Reclaimed water will be provided by the Desert Water Agency (AGENCY). The Colorado River Basin Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) have issued General Permits for the use of reclaimed water for landscape irrigation (General Permit 97-700 and Water Quality Order No. 2009-0006 respectively). In California, dual-plumbed reclaimed water systems (i.e. provision of plumbing and associated fixtures for the interior use of reclaimed water) have more stringent requirements than those for exterior systems for landscape irrigation. Specifically, the California Plumbing Code (CPC)previously considered reclaimed water under Section 601.2.2 and 601.2.3 and Appendix J. On November 18, 2009 the Building Standards Commission approved the California Dual Plumbing Code that establishes statewide standards for installing both potable and reclaimed water plumbing systems in commercial, retail, and office buildings, theaters, auditoriums, condominiums, schools, hotels, apartments, barracks, dormitories, jails, prisons, and reformatories. The code was published in July of 2010 and will become effective January 2011. Additionally, the requirements of Title 17 Section 7583 et seq. dealing with cross- connection control, and Title 22 Sections 60313-60616 dealing with reclaimed water dual plumbed systems must be adhered to. Pursuant to the requirements of the California Department of Public Health, an Engineering Report is required to be prepared to provide the following information: • Description of the proposed reclamation system; • Description of a contingency plan; • Description of the intended use of reclaimed water; • Plans and specifications of the reclaimed water distribution system; • Methods for cross-connection control. CONSULTANT therefore proposes to conduct the following scope of services related to the provisions of its engineering and planning assistance for the permitting of the use of reclaimed water for interior purposes at the proposed animal services facility. Throughout this scope of services, regulatory permitting coordination and approval activities are intended solely for the proposed uses of reclaimed water. Additionally, our experience is that the proposed heated use (and discharge) of reclaimed water results in additional concerns by the Department of Public Health for the potential exposure to Legionella bacteria. TASK 1. REVIEW EXISTING INFORMATION CONSULTANT will review existing information provided by the CLIENT for completion of an Engineering Report for the Proposed Use of Reclaimed Water. Existing reclaimed water planning reports, permits, design plans and specification and other pertinent information made available by the CLIENT will be obtained, reviewed and taken into consideration in the conduct of this project. If additional information is required, CONSULTANT will request that information from CLIENT, and, CLIENT will gather and provide to CONSULTANT such additional information from the AGENCY, CITY, SWRCB and RWQCB. TASK 2. COORDINATION CONSULTANT will maintain ongoing coordination with CLIENT representatives to provide project status and to request and obtain necessary project information. CONSULTANT will coordinate via telephone, email and by fax communications. CONSULTANT will coordinate with CLIENT for CLIENT's revisions of project plans, specifications and design reports, as needed to support CONSULTANT's permitting assistance efforts. CONSULTANT will provide direction to CLIENT for the modifications and changes necessary to the project plans, specifications, and, reports to obtain permit approval for the use of reclaimed water. CONSULTANT will attend a project kick-off meeting to review and modify proposed scope of services, project schedule and budget, as well as to to request and obtain specific information for the Engineering Report. CONSULTANT assumes that one additional meeting with the CLIENT will be conduced during the conduct of the project to review project status and planned activities. CONSULTANT will coordinate with regulatory agency representatives to support the scope of services presented herein. CONSULTANT anticipates the need to discuss by telephone and email with representatives of the RWQCB, State DPH and County Health Department. For purposes of this proposed scope of services CONSULTANT has estimated the budget of this task based on a reduced level of effort of 24 hours as sufficient to coordinate with agency representatives. If additional agency coordination efforts are required, CONSULTANT will identify to the CLIENT that need and will provide a modified budget for approval. CONSULTANT will coordinate with representatives of the City Animal Care Facility and Desert Water Agency to request and obtain specific information required as part of the Engineering Report. CONSULTANT will maintain copies of project related communications and will actively coordinate with the CLIENT in advance of the above activities. TASK 3. REPORTING CONSULTANT will deliver one electronic copy of Engineering Report deliverables in a format compatible with CLIENT software for graphics, spreadsheet and word processing. Based upon review of project plans in Task 1, CONSULTANT will prepare a letter to the CLIENT describing suggested modifications to project plans for compliance with regional and state requirements for reclaimed water system construction and use. CONSULTANT will prepare an outline of the Engineering Report based on the findings of Tasks 1 and 2 and the Department of Public Health 2001 "Guidelines for the Preparation of an 2 Engineering Report for the Production, Distribution and Use of Reclaimed Water." The outline will include a brief narrative describing each report section. CONSULTANT will include summary comments received from the regulatory agencies. CONSULTANT will prepare an Engineering Report to include modifications to the outline developed through review with CLIENT and regulatory agencies. CONSULTANT will complete the Engineering Report to be consistent with the requirements of the DPH, and, agreed upon content as developed in the report outline. The Engineering Report will consist of the following information: I. Description of the design of the proposed reclamation system. 2. Means of compliance with reclaimed water regulations. 3. Contingency plan to assure that no untreated or inadequately treated wastewater will be delivered to the use area. 4. Detailed description of the intended use area identifying: I. The number, location, type of facilities within the use area proposed to use dual plumbed systems. 2. The average number of persons estimated to be served be each facility on a daily basis (i.e. number of visitors and employees); 3. Specific boundaries of the proposed use area. 4. The person or persons responsible for operation of the dual plumbed system. 5. The specific uses to be made of reclaimed water. 5. Plans and Specifications describing: t. Proposed piping system to be used. 2. Pipe locations of both reclaimed and potable systems. 3. Type and location of outlets and plumbing fixtures accessible to the public. 4. Methods and devices to be used for backflow prevention of reclaimed water into the public water system. 6. Methods to be used by Desert Water Agency to assure that the dual-plumbed system will not result in cross connection between the reclaimed water piping system and the potable water pipeline system. 7. Methods to be used by the facility assure the inhibition of Legionella bacteria growth. CONSULTANT will submit one draft Engineering Report. CONSULTANT will submit one final Engineering Report incorporating comments received from the CLIENT and regulatory agencies' review of the draft Engineering Report. TASK 4. ONGOING AGENCY COORDINATIQN Following submittal of the final Engineering Report, CONSULTANT maintain limited ongoing coordination with the CLIENT,AGENCY, CITY, DPH, RWQCB, and SWRCB through the design, construction and implementation of the project. For purposes of this proposed scope of services CONSULTANT has estimated the budget of this task based on a reduced level of effort of 14 hours as sufficient to coordinate with agency representatives. If additional agency coordination efforts are required, CONSULTANT will identify to the CLIENT that need and will provide a modified budget for approval. 3 CITY OF PALM SPRINGS PALM SPRINGS ANIMAL CARE FACILITY- REGULATORY PERMITTING ASSISTANCE FOR THE USE OF RECLAIMED WATER PROPOSED PROJECT SCHEDULE NOTICE TO PROCEED: AUGUST 30, 2010 TASK 1.
