On December 7, 2021 under Resolution No. 2021-464, City Council approved the award of bid and agreement for Slurry Oil on an as needed basis to VSS Emultech, Modesto CA, for a oneyear agreement with four (4) one-year extension options, for an annual estimated cost of $407,768, and a total amount not to exceed $2,038,840 over five years. The estimated annual spend was based on potential Producer Price Index (PPI) increases over the term of the agreement.

DISCUSSION:

The agreement terms and conditions authorize prices increases not to exceed the CalTrans California Crude Oil Price index1 which are negotiated through the Finance Purchasing Division.

From the approval of this agreement, this index has increased from 15-45% which will vary on a monthly basis. In November 2022, a 22% price increase was approved by the City with the CalTrans Crude Oil Price Index showing a 24% inflation at this time. With the current market conditions due to inflation and the drastic impacts with price increases occurring with fuel and oil, the agreement amount needs to be increased to capture this price increased. Additionally, with the purchase of a second Slurry Truck which became operational as of Fall 2022, this has almost doubled the volume of slurry oil needed for field operations.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Sufficient funds are budgeted against various funds and accounts to fund this recommended increased. The majority of the services will be utilized by the Surface Transportation Fund for the Public Works Street Division with other departments such as Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, and Storm Drainage Fund also using this agreement. The agreement will be utilized on an as needed basis based on the operational needs for each City Division.

Below is a summary of the annual estimated cost under this agreement through the full term of the agreement. Year 2 captures the 22% price increase, the second Slurry Truck in service and the potential of up to a 10% price increase for Year 3 through 5.

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Total
$407,468 $ 1,044,019 $ 1,148,421 $ 1,263,263 $ 1,389,589 $5,252,760 RECOMMENDED COMMITTEE ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Motion approving the First Amendment increasing the Agreement amount with VSS Emultech, Modesto, CA for slurry oil by $3,213,920 from $2,038,840 to a new total amount of $5,252,760 over five years and forwarding to Council for approval.

SUBJECT: Award Facultative Biosolids Removal Project
CONTACT: Cristian C. Ciotau, Senior Civil Engineer
[email protected], 209-577-5260
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Plans and Specifications for the Facultative Biosolids Removal Project, accepting the Bid, and awarding a contract to Synagro, of Baltimore, MD, for a total amount not to exceed $6,725,038, approving an Agreement with West Yost Associates for Engineering Support During Construction and Construction Management Services for a total amount not to exceed $2,246,522 and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: Wastewater Fund) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The recommended action supports the 2020-2025 City’s Strategic Plan Initiatives, Goal D:

Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance and sustainability efforts.

BACKGROUND:

The Jennings Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is located at 7007 Jennings Rd, and provides secondary and biological nutrient removal (BNR).

Biosolids from the WWTP Fixed Film Reactors and Biological Nutrient Removal/Membrane Bioreactor (BNR/MBR) facilities are discharged to the East Recirculation Channel and Facultative Ponds for treatment and storage.

The East Recirculation Channel is located on the east perimeter channel which encloses Facultative Ponds No. 1, 2, and 3 (Ponds). The Irrigation Forebay is located directly south of the south perimeter channel enclosing the three ponds. The dredging surface areas of the East Recirculation Channel and Irrigation Forebay are approximately 6 and 8 acres, respectively. #7..

Finance Committee, February 27, 2023
Award Facultative Biosolids Removal Project

Page 2 of 4 ends

The existing Ponds, Recirculation Channel and the Irrigation Forebay, have accumulated substantial amounts of biosolids as an extensive cleaning has never been undertaken, with the exception of a partial cleaning of Pond 1 approximately 35 years ago. Accumulation of biosolids reduces the capacity of these critical areas by displacing the volume needed for treatment. This project will provide for the removal of biosolids in critical areas of the Recirculation Channel, Facultative Pond No. 2 and the Irrigation Forebay, in order to maintain an effective secondary wastewater treatment process.

DISCUSSION:

The Project was advertised for bids on December 7, 2021 as having an initial contract period of three years with the possibility of up to two one-year renewal options, for a total contract period not to exceed five years.

Bids were publicly opened on March 8, 2022, pursuant to City Charter Section 1307. A total of two bids were received and following review of the bid packages, Synagro, of Baltimore, MD, was named the responsible bidder with the lowest responsive bid.

Bid Analysis:

Number of bids received
Number of bids within 10% of Engineer’s Estimate
Number of bids above the Engineer’s Estimate
Number of bids below the Engineer’s Estimate
Percent of lowest responsive bid below the Engineer’s Estimate 2 1
0 2

39.14%
The lowest responsive bid for the full five-year period, was provided by Synagro, of Baltimore, MD at 39.14% below the engineer’s estimate. The highest bid received was 3.51% below the engineer’s estimate. Bidder competition and participation were evident as the City received two bids, for this atypical kind of work.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $50,000 for material, equipment or contractual services to follow the formal bid procedures. The award of contract for the Facultative Biosolids Removal Project, to Synagro, of Baltimore, MD, conforms to the Modesto Municipal Code because the City complied with the formal bid procedures and Synagro, of Baltimore, MD was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

Therefore, staff recommends awarding the contract to Synagro, of Baltimore, MD.

While the contingency policy is utilized for each construction contract awarded by the City, it is not written into each contract, nor is it a guaranteed amount included in the final compensation to the contractor. Prior to bidding a project, staff works diligently to ensure that all projects and bid packages contain well-defined scopes of work and that all projects stay within budget.

The City’s “Change Order Approval Policy” enacted by Council Resolution No. 1994-443 on July 19, 1994, and revised on July 9, 2019 by Council Resolution No. 2019-326, established a contract change order authority of 8% for construction contracts of this dollar value. However, given the nature of this type of work, complexity and duration of this project, it is likely that this project could exceed the Director’s Authority of 8% ($413,849) of the contract amount of $5,173,106.

Therefore, City staff is requesting an increase in the Director’s Authority for the Construction Contingency to 30% ($1,551,932) of the construction contract price to address unforeseen #7..

Finance Committee, February 27, 2023
Award Facultative Biosolids Removal Project

conditions that may arise in the field as an extensive cleaning of this scale has never been undertaken in the history of the facility.

Additionally, considering the size, duration and complexity of the project Engineering Support During Construction and Construction Management Services will be needed to ensure the construction documents are followed and the work performed by the contractor meets the original design. The scope of work will include reviewing submittals, requests for information and field engineering support. West Yost Associates is the Engineer of Record for the original design, and therefore is the firm most qualified to provide these services. Selecting another engineering firm to provide these services would require that firm to interpret plans and design they did not prepare, which is inefficient and not a best practice.

In accordance with Modesto Municipal Code 8-3.204(a) Exceptions to Formal Bidding Requirements, this agreement is for professional services and, therefore, exempt from the bid requirement. Because West Yost Associates is uniquely qualified to provide the services for the reasons described above, other engineering firms were not solicited. Therefore, staff is requesting approval of an agreement with West Yost Associates, of Sacramento, CA for Engineering Support During Construction and Construction Management Services in the amount of $1,953,497, plus $293,025 in additional services (if needed), for a total amount not to exceed $2,246,522.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total estimated cost for the construction phase of this project is $9,271,560. A new noncapital project will be created and funded to house expenses associated with this phase of the project.

SUBJECT: Implementation Support for the Jennings Wastewater Treatment Plant Solids Removal Project
Dear Mr. Ciotau:

The purpose of this letter proposal is to provide the City of Modesto (City) a proposed Scope of Services and Budget for assistance with the implementation of the Jennings Wastewater Treatment Plant Solids Removal Project for the years 2023 through 2027. The City’s Contractor will remove solids from the Jennings Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) facultative treatment ponds, dewater the removed solids, and apply the dewatered solids to the City’s Modesto Ranch. For 2023, we anticipate that the work will begin in early June and continue through October. For subsequent years, we anticipate that the work will begin April 1 and continue through October 31. During this solids removal period, the Contractor will also conduct related work, including the construction of dewatering wells. To support the City in this effort, West Yost proposes both construction management and engineering support services.

The overall term of the solids removal Contractor’s services is three years, with a possible two-year extension. The scope and budget described below covers all five year of this project and is based on a relatively conservative estimate of the implementation support needed; the estimate also reflects several unknowns regarding the amount of Contractor supervision required and the associated level of effort for construction management.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
The following is a list of the key tasks necessary to perform this proposed Scope of Services, each further described below:
 Task 1. Construction Management Services
 Task 2. Engineering Services During Construction
 Task 3. Project Management

Task 1. Construction Management Services
The purpose of this task is to provide construction management services for implementation of the solids removal project. The specific efforts to be provided are described below.

Preconstruction Conference
Prior to the initiation of the Contractor’s services each year, West Yost will facilitate a Preconstruction Conference. West Yost will prepare the agenda, conduct the preconstruction meeting, and prepare the summary of the meeting for record purposes. The agenda will include a review of the contract administrative requirements, the details of mobilization, and an overview of the first 60 days of operation. Open items will be carried over to the first Progress Meeting.

Document Preconstruction Existing Conditions
West Yost will document the preconstruction conditions at the City’s WWTP. Documentation will include the ingress/egress of the hauling transport trucks through the plant to document the existing condition of the roadways, curbs, signage, landscaping, etc. to required restoration conditions at the completion of the contract.

Project Setup, Review, and Coordination
West Yost will coordinate with the Contractor and the City’s Project Manager for the mobilization of the Contractor’s material and equipment needed to perform the solids removal. This initial effort will also be used to setup the lines of communication between the City staff, West Yost staff, and the Contractor.

Correspondence/Document Control
West Yost will be the point of contact for all matters related to the administration of the contract with the Contractor. All incoming and outgoing correspondence related to the project will be through the West Yost construction management team. This includes maintaining the project records in the webbased document control system eBuilder, which will be provided by the City.

Issues Management
West Yost will create and maintain a Potential Change Order log that will be used to track project issues that have been identified by the Contractor through requests for information (RFIs) and/or Change Order Requests, or from the City that are deemed “owner-initiated changes”. Management of the issues will involve establishing merit, preparing a rough order-of-magnitude cost estimate, and reviewing potential time impacts. If the issue is deemed as an additional scope of work to the Contractor, a request for quotation will be issued to the Contractor. If there is dispute with entitlement, the resolution will utilize an issue escalation process to resolve the matter at higher management levels of West Yost, the City, and the Contractor.

Progress Payments
West Yost will review the Contractor’s monthly progress payment requests based on the weights and quantities of material removed from the channels or ponds each month. West Yost will track, separately from the Contractor, the quantity of the material removed and dewatered, based on the measurements of the moisture content of dewatered solids made by the West Yost team. The wet amount removed will be calculated using data obtained from the City’s analytical laboratory’s measurement of the moisture content in samples collected by West Yost and flow meter records maintained by the Contractor, using an Excel spreadsheet.

A comparison will be made with the Contractor’s records before the formal payment request is made by the Contractor. Upon reaching agreement with the Contractor, West Yost will approve the payment request and recommend to the City that it process the payment and track payment received by the Contractor to confirm payment is in accordance with prompt payment regulations. We will establish this procedure at the Preconstruction Conference.

Submittals
West Yost will receive all certifications, work plans, schedules, etc. that are required of this contract. We will review and formally return the submittal to the Contractor. Logs will be maintained showing submittals in review, submittals that have been returned with Amend and Resubmit status, and submittals not yet transmitted by the Contractor. Construction related submittals such as work plans, safety plans, stormwater pollution control plans, etc., will be reviewed by West Yost.

RFIs
West Yost will receive all RFIs generated and issued by the Contractor and distribute them to the appropriate parties. Responses will be generated by West Yost, and the RFI will be returned to the Contractor. If the response appears to have changed the contract scope, quality, or time, a potential change order (PCO) number will be assigned and used to track the resolution to closeout. Logs will be generated and be discussed during the weekly progress coordination meetings.

Progress/Coordination Meetings
West Yost will prepare agendas, conduct bi-weekly progress meetings with the Contractor, City staff, and other members of the project team to review overall progress, coordination, and communication related to safety, submittals, RFIs, changes, progress payments, coordination with plant operations, progress schedules, and quality. If other special meetings are necessary, West Yost will conduct and collect summaries of the discussions. Open items will be tracked to completion.

Observation, Sampling, and Record Keeping
West Yost will provide observation and record keeping of the Contractor’s performance of the dewatering work five days per week for the first four weeks of the work each year, then taper down inspection as the project progresses to two to three days per week. Based on West Yost’s experience, the presence of an inspector fulltime during the beginning of the work helps to establish the expectations necessary to meet the contract requirements and develops a positive, collaborative, and trustful relationship between the construction management team, the City, and the Contractor.

Following this initial period of fulltime inspection and oversight of the Contractor’s work, the inspector’s time onsite can decrease, depending on the performance of the Contractor with respect to adhering to the contract, in addition to performance, safety, cost, and schedule.

The dewatering performance and recordkeeping monitoring will involve collecting composite samples from the biosolids that are being dewatered. These samples will be analyzed by the City for total solids (percent total solids) daily and periodically for volatile solids (percent volatiles). The sample containers will be provided by the City. West Yost will coordinate with City staff regarding the number of sample containers required each week and will clearly label sample bottles with the sample dates and testing requirements.

We also anticipate being onsite daily during an anticipated six-week period when land application is occurring. During the anticipated six-week land application operation, West Yost will monitor the weights of dewatered solids to confirm the total amount (dry tons) of solids removed and land applied based on hauling records maintained by the Contractor. West Yost will also confirm that solids are applied to the correct fields and coordinate project land application with other City land application activities that may be occurring simultaneously.

Finally, we anticipate being onsite daily during a three-week period when the dewatering wells are being constructed. For purposes of this proposal, we are assuming that these dewatering wells will not be installed during the initial four-week observation period or the six-week land application period.

Each day West Yost staff is onsite, we will complete daily observation tasks that include confirmation that the Contractor, who will be responsible for site safety, has established safety protocols, the work zones are being adhered to, and the overall housekeeping of the work zones are being properly maintained. Site visit reports will be made by the inspector that include a summary of the weather and conditions of the site, the type and quantity of equipment and manpower on-site, a general description of the work performed, and the quantity of dewatering and/or land application that was performed that day. Photos of the work will be date stamped will be included with the report.

Weekly Reporting Review and Final Report Review
West Yost will review the weekly and final reports prepared by the Contractor. Comments and/or questions will be addressed to the Contractor.

Punchlist and Final Inspection
West Yost will arrange a final inspection following the end of the land application season (anticipated to be October 31 of each year). The inspection will create a final punchlist of work items remaining to be completed. The punchlist will be transmitted to the Contractor. The remainder of the contract will be to confirm that the items on the punchlist have been addressed, Contractor materials and equipment have been removed from the site, the biosolids staging area has been cleared, and any remaining deliverables are received.

Overhead Direct Costs
Overhead direct costs for vehicle usage consisting of $10/hour the Construction Manager and/or inspector is on site is included in the budget.

Task 1 Assumptions
 Solids removal, dewatering, and application duration to be no longer than 22 weeks in the year 2023 and 30 weeks in years 2024 through 2027

Submittal Reviews
West Yost will review the Contractor submittals for general conformance with the Contract Documents.

This task will also include development and maintenance of a submittal log (to track the receipt, review, and return of submittals provided by the Contractor). Submittal reviews will be provided on West Yost’s standard review response form, modified to suit City’s standard submittal disposition codes. For budgeting purposes, it has been assumed that the following submittals will be reviewed each year:
 Work Plan
 Dewatering Plan
 Hauling and Application Plan
 Post-land application summary
Responses to RFIs
RFIs submitted by the Contractor will be reviewed and necessary guidance will be provided to the Contractor on interpretation of the Contract Documents. West Yost will respond to formal RFIs that are provided to West Yost by the Construction Manager. Responses to RFIs will be provided on West Yost standard response forms. For budgeting purposes, it has been assumed that four (4) RFI responses will be generated each year.

Progress Meetings and Site Visits
This task includes periodic attendance at progress meetings during the project. This task also includes time for site visits by engineering staff members to observe the work and/or meet with the Contractor and/or construction management team. Such engineering site visits will take place at the request of the City. For budgeting purposes, it has been assumed that an engineering representative from West Yost will attend up to two (2) progress meetings and/or site visits in person, and up to two (2) progress meetings by teleconference per year. All meetings and/or site visits are assumed to have a duration of 1 hour each, exclusive of travel time.

Regulatory Assistance
At the initiation of the project, West Yost will develop a biosolids sampling and analytical plan. This plan will address the sampling and analytical methods and procedures required to evaluate the quality of the biosolids and meet EPA 503 regulations. West Yost staff will also be available over the duration of the project to assist the City in evaluating the data collected and to make recommendations, as needed, regarding data collection practices.
