Livingston City Council
February 26, 2025

City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors.
(g) Enforcement of Contract Provisions (non-estoppel). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
(h) Requirements Not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Contractor maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Contractor. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City.
(i) Notice of Cancellation. Contractor agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to City with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation ( except for nonpayment for which a ten ( 10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage.

G) Additional Insured Status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that City and its officers, officials, employees, and agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies.
(k) Prohibition of Undisclosed Coverage Limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. (1) Separation of Insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that Contractor's insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer's limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions. (m) Pass Through Clause. Contractor agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. (n) Agency's Right to Revise Specifications. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change -14-
01424.0001/923138.1

results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the City and Contractor may renegotiate Contractor's compensation.
( o) Self-Insured Retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by City.
(p) Timely Notice of Claims. Contractor shall give City prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Contractor's performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.
( q) Additional Insurance. Contractor shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the work.
( r) Endorsements.

5.3 Indemnification.

Contractor shall indemnify, defend with legal counsel approved by City, and hold harmless City, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers ( each, an "Indemnitee") from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Contractor's negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement, except such loss or damage which is caused by the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of the City. Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel from representing both City and Contractor, or should City otherwise find Contractor's legal counsel unacceptable, then Contractor shall reimburse the City its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable legal counsels fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation. The Contractor shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against the City (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier of fact to have been the result of the Contractor's negligent, reckless or wrongful performance. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.

Contractor obligations under this section apply regardless of whether or not such claim, charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment, civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee. However, without affecting the rights of City under any provision of this Agreement, Contractor shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless City for liability attributable to the active negligence of City, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between the parties or by the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where City is shown to have been actively negligent and where City's active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability -15-
01424.0001/923138.I

involved, the obligation of Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of City.

5.4 Notification of Third-Party Claims.

City shall timely notify Contractor of the receipt of any third-party claim relating to the work under this Agreement. City shall be entitled to recover from Contractor its reasonable costs incurred in providing such notification.

5.5 Performance, Labor, and Warranty Bonds.

Concurrently with execution of this Agreement, Contractor shall deliver to the City the following bonds:
(a) A performance bond securing the faithful performance of this Agreement, in an amount not less than 100% of the total compensation for this Agreement, as stated in Section 2.1.
(b) A labor and materials bond, securing the payment of all persons furnishing labor and/or materials in connection with the work under this Agreement, in an amount not less than 100% of the total compensation for this Agreement, as stated in Section 2.1. (c) A warranty bond, guaranteeing the Contractor's warranty under Section 1.9 of this Agreement, in an amount not less than 20% of the total compensation for this Agreement, as stated in Section 2.1.

All bonds shall be on a form approved by the City Clerk. The bonds shall each contain the original notarized signature of an authorized officer of the surety and affixed thereto shall be a certified and current copy of his/her power of attorney. The bonds shall be unconditional and remain in force during the entire term of the Agreement.

5.6 Sufficiency of Insurer or Surety.

Insurance and bonds required by this Agreement shall be satisfactory only if issued by companies qualified to do business in California, rated "A" or better in the most recent edition of Best's Rating Guide, The Key Rating Guide or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VII or better. If the City determines that the work to be performed under this Agreement creates an increased or decreased risk of loss to the City, the Contractor agrees that the minimum limits of the insurance policies and the bonds required in Section 5.5 may be changed accordingly upon receipt of written notice from the City.

Contractor may retain copies of such documents for its own use. Contractor shall have an unrestricted right to use the concepts embodied therein. All subcontractors shall provide for assignment to City of any documents or materials prepared by them, and in the event Contractor fails to secure such assignment, Contractor shall indemnify City for all damages resulting therefrom.

7.3 Dispute Resolution Process.

Section 20104 et seq. of the California Public Contract Code prescribes a process utilizing informal conferences, non-binding judicial-supervised mediation, and judicial arbitration to resolve disputes on construction claims of $375,000 or less.

The intent of this Section is to implement Sections 20104 et seq. and Section 9204 of the California Public Contract Code. This Section shall be construed to be consistent with said statutes.

For purposes of these procedures, "claim" means a separate demand by the Contractor, after the City has denied Contractor's timely and duly made request for payment for extra work and/or a time extension, for (A) a time extension, (B) payment of money or damages arising from work done by or on behalf of the Contractor pursuant to the Agreement and payment of which is not otherwise expressly provided for or the Contractor is not otherwise entitled to, or (C) an amount the payment of which is disputed by the City.

The following requirements apply to all claims to which this section applies:
(a) Claim Submittal. The claim shall be in writing and include the documents necessary to substantiate the claim. Claims governed by this procedure must be filed on or before the date of final payment. Nothing in this section is intended to extend the time limit or supersede notice requirements otherwise provided in the Agreement for the filing of claims, including all requirements pertaining to compensation or payment for extra work, disputed work, and/or changed conditions. Failure to follow such contractual requirements shall bar any claims or subsequent lawsuits for compensation or payment thereon. (b)
following format:

Supporting Documentation. The Contractor shall submit all claims in the (i) Summary of the claim, including references to the specific Contract Document provisions upon which the claim is based.
(ii) List of documents relating to claim: (a) Specifications, (b) Drawings, ( c) Clarifications (Requests for Information), ( d) Schedules, and ( e) Other. (iii) Chronology of events and correspondence related to the claim. (iv) Statement of grounds for the claim.
(v) Analysis of the claim's cost, if any.
(vi) Analysis of the claim's time/schedule impact, if any. ( c) City's Response. Upon receipt of a claim pursuant to this section, City shall conduct a reasonable review of the claim and, within a period not to exceed 45 days, shall provide the Contractor a written statement identifying what portion of the claim is disputed and what portion is undisputed. Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim will be processed and made within 60 days after the City issues its written statement. -19-
01424.0001/923138.I

(i) If the City needs approval from the City Council to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion of the claim, and the City Council does not meet within the 45 days or within the mutually agreed to extension of time following receipt of a claim sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the City shall have up to three days following the next duly publicly noticed meeting of the City Council after the 45-day period, or extension, expires to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion. (ii) Within 30 days of receipt of a claim, the City may request in writing additional documentation supporting the claim or relating to defenses or claims the City may have against the Contractor. If additional information is thereafter required, it shall be requested and provided pursuant to this subdivision, upon mutual agreement of City and the Contractor. (iii) The City's written response to the claim, as further documented, shall be submitted to the Contractor within 30 days (if the claim is less than $50,000, within 15 days) after receipt of the further documentation, or within a period of time no greater than that taken by the Contractor in producing the additional information or requested documentation, whichever is greater.
(d) Meet and Confer. If the Contractor disputes the City's written response, or the City fails to respond within the time prescribed, the Contractor may so notify the City, in writing, either within 15 days of receipt of the City's response or within 15 days of the City's failure to respond within the time prescribed, respectively, and demand an informal conference to meet and confer for settlement of the issues in dispute. Upon receipt of a demand, the City shall schedule a meet and confer conference within 30 days for settlement of the dispute. ( e) Mediation. Within 10 business days following the conclusion of the meet and confer conference, if the claim or any portion of the claim remains in dispute, the City shall provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the portion of the claim that remains in dispute and the portion that is undisputed. Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after the City issues its written statement. Any disputed portion of the claim, as identified by the contractor in writing, shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation, with the City and the Contractor sharing the associated costs equally. The City and Contractor shall mutually agree to a mediator within 10 business days after the disputed portion of the claim has been identified in writing, unless the parties agree to select a mediator at a later time. (i) If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator. (ii) For purposes of this section, mediation includes any nonbinding process, including, but not limited to, neutral evaluation or a dispute review board, in which an independent third party or board assists the parties in dispute resolution through negotiation or by issuance of an evaluation. Any mediation utilized shall conform to the timeframes in this section. -20-
01424.000 l/923138. l

(iii) Unless otherwise agreed to by the City and the contractor in writing, the mediation conducted pursuant to this section shall excuse any further obligation under Public Contract Code Section 20104.4 to mediate after litigation has been commenced. (iv) All unresolved claims shall be considered jointly m a single mediation, unless a new unrelated claim arises after mediation is completed. (f) City's Responses. The City's failure to respond to a claim from the Contractor within the time periods described in this section or to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section shall result in the claim being deemed rejected in its entirety. A claim that is denied by reason of the City's failure to have responded to a claim, or its failure to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section, shall not constitute and adverse finding with regard to the merits of the claim or the responsibility of qualifications of the Contractor. City's failure to respond shall not waive City's rights to any subsequent procedures for the resolution of disputed claims.
(g) Government Code Claims. If following the mediation, the claim or any portion remains in dispute, the Contractor must comply with the claim procedures set forth in Government Code Section 900 et seq. prior to filing any lawsuit against the City. Such Government Code claims and any subsequent lawsuit based upon the Government Code claims shall be limited to those matters that remain unresolved after all procedures pertaining to extra work, disputed work, construction claims, and/or changed conditions, including any required mediation, have been followed by Contractor. If no such Government Code claim is submitted, or if the prerequisite contractual requirements are not satisfied, no action against the City may be filed. A Government Code claim must be filed no earlier than the date that Contractor completes all contractual prerequisites to filing a Government Code claim, including any required mediation.

A Government Code claim shall be inclusive of all unresolved claims unless a new unrelated claim arises after the Government Code claim is submitted. For purposes of Government Code Section 900 et seq., the running of the period of time within which a claim must be filed shall be tolled from the time the Contractor submits his or her written claim to the City until the time the claim is denied, including any period of time utilized by the meet and confer conference or mediation that does not result in a complete resolutions of all claims. (h) Civil Actions for Claims of $375,000.00 or Less. The following procedures are established for all civil actions filed to resolve claims totaling $375,000.00 or less:
(i) Within 60 days, but no earlier than 30 days, following the filing or responsive pleadings, the court shall submit the matter to non-binding mediation unless waived by mutual stipulation of both parties or unless mediation was held prior to commencement of the action in accordance with Public Contract Code section 9204 and the procedures in this Section.

The mediation process shall provide for the selection within 15 days by both parties of a disinterested third person as mediator, shall be commenced within 30 days of the submittal, and shall be concluded within 15 days from the commencement of the mediation unless a time requirement is extended upon a good cause showing to the court or by stipulation of both parties.

If the parties fail to select a mediator within the 15-day period, either party may petition the court to appoint the mediator.
-21-
01424.0001/923138. l

(ii) If the matter remains in dispute, the case shall be submitted to judicial arbitration pursuant to Chapter 2.5 ( commencing with Section 1141.10) of Title 3 of Part 3 of the Code of Civil Procedure, notwithstanding Section 1141.11 of that code.

FOR CONSTRUCTION OF
WELL NO. 18 TEST WELL

BID 1 of 13

Bids are to be submitted for the entire work. The amount of the bid for comparison purposes will be the total of all items.

The bidder shall set forth for each unit basis item of work a unit price and a total for the item, and for each lump sum item a total for the item, all in clearly legible figures in the respective spaces provided for that purpose. In the case of unit basis items. the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column shall be the product of the unit price bid and the estimated quantity for the item.

In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price shall prevail, except as provided in (a) or (b). as follows:
(a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otheiwise unclear, or is omitted, or is the same as the amount of the entry in the item total column, then the amount set forth in the item total column for the item shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price;
(b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor of ten. one hundred, etc., or one-tenth, or one-hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be resolved by using the entered unit price or item total, whichever most closely approximates percentage-wise the unit price or item total in the CITY of LIVINGSTONs Final Estimate of cost.

If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular. Likewise) if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear) readable total bid is provided.

Symbols such as commas and dollar signs will be ignored and have no mathematical significance in establishing any unit price or item total or lump sums. Written unit prices, item totals and lump sums will be interpreted according to the number of digits and, if applicable, decimal placement. Cents symbols also have no significance in establishing any unit price or item total since all figures are assumed to be expressed in dollars and/or decimal fractions of~ dollar. Bids on lump sum items shall be item totals only; if any unit price for a lump sum item is included in a bid and it differs from the item total, the items total shall prevail.

The foregoing provisions for the resolution of specific irregularities cannot be so comprehensive as to cover every omission, inconsistency, error or other irregularity which may occur in a bid. Any situation not specifically provided for will be determined in the discretion of the CITY of LIVINGSTON, and that discretion will be exercised in the manner deemed by the CITY of LIVINGSTON to best protect the public interest in the prompt and economical completion of the work. The decision of the CITY of LIVINGSTON respecting the amount of a bid, or the existence or treatment of an irregularity in a bid, shall be final.

If this proposal shall be accepted and the unde~igned shall fail to enter into the contract and furnish the 2 bonds in the sums required by the State Contract Act, with surety satisfactory to the CITY of LIVINGSTON, within 8 days, not including Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, after the bidder has received notice from the CITY of LIVINGSTON that the contract has been awarded, the CITY of LIVINGSTON may, at its option, determine that the bidder has abandoned the contract, and thereupon this proposal and the acceptance thereof shall be null and void and the forfeiture of the security accompanying this proposal shall operate and the same shall be the property of the CITY of LIVINGSTON.

The undersigned, as bidder, declares that the only persons or parties interested in this proposal as principals are those named herein; that this proposal is made without collusion with any other person, firm. or corporation; that he has carefully examined the location of the proposed work, the annexed proposed form of contract, and the plans therein referred to; and he proposes, and agrees if this proposal 640.33

STAFF REPORT
Resolution (1) Authorizing the Finance Director/Assistant City Manager to Execute a Change Order from the Original Purchase Order for Shannon Pump Company to Install New Well Shaft and Necessary Components to Well 17 in an Amount not to Exceed $39,302.40, and (2) Authorizing the Finance Department to Make a Supplemental Appropriation to Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Budget in the Amount of $39,302.40 to the Water Enterprise Fund February 26, 2025
Anthony Chavarria, Public Works Director
Happy Bains, Finance Director/Assistant City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Livingston (1) Authorizing the Finance Director/Assistant City Manager to execute a change order from the original purchase order for Shannon Pump Company to install new stainless-steel shaft and necessary components to Well 17 in an amount not to exceed $39,302.40, and (2) authorizing the Finance Department to make a supplemental appropriation to fiscal year 2024/2025 budget in the amount of $39,302.40 to the Water Enterprise Fund.

BACKGROUND:

At the City Council meeting held on February 4, 2025, the council approved initial proactive repairs for Well 17. Subsequently, Shannon Pump Company was contracted to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the well's components. During this detailed examination, it was discovered that the existing shaft and bearings are in poor condition and should be replaced.

DISCUSSION:

In the initial staff report presented to the City Council on February 4, 2025, approval was granted for the initial repairs of Well 17, with expenditures allocated from the approved Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Water Enterprise fund budget. The amount designated for these repairs was not to exceed $102,591.94. At that time, it was noted that the well had not yet been pulled for a comprehensive inspection, which left some uncertainty regarding potential additional costs.

In anticipation of unforeseen issues, staff proactively included the potential costs of replacing the well bowls within the budget, though these components would not be replaced unless deemed necessary.

Following the detailed inspection conducted by Shannon Pump Company after the well was pulled, it became evident that the shaft and bearings were in poor condition and should be replaced. As a result, a change order amounting to $39,302.40 has been proposed to cover the costs associated with replacing the affected shaft and bearings.

Well 17 repairs are expected to take approximately 2--4 weeks, and the shaft replacement should not impact the timeline for repairs.

Replacement of the shaft and bearings will improve well efficiency and longevity.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff is requesting that the Finance Department be authorized to make a supplemental appropriation to Fiscal Year 2024/2025 budget in the amount of $39,302.40 to the Water Enterprise Fund (2100-810- 4392).

STAFF REPORT
Consideration of Resolution Authorizing the Finance Director/Assistant City Manager to Execute an Agreement with HR Green, Inc. to Perform Engineering Services to Include Water Modelling, Development of a Water CIP, and Other Water Related Engineering Services as Needed February 26, 2025
Jose Moran, Mayor
Happy Bains, Finance Director/Assistant City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt the resolution authorizing the Finance Director/Assistant City Manager to Execute an Agreement with HR Green, Inc. to perform Engineering Services including water modeling, development of a water CIP, and other water-related engineering services as needed.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Livingston provides potable water service to a population of approximately 15,448 residents including commercial, industrial, and public facilities within its service area boundary. The City of Livingston serves as the governing agency and sole purveyor of water within the City limits and provides water services to 2,770 metered connections based on the 202 Urban Water Management Plan.

Currently, the City utilizes eight active wells including Well Nos. 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, and 17 which extract groundwater from the Merced Subbasin, while Well NO. 15 serves as a standby well source.

The City's wells have individual capacities ranging from 800 gallons per minute (gpm) to 2,000 gpm.

Collectively, the wells have a combined capacity of 10,900 gpm with water being distributed by a network of lines ranging in size from two to 16 inches in diameter. Additionally, the water system includes a 1.0MG welded steel storage tank used for water storage.

The groundwater underlying the City is part of the larger San Joaquin Valley Groundwater Basin within the San Joaquin River Hydrologic Region. By way of background, the San Joaquin Valley Groundwater Basin is divided into nine subbasins, with the City extracting from the Merced subbasin, which is classified as a critical overdraft subbasin.

Following the passages of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) by California Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. in 2014, the County of Merced and water districts and cities within the Merced Subbasin formed three Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSA) in accordance with SGMA of which the City of Livingston is part of the Merced Irrigation-Urban Groundwater Sustainability Agency (MIUGSA). The member agencies of this GSA include the Merced Irrigation District, City of Merced, City of Atwater, City of Livingston, Le Grand Community Services District, Planada Community

Services District, and Winton Water Sanitary District. The City and the MIUGSA are working collaboratively to achieve sustainable groundwater conditions by 2040 in accordance with SGMA.

As defined by SGMA, 11 a basin is subject to critical overdraft when continuation of present water management practices would probably result in significant adverse overdraft related environmental, social, or economic impacts." The Merced Subbasin is currently considered to be in a state of critical overdraft per the DWR Bulletin 118 Interim 2016 Update.

Over the last year, and due to decades of lack of planning and preparation for replacement of infrastructure, the City has experienced an increase in the number of failures in water infrastructure.

While the City Council adopted its first CIP in several years during the FY 23/24 Budget process, the lack of planning has resulted in delayed replacement of the City's infrastructure. This has resulted in offline wells, a reduction in system pressure, and challenges with meeting daily demand for water use.

This has also resulted in staff being reactionary and responding to emergencies, versus planning for system upgrades and improvements.

Staff has identified numerous challenges and during peak daily demand situations, the system is strained and struggles to meet water demand. In the instance of mechanical failures, the system struggles even more to keep up with demand. Water operations staff is well aware of these challenges.

The Interim City Manager presented this item to the City Council on April 16th, 2024 where the motion failed by a vote of 2-2.

TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
In October 2023, the City Manager authorized the preparation of a Technical Memorandum to provide an assessment of the capacity of the City of Livingston's municipal water supply with the purpose of determining if the City's water supply wells have adequate capacity to meet the City's maximum day demand (MOD) and peak hour demand (PHO) under current and future water supply conditions.

Based on the report, and for reliability purposes, it is desirable to maintain a firm source capacity higher than the MOD. System demand in excess of MOD required for PHO or for fire flows can come from storage. The firm source capacity of the water system is virtually the same as the MOD ( 7,200-gpm ~ 7,222-gpm). The system's capacity is not adequate to meet PHO (9,200-gpm<10,883-gpm).

Additionally, based on the calculations provided in the Technical Memorandum, the City's water system would not have adequate capacity to meet the increased MOD from new developments and would not have adequate capacity to meet the projected PHO based on the firm capacity.

FUTURE SUPPLY CONDITIONS
The City is planning to construct two new wells, one of which (Well 19) will have well head TCP treatment, and two new centralized treatment facilities to remove TCP from the groundwater. The Centralized Facilities will also include water storage tanks and Booster Pumps. The following is a brief description of each facility:

1. Arakelian Park Centralized Treatment Facility
a. This facility will receive water from Well Nos. 12, 13 and 17 and treat it using GAC adsorption for the removal of TCP. Treated water will be discharged into a 1-million-gallon (MG) storage tank.

b. A 6,000-gpm booster pump station will repressurize the treated water into the distribution system.

2. Well 8 Centralized Treatment Facility
c. This facility will receive water from the new Well No. 8A (Well 8 replacement) and from future Well No. 18. The production of these wells is still unknown. For purposes of this report, it is assumed that Well No. 18 will produce 1,500-gpm. Treated water will be discharged into a 1.5 MG storage tank. A 4,500-gpm booster pump station will repressurize the treated water into the distribution system.

3. Well 19 with Treatment Facility
d. This facility will consist of the new Well 19 with well head treatment for the removal of TCP.

A booster pump station will repressurize the treated water into the distribution system.

The City's total production capacity would be 11,300-gpm and the firm production capacity would be 9,300-gpm or 13.39 MGD. Therefore, the City would have adequate capacity to supply MDD to the new developments. With the new improvements, the City's PHD capacity would increase to 16,300-gpm which would also be adequate to supply the new developments.

Once the new TCP improvements are completed and based on the projected firm capacity of 9,300- gpm and 7,455-gpm MDD, the City would have approximately 25 percent remaining capacity for any future new developments beyond the presently entitled multifamily and commercial projects. The City would need to add more new wells and/or treated surface water to accommodate growth beyond that.

Existing System
There is currently no mechanism in place that allows City staff to determine available water capacity, and the respective water impacts based on various development projects. This type of information is critical and will allow staff to determine the impacts of various projects on the overall impacts to the City's supply of water.

With this information, staff would be able to make sound, rational, and data driven recommendations to the Mayor and City Council. In addition, the development community has requested this type of information to understand their respective impacts to the overall water system. This will also help in future planning.

HR Green Proposal
The HR Green proposal will accomplish the following:

Re: Proposal for Water Sufficiency Assessment
HR Green Project Number 2402089
Dear Mr. Bains,

Corona, CA 92879
Main 855.900.4742 Fax 713.965.0044
Per your Request for a scope and fee proposal for the subject project, HR Green, Inc. (HR Green) is ready to provide the necessary services to perform the Water Sufficiency Assessment.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Livingston (City) water system serves approximately 15,000 residents. It is served by three well fields (eight wells with one in production), a water treatment plant, a 1.0MGD water storage tower and 36 miles of watermains. The City's water is available through groundwater aquifers. Due to the recently proposed increase in housing and a state conducted water availability study, the City seeks to evaluate the current system capacity to determine future City growth plans. The City also requests to develop a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to implement into the budget.

HR Green undJrstands that the Scope of Services will be phased in two separ~te tasks:

Task 1: Assess the capacity of the current water system by updating the existing water model, completed in 2007
Task 2: Assess the water system (3 well fields, 1 WTP, 1 Tower) and create a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).

PROPOSED SCOPE OF SERVICES
A. Assess the capacity of the current water system by updating the existing water model (Task 1) a. ReviE;tw existing GIS mapping and atlases of water system. I Based on discussions, HR Green has assumed that the City has the existing water atlases in GIS format
Review the City's 2007 Water Distribution System Water System Plan Review system improvements and studies completed since the 2007 Water Distribution System Master Plan was completed. It is assumed this information will be gathered and summarized by the City and provided to HR Green
Review studies for specific future property developments. Review the latest Comprehensive Plan land-use and population projections Meet with the City to discuss proposed development and areas of concern in existing water system b. Hydraulic Analysis
HR Green will create and calibrate a complete water distribution system model using WaterGEMS from the GIS database and elevations provided by the City.

PACIFIC ► Happy Bains Page 2 of 4 February 21 2025 ► HR Green will use the total system average and peak day demand data and also a record of the top 1 0 highest demands, with respective flows during the peak day, as available. Using this information, HR Green will input the highest users in the model at the point of use (as provided by the City). The remaining system demands for residential and commercial customers will be distributed evenly throughout the City. ► HR Green will work together with the City's staff to identify locations for additional fire hydrant flow and pressure testing as required to calibrate the water model. The City will gather additional hydrant flow and pressure test data at the sites identified and provide to HR Green. ► Using the existing and any additional hydrant flow test data, HR Green will calibrate the water distribution system model. HR Green will input the hydrant flows and pressures and pumping flows and pressures into the computer model and adjust the model parameters so that the model is calibrated to match the measured conditions as closely as feasible. It is assumed that the City will forward the hydrant flow testing data to HR Green. ► Using the City's population projections and land use information from the latest Comprehensive Plan, develop a population and corresponding water demand projection for the next 5- and 20-year planning periods. Include projected average day, peak day and peak hour demands. ► Using the calibrated water distribution system model, land use, and projected water demands accounting for future projected expansion/ growth objectives, develop a water distribution system model for 5 and 20 years in the future. ► Identify the shortcomings in the existing water distribution system from the calibrated water distribution system model for each planning period and provide recommendations for improvements. ► Use the local fire flow guidelines to determine system fire flow needs. Program and execute a series of fire flow model scenarios, for existing conditions and future scenarios identified above, assuming fire flows at various locations throughout the system. Locations will be geographically distributed to sufficiently evaluate all areas of the system and selepted in collaboration with City's staff. Compare results with required fire flows at each location, respectively, and identify any deficiencies. Provide a database listing of the pipe segments with the following information during peak hour demands:
• Pressure
Flow velocities
• Head loss per 100 feet of pipe
• Pressure drop relative to static system pressure
• Fire flow
B. Assess the water system (3 well fields, 1 WTP, 1 Tower), compile the data obtained in item A and review the current documented risk and resiliency assessment to determine system failure points, system upgrades, etc. This will be used to create T Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) (Task 2). a. Desktop Assessment of City's water and wastewater Infrastructure ► Collect and analyze the City's records on the water and sewer system including, but not limited to, water treatment plants and water distribution system, wastewater treatment plant, GIS data, record drawings, maintenance records, sewer televising videos, flow data, sewer back-up data, water main break inventory, etc. ► Assess the City's existing staffing levels compared to current and upcoming regulatory requirements and programs. Incorporate recommendations into the CIP. b. Site Condition Assessment ► Conduct two (2) site visits to assess the condition of water treatment plant, wastewater treatment plant, booster stations, lift station structures, mechanical equipment, electrical equipment, ground storage tanks, wells, water towers, PRV's, and control systems.

PACIFIC ► During the site visit, HR Green will obtain input from the City staff on the existing equipment performance and historical operational challenges. ► Review the Trichloropropane (TCP) contamination issues (due to the agriculture activities surrounding the city) and determine betterments to treatment to address the issue. Consult with treatment equipment vendors to get required treatment units sizing and budgetary cost opinions. No detailed design is included in the proposed scope of services ► The information gathered during our assessment of the water and sewer systems and site visits will be used to develop a list of capital improvements needed over the next five fiscal years c. Prioritized Project List ► Conduct virtual Teams meeting with key City staff to prioritize the list of potential projects ► Finalize the prioritized project list based on City input d. Develop Budgetary Cost Estimates ► Develop budgetary cost estimates for each project on the prioritized list ► Consult with treatment equipment vendors for equipment sizing to address the TCP contamination issue at one existing groundwater well and obtain budgetary cost opinions for improvements to the Wf P at site. HR Green has budgeted 20 hours for this effort e. Finalize Capital Improvement Program ► Formalize the Capital Improvement Program with prioritized water/sewer projects, recommended implementation timelines, and anticipated costs ► Prepare a supporting memorandum for the CIP C.
