REPORT - FUNDING AGREEMENT BETWEEN SANTA ROSA WATER AND THE STATE WATER RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD AND AUTHORIZING AND DESIGNATING REPRESENTATIVES FOR THE PARK ROYAL CONSOLIDATION PROJECT
BACKGROUND: The State Water Resources Control Board (Water Board) is requiring the Park Royal Mutual Water Company (PRMWC) to connect to the City’s public water system. PRMWC serves 27 parcels from an existing groundwater source that exceeds the State maximum contaminant level for arsenic. Santa Rosa Water will be applying to the Water Board for funding for the Park Royal Consolidation Project (Project) which will provide for the permanent connection of the 27 parcels to the City’s water system. Each permanent connection includes water and infrastructure for both domestic use and fire protection. The Water Board requires approval from the governing board of the consolidating agency, in this case Santa Rosa Water, to carry out the Project, enter into a funding agreement with the Water Board, and accept and expend State funds for the Project.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by Santa Rosa Water that the Board of Public Utilities, by resolution, authorize Santa Rosa Water to carry out the Park Royal Consolidation Project (Project), and authorize the Director of Santa Rosa Water, or designee, to enter into a Funding Agreement with the State Water Resources Control Board and accept and expend State funds for the Project; to provide all assurances, certifications, or commitments in connection with the funding agreement; and to sign and approve any agreements, amendments, invoices, or requests for reimbursement related to the Project or the Funding Agreement.
REPORT - CONTRACT AWARD - PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CDM SMITH INC FOR PREPARATION OF THE REGIONAL WATER REUSE SYSTEM MASTER PLAN UPDATE
BACKGROUND: This proposed action will authorize CDM Smith Inc. to update the Regional Water Reuse System Master Plan originally completed in 2018. The update will incorporate findings from previous studies, including but not limited to the 2018 Master Plan, the Laguna Treatment Plant (LTP) Power Master Plan, the LTP Biosolids Management Strategic Plan Phase 2, the LTP Business Risk and Vulnerabilities Analysis (BRVA), and the Geysers Recharge System BRVA.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Contract Review Subcommittee and Santa Rosa Water that the Board of Public Utilities, by motion, approve a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with CDM Smith Inc. in a not-to-exceed amount of $1,348,313.00 to provide professional services for the preparation of the Regional Water Reuse System Master Plan (RWRSMP) Update.
