Box 11628 Santa Rosa, CA 95406 Subject: Amended Scope of Work Incorporating Public Workshops re WAC Request for Assistance in Preparing New Master Agreement Dr. Mr. Ferris and Mr Poole: • Addition of Public Outreach-Element • As requested I have added a public outreach element to the proposed Master Water Agreement negotiation process. I propose the public,workshops be.facilitated by Professor Tom Jacobson of Sonoma State University. Tomis•an Associate Professor in the Department of Environmental Studies (since 1994). He holds a Masters Degree in City Planning-from U.C. Berkeley and a law degree from Hastings College of Law, San Francisco: In addition to the public workshops (I estimate,four in the first year), Tom would also assist by providing input on issue framing and solution finding. Tom is well,qualified in facilitation work, being the Director of Sonoma State's Institute for Community Planning Assistance and Coordinator-of the Environmental Mediation Program. Proposed Amended Scope of Work To accommodate this expanded approach, the following language is suggested for the scope of work for the agreement between the SCWA (contracting agent for the WAC) and John Olaf Nelson Water Resources Management (JONWRM): "Consultant(JONWRM) shall facilitate and assist the Water Advisory Committee - - u - - (WAC)-with development of anew-Master-Water Agreement between the.Sonoma, County Water.Agency(SCWA), existing water contractors (Santa Rosa, Petaluma, Sonoma, Rohnert Park; Cotati, North Mann Water District, Valley of the Moon Water 1 • District and Forestville.Water District), the Town of Windsor and.Marin.Municipal,Water • District all collectively designated as.'Parties to the proposed new agreement. Consultant, with'input from;the'Parties, will prepare drafts-of agreements for review by the Parties and act:as fadilitator'to assist Parties in attempting to come to agreement. The facilitation process will include public'workshops as noted on Exhibit:A tobe run by the Institute for Community Planning Assistance/Environmental Mediation Program (ICPA/E ) of Sonoma State University. .It is estimated that four public workshops will be required'in the first 12 months of the negotiation process. The number may be more or less as determined by the WAC. It is recognized it may take 2-Y/.years or more to complete the negotiation process. If fast- tracked it could take as little as a year Exhibit,A is an estimated annual budget based on work to be performed in the first year assuming a "paced" 2-1/2 year effort. Not included in this estimate are services to be°provided by SCWA and.the City of Santa Rosa which are described in detail in Notes.1 and 6 respectively of the Exhibit. The Exhibit describes-the rolls of Consultant and Consultant's subcontractor (Sonoma State University - official contractor for the ICPA/EMP). Consultant shall be represented by and all work performed by John Olaf Nelson, CE. Professional work provided by sub-consultant shall be performed by Tom Jacobson, JD, AICP. The goal is to achieve a proposed new Master Water Agreement that will replace„the; • Eleventh Amended Agreement for Water Supply- an agreement,that participating staff of the Parties•will feel comfortable recommending to their decision makers for,adoption. If agreement cannot be reached with Marin Municipal Water District;and/or the Town of Windsor, the goal shall be to achieve consensus on an agreement that staff of the WACwill. feel comfortable recommending to their decision makers. Work toh&perforthed,by the Contractor will include outreach via public workshops to permit opportunity for questions, comments and exchangeof information and ideas (workshops to. be held at locations and a frequency determined by the WAC), a suggested mission statement that'Parties can embrace, identification of issues and advice on issue framing, • recommendations for solution finding, and coordination/facilitation of negotiations between Parties -including suggested:disposition of comments from Parties;and others including comments for attorneys;representing Parties. Consultant will also remain available to`assist staff of Parties in making presentations to decision-makers.” • Termination .• As with facilitationlriegotiation services provided`by JONWRM for'the2MOU Regarding Water: • Transmission System.Capacity Allocation During Temporary Impairment,the termination clause in the services agreement between theSCWA and Consultant should include the same language, 2 • • - namely: "At any time and without cause, SCWA, as directed by the WAC, has the right to terminate this Agreement by giving five days written notice to Consultant. In the event Estimated Cost Exhibit A sets forth an estimate of Consultant's first year facilitation/negotiation costs, namely $98,740. Twenty-two percent,of this amount is attributed to four public workshops estimated to involve Consultant costs of$5,400 each (includes post meeting summary and issue;framing and solution finding advice provided by Consultant and sub-consultant). It is important to stress that the $98,740 figure represents an estimated budget f cure. This estimate can suffice as a value representing a sum the Consultant will not exceed without advance written authorization. The Consultant cannot, of course, guarantee consensus by all Parties mill be achieved. Further it must be recognized that the pace of progress on negotiations;and efficiency in performing work is very much a function of the commitment of the Parties to pursue the proposed new agreement diligently and to devote the times necessary to participate in the process by providing response and coni ments on the various draft agreements in a timely and thorough manner. Extrapolating the process out for 2-Vi years brings the total estimated cost to $247,000. • Alternatively, given ideal cooperation and aggressive participation by the Parties (including engineering and legal experts), it is estimated that a fast track process could yield an,agreement within-one year. Based on the Interim Impairment MOU experience,more effort would be required by Consultant for this'approach (75 hrs per month vs 40 hrs) and would increase the total first year (and only yeat cost)to an estimated $162,000. Therefore the range in Consultant costs to accomplish,this task is,estimated between a low of $162,000 to a high of$247,000 with,titne to complete varying from 1 year for the lower estimate and 2-%zyears for the higher estimate. • Recommendation Proceed with a "paced"approach to the negotiation with estimated first year costs to run $98,740. At the conclusion of the first year, a new services agreement would be considered based on progress made, satisfaction with the process and assessment by the WAC of prognosis for consensus among the Parties. I look forward to working with the Parties in launching this important effort and seeing it through to a successful conclusion. • 3 • Sincer• y yours, firki • S 1 laf Nelson P.S. Should the WAC wish to proceeclimmediately, work can be authorized;pursuant to an existing agreement between the SCWA and JONWRM dated June 7, 2000 entitled "Agreement,for Facilitation Services for Responding to Water Supply and Transmission Issues:of Concer=n." Task 2 of this agreement, which provides for assigning work on a task basis`as needed as determined by the SCWA, also contains the following language: "Work assignments may include services to be provided to the Water Advisory Commit- tee pursuath to the authority-set forth in Section 5.3 (c) of the Tenth Amended Agreement for Water,Supply and Construction of the Russian River-Cotati IntertieiProject, or once fully,executed the Eleventh Amended Agreement for Water Supply." The agreement further states tasks may be assigned by the Project Manager (Pam Jeane)-in writing and . shall include a scope of services,and:required work product. As of this date, remaining unspent funds available for this agreement amount to $15,100. Unless extended, the • agreement term expires June 30, 2001. Attachments: 1.

It's time our nation express similar outrage about the.triore.than'2,000 children who die!in,traffic crashes each year. Clearly, our nation's roadways are One of the:most deadly places we take our children. Traffic crashes; in fact, remain the No:'l.killer-of:kfds. That is why the Petaluma Police Department is,declaring zero'tolerance and participating in the largest-ever 50-state crackdown onidrivers.who don't buckle u rand don't'buckle up children. From May 21 through Memorial;Day,our officers will sharply /13! nsiify enforcement of adult seat belt and child passenger laws,as part of the Operation ARC'Mobilfzation: 0 II i During this enforcement blitz, of€icrs will conduct saturation'patrols to look for and ticket drivers statewide who knowingly violate isdat belt laws, It will be zeal tolerance. Most adults know that seat belts sate lives The facts speak for themselves. But the strong risk of serious injury or death is not enougi to persuade some adults tp.do the right thing. The only proven way to motivate these people is to increase the'possibility that,they'll get a ticket and be fined. That's why we participate'inthese crackdowns—because they work and save lives. II In California alone in.1999, 86.of 160 children who died in crashes were known to be unrestrained. Of the 2287 adults killed collisions in 1999, 908 were knovvh to be unrestrained. It's unclear if the person was restrained in an additional 306 deaths. Nearly half of the children and adults who die unrestrained in crashes would'be alive today if they had been buckled in These are totally preventable deaths. 1 . Seat belt laws were,ehacted to save lives and should be stnctly!enforced.

SUBJECT: Colored Water Complaints and Maintaining Distribution - System Water Quality We received 32 colored water complaints in calendar year 2000. The primary reason for colored water complaints is that-our ground water contains dissolved iron. The amount of iron is within acceptable limits but it does tend to oxidize inthe system as a reaction to the chlorine • residual. The oxidized iron (rust) precipitates out and lays;in the bottom of the larger water mains where water velocities are low. When the velocitysuddenlyincreases due to a fire, filling a street sweeper or a abrupt increase in temperature and water use the movement of the water picks up the rust and colors the water fora several hours. Generally we will flush the area when we get a colored water complaint. Groundwater is generally high in dissolved mineral's in comparison to surface water. The water master plan update will;Iook at well head treatment optionsiand.costs to remove these minerals. Presently well water costs less than half of what the SCWA water does. Treatment will be expensive mainly because wells have to be spread out so,they won't pump each other dry. The SCWA crater is essentially surface water and low in minerals. With restrictions to the SCWA system we have agreed to produce well water for five years. Our mix of source water (3.6 billion gallons per year) is now about:10% groundwater and 90% SCWA water. The City wells we are operating are all located on the east side of town in Zone 4 and Zone 1. During the winter months we routinely flush water mains to maintain water quality and to manage the number of colored water complaints. While this is contraryEto water conservation measures it is necessary to proper operation of the system. Please read the attached chapter from the American Water Works Association on the subject. The trick is to flush just enough to keep the complaints down to a reasonable level: This last winter we flushed'all Of Zone-4 and'a small area of Zone 1. The complaints are coming from the area of Zone 1 that we didn't get to before the weather changed. (We don't do routine flushing in the ;;:miner). This area will be a priority this next winter. We do posta sign at the hydrant we arc running telling people what we are doing and • most understand the need. • s:\sulr folders\wr&c se memos\200 rse wtr qualcanlamt.doc . . • - " • x'• - Memorandum —con't May 16, 2001 • Page 2 • Lastcalendar year our flushing records indicate we ran 5 million gallons of water to waste or about a tenth of one percent of our annual water use We also de-chlorinate the water before it enters the storm drain:system so there is no-impact to the receiving waters. Some day we may want to send it to the sewer plant for reuse. We have thought about flushing into a water truck but the truck would be full in 3 minutes and most pulls run 30 minutes or more Once we get the water stirred up you have to keep it going until-it clears. Flushing at night is another option but community education I think is better than trying to hide the fact that maintaining distribution - system water quality is part of doing business" We have a list of web sites that have good content and recommend we add a section on the subject before the next cycle" Here are a few samples: http://ci"monterey-park"ca"us/archive/1997/may/waterhtml http:://www.city.norfolk"va"us/http://www6"dwp.ci.Ia"ca.us/water/quality/flushingf" If you need more information give me wean.at 778-4560. • • • • • • • • • • • III - Distribution Mt • Flushing and C1ea-nlr� - - • This section will review the various aspects of flushing and cleaning of distribution mains. Included.are methods, procedures, monitoring and evaluation,,"manpower,and.equipment, requirements,safety aspects, system design,and operational considerations.This section"is limited in scope to flushing mains and cleaning mains with'soft swabs or pigs for improving water quality. These operations may also result in hydraulic improvements in the system. However, in many situations these operations will provide only temporary benefits. More extensive mechanical cleaning and relining of mains is a better approach to imoroving system hydraulics and will also result in water quality improvements:These more complex operations,however, are•bey'ond the scope of this section.,'combined program of flushing and rehabilitation(relining)may provide a more permanent solution to some water quality and hydraulic problems with less inconvenience to:customers in the long run than repeated swabbing on pigging., DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS Good design practice•will,reduce:.the likelihood of contamination in'distribution mains and benefit main flushing and cleaning program's. Following are points to consider when designing a flushing pro ram:r., °., nin g • locate blowoff valves at low points and dead ends in the grid to permit removal of sediment (See Appendix B for apical blowoff installations.), • locate hydrants,blowoffs,and valves'so that flushing or repair will cause a minimum • of disruption in customerservi :e, • design the distribution system with sufficient hydraulic capacity so that mains will be flushed at adequate velocities and for long enough periods without lowering system 37 • '38' DISTRIBUTION-SYSTEM WATER QUALITY c • pressures below 20 psi (140 kPa). Use a minimum flushing velocity of 2.5 fps (0:75'tn/s)>A velocity of 50 fps(1.5 m/s)is desirable,and'a.velocity of l2 fps(3.6 m/s) may be needed to remove sand from river undercrossirigs and other,subsurface inverts. (Such undercrossings,or inverts:may'have'to'be removed from service for cleaning,), • design the system so that; ire-fighting capability ls not impacted, • make asafe means'available for disposing:'flushingwater. • SYSTEM OPERATIONAL .;PRACTICES The following practices will atdthe water utility's main flushing and;cleaning,programs: I. Routinely and systematically.flush and/or clean all dead-endmains and other mains subject to sediment deposition.,Keep a record of complaints,to help locate mains that require • routine flushing. Conduct flushing in anticipation of complaints,not just after they occur.In some cases, routine flushing of all mains may be required. 2. Routinely and systematically inspect and test all hydrants and valves in the system, normally once a year. Testing hydrants may require coordination with the local fire • department. 3. Record the condition of mains,valves,and other fittings removed from the system to identify causes of failure. 4. Keep records and/or maps showing the date and location of all pressure and water . quality complaints. FLUSHING MAINS Mains should be routinely flushed to remove :impurities as they accumulate in the distribution system,clean newly installed and repaired mains prior to and after disinfection, ats}.remove impurities that cause complaints or are considered haa;dous to public health. The procedures described here, which apply to routine flushing; generally apply to nonroutine flushingas=well. Never consider flushing the only solution to water quality problems found in the distribution system. The proper design and operation of distribution facilities and the operation of an effective backflow prevention program should also be used to maintain water quality. While quality control,is the primary purpose offlushing, careful observation of I ' system hydraulics during flushing may indicate the location of mains with inadequate capacity, undiscovered restrictions, or dosed or partially closed valves. Routine Flushing .Program Devising an efficient flushing'program requires considerable effort. Accurate records must be kept and examined with care and imagination. Keep,a record of all complaints.Plot water quality complaints on 'a distribution map, distinguishing between different types of • complaints —sand in water, turbid and discolored water,.taste and odor. Figure III-1 is a sample complaintfotm. If dirty-water complaints are received on a dead-end'tnain;'place that main on a routine flushing schedule; for example, once a month. Keep a flushing record,,including the time it - takes the water to clear. In this example,assume that after a few months the water clears in 6.s. This•-indicates that flushing should be less frequent and that the main be put on a semiannual-flushing schedule. If, after four months, another complaint is received,put the • main on a quarterly flushing schedule. . When flushing in response to a complaint of dirty or discolored water,it may be best to flush at a very low velocity.This will bleed the dirty water from the affected main.Flushing 1 . . ._ FLUSHING AND CLEANING �39 A T x 4 : tk5 .��ll U l - rtt c-. r• . i w F r :� , 8teita la -r.-"•k .il 11, P'� , ' x�9 es4k.-.:�4'1M - ail t( 3 "Z °t!(° ,, ,r --- .a,w _, -.I., � r� 'a'il�l, tl a x.. 1 IT."'�!'

Flushing may then have to'be postponed until.!a,thorough system flushing can be arranged. Flush'often enough to anticipate complaints but conserve water;energy,and manpower by flushing no more'than necessary. Do not be surprised if one state agency requests you to flush while another requests that you•start.an aggressive water conservation plan. If you do not have records of water duality complaints and main flushing operations,it will be difficult to show the need to flush. A request by,a regulatory agency to routinely flush when you believe iris nor necessary should be appealed.Provide data that adequately shows there is no need for'routine flushing. During a drought when water conservation is essential,the,public's awareness of water wastage is heightened,and it may be necessary to justify or explain flushing operations to the public. It may be necessary td eliminate flushing except-under special.conditions when drinking water standards,may be violated if flushing'is not carried out When setting up a.flushing program„remember that heavier:sediments accumulate in larger mains and form small mounds similar.to the ripples,on-the bottom of a sandy stream. When one Of these mounds.forms•at a tee with a smaller main and there is flow into the smaller main,the mound is disrupted:-Most of thesandiis;thensuspended'in"the water in the v ' . . . __ smaller main. Water',qualir proble:ns will originate in the small mains, but flushing them will,often be a•waste; Your customers have already flushed them for you. A point to consider when establishing your flushing programs when to perform the flushing,operation. Flushing at night has several advantages. Water demands are lower at night. and flushing at this time will not lower residual pressures in the system as much as � flushing during the day. Day flushing may,lower'distribution reservoir lecels, reducing'the 40 DISTRIBUTION-SYSTEM WATER QUALITY fire-fighting reserve. Flushing at night while reservoirs are; filling will minimize this problem. Flushing will probably be safer with the reduced traffic at night. While the flushing of foul water from the system at night will be kept,out-Of the-public-eye, it will be moredifficult for crews,to identify discolored water by artificial light,It may also be difficult to see where the water drains to. Pay attention to where'flushing water discharges. Prevent the water from flooding lawns,basements,and underground utility facilities,such as telephone and electrical vaults. Do not discharge heavily contaminated water into sensitive'aquatic environments.Flushing water may require dechlorination to protect aquatic life in natural' streams. For dechlorinating procedures,see the section entitled"Operating Procedures."In some cases, water may have to beflushed into tanker trucks. A final point to consider'.is the effect fire department flow tests may have on water quality. Avoid trouble by offering to cooperate with the fire department and perhaps combine your flushing'program with their hydrant testing program. Public Relations Public awareness of a flushing program and its purpose can be helpful.However,the public may consider flushing wasteful, particularly during dry periods if the process is not explained to them. The water utility's public image.may suffer, especially if it has an active water conservation program. Prepare anyone engaged in flushing to, answer waste complaints or questions. Flushing of mains may also cause temporary delivery of dirty water to local consumers. This may result in complaints if consumers are not aware; of the flushing program. • Consequently; public should be notified of the purpose and of the temporary disc uptions main flushing may cause: Portable signs.can be set up,at flushing'sit_es,and utility business offices and local fire.;departments.can be notified prior'to-theflushing of specific areas. In addition, the news;media maybe willing to help notify thepublic. Operating Procedures Prepare and follow written procedures during the flushing operations. Following are suggested flushing procedures: 1. Review distribution maps and preplan an entire month's flushing.Divide this work into 5-day units for each week;Determine the initial clean source,of flushing water,sections of mains to be flushed at one time,ahe valves to be used in each case,and the order in which the sections will be flushed.-Starr at or near a source and Work so as not to disturb sediments in unflushedportions.of the system. If possible,schedule work so that each zone can be completed by the end of the day or so that a natural stopping point is reached.If this is not done, fire protection may be severely restricted. Ensure'that all flushing water used comes from areas previously cleaned or from mains large enough to resist sediments being stirred up by the flow.Keep the length of main being flushed as short as possible,especially on small pipe.This will minimize pressure losses in the system and the length of time each customer maybe delivered dirty water. - • 2 Assure that you have-an.adequate.amount•of flushing water at sufficieiiilihigh- pressures and thai you can dispose of the water safely.The rate of flow required to produce a ve ocity of 2:5 fps (0.75 m/s) in pipes of various diameters'is shown in Table III-1. A flushing velocity as high as 12;fps (3.6 m/s) may be needed to remove sand from river undercrossings. Do not flush large main supplied by asinglesmaller main; the volume available is usually inadequate for flushing. Hydrant pressure,or.Pitot gauges are useful in determining flushing rates. Figure III-2 includes flushing rate and velocity-formulas to be used when determining flushing rates.

NotifytheTollowing prior to flushing: • local water,utility business office and fire department, • other utilities, such;;as gas, electric, and telephone companies, who may have - underground facilities in the area„ • • those customers who may be inconvenienced by reduced pressure or dirty water, including — food-service establishments; — hospitals, nursing'hoines, and other,health-facilities; — customers'with special medical•needs, such as home dialysis: 4. Isolate from the system the section to be flushed. Close valves slowly to prevent water hammer. 5. Open the fire hydrant or'blowoff valve slowly until the desired flow rate is obtained. When flushing from a dry-barrel fire hydrant,use the gate upstream of the hydrant for throttling purposes. Open;the hydrant valve fully'to prevent water from escaping into the ground through the'fire.hydrant barrel drain.. 6. Direct flushing water,away from traffic,pedestrians,and private land. Ensure that flushing water drains to an appropriate storm sewer or watercourse without causing excessive flooding of streets,underground utility vaults,or private property;the utility may be held responsiblefor any accidents or damage related to the-released water. 7. Prevent heavily contaminated water from discharging to sensitive natural watercourses. Check with the local sewer department for conditions of disposal to the sanitary sewer. If sewer disposal is unavailable, flushing into .a tanker'truck may be necessary. • 8. Dechlorinate'waters discharging to sensitive natural streams: Following are the steps of dechlorination: ' • a. Estimate the rate of flushing.This may be estimated from previous hydrant flow tests or flushing data If no data is av-;:Taable,open flushing valve just long enough to take a Pitot gauge measurement: Calculate the flushing rate using the formula given in Figure III-2 (page 41). - b. Determine the chlorine.residual in the main using a'suitable field test kit. c. Prepare a dechlorinaiing agent solution to be pumped into the flushing discharge using a positive displacement chemical feed pump. Amounts of various dechlorinating.agents:required to neutralize chlorine are given in Table III-2 (page 41). Sample calculations for a dechlorination example are summarized in Figure 111-3. d.d. Simultaneously flush main and pump dechlorinating agent into the discharge. 9. Check system pressure at a nearby hose bibb.If pressure is less than 20;psi(140 kPa), throttle the flow through the hydrant. When possible,check system pressures in higher or remote areas of the pressure zone to ensure that pressures do not drop below 20 psi(140 kPa). This may necessitate a two-man crew-with radios. 10. Record the date, time, location, pressure zone, size and length of main; and estimate the flushing flow rate and velocity,and time required.to clear.Take samples noting the water's odor,color, turbidity, and the presence of any visible'objetts or organisms. See Figure 111-2 for a sample flushing log sheet. . I I. When the flushing water is clear, close the hydrant or_blowoff valves slowly::,,_, v , 12. -Immediately mark closed valves on a map and erase the marks when the valves are reopened. Do not depend on your memory. If, at the end of a day 's work, valves normally open-are closed alert the fire department. 13. Proceed to the next section to be flushed and repeat these.procedures.Figures III-4 • through III-11 depict some of the primary activities of a main flushing operation.

The State of California is facing a shortage;in energy generation during the summer months of 2001, To help reduce demand on the electric.;grid, the California Independent System Operator (ISO) is •ffering large electricity" users, including the Sonoma County Water Agency (Agency), an opportunity to 4e paid to reduce demand during peak use periods during the months of June, July, August, and September. This Program:isknown as`the Summer 2001 Demand Relief Program (DRP). The DRP offers $20,000 per megawatt of committed demand reduction as Monthly Capacity Payment for each of the four months of the program, It requires that the participant bid,in an amount of energy it can reduce during a three-hour curtailment period. Curtailment orders will be issued when the ISO forecasts total system reserves to be less than 5% of total system generation needed, but can only be requested of a participant four times during any one of the four months and a maximum of seven times during the entire program. The participant will have •15 minutes to reduce demand. The Agency's back-up generators; which are used to operate collectors at the Wohler and Mirabel pumping facilities during power failures„ can also be used during curtailment orders to continue supplying water if demand on the water transmission system;requires. The DRP has no penalty for non-performance. However, the payment will be reduced by the percentage of the bid amount not reduced during a curtailment order. The ISO will also pay the participant $350 per megawatt-hour (MWh) for actual energy curtailed during a curtailment order. It is estimated that the cost of energy during the ISO's curtailment orders will be $370/MWh. The cost or running back-up generation during curtailment orders is approximately $120/MWh, i.e., $250/MWh less than the ISO cost. With a payment of'$350/MWh from the ISO, the net benefit to the Agency would be approximately $600/MWh ($250 plus$350). The Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) is sponsoring the Ancillary Services Coalition (ASC) to assist water agencies in participating in the DRP. ASC' will act as the liaison between the participant and the ISO, coordinating -the, bidding, collecting ,data,. monitoring performance and performing payment remittance functions for the program: As compensation fortheir-services, the ASC will receive $5,000 of the $20,000 per megawatt (MW) paid by the ISO for committed demand reduction, providing a net;payment'of $15,000 per MW to the Agency, This would be in addition to the net benefit of $600/MWh indicated above. The Agency is proposing' to commit four MW reduction per month. The Agency desires to participate in the DRP in order to reduce demand on the electric grid and offset the higher cost of summer on-peak power with the revenue from the program.

At that time we explained to you that the Petaluma Aqueduct is vulnerable to mechanical„electrical,and structural outages. Also at that time, you directed the General Manager/Chief Engineer to evaluate the potential to install auxiliary power at Ely Booster Station to protect against • power outages. Agency staff has evaluated the potential to provide auxiliary power'atthe Ely Booster Station and has determined that providing auxiliary power is feasible, but it cannot be:provided'this summer. Because Ely Booster Station is in a rotating outage block, Ely Booster'Station`will be subject to rolling blackouts and may be "blacked out” frequently this summer. The frequency and duration of these outages is unkmown at this time. Due to concerns over health, safety,,:and emergency response; Agency staff intends to make a request of PG&E to have the Ely Booster Station exempted from rotating outages. We do`not.know what the outcome of this request will be, but feel we can make a fairly strong case that the Ely Booster Station is a:critical facility that should be exempted from power outages. • Agency staff will also continue to work on completing-a project to install auxiliary power at the Ely Booster Station. This work will include completing an environmental analysis, acquiring the necessary right-of-way, completing an engineered design, and constructing the project. If you have any questions about this information,please let me know. Ran D. Poole, PPE. General Manager/Chief Engineer c Watc pntractois t?
