5. APPOINTMENT OF REPRESENTATIVES TO THE UPPER SANTA ANA RIVER

WATERSHED INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCING AUTHORITY: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently issued a call to water and wastewater agencies to submit Letters of Intent for participation in a financing program pursuant to the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA). The WIFIA program provided low-interest loans to support financing of water infrastructure and related projects such as habitat preservation.

As WIFIA grants loans only to one organization, a Joint Exercise of Powers

Agreement (Agreement) was developed to serve as an intermediary entity for EPA financing and other future funding sources in order to provide multi-year infrastructure funding to public agencies in the Upper Watershed. On August 24, 2021, the Water Board approved the Agreement to join the Upper Santa Ana River Watershed Infrastructure Financing Authority (Authority) and forwarded to the Mayor and City Council for their consideration. On September 15, 2021, the City Council approved the Agreement.

The Agreement provided Authority guidelines, including formation of an Authority “Board of Directors” that would consist of two members from each participating agency. The Water Board needed to designate two representatives which would be a Department employee or Water Board Commissioner to serve as a Director and an alternate. General Manager Guerrero was designated a Director and President Callicott was designated an alternate.

MOTION: Adopt Resolution No. 2021-011, appointing two Water Department

representatives to serve as Directors on the Upper Santa Ana River Watershed Infrastructure Financing Authority Board of Directors.

6. 2021 STRATEGIC PLAN UPDATE: In 2019, the Department embarked in a

strategic planning effort with the goal to update its mission statement and key value statements and adopt a strategic plan that represented the Water Board’s assessment of the Department’s current state and captured the Board’s vision of an enhanced Department. On August 13, 2019, the Board adopted the revised Mission and Key Value Statements and the Department’s Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan included 5 Guiding Targets, 14 Goals that fell within the Targets, and an Action Plan with 100 specific actions aimed at meeting the Targets and Goals.

Regular Meeting Minutes September 28, 2021

The City of San Bernardino Water Board Page 4 Prepared September 28, 2021

It was best practice to conduct a thorough review and update of a strategic plan every

3-5 years. However, ongoing review/maintenance of an action plan was necessary to ensure it was current and properly executed. On September 22, 2020, the first Strategic Plan update was approved by the Water Board.

This Strategic Plan update again focused on the Action Plan progress, and it included

updated action timelines and action revisions and additions. Fourteen (14) new actions were included in the 2021 Strategic Plan Update.

There was no direct fiscal impact. Adopting the updated Strategic Plan update did

not commit funds to accomplish the actions or goals that were identified. The Department’s typical funding approval practices would apply as the Action Plan was executed.

President Callicott stated that it would be appropriate to conduct a Strategic Plan

Workshop next year and thanked General Manager Guerrero and staff for providing the update to the Water Board.

General Manager Guerrero stated that the City was currently working on its Strategic

Plan and once the Department’s updates were approved, he would work with the City’s consultants to incorporate some key actions of the Department’s Strategic Plan into the City’s plan.

Commissioner Brickley requested an update on the Facilities Relocation project. General Manager Guerrero stated that staff would continue to work with the Ad-Hoc

Committee, which included Commissioner Mlynarski and Commissioner Johnson, to provide information to the Water Board.

General Manager Guerrero stated that the hope was to commence construction

within the next six (6) months, and that the Department was going through the process of receiving entitlements from the City before construction would begin.

General Manager Guerrero stated that the Department would issue a Request for

Bids and would bring a construction contract to the Water Board for approval. Commissioner Johnson asked how many stakeholders were involved in the Salt and

Nutrient Management Plan. General Manager Guerrero stated that there were over ten (10) stakeholders involved

in the Salt and Nutrient Management Plan. Commissioner Johnson thanked General Manager Guerrero and staff for the

continual update and stated that it was refreshing to see the targets and goals come to fruition.

MOTION: Adopt the Water Department’s Strategic Plan update as presented in

the Strategic Plan 2021 Update Report.

8. EXTENSION NO. 1 TO CONTRACT NO. 1685R – PLAN CHECK AND

INSPECTION SERVICES – TKE ENGINEERING, INC. CASC ENGINEERING AND CONSULTING, INC, AND MICHAEL BAKER INTERNATIONAL, INC.: The Department utilized outside consultants to perform plan check services and to inspect infrastructure installed through agreements with developers. Having the three firms for this process had been effective in ensuring timely reviews for design plans and inspections for new infrastructure.

Staff recommended a one (1) year extension of Contract No. 1685R. Extension No. 1 would extend the contract from August 28, 2021 to August 28, 2022. All other terms and conditions remained the same. A final one (1) year extension remained under Contract No. 1685R.

The cost for plan check and inspection services for Developer-Installed Agreements were borne by the project applicant and were collected by the Department in accordance with Rule and Regulation No. 20 prior to initiation of any services. Costs for plan cheek and inspection services for CIP projects were estimated based on the fixed rate amount included in each Schedule of Fees. Commissioner Mlynarski asked if the Department tracked the progress in the efficiency of the design engineers that were submitting for plan check or the firms that were performing the plan check. Director Miller stated that the main issue would be communication between the different groups involved. The Department was developing a Developer’s Portal which would be accessed through the Department website and would serve as a tool to track the plan check process. Director Miller stated that the Engineering section was continually providing tools in order to make the plan check process more efficient. Commissioner Mlynarski stated that all three (3) firms were qualified and that the Department had a unique talent in being the mediator during the plan check process and this system was important because it continued to drive revenue to the Department and City. MOTION: Approve the Extension No. 1 to Contract No. 1685R1-3 with TKE

Engineering, Inc., CASC Engineering and Consulting, Inc., and Michael Baker International, Inc., extending the contracts from August 28, 2021 to August 28, 2022 under the same terms and conditions. The General Manager was authorized to execute the extensions.

October 6,2021.

Gteg Evans, Joseph Hanford, Ryan Nielsen, Travis Mendenhall, CindyMouser, Laserfiche

BACKGROUND:

In 1,996, a groundwater extraction relief well $Vell XR-a2) was constructed and equipped as one ofthirty-three (33) extraction wells at the Regional Tertiary Treatment Rapid Infiltration and

Extraction (RI{ Facility, joindy owned by the Cities of San Bernardino and Colton and operated bythe San Bernardino Municipal Water Department (Department). The design intent for the well was

to immediately extract infiltrated secondary treated wastewater and transfer the pumped water to the

ultraviolet (U\) disinfection system prior to being released via an outfall pipeline to the Santa AnaRiver (SAR).

OnJanuary 6,2027,while performing preventive maintenance on Well XR-42, the RIX maintenance

staff noticed a pronounced noise and determined the origin is ftom the pump at the boftom of thewell. Staff performed maintenance troubleshooting through the month of January 2021, to correctthe issue. Staff has identified that complete removal of the well equipment, rehabilitation of the well,and re-equipping of the system is necessary to restore proper function to W'ell XR-42.

In May 2020,staff issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ under Specification No. 1727 -

Well Rehabilitation Assessment and Repair. As a result, five (5) well rehabilitation contractorswere prequalified based on work experience, minimum insurance requirements, propercontractorrs license, bonding capacity, experience level, and adequate staffing.

Because other well pumps were under repair at the time, inJune 2027,9ta:ff requested proposals

from the prequalified contractors to remove, rehabilitate and re-equip RIX Well XR-42(under worstcase scenario conditions). Best Drilling and Pump, Inc., (Best Ddlling) was resPonsive and provided

the lowest quotation in the amount of $55,700.00. A copy of Best Drilling's proposal is attached forreference.

FROM: Kevin T. Stewart, P.E., Director of Water Reclamation

SUBJECT: REQUEST TO APPROVE REHABILITATION AND RE-EQUIPPING OF RIXWELL XR-57- 00273

DATE: October 6, 2021

CC: Greg Evans, Joseph Hanford, Ryan Nielsen, Travis Mendenhall, CindyMouser, Laserfiche

BACKGROUND:

In 1996, a groundwater extraction relief well (Well XR-57) was constructed and equipped as one ofthirty-three (33) extraction wells at the Regional Tertiary Treatment Rapid Infiltration and Extraction (RIX) Facility, jointly owned by the Cities of San Bernardino and Colton and operated bythe San Bernardino Municipal Water Department (Department). The design intent for the well was to immediately extract infiltrated secondary treated wastewater and transfer the pumped water to theultraviolet (UV) disinfection system prior to being released via an outfall pipeline to the Santa AnaRiver (SAR).

On October 20, 2020, while performing preventive maintenance on Well XR.-57, the RIX operationsstaff noticed a no-flow condition on the SCADA screen and the maintenance staff confirmed thepump shaft was binding and difficult to turn. Staff continued maintenance troubleshooting to try and correct the issue but determined a potential for more serious damage. Staff has identified that complete removal of the well equipment, rehabilitation of the well, and re-equipping of the system isnecessary to restore proper function to \Veil XR-57.

In May 2020, staff issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) under Specification No. 1727 -Well Rehabilitation Assessment and Repair. As a result, five (5) well rehabilitation contractorswere prequalified based on work experience, minimum insurance requirements, propercontractor's license, bonding capacity, experience level, and adequate staffing.

Because other well pumps were under repair at the time, in June 2021, Staff requested proposalsfrom the prequalified contractors to remove, rehabilitate and re-equip RIX Well XR-57(under worstcase scenario conditions). Best Drilling and Pump, Inc., (Best Drilling) was responsive and providedthe lowest quotation in the amount of $66,700.00. A copy of Best Drilling's proposal is attached forreference.
