Approve an agreement with.Brown&Caldwell in the amount of$59,800 to prepare an update to the Wastewater Facilities Master Plan. 2. Authorize the transfer of$25,000 in additional funding from Wastewater Collections System Improvements to the project account. DISCUSSION As part of the process to develop the Airport Area Specific Plan and the Margarita.Area Specific Plan, the consulting firm of Brown & Caldwell was hired to prepare a Wastewater Facilities Master Plan that included those areas. The purpose of the master plan is to identify the facilities that are needed for the City to provide sewer service to these areas. Recently, the City's Sphere of Influence and Urban Reserve were expanded to include additional lands in the Avila Ranch area to the south of the City. New sewer mains and at least one sewer lift station will be needed in order to provide this area with sewer service. This master planning effort will use existing land use and zoning information to help establish preliminary pipesizes and lift station location(s) for the sewer facilities that will be needed in order to serve this area. The facilities identified in the master plan will then be constructed by private developers, as conditions of any new development that will benefit from or make use of the.facilities. As author of the October 2000 Wastewater Facilities Master Plan, Brown & Caldwell is uniquely qualified to perform the supplemental master planning work. Brown & Caldwell has submitted a proposal for this work, dated May 18, 2007, which has been reviewed by staff and is considered to be reasonable in terms of scope and cost. The proposal has been included in the proposed agreement(Attachment 1). FISCAL IMPACT The 2007-09 Financial Plan includes a Significant Operating Program Change in Appendix A, page 64, with $40,000 of funding for this Wastewater Master Plan Update. The proposal from Brown & Caldwell is for $59,800. The recommended action would authorize the transfer of an additional $25,000 from Wastewater Collections System Improvements to cover the cost of the consultant services and provide an additional $5,200 for contingencies.

Task 2 - Review Existing Data and Documents We will collect and review pertinent data and documents including,but not limited to,the following. ® GIS data(land use,parcels,road alignments,topo/contours,etc.) • Sewer infrastructure attributes (pipe inverts,pump station details,etc.) • Sewer improvements made in the Airport Area since completion of the 2000 Wastewater Master Plan • Planning documents (General Plan,Specific Plans,etc.) • As-built plans and other relevant drawings/maps + Proposed sewer alignments in the Airport Area ® Previously completed flow monitoring studies/reports ® City standards/sewer system design criteria We will develop a data request list after reviewing the items listed above and work with the City to collect the missing data,if any. Task 3 - Study Area Characteristics and Flow Loading The study area for this project involves the Airport Area as depicted on Plate 1 from the City of San Luis Obispo Wastewater Master Plan Update dated October 2000. Itis bounded approximately by the following roads:South Higuera on the west;Buckeley on the south;Tank Farm on the north;and Santa Fe on the east. About half of the study area appears to have some level of existing development,while the other half appears to be undeveloped. Sewer flow rates from page 3-2 of the City of San Luis Obispo Wastewater Master Plan Update dated October 2000 will be used for this study and will be assigned to their respective land use polygons within the study area as identified by the data collected during Task 2.Additionally,peaking factors or curves will be taken from information collected during Task 2 and discussions with City staff No additional flow monitoring or Infiltration&Inflow calculations will be performed as part of this project. 1012\071001\003_Gmcml\)CP\I04135 SLO Masmtplan pcoposal.doc Al-1 Cs-s ATTACHMENT 1 Task 4 - Hydraulic Analysis Building upon the efforts from Tasks 2 and 3,we will develop a hydraulic model of the study area for this project to assist in determining infrastructure recommendations.Since the location of new gravity sewer pipe alignments significantly impact the hydraulic analysis,we will solicit the City's input on determining proposed piping configurations. Currently there is approximately half of the study area that appears to be undeveloped, and we will rely on direction from the City as to probable pipe locations so that we can perform the hydraulic analysis with the best available data at the time of this project.We will evaluate the study area under Average Dry Weather Flow(ADWF),Peak Dry Weather Flow(PDWF),and Peak Wet Weather Flow(PDWF). Infrastructure improvements will be sized according to City design criteria. Task 5 - Prepare Technical Memorandum Upon completion of Task 4,we will submit a Draft Technical Memorandum describing our assumptions and methods used,along with our findings and associated tables and figures,as needed.After receiving City comments on the Draft,we will revise and submit a Final Technical Memorandum to the City. 1012\071001\003_Ce cnl\\XT\104135 SLO MutupLin pmpos Ldoc Al-2 Cs-� » . \ ATTACHMENT ! \ S - + § « \ ! !
