CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Representatives from the Folsom Tourism Bureau (FTB) will provide an annual report. No action is requested of the City Council.
BACKGROUND :
In 2012, the City Council established the Folsom To urism Business Improvement District (FTBID / District) for a twenty-year term beginning in January 2013 and ending in December 2032. The assessment rate was set at four (4%) percent of gross room rental revenue. At that time, it was estimated that annual assessments for District would total approximately $780,000, and those assessments were specifically identified to be used to promote tourism within the District, provide marketing and visitor programs to promote Folsom lodging businesses as tourism visitor destinations, and to fund projects, programs and activities that benefit lodging business within the District.
At the same time as the District was established, the Folsom Tourism Bureau (FTB) was named as the District “Owners’ Association” and entered i nto an agreement with the City to administer the District. Under the terms of the ag reement, the FTB is obligated to administer all District services and is fully responsible for developing, implementing, directing and operating District programs. The FTB is required t o have an audited financial report for District funds by a licensed CPA which shall examin e revenue and expenses and include a balance sheet and changes in fund balances for the prior two years.

For its part of the agreement, the City is obligated to collect the annual assessments, direct the disbursement of assessment funds to FTB on a quarte rly basis, maintain an ongoing liaison with the FTB, and provide general assistance and in formation to the FTB and the public at large.

RE: Folsom Tourism Bureau Improvement District
Fiscal Year Annual Report: 7-1-2024 through 6-30-2025
______________________________________________________________________ In accordance with the Agreement between the City of Folsom and the Folsom Tourism Bureau dated November 27, 2012, the following Annual Report describes the activities undertaken during the fiscal year July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025.
Organizational Background: The Folsom Tourism Bureau was formed in the year 2000 to focus on the growing local market for tourism development. In 2002 the Tourism Bureau pursued forming a business improvement district (BID) to strategically grow tourism in Folsom while providing a sustainable funding source to market Folsom as a destination. The Tourism Bureau immediately engaged all its hotel partners to seek their input and developed a strategy to accomplish that objective. The Tourism BID (TBID) was formed in 2003 at a rate of 2 percent for an initial 5-year timeframe and then renewed for an additional five years. In 2012, the Tourism BID was renewed at 4% for an additional 20-year term.
In 2016, the Greater Folsom Partnership, now known as Choose Folsom, was formed to leverage the efforts of the Folsom Tourism Bureau in conjunction with the Folsom Chamber of Commerce and Folsom Economic Development brands. This structure facilitates an integrated marketing and communication strategy for Folsom and promotes a strong connection between the business and hospitality communities.
The ultimate goal of Folsom Tourism Bureau programs and services is to promote positive economic benefits for the City of Folsom through increasing occupancy and Average Daily Rate (ADR) in Folsom Hotels. Increased activity increases Transit Occupancy Tax (TOT) and sales tax revenue as well as a residual economic benefit for related market segments in dining, retail, outdoor recreation, and entertainment.
In addition, it has become increasingly apparent that destination promotion is a crucial tool that is used to assist in broader economic development issues – not just marketing to the end
03/02/2026 Item No.1.
1 traveler. Promoting Folsom raises our community profile and opens the door for enhanced opportunities for traditional business relocation, expansion, and new startups to occur. Our destination promotion contributes substantially to highlighting the quality-of-life indicators critical to the relocation decision as well as our residents’ attitudes about where they live.

STUDIES
Hunden Partners completed a county-wide tourism assessment for the Folsom Tourism Bureau (FTB) in June of 2023 and subsequently completed financial feasibility studies related to priority assets and projects as recommended through the tourism master plan process. The market research and asset profiles completed in Hunden’s initial tourism study supported the conclusion that there are several key areas the City of
03/02/2026 Item No.1.
2 Folsom can focus on to bolster the visitor economy and enhance the quality of life for residents.
Next, during the 2023-2024 fiscal year, the FTB engaged the Hunden Partners team to complete five feasibility and impact studies which consisted of outdoor sports, indoor sports, conference/boutique hotel, entertainment, and events. The foundation of the studies includes a market demand, financial feasibility, and economic impact study to determine the optimal build-out, projected performance and impact of these types of tourism-inducing projects for the City of Folsom.
Outcome of the five studies included:
o Outdoor Sports: Determined the opportunity for a regional youth sports complex in Folsom including a breakdown of space needs, operational performance and estimated impacts to the City of Folsom.
o Hotel & Conference Center: Identified the scale and type of hotel needed in the City and provide estimated projections of performance, impacts and likely feasibility gaps which would require public funding.
o Indoor Sports: Analyzed the Folsom Ranch Ice Project to assess its viability, need in the market, performance and potential impacts to the City. o Entertainment: Assessed the local and regional market for the gap in the market for an entertainment venue in the City and project the performance and impact of that venue in Folsom.
o Events Strategy: Provided action items for Visit Folsom as it relates to bolstering existing events and attracting new events.
In FY 2024–2025, the Folsom Tourism Bureau focused heavily on laying the groundwork for future destination asset and infrastructure development. Building on the findings of the five feasibility and impact studies completed in 2023–2024, the Bureau worked to deepen understanding of project opportunities, refine priorities, and engage stakeholders in discussions about long-term tourism needs.
This foundational work will continue to guide the next phase of implementation in FY 2025–2026, when efforts will shift toward advancing select projects, identifying funding strategies, and aligning infrastructure initiatives with event and marketing plans to strengthen Folsom’s position as a premier tourism destination.

PARTNERSHIPS & COLLABORATIONS
• REGIONAL COLLABORATION: Through partnerships with the Gold Country Visitors Association and Visit California, Folsom continues to gain greater visibility as a key stop on regional itineraries while accessing marketing opportunities beyond the scope of our local budget. These collaborations provide valuable benefits such as exposure to international visitor markets, inclusion in regional tours, and representation in the California State Visitor Guide
Our partnership with Rancho Cordova Travel & Tourism is especially valuable, as collaboration enables us to attract and host larger groups than either destination could accommodate on its own.
• HOTEL LEADERSHIP TOURISM UPDATE MEETINGS: We host quarterly meetings with Sales and General Managers from our eight partner properties. These gatherings provide an opportunity to share market trends, address questions about Folsom’s developments, and collaborate on strategic plans to grow tourism revenue. To highlight the destination, we rotate meeting locations among local restaurants and entertainment venues, showcasing what’s new in Folsom. The group also discusses economic development news and potential business relocations, which are of significant interest to our hotel partners.
• ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TEAM: Choose Folsom engages an Economic Development consultant to advance both tourism and economic growth initiatives. Key efforts include representing Folsom on the Greater Sacramento Economic Council (GSEC) Regional Directors Council and hosting the 50EA Tech Council and Commercial Brokers meetings to elevate visibility along the Highway 50 corridor.

Folsom City Council
Staff Report
1 MEETING DATE:
2/24/2026
AGENDA SECTION:
Consent Calendar
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11552 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Folsom Lake Ford for the Purchase of Two Ford Explorer Hybrid Police Vehicles for $114,615 from the Police Vehicle/Equipment Fund (Fund 607)
FROM: Police Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council pass and ado pt Resolution No. 11552 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreemen t with Folsom Lake Ford for the Purchase of Two Ford Explorer Hybrid Police Vehicle s for $114,615 from the Police Vehicle/Equipment Fund (Fund 607 ).
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The City of Folsom is committed to providing our po lice officers with safe, reliable, and mechanically sound marked patrol vehicles capable of responding to emergencies effectively.
In alignment with the Service Delivery Plan adopted by City Council (Resolution No. 8215), marked patrol vehicles are scheduled for replacement at 75,000 miles or four years, whichever comes first, to ensure operational readiness and officer safety.
Currently, the Police Department is operating eight patrol vehicles that have exceeded this mileage threshold. Additionally, the Department on ly has one pool vehicle available when assigned units are out of service for maintenance. High-mileage vehicles require more frequent and costly repairs, which impacts both efficiency and budget.
To address these challenges, staff is proposing to add two new hybrid patrol vehicles to the fleet. This upgrade will allow us to retire two high-mileage, gas-powered vehicles from daily use and repurpose them as additional pool vehicles. Beyond improving reliability and reducing
03/02/2026 Item No.3.
2 maintenance downtime, this transition will generate an estimated annual fuel cost savings of approximately $9,000.
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.080 of the Folsom Municipal Code requires that the City Council award contracts above $77,426.00.
Section 2.36.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code permi ts cooperative purchasing agreements for procuring supplies, equipment, service, or cons truction with one or more public procurement units following an agreement between th e participants. Such cooperative purchasing may include but is not limited to, joint or multiparty contracts between public procurement units and open-ended state public procu rement unit contracts, which are made available to the City.
ANALYSIS
Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) have become an indust ry standard for law enforcement since their introduction in 2013. Ford Explorers have pro ven to be incredibly durable, reliable, and versatile to meet the demands for heavy use typical of a police patrol vehicle. Its design is tailored for law enforcement, including reinforced suspension, upgraded cooling systems, and features specifically engineered for law enforcemen t operations. The hybrid option blends better fuel economy, reduced idle-time operating co sts, capable performance, and practical SUV utility, all in a vehicle that’s engineered and tested for law enforcement duty.
This purchase of two new Ford Explorer hybrid police vehicles will significantly improve fleet reliability and operational readiness. Currently, eight marked patrol vehicles exceed the 75,000-mile threshold established in the Service De livery Plan. Adding these new vehicles will reduce that number to six, reducing the risk o f costly maintenance and downtime associated with high-mileage units. Additionally, two older gas-powered will be removed from everyday patrol use and reassigned as pool vehicles, increasing flexibility when primary units are out of service for repairs.
The investment also delivers measurable financial a nd sustainability benefits. Transitioning two gas-powered vehicles out of daily use and incor porating hybrid technology into the fleet will generate an estimated fuel cost savings of app roximately $9,000. Reduced maintenance on high-mileage vehicles and improved fuel economy will further lower lifecycle costs.
SOLE SOURCE
The last vendor utilized for the purchase of Ford E xplorer patrol vehicles was Folsom Lake Ford. Folsom Lake Ford currently has two Ford Expl orer hybrid police vehicles in stock and ready for immediate delivery. Both vehicles are fu lly equipped to meet the Police Department’s operational standards and specifications.
03/02/2026 Item No.3.
3 The cost for each vehicle is $57,307.33, as quoted under the current State of California contract (1-22-23-14C), ensuring the pricing is highly compe titive with state procurement guidelines.
This availability and compliance with the state con tract pricing make Folsom Lake Ford the most practical and cost-effective source for this purchase.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
If approved the agreement with Folsom Lake Ford for the purchase of two Ford Explorer Hybrid police vehicles would be $114,615. Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in the Police Vehicle/Equipment Fund (Fund 607) to cover the cost of the agreement.

ITEM TITLE: Resolution No. 11553 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with National Auto Fleet Group for $57,517.78 from the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) and $115,035.56 from the Wastewater Operating Fund (Fund 530) for the Purchase of T hree Chevrolet Silverado EV Trucks FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11553 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with National Auto Fleet Group for $57,517.78 From the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) and $115,035.56 from the Wastewater Operating Fund (Fund 530) for the Purchase of Three Chevrolet Silverado EV Trucks.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Utilities Department recognizes the need to mai ntain a fleet of vehicles that will be able to provide reliable, efficient and responsive service. In coordination with the City of Folsom Fleet Division, current department vehicles are reviewed to assess expected service life and associated maintenance costs. This review has identified two v ehicles that have exceeded their expected service life in terms of age, mileage and ongoing maintenance costs, and are thus high priority for replacement. This resolution will authorize the Cit y Manager to execute an agreement for the purchase of Chevrolet Silverado EV Trucks for replacement of these two vehicles.
In addition, in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget, a new staff position and associated vehicle for the Wastewater Collections Division was approved. This resolution will authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement that includes the purchase of a third Chevrolet Silverado EV Truck as approved in the budget for this new position.
POLICY / RULE
03/02/2026 Item No.4.
2 In accordance with Chapter 2.36 of the Folsom Munic ipal Code, supplies, equipment, services, and construction with a value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by City Council. The City will dispose of surplus property in accordance with Section 2.36.220 of the Folsom Municipal Code.
Section 2.36.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code permits cooperative purchasing agreements for the procurement of any supplies, equipment, service, or construction with one or more public procurement units in accordance with an agreement entered into or between the participants.
Beginning January 1, 2024, the Advanced Clean Fleet Regulation requires State and Local Government agencies to purchase at least 50 percent of their annual vehicle purchases per calendar year be zero-emissions for vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 8,500 pounds.
ANALYSIS
Utilities Department staff coordinate with the City of Folsom Fleet Division to review current department vehicles, to help identify priority vehi cles for replacement based on service life, mileage and purpose. Based on this review, it was c oncluded that two high priority vehicles for replacement are the Wastewater Division’s truck #74 9, which was purchased in 2004 and has completed more than 102,000 miles, and the Water Qu ality Division’s truck #1040, which was purchased in 2009 and has completed more than 96,000 miles.
In the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget, a new Wastewater Collection Technician III staff position and associated vehicle was approved. With subsequent internal promotions and retirement of staff, the Wastewater Collections Division has since been oper ating with a vacant position. Consequently, the vehicle approved for the new staff position has not been purchased. As the Division will begin recruitment for a fully staffed division, a new veh icle is required. The Division will purchase the vehicle approved in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget for the new Wastewater Collection Technician III staff position.
In response to State Advanced Clean Fleet Regulatio ns, the Utilities Department has reviewed current department vehicles to identify those that may be replaced by zero emission vehicles (ZEV). It was concluded that Chevrolet Silverado EV Trucks could meet the requirements of all the three requested vehicles. In coordination with Fleet Division staff, quotes have been obtained for the purchase of three Chevrolet Silverado EV Trucks.
Fleet Division staff obtained a quote from Sourcewe ll, previously known as the National Joint Powers Agency, for the required vehicles. Sourcewel l is a national cooperative purchasing entity of which the City of Folsom is a member. The City h as purchased numerous items and vehicles through Sourcewell.
National Auto Fleet Group has a current contract wi th Sourcewell and provided a quote for the requested three trucks for a total of $172,553.34.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11554 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Purchase Agreement with Zoll Medical Corporation to Procure Replacement Pre-hospital
Monitors/Defibrillators and Ancillary Equipment for a Total Not to Exceed Amount of $756,000 from the Fire Vehicle/Equipment Fund (Fund 608)
FROM: Fire Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Fire Department recommends that the City Counci l adopt Resolution No. 11554 authorizing the City Manager to execute a purchase agreement with Zoll Medical Corporation for the procurement of eleven (11) replacement card iac monitors/defibrillators and related accessory equipment in an amount not to exceed $756 ,000 from the Fire Vehicle/Equipment Fund (Fund 608).
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Fire Department currently operates eleven (11) cardiac monitor/defibrillator units that are at or near the end of their expected service life ( approximately 10 years). As these units age, reliability concerns and increasing maintenance cos ts have escalated, creating a risk of equipment downtime and reduced operational readines s. Replacing these monitors will help ensure continued delivery of critical pre-hospital patient care and will improve interoperability and documentation through enhanced integration with the City’s electronic patient care reporting (ePCR) system.
03/02/2026 Item No.5.
2 POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.080, Award of Contracts of the Folsom Municipal Code states, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and co nstruction with an estimated value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by City Council.
Section 2.36.140, Sole Source Procurement of the Fo lsom Municipal Code states p rior to submitting a purchase request, the requesting depar tment shall conduct a survey of available sources to determine whether there is only one (1) source for the required supply, equipment, service or construction item. Upon review and approval by the Purchasing Agent, the Finance Director and City Manager, a contract may be awarde d without competition. The purchasing agent, or his/her designee, shall conduct negotiations, as appropriate, as to price, delivery and terms. The requesting department shall prepare a waiver of bid and submit it to the purchasing agent for filing with the city clerk. (Ord. 723 § 3 (part), 1991).
In accordance with Chapter 2.36.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code, the purchasing agent may enter into cooperative purchasing agreements with o ther public procurement units without following Sections 2.36.080, 2.36.090, and 2.36.100 . These agreements can include joint or multiparty contracts or state contracts extended to the city.
ANALYSIS
Cardiac monitor/defibrillators are critical to EMS operations and support the following functions:
12-lead ECG acquisition and transmission to support early STEMI recognition and hospital notification;
Defibrillation, synchronized cardioversion, and ext ernal pacing for time-sensitive cardiac events;
Physiological monitoring including end-tidal CO2, SpO2, non-invasive blood pressure, invasive blood pressure, real-time CPR feedback, and ventilation support; and Data capture and connectivity with receiving hospit als and ePCR systems to support continuity of care, documentation, and post-incident quality improvement.
Following an evaluation of available options, vendo r demonstrations, and field personnel feedback, staff recommend the Zenix cardiac monitor/defibrillator (EMS/Fire configuration).
Key benefits include improved durability and screen visibility, wireless 12-lead transmission capability with updated algorithms, real-time CPR and ventilation feedback, improved battery performance and reliability in high-call environmen ts; and a software platform that supports future updates and enhanced post-incident analysis.
The Fire Department is a member of National Purchas ing Partners (NPP) and is eligible to purchase these units from Zoll’s NPP cooperative pu rchasing contract, which was

ITEM TITLE: Resolution No. 11557 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with West Yost & Associates, Inc. for $373,870 from the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) for Condition Assessment of the City of Folsom’s Water Treatment Plant and Booster Pump Station Facilities
FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11557 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Exec ute an Agreement with West Yost & Associates, Inc. for $373,870 from the Water Operat ing Fund (Fund 520) for Condition Assessment of the City of Folsom’s Water Treatment Plant and Booster Pump Station Facilities.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Water from the Folsom Reservoir is treated by the C ity’s conventional Water Treatment Plant (WTP) located in Folsom near the junction of East N atoma Street and Randall Drive. The WTP consists of three pre-treatment facilities, two Actiflo trains that can treat 25 million gallons per day (MGD) each and the Basin 5 train, which can treat 2 5 MGD. The total WTP capacity is 75 MGD with a firm capacity of 50 MGD in the event that one of the pretreatment trains is inoperable.
The WTP treats water for the entire City of Folsom (with the exception of the Ashland and American River Canyon systems located north of the American River) and delivers treated water to the system by gravity and via 9 booster pump stations located throughout the water distribution system to serve approximately 82,000 residents through 23,500 potable water connections.
City of Folsom staff has identified a number of assets located at the Water Treatment Plant and at the Booster Pump Station facilities that need to be evaluated as part of this condition assessment as shown below:
03/02/2026 Item No.7.
2 Water Treatment Plant.
o Chlorine feed room and storage tank structural assessment. o Sedimentation Basins 1 through 4 assessment (chain and flights, structural, pumps).

RE: Response to Request for Proposals for the City of Folsom Condition Assessment for the Water Treatment Plant and Booster Pump Station Facilities
Dear Bryson:
Completing a comprehensive condition assessment of the City of Folsom's (City) Water Treatment Plant (WTP) and Booster Pump Station (BPS) facilities is a critical step toward strengthening system reliability, identifying redundancy gaps, preparing for future demands, and establishing a repeatable, risk-based asset management program.
West Yost provides value to the City by combining deep familiarity with Folsom’s facilities and staff with the multidisciplinary expertise required to perform this condition assessment efficiently and accurately. Our team has supported the City through planning, asset management, and the construction and commissioning of major WTP improvements, including direct involvement in Actiflo and filtration system upgrades. This firsthand experience gives us a clear understanding of system configuration, constructability constraints, and operational tradeoffs that directly inform practical, defensible evaluations.
Because we understand how the system operates today, its history, and the workarounds staff rely on, our assessments are more targeted and less disruptive to ongoing operations. This approach reduces unnecessary investigations, limits rework, and provides the City with a stronger foundation for long-term capital planning.
Our approach is aligned with the City’s objectives to:
■ Develop a complete understanding of the WTP , BPS facilities, and their integration with the water distribution system. ■ Establish a repeatable, transparent condition assessment framework that City staff can apply well beyond this project. ■ Apply Level 1 assessments systemwide and use Level 2 evaluations selectively where additional detail improves decision-making.
■ Evaluate and prioritize the condition of all assets identified in the RFP and those confirmed through site evaluations. ■ Develop a defensible, risk-based prioritization of improvements categorized as repairs, replace in kind, or Capital Improvement Projects.
■ Prepare planning-level cost estimates for maintenance, repair, replacement, and capital improvements.
We confirm that our proposal complies with the RFP and Addendum No. 1, including experience thresholds, required scope and deliverables, and the requested project schedule. West Yost also confirms acceptance of the terms and conditions in the City’s sample contract.
We are committed to providing the City with a clear understanding of asset condition and remaining useful life, a prioritized improvement plan, and a methodology that supports safe, reliable, and resilient service over the long term. We value our longstanding partnership with the City of Folsom and welcome the opportunity to continue supporting your infrastructure and operational goals.
Sincerely,
West Yost

4 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 SECTION 1. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Folsom’s Water Treatment Plant (WTP) and
nine Booster Pump Stations (BPS) form the backbone of
a potable water system that must deliver reliable, high- quality water under increasing operational, regulatory, and growth pressures. As outlined in the City’s Request for Proposals (RFP), the City’s objective is to develop a clear and defensible understanding of current asset condition, remaining useful life, and the risk and consequence
of failure. This foundational knowledge will guide the prioritization of repairs, replacements, and capital
improvements across both the WTP and BPS facilities.
Our team’s understanding of the City’s needs is informed by the RFP , Addendum No. 1, and the detailed WTP site visit, as well as by direct involvement in the design, construction, and commissioning of major WTP facilities. This perspective allows us to evaluate current asset condition with a clear understanding of original design intent, field-driven modifications, and how systems are actually operated today.
Together, these sources paint a consistent picture: the City is seeking a repeatable, transparent condition assessment program, one that goes beyond producing a list of deficiencies. The desired outcome is a framework that City staff can apply for years to come to support operational reliability, capital planning, and long-term asset management.
UNDERSTANDING THE CITY’S OBJECTIVES
RELIABLE, HIGH-QUALITY WATER
The City of Folsom’s commitment to delivering reliable, high-quality drinking water is anchored in the Folsom Water Vision, which charts a resilient water future for the next 50 years. This project directly supports that vision by providing a clear, data-driven understanding of asset condition and risk across the WTP and BPS facilities.
The condition assessment framework will help the City:
■ Proactively address vulnerabilities that could affect water quality or system reliability. ■ Confirm treatment and monitoring systems remain robust as assets age or approach capacity.
■ Align capital investments with long-term
Water Vision priorities.
■ Maintain public confidence through transparent, defensible decisions.
This effort translates the Water Vision’s long-term goals into practical steps that safeguard high-quality water service today and into the future.
ESTABLISH A REPEATABLE, RISK-BASED CONDITION ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY The City seeks a condition assessment approach that is standardized, defensible, and aligned with asset-management principles and best practices. This methodology must:
■ Integrate with the City’s Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) platforms, AMS and Lucity, so condition data is efficiently maintained, routinely updated, and readily applied to ongoing decision-making.
Folsom Water Treatment Plant Sedimentation Basin No. 5 is representative of the aging, actively operated infrastructure to be evaluated under this condition assessment.
03/02/2026 Item No.7.
5 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 ■ Provide a practical road map that empowers staff to maintain, refresh, and apply condition information in ways that meaningfully inform operational decisions and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) priorities. This road map also helps the City structure future decision making and CIP budget priorities by integrating criticality into a living, adaptable program, which is provided in this proposal as an optional task. As a dynamic framework, it can be refined over time to strengthen data-driven decision-making.
Wastewater and Drainage Sump Station
Facilities Condition Assessment
CITY OF SACRAMENTO, CA
West Yost performed a comprehensive condition and risk
assessment at five of the City’s wastewater sump stations and five drainage sump stations. The condition assessment included an evaluation of the civil, mechanical, structural, and electrical assets and considered the corrosion
assessment of pipes, structures, and outfall pipes. The risk assessment included an evaluation of the remaining useful life of the existing assets and development of a risk framework, which utilized the City’s existing sewer and stormwater pipeline risk factors.
The results of the analysis identified projects and led to the development of a Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and risk assessment results were used to prioritize the CIP projects. Because the City has over 1 50 lift stations, these 10 condition assessments are serving as a pilot program for City staff to conduct condition assessments on the remaining sump stations.
PROJECT SPOTLIGHT
Wastewater sump station mechanical
equipment inspected as part of the City
of Sacramento facilities condition and risk
assessment pilot program.
IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE SYSTEMWIDE IMPROVEMENTS
The City is requesting a prioritized set of improvement projects, immediate, near-term, and long-term, with clear cost and schedule implications. Rather than simply withstanding scrutiny, this prioritization will help the City proactively develop and plan for budget needs and future ratepayer impacts. Improvements will include both smaller projects that City staff can deliver in-house and larger efforts that will inform future CIP planning. By structuring recommendations across short- term (1–5 years) and long-term (6+ years) horizons, the program provides the data needed to make informed decisions for budgeting and rate-setting. In doing so, the City demonstrates due diligence to its ratepayers and confirms investment decisions are grounded in a robust, repeatable methodology.
STRENGTHEN LONG-TERM RELIABILITY AND OPERATIONAL RESILIENCE Reliability and redundancy are explicit City priorities, especially as:
■ System demands increase south of Highway 50.
■ Critical assets (e.g., filters, electrical systems, chemical systems) operate closer to capacity or end of useful life, and ■ Regulatory expectations related to safety, electrical compliance, and cybersecurity continue to evolve, including requirements established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Division of Drinking Water (DDW) through applicable permits.
A comprehensive, risk-based condition assessment program will help the City proactively manage these pressures, improve system resilience, and maintain high levels of service to the community.

UNDERSTANDING OF PROJECT CHALLENGES
The following key systemwide challenges described in the RFP align closely with those observed during the WTP site visit, reinforcing the need for a systematic, comprehensive condition assessment of critical water infrastructure.
AGING INFRASTRUCTURE WITH VARIABLE REMAINING USEFUL LIFE Many of the City's WTP and BPS assets are more than 20 years old. While many continue to perform well, others are showing signs of age-related wear due to environmental conditions, evolving operational demands, or the timing of past capital investments. The City now requires a systematic, facility-wide evaluation to clearly understand the remaining useful life across asset groups and to identify where future risk may be emerging.
FILTRATION AND PRETREATMENT LIMITATIONS THAT AFFECT
FUTURE CAPACITY
The WTP’s existing filtration system, identified by staff as a top reliability concern, is approaching hydraulic and mechanical constraints. Actuator wear, aging valves, media uncertainty, and limited gallery access all contribute to reduced confidence at higher flow rates. Pretreatment systems (Actiflo and Basin 5) have access, structural, and performance considerations that require detailed evaluation.
Similar filtration system constraints were identified during West Yost's recent condition assessments at the Waterman and North Bay Regional WTPs for the City of Fairfield, where filter loading rate limitations, residuals handling bottlenecks, and aging valves and actuators informed phased capital improvement strategies. West Yost applied our proven condition assessment framework to these projects and will do the same for assessment of the City of Folsom's facilities.
CHEMICAL SYSTEMS WITH SAFETY,
CONTAINMENT, AND COMPLIANCE RISKS
Examples such as UV-related degradation of hypochlorite tanks, aluminum chlorohydrate (ACH) containment concerns, unanchored orthophosphate equipment, and corrosion within the hypochlorite building illustrate the types of vulnerabilities that warrant closer attention. These conditions align directly with the identification needs outlined in the RFP and underscore the value of conducting a comprehensive mechanical, structural, and safety assessment.
ELECTRICAL/SCADA SYSTEMS
APPROACHING OBSOLESCENCE
Across the existing WTP and BPS network, several
critical electrical and control systems are reaching a
point where modernization is essential. A number of the site’s Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and Human
Machine Interfaces (HMIs) are outdated or no longer fully functional, limiting both operational efficiency and the City’s ability to troubleshoot or automate key processes.
Gaps in HVAC coverage further expose electrical equipment to temperature and humidity conditions that can shorten asset life or lead to avoidable failures. In addition, the 69-kV substation warrants a dedicated, comprehensive assessment to confirm it continues to operate safely and reliably under current and future loading conditions. The City also requires Electrical equipment is reaching the end of its useful life, becoming obsolete, and spare parts are difficult to find.

03/02/2026 Item No.7.
7 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 an updated evaluation of arc-flash boundaries as well as NFPA 70B compliance to maintain industry-standard electrical safety practices. Together, these issues have a direct influence on system reliability, emergency response readiness, and the safety of operators who rely on these systems every day.
RESIDUALS HANDLING SYSTEMS THAT REQUIRE MODERNIZATION
The repurposed flocculation and sedimentation (floc/sed) basins, reclaimed backwash basin, screw press facility, and sludge lagoon pumping configuration all exhibit performance and operational limitations. These processes require a clear evaluation of condition, reliability, and opportunities for improvement.
BOOSTER PUMP STATION VARIABILITY AND EXPOSURE ISSUES
The City’s nine BPS facilities range from 1999 to 2019, exhibit varying levels of structural integrity, generator reliability, electrical condition, and exposure to environmental stresses. To develop a clear understanding of current performance and long-term needs, each site requires a comprehensive mechanical, structural, electrical, hydraulic, and environmental assessment. This includes pump performance field testing and system curve development to verify operational capacity and efficiency. Together, these evaluations are essential to establishing consistent, systemwide reliability.
SYSTEMWIDE IMPLICATIONS
The WTP and BPS facilities must function as a
coordinated system capable of meeting peak ultimate
demands, fire flow requirements, and maintaining
minimum pressure across diverse topography. Growth
south of Highway 50, along with aging infrastructure, will place additional strain on the WTP’s filtration capacity, electrical resilience, pumping efficiency, and operational flexibility. The City requires a condition assessment that not only documents today’s condition but also positions the system for future service reliability and sustainable capital planning.
WHY THIS UNDERSTANDING
MATTERS
Our project understanding provides a precise definition of the challenges at hand, aligns directly with the
requirements outlined in the RFP , and establishes a
clear link between the City’s needs and our proposed
approach. By articulating the City’s objectives,
acknowledging real-world operational conditions, and
anticipating how the condition assessment outcomes will inform future decision-making, our approach lays the
groundwork for a program that is both technically sound and immediately useful to City staff.
The Project Approach that follows builds on this
foundation. It explains how our methodology will
deliver a repeatable condition assessment program, a
transparent and defensible prioritization framework, and a strategic basis for enhancing long-term infrastructure reliability and resiliency.
The filter gallery contains critical isolation and control valves and Auma actuators that influence filtration reliability, redundancy, and confidence as flows approach higher rates. The condition assessment will evaluate mechanical condition, operability, access limitations, and hydraulic performance to support defensible decisions regarding rehabilitation, phased replacement, and long-term filtration capacity planning.
The hypochlorite metering pumps are housed in a CMU building exhibiting corrosion, coating deterioration, and cracking. While pump upgrades have improved dosing reliability, the condition of the building, containment, and structural elements reflects chemical exposure and deferred rehabilitation. The condition assessment will evaluate mechanical equipment, corrosion mechanisms, structural integrity, and safety considerations to support improvements to chemical system reliability and operator safety.

8 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 SECTION 2. PROJECT APPROACH
The City owns and operates the Folsom Water Treatment Plant (WTP) and nine booster pump stations (BPS), each with assets of varying ages and operational histories. While routine maintenance, repairs, and modifications are regularly performed, the City does not yet have a formalized, system-wide program for evaluating the life-cycle condition of these assets. Establishing a sustainable condition assessment framework will enable the City to maintain desired service levels, optimize life-cycle costs, and proactively plan for rehabilitation and replacement. This has become a priority as the City seeks to strengthen long-term system reliability and reduce reactive maintenance through strategic, data-driven investment.
Over the last two decades, the WTP has evolved significantly with the addition of major process units (e, g,, Actiflo), rehabilitation of existing facilities, and numerous operator-driven improvements. As a result, many systems now operate differently than originally designed. Several assets are more than 20 years old and have experienced strain, some of which is related to historical operational practices that predate current leadership. This has accelerated wear or reduced their remaining useful life. These realities make a structured, transparent, and defensible condition assessment essential for understanding current asset health, remaining life, and risk and consequence of failure, all of which are critical to capital planning.
This project represents a critical step forward in formalizing the City’s asset management approach and establishing a consistent methodology for making risk-based rehabilitation and replacement decisions.
A visual summary of West Yost's sustainable condition
assessment framework. The graphic illustrates how five
interconnected elements, establishing clear
assessment criteria, leveraging the City’s CMMS,
conducting routine field assessments, defining actionable thresholds, and fully involving operations staff, work
together to create a repeatable, data-driven program for evaluating asset conditions.

OUR APPROACH TO YOUR CONDITION ASSESSMENT PROJECT
Our approach to your Project will evaluate assets across their full life cycle rather than relying on static, one-time observations.
Using assessment criteria that City staff can easily apply in future years, we will establish a framework for consistent, repeatable scoring informed by visual inspections and support by Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, CMMS – AMS and Lucity – plant/facility maintenance records, and Operations & Maintenance (O&M) staff expertise.
The methodology will also incorporate the WTP’s unique operational realities, such as filtration system limitations at higher loading rates, aging or obsolete electrical and instrumentation systems (PLCs/HMIs), chemical containment concerns, and residuals-handling constraints. These factors influence both the likelihood and consequence of failure, and are therefore critical inputs to a comprehensive, long-term asset evaluation.
We use a multi-step approach that engages staff through the entire process. We start with understanding and confirming project goals. This leads to development of a Condition Assessment Plan. This plan lays out the framework for field investigations that form the basis for a prioritized action plan.
03/02/2026 Item No.7.
9 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 West Yost has identified three primary goals for this project:
■ Develop a sustainable, renewable methodology for condition assessments. ■ Integrate technical rigor with practical implementation to generate a prioritized list of repair and replacement projects. ■ Advance the City’s long-term planning for system reliability, performance, and resilience.
GOAL 1 – DEVELOP A SUSTAINABLE, RENEWABLE METHODOLOGY FOR CONDITION ASSESSMENTS A sustainable condition assessment program must provide the City with a clear, defensible, and repeatable framework for evaluating asset health and determining when maintenance, rehabilitation, or replacement is warranted. West Yost’s methodology is built around three core components:
■ Assessment Criteria: Establishing consistent, objective criteria that defines how assets are scored based on physical condition, performance, maintainability, remaining useful life, and compliance considerations. These criteria will be tailored to the WTP and BPS operational environment and designed so City staff can readily apply and update them in future years.
■ Risk Assessment (Criticality × Condition): Incorporating criticality, defined as how essential an asset is to treatment reliability, regulatory compliance, and service continuity, into the scoring process helps the City target investments toward the areas of greatest need. This structured approach clarifies where failures would have the highest operational or community impact and where proactive improvements would deliver the greatest benefit.
■ Action Plan: Translating assessment results into a prioritized set of actions, including immediate repairs, near-term rehabilitation, and long-term capital improvements. The action plan will include planning-level cost estimates, recommended sequencing, and integration with the City’s CIP framework.
GOAL 2 – INTEGRATE TECHNICAL RIGOR WITH PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION Our multidisciplinary team brings deep expertise in mechanical, structural, electrical and instrumentation, and process systems, along with extensive experience at water treatment and pump station facilities. We will collaborate closely with City staff, so findings reflect actual operational practices, current system constraints, and anticipated future needs, including capacity increases drive by growth south of Highway 50. Our recommendations will be actionable, grounded in field-verified conditions, and aligned with the City’s O&M experience and CIP planning.
Operational insights from City staff, such as filtration hydraulic limitations, Actiflo access challenges, sludge lagoon conveyance issues, and the need for a phased modernization roadmap, will be incorporated directly into the assessment. This confirms the evaluation captures both asset condition and operational realities, resulting in a practical, reliable roadmap for improving system performance, redundancy, and long-term resilience.
GOAL 3 – BUILD ON THE CITY’S PROGRESS TOWARD LONG-TERM SYSTEM RELIABILITY AND PERFORMANCE West Yost understands the City’s ongoing investments in infrastructure improvements, plant optimization, and long-range planning, including the development of the Folsom Water Vision which outlines a resilient 50-year strategy for securing and sustaining the City’s water future. Our team will build on this momentum by identifying opportunities to strengthen asset redundancy, extend asset life, and reduce operational and regulatory risk. The resulting assessment will provide a defensible, data-driven foundation that supports Water Vision objectives and enhances long-term planning for continued delivery of safe, reliable, high-quality water service.

WEST YOST'S APPROACH TO CONDUCTING
FIELD INVESTIGATIONS FOR CONDITION
ASSESSMENTS
Field investigations are fundamental to accurately
understanding asset condition. West Yost conducts
these evaluations efficiently and cost-effectively by first developing a clear understanding of each asset’s function, operational constraints, and historical performance. This preparation allows us to plan site access strategically and focus field time on gathering the most meaningful and
actionable information.
Before any field investigations are conducted, a Condition Assessment Plan will be developed in collaboration with City staff to establish the framework, assets to be included, sequencing, and resources required to complete the field investigations efficiently and with minimal disruption to operations. The Condition Assessment Plan will include
a detailed schedule that identifies fieldwork windows
and accounts for facility accessibility. A resource plan will identify key staff from both the City and the assessment team. The Condition Assessment Plan will define the
order of facility assessments based on operational priority, criticality, and logistical efficiency to maximize productivity during site visits. West Yost will prepare a draft assessment form to standardize data collection, inspection criteria, and condition rating inputs across all facilities. This structured approach will promote consistency, transparency, and
repeatability in the evaluation process and support accurate comparison of asset condition across the City’s water
treatment plant and BPS facilities.
PRE-FIELD INVESTIGATION TASKS
Before the field investigations, we will develop a
comprehensive understanding of how each asset
contributes to the overall function and performance of
the water treatment plant and booster pump stations.
An asset inventory list will be compiled of assets to be inspected at each facility to house asset condition data, attributes, and remaining useful life. This involves not only reviewing existing documentation such as record drawings and maintenance histories, but by also conducting
interviews with O&M staff who are most familiar with the WTP and BPS facilities. We have found these discussions are the most productive and hold higher value if they are held on-site rather than in a formal office setting as they encourage deeper insights into operations and provide
more detailed information.

CIP PRIORITIZATION AND CONDITION ASSESSMENT REPORT
Following the field evaluation phase, assets/facilities needing replacement or rehabilitation to extend service life will be determined. We will apply the rating and assessment criteria to prioritize projects based on risk, which is defined as the combination of condition and criticality. If criticality is not defined at an asset-level, general facility criticality will be used to prioritize projects. The risk-based approach is an essential consideration in identifying and prioritizing system improvements.
All facility areas of concern will be addressed within the Condition Assessment Report. A prioritized list of projects, with
03/02/2026 Item No.7.
13 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 estimated costs for implementation, will be recommended for in-house repair, in-kind-replacement, or incorporating into the City’s Capital Improvement Plan based on our findings and collaboration with City staff.
A key part of selecting, categorizing, and ranking the projects will be discussions with the City. A series of well-organized workshops will be held between Engineering and O&M departments to provide a collaborative approach, allowing staff to be engaged in the decision-making process.
The final product of this process will be a Condition Assessment Report with the following:
■ Detailed field evaluation findings
■ Recommended projects placed into one of the following categories:
‒ Immediate (1 to 2 years)
‒ Near-term (2 to 5 years)
‒ And long-term (5 to 10 years)
■ Detailed project descriptions with planning-level cost estimates for immediate (1 to 2 years) and near-term (2 to 5 years) projects.
■ A CIP that is defensible, transparent, and aligned with the City’s operational and financial realities.
For budgeting purposes, the scope of services provides for detailed project descriptions, planning level cost estimates, and schedule for immediate (1 to 2 years) and near-term (2 to 5 years) projects and includes an Optional Task 4.4 for the development of detailed project descriptions and cost estimates for long-term (5 to 10 years) projects.
Optional Task: We understand
not all assets or facilities have been
evaluated for criticality. Therefore,
we have included an optional task to
complete a criticality evaluation of the
process areas of the water treatment
plant and each of the booster pump
stations and their assets. West Yost
will meet with the City to review and
confirm the evaluation criteria and
make any necessary adjustments.
Each facility will then be evaluated for
criticality using the finalized criteria.

West Yost will review the schedule during every check-in meeting to verify milestone completion and identify risks that may influence progress. With real-time tracking tools for monitoring resources and task dependencies, we will implement corrective actions early to avoid delays and maintain full visibility into schedule performance.
DOCUMENTATION AND ACCOUNTABILITY
To support clarity and continuity, West Yost will document project communications and decisions through structured meeting notes, action item logs, and decision logs. These tools provide traceability, strengthen transparency, and reduce rework during field investigations, analysis, and report preparation.
By combining our detailed understanding of the Folsom WTP and BPS facilities, firsthand construction experience at your plant, and our specialized expertise in condition assessment and asset management, West Yost is uniquely positioned to deliver a targeted, implementable assessment that strengthens system reliability.
Our project management approach provides not only a well-structured, repeatable assessment framework, but also a practical roadmap for prioritizing near-term and long-term improvements, supporting informed decision-making, and sustaining the City’s commitment to safe, resilient, and high-quality water service.
This sludge lagoon receives pretreatment
residuals. A floating pump system is used to
transfer sludge to the screw press feed day
tanks due to insufficient hydraulic grade to
convey sludge by gravity as originally intended.
This labor-intensive workaround illustrates
a clear opportunity for optimization. The
condition assessment will evaluate residuals
conveyance, lagoon operations, and dewatering
integration to identify improvements that reduce
operational burden, improve reliability, and
better align solids handling infrastructure with
long-term operational goals.

TASK 4. OTHER SERVICES (OPTIONAL)
OBJECTIVE: PROVIDE OPTIONAL SERVICES THAT ARE VALUE ADDED TO THE ASSESSMENT TASK 4. 1 CRITICALITY ASSESSMENT
Asset criticality if not currently defined at each asset for the WTP and BPS facilities, and therefore, without this optional task, the general criticality is what will be used for the risk assessment. If the City chooses this optional service, West Yost will lead an evaluation of asset criticality for a refined evaluation of asset risk to prioritize repair and replacement. West Yost will meet with the City to confirm the criteria and make any adjustments deemed necessary. The Criticality Assessment will be used in Task 2 to determine the risk rating for each asset to inform asset and facility prioritization.
TASK 4. 1 DELIVERABLE
■ Draft and final TM documenting the criticality assignment as an appendix to the Condition Assessment Report TASK 4.2 PERFORMANCE DATA ANALYSIS
West Yost will review and analyze five years’ (July 2020 through July 2025) of raw and treated water quality data from the WTP as well as additional data provided by the City that represent unusual and more challenging source water quality events. The purpose of the analysis will be to inform 1) an initial evaluation of the existing WTP’s ability to produce regulatory-compliant treated water and to satisfy expectations, and 2) recommendations for optimizing the operation of the WTP by a limited number of staff, particularly during more challenging water quality conditions.
Key raw water quality parameters will include but are not limited to: turbidity (for raw, settled, and filter water); general mineral, total dissolved solids, hardness, alkalinity and pH data; microbiological data (including data for Cryptosporidium, Giardia, total and/or fecal coliforms, and E. coli); total organic carbon (TOC); dissolved organic carbon (DOC); chemical dosage data; and lead and copper monitoring data.
TASK 4.2 ASSUMPTIONS
■ The City will provide five years (2020 through 2025) of raw and treated water quality data for the existing WTP , including all testing conducted during this period, as well as additional relevant data from unusual or more challenging events in earlier periods.

22 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 TASK 4.3 LEVEL 2 FIELD ASSESSMENT
Based on the findings of Tasks 2.2 and 2.3, more invasive Level 2 field assessments may be recommended. Level 2 field assessments will vary in scope depending on the observed condition of each asset during the Level 1 field assessments and the type of assets in question. If a Level 2 field assessment triggers the need for CEQA, we will include that in this proposed optional task.
The cost of each Level 2 field assessment will vary depending on the type of testing required. The actual scope and fee will be mutually agreed upon between West Yost and the City prior to performing any work.
4.3. 1 FILTERS LEVEL 2 FIELD ASSESSMENT
Based on conversations with staff, we are recommending a Level 2 field assessment to be performed to assess the filters.
This task will focus on:
■ Developing a clear understanding of the practical, reliable filtration capacity of the existing filters, particularly as the Water Treatment Plant approaches buildout flows.
■ Performing a Level 2 condition assessment of key components of the existing filter systems The evaluation will be used to inform capital planning decisions related to filter rehabilitation, expansion, and supporting infrastructure improvements.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
West Yost will perform a focused evaluation of filtration system performance using a combination of historical data review, targeted analysis, and limited field testing as appropriate. The task will include the following elements:
1. Historical Performance Data Review
West Yost will review available historical filter performance data, including filter run times, unit filter run volume (UFRV), headloss development, effluent turbidity trends, and backwash frequency. Performance will be evaluated across a range of operating conditions to identify patterns associated with increasing filtration rates and varying source water quality.
2. Correlation to Filtration Rate and Operational Constraints Performance trends will be correlated to approximate filtration loading rates (gpm/SF), seasonal operating conditions, and known operational constraints, including backwash scheduling practices and residuals handling capacity. The analysis will focus on identifying filtration rate thresholds beyond which performance degrades disproportionately, such as significant reductions in run time or increased backwash frequency.
3. Limited Filter Challenge Testing (If Warranted)
If historical data are insufficient to confirm observed or predicted performance limitations, West Yost will support limited, full-scale filter challenge testing on a small number of filters. Challenge testing, if conducted, will be:
‒ Limited to two selected filters, one from each set (1998 generation filters and 2004 generation filters); ‒ Performed at incrementally elevated filtration rates coordinated with Operations staff; ‒ Executed primarily by City staff, with West Yost providing test protocols, monitoring guidance, and data interpretation.
Challenge testing will focus on evaluating filter run time, UFRV, headloss development, and effluent turbidity stability at higher loading rates. Testing will be conducted in a manner that minimizes disruption to plant operations.
03/02/2026 Item No.7.
23 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026
4. Filter Facility Hydraulic “Fatal Flaws” Review
West Yost will perform a cursory review of available filter facility hydraulic profiles, record drawings, and operational information to identify potential hydraulic constraints or “fatal flaws” that may not be limiting filter performance under current conditions but could exacerbate performance issues at higher filtration rates. This review will focus on filter influent and effluent hydraulics, balancing provisions, and control elements. This effort is intended as a screening-level evaluation and will not include development of new hydraulic models.
5. Filter Media, Trough, Concrete, and Underdrain Surveillance (Level 2 Assessment) This task will provide a targeted evaluation of filter media condition, verify the bed depths of anthracite and sand per filter design criteria, filter box concrete, filter troughs, and underdrain configuration to determine whether these components are contributing to observed filtration performance limitations or are reaching end of useful life. The scope is intended to replicate key elements of prior filter surveillance studies conducted at the WTP while remaining appropriately bounded and non-intrusive.
West Yost will perform filter media and underdrain surveillance on a limited number of representative filters, coordinated with City Operations staff. The task will include the following elements:
a) Selection of Representative Filters
In coordination with City staff, West Yost will select two filters for surveillance, representing the two primary filter design “generations” at the facility.
b) Filter Troughs and Concrete Condition Assessment
West Yost will perform a visual and functional assessment of filter troughs and accessible concrete surfaces within the selected filters. This assessment will include:
‒ Visual evaluation of trough alignment, levelness, spacing, and apparent deformation and corrosion; ‒ Identification of conditions that could contribute to uneven backwash distribution, short-circuiting, or localized media disturbance;
‒ Visual assessment of concrete surfaces for cracking, spalling, surface degradation, or other signs of distress that could affect filter performance or long-term durability. ‒ The assessment will be based on field observations, available record drawings, and operational input. This effort is intended to identify performance-relevant condition issues and does not include structural analysis, load rating, or design of concrete repairs.
c) Filter Media Surveillance
‒ West Yost will support filter surveillance activities similar to those performed in prior studies, including:
‒ Measurement of media depths and freeboard;
‒ Visual observation of media condition and stratification; ‒ Collection of media core samples (anthracite and sand) for laboratory analysis.
Media sampling and laboratory testing will be performed by a third-party laboratory contracted directly by the City. West Yost will review and interpret laboratory results, including effective size, uniformity coefficient, and comparison to design criteria and prior test results.
d) Underdrain Configuration and Failure-Mode Assessment West Yost will evaluate the installed underdrain system based on available record documents, as-built drawings, manufacturer information, and known failure modes for the installed technology. This evaluation will assess whether the underdrain design could plausibly contribute to uneven flow distribution, localized clogging, or early turbidity breakthrough. Intrusive inspection of underdrain plenums is not included in this task.
03/02/2026 Item No.7.
24 City of Folsom | Condition Assessment for the WTP and BPS Facilities | January 7, 2026 | REVISED: February 17, 2026 e) Comparison to Prior Surveillance Results
Findings from the current surveillance will be compared to results from prior filter surveillance studies, if available, to identify trends in media loss, changes in media characteristics, or emerging issues that may affect long-term performance.
6. Findings and Documentation
Results from Task 4.3 will be summarized in a technical memorandum or incorporated into the Condition Assessment Report. Findings will be used to inform remaining useful life estimates, rehabilitation planning, and evaluation of whether observed performance limitations are primarily media-related, hydraulic, or operational in nature. Findings will also identify whether filter trough condition or concrete distress may be contributing to localized performance issues or should be considered in future rehabilitation or replacement planning. Findings will be framed in terms of:
‒ Reliable continuous filtration capacity;
‒ Short-term peak or contingency operation;
‒ Implications for filter rehabilitation, expansion, and supporting infrastructure.
SCOPE LIMITATIONS
Tasks 4.3.1 does not include:
■ Development of detailed hydraulic models;
■ Evaluation of concrete and trough condition will be limited to visual and functional observations and will not include structural analysis, material testing, or development of repair details. ■ Intrusive inspection of underdrain plenums;
■ Full-scale rehabilitation design or construction services; ■ Expanded challenge testing beyond the limited scope described above.
Any additional testing or intrusive evaluation beyond this scope would require separate authorization.
TASK 4.3 ASSUMPTIONS
■ For 4.3.1, the City will secure services for sampling and laboratory analysis for filter media on two sets of filters ■ Additional Level 2 field assessments that may be identified during the Level 1 field assessments are not included in this optional scope. The detail of level 2 analysis is currently limited to the filters as described in this task. West Yost will be happy to submit additional proposals for level 2 assessments per the City’s request TASK 4.3 DELIVERABLES
■ For 4.3.1, the Filter Level 2 Field Assessment findings will be produced in a technical memorandum to be included in the Condition Assessment Report
TASK 4.4 LONG-TERM PROJECT COST ESTIMATES AND SCHEDULE
In accordance with Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering (AACE) recommended practices, West Yost will prepare planning-level cost estimates for each asset action identified as Long-Term (5 to 10 years) in Task 2.4 using a Class 5 AACE estimate, which reflects a very early project definition level of roughly 0 to 2 percent.
TASK 4.4 DELIVERABLES

EXPERIENCE
Davis Woodland Water Supply Project (DWWSP), Woodland -Davis Clean Water Agency, CA: Primary staff liaison for a Water Advisory Committee tasked with evaluating the proposed new surface water project and related water rate increases for the city. This was a challenging group of 10 local experts in Water and Policy who were able to reach consensus on moving forward with the water project and establishing new rates. This experience honed Dianna’s skills as a mediator and drew upon her extensive engineering experience to guide the discussions. Dianna was the lead on the Prop 218 process once the rates were developed. Once the City was committed to the project, Dianna served on the technical leadership team that met with the City of Woodland and West Yost monthly to work together and develop the Request for Proposal for a design- build team. Dianna’s involvement included determining water supply requirements for the City to appropriately size the plant. This cutting - edge project involved a $278 million design - build-operate (DBO) program to provide a sustainable, regional conjunctive use solution to the communities of Davis and Woodland and UC Davis. The DWWSP included construction of a new intake on the Sacramento River, over 14 miles of transmission pipelines, a new 30 mgd water treatment plant, and local transmission facilities to effectively distribute the water to the customers. The first program phases included project alternative evaluations, project delivery alternative evaluations, preliminary design, project budgeting, scheduling, grant and State loan funding, procurement document development, and contract negotiations. Phase 2, project delivery, encompassed the final design and construction of the planned facilities using the DBO delivery approach.

2 SCADA Master Plan, City of Davis, CA: City Engineer . The City of Davis SCADA Master Plan scope of work included documenting the SCADA Vision, Goals and Objectives, conducting a Baseline Assessment and Gap Analysis, developing a detailed Project Portfolio and SCADA Systems Standards, and high- level system architecture and network design. The project portfolio included conceptual level cost estimates for upgrades to key facilities for input into the City’s Capital Improvements Plan and budget . The Master Plan process helped the City define SCADA system support roles and responsibilities, in coordination with the City IT department.
H Street Pump Station Watershed Drainage Study, City of Davis, CA : City Engineer. Dianna worked with West Yost in this study to determine if the FEMA floodplain south of Covell Boulevard could be removed through a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) or Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR). West Yost developed an XP -SWMM two-dimensional surface flow model linked to a one-dimensional model of the trunk storm drain system to quickly evaluate the adequacy of the existing pump station to pump the peak flows that reach the pump station. The H Street PS Watershed was subdivided into about 119 sub watersheds for the hydrologic analysis. For the hydraulic analysis, about 140 segments of trunk storm drain were included in the model. The model also included the H Street Pump Station and the downstream channel along the railroad to the Covell Drain. The LiDAR topographic mapping was use d to define the two-dimensional ground surface in XP -SWMM model. The storm drain system was defined with record drawings and through field measurements taken by City and West Yost staff. The model was calibrated with the February 4, 2017, storm event using the flood photographs and the recorded wet well water level and pump operation data at the H Street Pump Station. The 100 -year floodplain was delineated. Five alternatives were developed and evaluated to further reduce the existing flooding and prevent fl ooding of houses during the 100 -year event. Based on the calibrated model results, a LOMR application was submitted and approved by FEMA.
East Area Tank, City of Davis, CA: This project was designed and completed for the City of Davis while Dianna was the Water Division Manager for the City. This project involved working with West Yost as the design engineer for the site civil and pum p station building, and DK Tanks for the 4 -million-gallon concrete tank. Dianna was involved in the design meetings and was part of the decision team for determining site location, type and size of tank, and was also involved through construction.
Climate Action and Adaptation Plan, City of Davis, CA: City Engineer. Dianna was asked by the City Manager to lead the city’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP) as there was only one staff member in Sustainability. The staff member acted as the Project Manager, and Dianna was the Project Director. This ended up being a 3 -year effort and included multiple public meetings, meeting with a Technical Advisory Group from local experts, including several from UC Davis, and working with the project consultant and Natural Resources Commission to ultimately finalize the plan. This entire effort took around 3 years and the CAAP was adopted by the Council in April of 2023.
Well Head Treatment for Hexavalent Chromium, California Water Service, Multiple Districts: As the Project Director for a design build operate company, Dianna worked with the clients to perform well site assessments for locating the well head treatment equipment, facilitated the manufacturing of the treatment systems at a plant in Portland, procu red a drayage company to pick up and deliver the cargo containers that the systems were built in, controlled the delivery of the units at the site, and worked with the company’s operation staff to install the resin, complete the interior plumping, and do systems startup.
ADDITIONAL GENERAL EXPERIENCE
