SUMMARY
Implementation of the City’s Recycled Water Project is well underway and recycled water deliveries are scheduled to begin in spring 2020. In addition to construction of a treatment facility, storage tank, pump station, and distribution pipelines, the Recycled Water Project includes the permitting, design and construction of irrigation system retrofits necessary to convert thirty-one customer sites from the City’s potable drinking water system to the newly constructed recycled water distribution system. This specialized work requires extensive knowledge and experience with recycled water regulations and customer irrigation systems. On March 20, 2017, the City and HydroScience, Inc. (HydroScience) entered into a professional services agreement (PSA) for HydroScience to provide engineering, design, and construction support services to retrofit customer sites to use recycled water. Staff is requesting Council approval to increase the contract amount with HydroScience by $50,000 to a not to exceed amount of $1,028,000, to provide additional recycled water support services.
