SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM TESTING 33 0130.13-2
detectable leaks shall be repaired, regardless of the results of the tests. The OWNER reserves the right to require testing of the entire installation. Cost of repairs or corrections necessary to conform to the following testing requirements will be borne by the Contractor at no additional cost to the Contracting Agency.

B. Pressure sewers (force mains); water pressure test at 120% of maximum operating pressure, measured at the lowest point of the pipeline section being tested.

C. Gravity sewers pipe lines and manholes shall be subject to acceptance testing after backfilling has been completed but prior to the placement of the finished surface material.

1. Low Pressure Air Test: Testing will be accomplished by the means of “Low Pressure Air Testing.” Tests may be conducted by the Contractor or an independent testing firm.

However, acceptance tests shall be made only in the presence of the Engineer or District Representative.
a. Test Procedure:
1) Before testing, the pipe shall be thoroughly cleaned. 2) The Contractor shall seal off the section of pipe to be tested at each manhole connection. Test plugs must be securely braced within the manholes. 3) A minimum of two connecting hoses to link the air inlet test plug with an above ground test monitoring panel must be provided.
a) One hose is to induce air through the test plug and into the test chamber. b) The second hose is for the purpose of monitoring the test pressure from within the enclosed pipe.
4) UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE WORKERS TO BE ALLOWED IN

THE CONNECTING MANHOLES WHILE A PRESSURE TEST IS BEING
CONDUCTED.
5) Add air slowly into the test section. After an internal pressure of 4.0 psi is obtained, allow internal air temperature to stabilize.
6) After stabilization period, adjust the internal air pressure to 3.5 psi, disconnect the air supply and begin timing the test.
7) Refer to Table 3.3-1 to determine the length of time (minutes) the section under test must sustain while not losing in excess of 1 psi as monitored by the test gauge. If the section of line to be tested includes more than one pipe size, calculate the test time for each size and add the test times to arrive at the total test time for the section.
8) Sections so determined to have lost 1 psi or less during the test period will have passed the leakage test. Those sections losing in excess of 1 psi during the test period will have failed the leakage test.
9) Appropriate repairs must then be completed and the line retested for acceptance.

Subject: Geotechnical Seismicity and Foundation Update
Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions
Seal Beach, California
Dear Mr. Lee:

In accordance with our proposal dated January 29, 2021 (Ninyo & Moore, 2021), we have prepared this letter to provide additional geotechnical design recommendations in support of the Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions project located in the city of Seal Beach, California. We previously provided a geotechnical evaluation report dated September 19, 2008 (Ninyo & Moore, 2008). We understand that four new water tanks will be added at the well site on the west side of the existing well building. The new tanks will be approximately 12 feet in diameter and 20 feet high. Each tank will be supported on four legs that will be approximately 4 feet tall. The total height of the tanks and legs will be approximately 24 feet above the ground surface. The foundation support of the four tanks will be in the form of a single mat to be placed in a north-south alignment.

Our previous geotechnical evaluation presented our design recommendations based on the 2007 California Building Code (CBC) that was applicable at the time. At present, the relevant building code is the 2019 CBC. The 2019 CBC follows the guidelines presented in the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Publication 7-16 (2016) for the Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures.

The purpose of this study is to provide updated geotechnical seismic design parameters in accordance with the 2019 CBC and ASCE 7-16 guidelines and provide updated geotechnical recommendations for the proposed mat foundation supporting the tanks. We have utilized the existing geotechnical data from our prior subsurface exploration at the site.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
In accordance with our referenced proposal, we performed the following services:
 Reviewed our previous geotechnical report.

Ninyo & Moore | Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions, Seal Beach, California | 207462002 | June 9, 2021 2  Updated our seismicity evaluation including development of design acceleration response spectrum and seismic design parameters in accordance with the 2019 CBC and ASCE 7-16. o Developed the Risk-Targeted Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCER) response spectrum in accordance with Chapter 11 of ASCE 7-16.
o Developed site-specific response spectrum and acceleration parameters in accordance with Chapter 21 of ASCE 7-16.
 Developed geotechnical design recommendations for the new mat foundation.  Prepared this letter report presenting the updated seismic design criteria and mat foundation design recommendations.

Site-Specific Seismic Ground Motion
Considering the proximity of the site to active faults capable of producing a maximum moment magnitude of 6.0 or more, the project area has a high potential for experiencing strong ground motion. The 2019 California Building Code (CBC) specifies that the risk-targeted maximum considered earthquake (MCER) ground motion response accelerations be used to evaluate seismic loads for design of buildings and other structures. The 2019 CBC mandates that a site-specific ground motion hazard analysis shall be performed for structures on Site Class D with a mapped MCER, 5 percent damped, spectral response acceleration parameter at a period of 1 second (S1) greater than or equal to 0.2g in accordance with Sections 21.2 and 21.3 of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Publication 7-16 (2016) for the Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Building and Other Structures. We calculated that the S1 for the site is equal to 0.527g using the 2021 Applied Technology Council (ATC) seismic design tool (web-based); therefore, a sitespecific ground motion hazard analysis was performed for the project area.

The site-specific ground motion hazard analysis consisted of the review of available seismologic information for nearby faults and performance of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) and deterministic seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) to develop acceleration response spectrum (ARS) curves corresponding to the MCER for 5 percent damping. Prior to the site-specific ground motion hazard analysis, we obtained the mapped seismic ground motion values and developed the general MCER response spectrum for 5 percent damping in accordance with Section 11.4 of ASCE 7-16 (ATC, 2021). The average shear wave velocity (VS) for the upper 30 meters of soil (VS30) is assumed to be 228 meters per second (m/s) (California Geological Survey [CGS]/Wills et al., 2017) and the depths to VS = 1,000 m/s and VS = 2,500 m/s are assumed to be 700 meters and 4,050 meters, respectively (Southern California Earthquake Center [SCEC] Community Velocity Model Version 4 Basin Depth).

The 2014 new generation attenuation (NGA) West-2 relationships were used to evaluate the sitespecific ground motions. The NGA relationships that we used for developing the probabilistic and Ninyo & Moore | Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions, Seal Beach, California | 207462002 | June 9, 2021 3 deterministic response spectra are by Chiou and Youngs (2014), Campbell and Bozorgnia (2014), Boore, Stewart, Seyhan, and Atkinson (2014), and Abrahamson, Silva, and Kamai (2014). The Open Seismic Hazard Analysis software developed by USGS (USGS, 2020) was used for performing the PSHA. The Calculation of Weighted Average 2014 NGA Models spreadsheet by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER) was used for performing the DSHA (Seyhan, 2014).

PSHA was performed for earthquake hazards having a 2 percent chance of being exceeded in 50 years multiplied by the risk coefficients per ASCE 7-16. The maximum rotated components of ground motions were considered in PSHA with 5 percent damping. For the DSHA, we analyzed accelerations from characteristic earthquakes on active faults within the region using the hazard curves and deaggregation plots at the site obtained from the USGS Unified Hazard Tool application (USGS, 2021). A magnitude 7.3 event on the Compton fault with a rupture distance of 8.0 kilometers from the site was evaluated to be the controlling earthquake. Hence, the deterministic seismic hazard analysis was performed for the site using this event and corrections were made to the spectral accelerations for the 84th percentile of the maximum rotated component of ground motion with 5 percent damping.

The site-specific MCER response spectrum was taken as the lesser of the spectral response acceleration at any period from the PSHA and DSHA, and the site-specific general response spectrum was evaluated by taking two-thirds of the MCER response spectrum with some conditions in accordance with Section 21.3 of ASCE 7-16. Figure 1 presents the site-specific MCER response spectrum and the site-specific design response spectrum. The general mapped design response spectrum calculated in accordance with Section 11.4 of ASCE 7-16 is also presented on Figure 1 for comparison. The site-specific spectral response acceleration parameters, consistent with the 2019 CBC, are provided in Table 1 for the evaluation of seismic loads on buildings and other structures.

The site-specific maximum considered earthquake geometric mean (MCEG) peak ground acceleration, PGAM, was calculated as 0.691g.

Site-Specific Seismic Design Considerations
Design of the proposed improvements should be performed in accordance with the requirements of governing jurisdictions and applicable building codes. Table 1 presents the site-specific spectral response acceleration parameters in accordance with the CBC (2019) guidelines.

UPDATED RECOMMENDATIONS
In general, the remedial grading and other earthwork recommendations provided in our referenced report dated September 19, 2008, remain applicable to the current project. Updated mat foundation design recommendations are provided below.

Mat Foundations
We anticipate that the new tanks will be supported on a mat foundation bearing on a crushed rock/lean concrete base placed over the existing fill. The exposed subgrade should be scarified to a depth of approximately 8 inches, moisture-conditioned to slightly above the optimum moisture content, and compacted to a relative compaction of 90 percent as evaluated by ASTM D 1557.

Additionally, any loose, soft, or deleterious materials exposed at the planned foundation grade should be overexcavated and recompacted to a relative compaction of 90 percent. Excavations close to or below the groundwater table may encounter wet and/or loose/soft ground conditions. Therefore, moisture-conditioning may include aeration of the soils to reduce the moisture content to near optimum. In addition, wet soils may be subject to pumping under heavy equipment loads. If pumping soils are encountered, a 2-foot-thick layer of crushed rock can be placed to mitigate the pumping soils.

The proposed mat foundation may be designed using a net allowable bearing capacity of 1,000 pounds per square foot (psf) bearing on a crushed rock/lean concrete base layer underlain by competent subgrade. The allowable bearing capacity may be increased by one-third when considering loads of short duration, such as wind or seismic forces. The total and differential settlements corresponding to this allowable bearing load are estimated to be on the order of 1 inch and ½ inch over a horizontal span of 40 feet, respectively. Mat foundations typically experience some deflection due to loads placed on the mat and the reaction of the soils directly underlying the mat. A design modulus of subgrade reaction (K) of 70 tons per cubic foot may be used for the subgrade soils in evaluating such deflections.

Ninyo & Moore | Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions, Seal Beach, California | 207462002 | June 9, 2021 5 Foundations bearing on competent subgrade may be designed using a coefficient of friction of 0.30, where the total frictional resistance equals the coefficient of friction times the dead load. Foundations may be designed using a passive resistance value of 300 psf per foot of depth, up to a value of 3,000 psf. The allowable lateral resistance can be taken as the sum of the frictional resistance and passive resistance provided the passive resistance does not exceed one-half of the total allowable resistance. The passive resistance may be increased by one-third when considering loads of short duration such as wind or seismic forces.

Corrosivity
The results of our limited corrosivity testing performed in 2008 indicated an electrical resistivity of approximately 150 ohm-centimeters, soil pH of approximately 8.1, chloride content of approximately 315 parts per million [ppm], and sulfate content of approximately 0.21 percent by weight (i.e. 2,100 ppm). Based on the laboratory test results and Caltrans (2018) corrosion criteria, the project site can be classified as a corrosive site. Caltrans currently considers a site to be corrosive to foundation elements if the minimum resistivity is less than or equal to 1,100 ohm-cm and one or more of the following conditions exist: chloride concentration is greater than or equal to 500 ppm, sulfate concentration is greater than or equal to 1,500 ppm, or the pH is 5.5 or less.

Concrete Placement
Concrete in contact with soil or water that contains high concentrations of water-soluble sulfates can be subject to premature chemical and/or physical deterioration. Based on the CBC (2019), the potential for sulfate attack is negligible for water-soluble sulfate contents in soil ranging from 0.00 to

0.10 percent by weight, moderate for water-soluble sulfate contents ranging from 0.10 to 0.20 percent by weight, severe for water-soluble sulfate contents ranging from 0.20 to 2.00 percent by weight, and very severe for water-soluble sulfate contents over 2.00 percent by weight. The soil sample previously tested indicated a water-soluble sulfate content of approximately 0.21 percent by weight (i.e., 2,100 ppm). Accordingly, the on-site soils are considered to have a severe potential for sulfate attack. Therefore, we recommend that Type V cement with a water/cement ratio of 0.45 or less be considered for the project.

To reduce the potential for shrinkage cracks in the concrete during curing, we recommend that the concrete for the proposed improvements, if applicable, be placed with a slump of 4 inches based on ASTM C 143. The slump should be checked periodically at the site prior to concrete placement. We further recommend that concrete cover over reinforcing steel for foundations be provided in accordance with CBC (2019). The structural engineer should be consulted for additional concrete specifications.

Subject: Geotechnical Seismicity and Foundation Update
Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions
Seal Beach, California
Dear Mr. Lee:

In accordance with our proposal dated January 29, 2021 (Ninyo & Moore, 2021), we have prepared this letter to provide additional geotechnical design recommendations in support of the Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions project located in the city of Seal Beach, California. We previously provided a geotechnical evaluation report dated September 19, 2008 (Ninyo & Moore, 2008). We understand that four new water tanks will be added at the well site on the west side of the existing well building. The new tanks will be approximately 12 feet in diameter and 20 feet high. Each tank will be supported on four legs that will be approximately 4 feet tall. The total height of the tanks and legs will be approximately 24 feet above the ground surface. The foundation support of the four tanks will be in the form of a single mat to be placed in a north-south alignment.

Our previous geotechnical evaluation presented our design recommendations based on the 2007 California Building Code (CBC) that was applicable at the time. At present, the relevant building code is the 2019 CBC. The 2019 CBC follows the guidelines presented in the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Publication 7-16 (2016) for the Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures.

The purpose of this study is to provide updated geotechnical seismic design parameters in accordance with the 2019 CBC and ASCE 7-16 guidelines and provide updated geotechnical recommendations for the proposed mat foundation supporting the tanks. We have utilized the existing geotechnical data from our prior subsurface exploration at the site.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
In accordance with our referenced proposal, we performed the following services:
 Reviewed our previous geotechnical report.

Ninyo & Moore | Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions, Seal Beach, California | 207462002 | November 2, 2021 2  Updated our seismicity evaluation including development of design acceleration response spectrum and seismic design parameters in accordance with the 2019 CBC and ASCE 7-16. o Developed the Risk-Targeted Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCER) response spectrum in accordance with Chapter 11 of ASCE 7-16.
o Developed site-specific response spectrum and acceleration parameters in accordance with Chapter 21 of ASCE 7-16.
 Developed geotechnical design recommendations for the new mat foundation.  Prepared this letter report presenting the updated seismic design criteria and mat foundation design recommendations.

Site-Specific Seismic Ground Motion
Considering the proximity of the site to active faults capable of producing a maximum moment magnitude of 6.0 or more, the project area has a high potential for experiencing strong ground motion. The 2019 CBC specifies that the MCER ground motion response accelerations be used to evaluate seismic loads for design of buildings and other structures. The 2019 CBC mandates that a site-specific ground motion hazard analysis shall be performed for structures on Site Class D with a mapped MCER, 5 percent damped, spectral response acceleration parameter at a period of 1 second (S1) greater than or equal to 0.2g in accordance with Sections 21.2 and 21.3 of the ASCE Publication 7-16 (2016) for the Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Building and Other Structures.

We calculated that the S1 for the site is equal to 0.527g using the 2021 Applied Technology Council (ATC) seismic design tool (web-based); therefore, a site-specific ground motion hazard analysis was performed for the project area.

The site-specific ground motion hazard analysis consisted of the review of available seismologic information for nearby faults and performance of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) and deterministic seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) to develop acceleration response spectrum curves corresponding to the MCER for 5 percent damping. Prior to the site-specific ground motion hazard analysis, we obtained the mapped seismic ground motion values and developed the general MCER response spectrum for 5 percent damping in accordance with Section 11.4 of ASCE 7-16 (ATC, 2021). The average shear wave velocity (VS) for the upper 30 meters of soil (VS30) is assumed to be 228 meters per second (m/s) (California Geological Survey [CGS]/Wills et al., 2017) and the depths to VS = 1,000 m/s and VS = 2,500 m/s are assumed to be 700 meters and 4,050 meters, respectively (Southern California Earthquake Center [SCEC] Community Velocity Model Version 4 Basin Depth).

The 2014 new generation attenuation (NGA) West-2 relationships were used to evaluate the sitespecific ground motions. The NGA relationships that we used for developing the probabilistic and deterministic response spectra are by Chiou and Youngs (2014), Campbell and Bozorgnia (2014), Boore, Stewart, Seyhan, and Atkinson (2014), and Abrahamson, Silva, and Kamai (2014). The Open Seismic Hazard Analysis software developed by United States Geological Survey (USGS, 2020) was Ninyo & Moore | Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions, Seal Beach, California | 207462002 | November 2, 2021 3 used for performing the PSHA. The Calculation of Weighted Average 2014 NGA Models spreadsheet by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center was used for performing the DSHA (Seyhan, 2014).

PSHA was performed for earthquake hazards having a 2 percent chance of being exceeded in 50 years multiplied by the risk coefficients per ASCE 7-16. The maximum rotated components of ground motions were considered in PSHA with 5 percent damping. For the DSHA, we analyzed accelerations from characteristic earthquakes on active faults within the region using the hazard curves and deaggregation plots at the site obtained from the USGS Unified Hazard Tool application (USGS, 2021). A magnitude 7.3 event on the Compton fault with a rupture distance of 8.0 kilometers from the site was evaluated to be the controlling earthquake. Hence, the deterministic seismic hazard analysis was performed for the site using this event and corrections were made to the spectral accelerations for the 84th percentile of the maximum rotated component of ground motion with 5 percent damping.

The site-specific MCER response spectrum was taken as the lesser of the spectral response acceleration at any period from the PSHA and DSHA, and the site-specific general response spectrum was evaluated by taking two-thirds of the MCER response spectrum with some conditions in accordance with Section 21.3 of ASCE 7-16. Figure 1 presents the site-specific MCER response spectrum and the site-specific design response spectrum. The general mapped design response spectrum calculated in accordance with Section 11.4 of ASCE 7-16 is also presented on Figure 1 for comparison. The site-specific spectral response acceleration parameters, consistent with the 2019 CBC, are provided in Table 1 for the evaluation of seismic loads on buildings and other structures.

The site-specific maximum considered earthquake geometric mean (MCEG) peak ground acceleration, PGAM, was calculated as 0.691g.

Site-Specific Seismic Design Considerations
Design of the proposed improvements should be performed in accordance with the requirements of governing jurisdictions and applicable building codes. Table 1 presents the site-specific spectral response acceleration parameters in accordance with the CBC (2019) guidelines.

UPDATED RECOMMENDATIONS
In general, the remedial grading and other earthwork recommendations provided in our referenced report dated September 19, 2008, remain applicable to the current project. Updated mat foundation design recommendations are provided below.

Mat Foundations
We anticipate that the new tanks will be supported on a mat foundation bearing on a crushed rock/lean concrete base placed over the existing fill. It is not clear to us whether the mat will be partly embedded into the subgrade or placed at or above the finished surface grade. In either case, the exposed subgrade or surface grade should be scarified to a depth of approximately 8 inches, moisture-conditioned to slightly above the optimum moisture content, and compacted to a relative compaction of 90 percent as evaluated by ASTM International (ASTM) D 1557. Additionally, any loose, soft, or deleterious materials exposed at the planned foundation grade should be overexcavated and recompacted to a relative compaction of 90 percent. Excavations close to or below the groundwater table may encounter wet and/or loose/soft ground conditions. Therefore, moisture-conditioning may include aeration of the soils to reduce the moisture content to near optimum. In addition, wet soils may be subject to pumping under heavy equipment loads. If pumping soils are encountered, a 2-foot-thick layer of crushed rock can be placed to mitigate the pumping soils.

The proposed mat foundation may be designed using a net allowable bearing capacity of 1,000 pounds per square foot (psf) bearing on a crushed rock/lean concrete base layer underlain by competent subgrade or surface grade. The total and differential settlements corresponding to this allowable bearing load are estimated to be on the order of 1 inch and ½ inch over a horizontal span of 40 feet, respectively. Based on our recent discussions with the structural engineer, we understand that the short term seismic bearing pressure would be on the order of 2,000 psf. In our opinion, the allowable bearing capacity may be increased to 2,000 psf when considering short term seismic loads.

Mat foundations typically experience some deflection due to loads placed on the mat and the reaction of the soils directly underlying the mat. A design modulus of subgrade reaction (K) of 70 tons per cubic foot may be used for the competent subgrade or surface grade soils in evaluating such deflections.

The mat foundation bearing on competent subgrade or surface grade may be designed using a coefficient of friction of 0.30, where the total frictional resistance equals the coefficient of friction times the dead load. For a mat embedded into the subgrade, a passive resistance value of 300 psf per foot of depth, up to a value of 3,000 psf, may be used. Passive resistance should be ignored for the upper 1 foot of embedment below the finished surface grade. The allowable lateral resistance can be taken Ninyo & Moore | Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions, Seal Beach, California | 207462002 | November 2, 2021 5 as the sum of the frictional resistance and passive resistance, as applicable based on the embedment condition, provided the passive resistance does not exceed one-half of the total allowable resistance. The passive resistance, if applicable, may be increased by one-third when considering loads of short duration such as wind or seismic forces.

Corrosivity
The results of our limited corrosivity testing performed in 2008 indicated an electrical resistivity of approximately 150 ohm-centimeters, soil pH of approximately 8.1, chloride content of approximately 315 parts per million [ppm], and sulfate content of approximately 0.21 percent by weight (i.e. 2,100 ppm). Based on the laboratory test results and Caltrans (2018) corrosion criteria, the project site can be classified as a corrosive site. Caltrans currently considers a site to be corrosive to foundation elements if the minimum resistivity is less than or equal to 1,100 ohm-cm and one or more of the following conditions exist: chloride concentration is greater than or equal to 500 ppm, sulfate concentration is greater than or equal to 1,500 ppm, or the pH is 5.5 or less.

Concrete Placement
Concrete in contact with soil or water that contains high concentrations of water-soluble sulfates can be subject to premature chemical and/or physical deterioration. Based on the CBC (2019), the potential for sulfate attack is negligible for water-soluble sulfate contents in soil ranging from 0.00 to

0.10 percent by weight, moderate for water-soluble sulfate contents ranging from 0.10 to 0.20 percent by weight, severe for water-soluble sulfate contents ranging from 0.20 to 2.00 percent by weight, and very severe for water-soluble sulfate contents over 2.00 percent by weight. The soil sample previously tested indicated a water-soluble sulfate content of approximately 0.21 percent by weight (i.e., 2,100 ppm). Accordingly, the on-site soils are considered to have a severe potential for sulfate attack. Therefore, we recommend that Type V cement with a water/cement ratio of 0.45 or less be considered for the project.

To reduce the potential for shrinkage cracks in the concrete during curing, we recommend that the concrete for the proposed improvements, if applicable, be placed with a slump of 4 inches based on ASTM C 143. The slump should be checked periodically at the site prior to concrete placement. We further recommend that concrete cover over reinforcing steel for foundations be provided in accordance with CBC (2019). The structural engineer should be consulted for additional concrete specifications.

LIMITATIONS
The geotechnical analyses presented in this letter report have been conducted in general accordance with current practice and the standard of care exercised by geotechnical consultants performing similar tasks in the project area. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made regarding Ninyo & Moore | Lampson Avenue Well Water Tank Additions, Seal Beach, California | 207462002 | November 2, 2021 6 the conclusions, recommendations, and opinions presented in this report. There is no evaluation detailed enough to reveal every subsurface condition. Variations may exist and conditions not observed or described in this report may be encountered during construction. Uncertainties relative to subsurface conditions can be reduced through additional subsurface exploration. Additional subsurface evaluation will be performed upon request.

We appreciate the opportunity to be of continued service on this project.

Hello Kathryne,
Received your VMd a few moments ago. I have performed a brief evaluation of Cha ee and am including it below. Mark has relevant comments and will be calling you shortly. Let me know if you want us to dive into this deeper and also evaluate second bidder PHC.

RE: CITY OF SEAL BEACH ORANGE COUNTY STATE OF CALIFORNIA CONTRACT DOCUMENTS For LAMPSON WELL TREATMENT SYSTEM Project CIP No. WT 1902 Bid Opening Date and Time: July 2nd at 10:30 am
My bottom-line view: R.E. Cha ee is not a clean award candidate as presently documented. The package is largely assembled, but I would not recommend a confident finding that they are both responsive and responsible without further review, and there is enough in the record to support either a questioned responsiveness finding or a failure to establish responsibility.

On the facial responsiveness side, they did submit most of the bid-time items the City required: signed proposal/bid sheets, bid bond, noncollusion declaration, subcontractor list, sureties, industrial safety record, bidder questionnaire, experience/reference material, resumes, project history, critical sta form, addenda acknowledgment, and signatory-authority documents. The noncollusion declaration is signed and notarized at pages 30-31; the addenda acknowledgment and questionnaire are present at pages 35- 40; and corporate authority support is attached at pages 50-53. The questionnaire also states CSLB license no. 897948 with classes A/B/C57 and DIR registration no. 1000707243. On that narrow “is there a bid package here?” level, the submission is mostly complete.

That said, I see at least three responsiveness problems. First, the industrial safety record at pages 33-34 appears internally inconsistent: the 2023 “lost workday cases” cell appears to read “360” while the total column for that same row reads “0.” Second, I do not see a separate notarial acknowledgment attached to the safety record, even though the form instructions require corporate-o icer signatures to be acknowledged before a notary. Third, several required forms are not actually filled out in the spaces provided; they mostly say “See Attached.” The City’s checklist expressly says failure to provide required information in a complete and accurate manner may cause the bid to be considered non-responsive.
2 On the responsibility side, there are some positives. The package shows real public-works experience and includes a long reference list at pages 42-48 with wells, pump stations, water mains, lift-station work, sewer/wastewater work, hydropneumatic tanks, and utility projects. Ronald E. Cha ee Jr.’s resume also states experience with pump stations and water/wastewater treatment facilities, and Gregory Borbon’s resume shows long superintendent experience. Also, the questionnaire says nobody attended the pre-bid meeting, but the Notice Inviting Bids made that meeting optional, so that item should not count against them.

The bigger issue is comparability of experience. The submitted Bidder’s Project History page in the bid package (page 28) calls for similar work tied to separate pressurized water treatment projects such as GAC, ion exchange, surge tanks, membrane filtration, or pressurized filtration. Yet the attached project list is a mix of somewhat relevant utility work and plainly non-comparable work such as guard shacks, signage, Caltrans channel repair, asphalt/shoulder paving, and restroom structures. I do not see a strong, clean showing of completed projects that are directly analogous to the Lampson Well Treatment System itself. Even the more relevant jobs look closer to well equipping, booster stations, waterlines, and general utility work than to construction of a pressurized treatment facility.

The critical-sta showing is also weak. At page 29, the proposed Project Manager is listed as Joe Iriberri and the proposed Superintendent as Greg Borbon, but I only see resumes for Ronald E. Cha ee Jr. and Gregory Borbon. I do not see a resume clearly tied to Joe Iriberri, and I do not see the required three sta -specific similar projects laid out for each critical position in the form itself. The form just says “See Attached Project References / See Attached Work in Progress,” but the attachment is a company-wide project list, not a clear Joe/Greg project history. That is a meaningful gap for a responsibility finding.

There is one more caution flag: the addenda acknowledgment at page 35 shows receipt of Addendum 1 only. That is fine only if Addendum 1 was the sole addendum issued. From the files you gave me, I cannot verify whether additional addenda existed. So addenda compliance is still an open check item before any award recommendation.

So my recommendation is: do not treat R.E. Cha ee as clearly qualified for award on the present record. The fairest, most defensible framing is that the bidder is facially assembled but substantively vulnerable. If the City applies its checklist strictly, there is support for a nonresponsive finding based on incomplete/inaccurate submission. If the City treats the experience and sta materials as responsibility-only information, then I still would say responsibility has not yet been adequately established. Before award, I would want: confirmation of all issued addenda, confirmation that all subcontractors above the listing threshold were disclosed, correction/explanation of the safety-record anomaly and notarization issue, a Joe Iriberri resume and sta -specific similar-project history, and independent verification of CSLB/DIR/surety/references/business-license status.

Subject: Apparent Low Bidder for Lampson Projecct
Hello Kathryne,
R.E. Chaee’s supplemental submittals improve its showing on responsibility, but they do not cure the main responsiveness concerns in the original bid package. The document’s overall conclusion is that Chaee should not yet be approved as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder because the record remains conditional and vulnerable.

The main issue is that several required bid-time forms were incomplete when originally submitted. The technical ability form, bidder’s project history, and critical sta form largely said “See Attached” instead of being fully completed, and Joe Iriberri’s resume was not included with the original bid. That means the later materials help explain qualifications, but they do not change the fact that the original bid may still be exposed on responsiveness grounds.

The strongest improvement is the addition of Joseph D. Iriberri’s resume, which provides a more credible proposed project manager and identifies relevant utility and treatmentrelated work, including the Sherrill Well PFAS Treatment Plant. The added GAC project references also give Chaee a closer match to the Lampson scope by showing projects involving GAC, membrane filtration, and other treatment work.

Even so, the new references are still weak in important respects. Some were unavailable for verification, some were below the bid document’s $4 million threshold, some were still in progress, and at least one included negative performance comments. The document also notes an inconsistency in the listed client for the Sherrill project. As a result, responsibility is improved, but still only marginally established.

The biggest unresolved problem remains the safety record. The document notes that the 2024 row shows “360” lost workday cases while the total column shows “0,” which is internally inconsistent. It also notes that no separate notarial acknowledgment appears to be attached to the safety-record pages. That remains a significant award risk.

Bottom line: the recommendation is to withhold approval for now. A defensible award would require the City to document that the original form defects were waivable or related only to responsibility, confirm that only Addendum 1 was issued, obtain a written correction/explanation for the safety-record anomaly, and complete favorable reference checks for the key personnel and treatment-related projects. Until then, approval remains protest-sensitive.

Kathryne,

See the following clarifications:

1. There was a clerical error on that page where we put 360 lost workdays not cases. So in 2024 the column should say 2 not 360. I have attached the revised Industrial safety record.

2. The notary has been attached to the revised Industrial Safety Report

3. The resume section of the Bid Documents requested the resumes of the General Construction Superintendent or the Onsite Construction Manager. This this case it would be Ronald Chaffee and/or Greg Borbon.

4. The contract for the job is with Orange County Water District, but the sites owner Golden State Water District is also very heavily involved in the project. We were required to be qualified by Golden State Water to Bid the Project

Hello Brett,
This email is a supplemental request to the information you provided via email dated April 6, 2026.

In reviewing the RE Chaffee bid further, please provide clarification on the following items:

1. The Industrial Safety Record shows 360 “lost workday cases” while the column total column for the same row reads “0.” Please clarify.

2. The Industrial Safety Record requires a notary acknowledgement. Please clarify why one was not included.
3 3. Please clarify why Joe Iriberri and Greg Borbon were listed as Critical Staff, but Ron Chaffee and Greg Borbon’s resumes were submitted with the RE Chaffee bid package.

4. Joe Iriberri’s resume and the new project references list the Sherrill Project, however, the agency listed is inconsistent. Is this a Golden State Water District project or an Orange County Water District project?
Please provide information by 5:00 pm on Friday, April 10, 2026.

Re: Bid Protest
Proposed Project: Lampson Well Treatment Systems Project (CIP No. WT 1902) Bid Opening Date: March 31, 2026
Dear Mr. Chaffee:

The City of Seal Beach has received a bid protest from Pacific Hydrotech Corporation dated April 6, 2026. A copy of the bid protest letter is enclosed, which contends that R.E.

Chaffee Construction Inc.’s (Chaffee) bid is non-responsive on several grounds, including the following:
“1. Failure to Meet Mandatory Experience Requirements (Non-Responsiveness) The proposal Form (Bidder’s Project History) explicitly requires bidders to demonstrate experience with similar work, defined as successfully completed construction of separate pressurized water treatment projects such as granular activated carbon (GAC), ion exchange, surge tanks, membrane filtration, and/or pressurized filtration.

However, based on our review of R.E. [Chaffee]’s submitted project references, none of the listed projects demonstrated experience with any of the required treatment systems. The submitted experience consists primarily of booster pump stations, wells, pipelines, life stations, and general civil infrastructure.

Even the referenced wastewater treatment plant project consists only of installation of sewer lines and manholes, not treatment process construction.” The protest letter also outlines additional grounds, including (2) Complete Absence of Qualifying Projects; (3) Material Deviation - Cannot Be Waived; and (4) Alternative Basis - Non-Responsibility.

On April 2, 2026, the City requested additional project references to provide Chaffee with the opportunity to meet the bid requirements; a copy of the additional references is enclosed. The submitted references include a water treatment project that has not been completed and does not meet the minimum project size requirement ($4 million or greater) for comparability with the Lampson Well Treatment System project.

Please inform the City whether you intend to withdraw your bid, or whether you have any contrary factual grounds and/or legal authority that would support overruling the protest and awarding the project to Chaffee. Please submit your response to the undersigned no later than 12:00 pm on April 15, 2025.

Sincerely,
Kathryne Cho
