Re: Proposal to Provide Additional Services for Master Plan of Storm Drain Update (SQ-87-DE-19-33) for Recharge and Recycled Water Master Plan Components
Dear Ms. Kim:
David Evans and Associates, Inc (DEA) is pleased to submit our proposal for the additional services for the Fontana Storm Drain Master Plan Update. Based on our initial conversation on the master plan on June 23, 2022, and subsequent email on June 23,2022, we have prepared this additional scope and fee to add to our proposal that was submitted on June 9, 2022. The additional service includes evaluating areas in the City for inclusion of both groundwater recharge and recycled water master planning to the scope of work. To complete this work, we will add two people to our organizational chart whose specialty is Water, Sewer and Recycled Water. A summary of their qualifications is included below:
Name Position Years of
Experience
List of Representative Projects
Safa Kamangar, PE, ENV SP Senior Director 25 City of Corona – Recycled Water System New Customer Feasibility Study
City of Corona – Hidden Valley Golf Course
Recycled Water Connection Study
Coachella Valley Water District – Non-Potable
Water System Extension
Kathleen Hong, PE Project Engineer 8 Irvine Ranch Water District – Tustin Legacy Subarea Recycled Water Master Plan
Coachella Valley Water District – Non-Potable
Water System Extension
City of Signal Hills – Recycled Water Pipeline
and Pump Station
We are excited to work with the City to bring a robust living master plan and CIP to the City. The document will serve as an initial document for future projects that seek grant funding. We pride ourselves with consistently delivering solutions that are practical, applicable, fundable, and cost-effective.
As project manager, I am pleased to present this proposal and our team of experts that will continue to work closely with you to exceed your expectations.
Sincerely,
David Evans and Associates, Inc.

Master Plan of Storm Drain Update
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 4.7 Recycled Water Concept Master Plan (Optional) Approach
The Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA) is a water wholesaler and delivers recycled water for non-potable uses, such as industrial uses and irrigation. The City of Fontana has the rights to receive a percentage of recycled water IEUA generates on an annual basis. The main transmission line to deliver recycled water to the communities within the City of Fontana was recently extended to include additional service areas.
Scope: DEA will prepare a tabletop recycled water customer study for the recycled water system. Work will include the review of the existing recycled water system and its components, identifying possible users for the recycled water system and establishing a list of the required infrastructure to provide recycled water to the new customers.
Scope of work will include the review of the City’s latest GIS to identify any parks, golf courses, schools, industrial users, and Caltrans irrigation areas that may be a potential recycled water customer. DEA will also identify the existing recycled water transmission/distribution system throughout the City and in proximity of the potential users. We will then estimate the recycled water needs based on the size and type of each facility and will identify infrastructure needed to deliver recycled water to these locations. Final pipe sizing verification, as well as available flow/pressure at these locations can be provided via hydraulic modeling (not a part of this study).
Work will be based on the review of City’s existing data from the GIS and facility maps provided by the City and does not include hydraulic analyses for pipe sizing or pumping station design.
Task 4.8 Groundwater Recharge Concept Master Plan (Optional) Approach
To augment the master plan, the groundwater recharge concept master plan will provide a high-level review of groundwater resources in the area and a desktop survey of the open public spaces that could support the dual use recharge basins. The project will include data gathering at IEUA, Department of Water Resources, and USGS.
Scope: DEA will prepare a tabletop groundwater recharge opportunities evaluation for capture of stormwater into dual use public systems. Work will include the using GIS to determine the locations of groundwater basins underlaying the City and discuss the water rights associated with each of the groundwater basins. The data for the groundwater basins will be summarized based on recharge a the local, state, and federal level.
Scope of work will include the review of the City’s latest GIS land use to identify any parks, golf courses, or schools, that may offer the dual use for recharge. An important component of the study will be understanding the existing soils at the sites as soil type is an important component for determining recharge feasibility. Note that this scope includes using existing soils data for the evaluation and does not include any Geotechnical investigations. DEA will also identify the existing storm drain based on other tasks in the overall master plan and will evaluate it for proximity to the potential recharge areas. Several graphics and GIS files will be provided to the City as part of the master plan. We will also provide a special chapter in the overall master plan to document the evaluation.
Work will be based on the review of existing data from the GIS and facility maps provided by the City and does not include geotechnical engineering, hydraulics, or groundwater modeling.
