Engineering Design/ Services During Construction
• Interpretive Signage -. Signage was installed June 2025 • ESDC: HDR continued review of submittals and RFIs on GMP 3; development of design change notices; onsite and remote support by Resident Engineer. HDR continuing the preparation of electronic Operations and Maintenance Manuals
Permitting:

Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD)

A/C 30448 (Liquid Processes)

Because the A/C renewal request has been submitted, the City can continue construction/operation under the conditions of the existing permit until a new A/C permit is issued.

A/C 30449 (Generators)

Because construction is complete and source test data submitted, the City does not need to renew the A/C. The Source Test data was approved 10/26/23. The next step is to issue the Permit to Operate (P/O). In the interim, the City can operate the generators under the conditions of the A/C permit.

Public Outreach
• PM/CM and the CWP Public Outreach Lead coordinated on regular project updates to the website, newsletter, social media, etc.

Construction
GMP1
 Project is closed out and accepted on. April 23, 2025.

GMP-2
 Project is closed out and accepted.

GMP-3
 The contracted completion date for GMP3 has been adjusted to May 22, 2025, to account for additional time to incorporate additional scope added for the back-up fuel system.

However, the City was informed by the contractor that the procurement of the electrical panels required for programming the SCADA have been impacted by the supply change issues because of the Covid pandemic, leak testing of the basins took longer than originally planned, the chemical piping system needs to be replaced to account for thermo- expansion and contraction, and the air aeration piping in the BNR area failed its initial pressure t est and required to be reworked.. The project end date is now projected to be April 2026. The Contractor and the City are working together to minimize the potential delays and reduce this potential completion date extension.
 Commissioning meetings were held to continue discussing start-up activities.  Yard piping is complete except for final connection of the force mains to the Headworks schedule for J uly /August 2025.
 Continued to install Electrical (conduit and wiring) and Mechanical Equipment (piping with structural supports) in Areas 70 (Chemicals), and 55 (BNR.).
