We propose to accomplish the work in two tasks under the following terms and conditions: SCOPE OF WORK TASK 1 - ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES FOR MEETING IMMEDIATE WATER SUPPLY NEEDS 1. Re-examine projected 1981-1985 water demands and peaking factors for Redlands. (a) Investigate current requirements based on high demands experienced during the summer of 1981. (b) Revise future water projections if necessary. (c) Compare future water projections to the quantity of water available from existing sources of supply and determine immediate needs. 2. Identify feasible alternatives for meeting future water requirements. PLANNING . . RESEARCH . . . ENV I RON M ENTAL F N � I N E E R I N G JAM.

(b) They shall include but not be limited to 0 denitrification of Highland Avenue Pumping Plant wells 0 denitrification of Texas Street wells 0 blending of high and low nitrate water in the system 0 removal of TCE at the Rees well 0 construction of new wells 0 any combination of the above alternatives. 3. Estimate capital and O&M costs of each feasible alternative. (a) Rely as much as possible on previous work performed for the 1981 Master Plan update. (b) Update costs wherever more current information is available. 4. Perform economic evaluation of potential sources of immediate additional supply. (a) Perform economic comparison over the next three years. (b) Examine their potential for cost effective use after the three year period. (c) Qualitatively analyze the alternatives including such items as reliability, time required to implement and relationship to long range water supply needs. 5. Rank alternatives and recommend the most favorable alternative. (a) Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of all alternatives. (b) Meet with the City and present the results of Task 1. TASK I[- EVALUATION OF HYDRAULIC PROBLEM IN ZONE 179750 Perform hydraulic analysis and field investigation of Zone 1.750 to determine location and cause of reservoir operational problems. 1. Review existing land use and demand in Zone 1750. i 3 hIES M ,gON'I'GOMEHXGOxsMTING ENGINEERS.INC 555 East Walnut Street,Pasadena,California 91101/(213)796-9141/(213)681-4255 City of Redlands -3- July 21, 1981 (a) Wherever possible, rely on information collected for the 1981 Master Flan Update. (b) Update this information where appropriate based on recent demand experience. 2. Collect data on actual system operation in the summer of 1981, including (a) the settings of the pressure reducing valves (b) the elevations and fluctuation of reservoir dater levels (c) the operation of booster pumping plants (d) the operation of sources of supply that contribute flow to Zone 1750. 3. Model Zone 1750 on the computer. Model Zone 1750 on the computer utilizing the JMM Linear II program. This computer program would enable a more sophisticated analysis of Zone 1750 and includes the operation of pressure reducing stations. (a) Utilize data assembled for the 1975 and 1981 computer models as much as possible. (b) Establish the computer model such that the addition of other pressure zones in the future is facilitated. (c) Run model and examine the results for conformance with actual system operation. 4. Install pressure recorders in Zone 1750. (a) Determine the location, number, and duration of pressure recorder measurements based on computer model results and discussions with the City staff. (b) Analyze pressure data collected. 5. Identification of hydraulic problem in system. (a) Based on discussions with the City, determine whether a static computer model, a dynamic computer model or some combination of the two is needed to identify the problem areas. (b) Based on discussions with the City and results of additional computer analysis, relocate pressure recorders if necessary to identify the exact location of the hydraulic problem.

Recommend solutions to hydraulic problem. (a) Describe problem and alternative solutions to the problem. (b) Estimate costs and time to implement various solutions. (c) Recommend the most appropriate solution. (d) Discuss the recommendation with the City. TASK M--WRITE A LETTER REPORT SUMMARING THE RESULTS AND THE CONCLUSIONS OF THE STUDY (a) Review results and conclusions of Tasks 1 and 2 with the City. (b) Submit a final copy of a letter report to the City summarizing the results and the conclusions of the study. This letter report shall serve as an addendum to the 1981 Water System Master Plan Update. B. CITY FURNISHED SERVICES It is understood that the City will furnish all information concerning existing facilities, recent production and consumption records, test results, and any other data pertinent to this project. In addition, it is understood that the City will make all arrangements and pay all costs required to install pressure recorders in Zone 1750 for conducting the pressure survey. Special effort on our part, if needed, to extract information from City records will be considered additional services. C. .FEES AND CONDITIONS FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES 1. Engineering services described in the Scope of Work are provided iii accordance with the current schedule of Fees and, Conditions, a copy of which is attached. 2. Based on our present knowledge of the work described, the total estimated budget is $17,000. This amount will not be exceeded without prior authorization by the City. 3. If at any time during the performance of Task 2, the solution to the hydraulics problem in Zone 1750 is resolved to the City's satisfaction, further work pertaining to this task will be terminated. 4. Work described for Task 1 and Task 2 would be completed. within 75 days after acceptance of this proposal. Following review of results of the study with the City, 30 copies of a letter report would be submitted within 15 days.
