional water would be made available from the regional system. This policy directly impacted the proposed alternatives that Brown and Caldwell had begun to develop and required reconsideration and additional effort. . Additional Analysis - Brown and Caldwell conducted life cycle analyses on 3 additional alternatives prior to presentations to Commission on July 11, 2006. The life cycle cost analyses included analyses of capital investment, operations and maintenance expenditures and replacement costs associated with the three new alternatives. This additional work was not funded. . Presentation to Commission - On July 11, 2006, Mr. Olson made a presentation to Commission summarizing the City's water balance and proposing three potential alternatives. The presentation was well received and was later provided electronically to the City for internal use. . Summary Report - In February 2007, Brown and Caldwell submitted a summary report to the City documenting the entire Business Case Evaluation process. This report was submitted on February] 6, 2007, and was prepared at the request of the Utilities Director. SECTION 5 - PROJECT SCHEDULE Work was completed on these tasks prior to February 2007. 2 SECTION 6 - COMPENSATION Compensation for services rendered under this Task Order 3 - Amendment No.3 will be a Lump Sum Fee of $38,265, in accordance with terms and conditions defined in the Professional Services Agreement dated November 18, 2003, and as revised from time to time.
