TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: Jill R. Ingram, Acting City Manager
FROM: Sean Crumby P.E., Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH
CIVILTEC ENGINEERING INC. FOR SANITARY
SEWER PIPELINE DESIGN PROJECT NUMBER
SS0901 AND WITH AKM CONSULTING ENGINEERS
FOR SANITARY SEWER PUMP STATION
IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT NUMBER SS0901
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The City Council is asked to:
• Adopt Resolution No. 6135 approving a professional services agreement
with Civiltec Engineering Inc. for $186,986 to prepare design of Sanitary
Sewer Pipelines, Project No. SS0901.
• Adopt Resolution No. 6136 approving a professional services agreement
with AKM Consulting Engineers for $489,506 to prepare the plans,
specifications, and cost estimates for the Sanitary Sewer Pump Station
Improvements, Project No. SS0901.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:
On August 08, 2005 The City Council adopted the Sewer System Master Plan
Update. This document identified approximately $14.9 million in needed capital
improvements to the City's Sanitary Sewer System. The Sewer Capital
Improvement Program includes; the upsizing of pipes to increase the capacity,
replacement of cracked deteriorated pipes, installation of an internal liner for pipe
rehabilitation, and reconstruction of pump stations. The City adjusted sewer
rates and progressed on an annual basis to rehabilitate these deficiencies on the
highest priority basis.
At the July 14, 2008 City Council Meeting, Council authorized staff to pursue the
State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan administered through the State Water
Agenda Item K
Page 2
Resource Control Board for the Sewer Capital Improvement Program. This loan
is administered at a low interest rate (typically 1 -2.5 %) and will allow the City to
expedite the remainder of the projects identified within the Sewer System Master
Plan Update (2005).
The loan is now approved. Two projects are near ready and will begin shortly.
Those two projects are the Ocean Avenue Alley Sewer Rehabilitation and the
College Park East Sewer Rehabilitation.
On November 8, 2010 the City Council approved a Request for Proposals and
authorized solicitation for proposals to prepare construction documents for the
remaining Capital Improvements identified within the Sewer System Master Plan
adopted in 2005.
On December 23, 2010 staff received five (5) proposals from AKM Engineers,
Civiltec Engineering Inc, Harris and Associates, Wildan Engineering and
Tetratech. The scope of work includes preparing plans and specifications to
fully reconstruct the Pier Sewer Pump Station, 8 Street Sewer Pump Station
and rehabilitate various sewer pipes in Old Town, Bridgeport, Hill, Marina and the
Cove.
A panel reviewed the proposals and decided that the most efficient and effective
way to design this project, for the best price, is to select one consultant to design
the pump stations and one consultant to design the pipeline work. After careful
consideration of the proposals, staff selected Civiltec Engineering Inc. as the
most qualified firm with the best understanding to design the Sanitary Sewer
Pipeline Designs, and AKM Consulting Engineers to design the Sanitary Sewer
Pump Station Improvements Project Number SS0901. Both have completed
numerous sewer design projects for both the City of Seal Beach and other
jurisdictions with great success. They have proven track records of professional
work and over the years have provided quality work.
The fee from Civiltec Engineering Inc. to perform design services to prepare
plans and specifications for the Sanitary Sewer Pipelines is $186,986. The fee
from AKM Consulting Engineers to perform design services to prepare plans and
specifications for the Sanitary Sewer Pump Station Improvements is $489,506.
Both of these fee proposals are appropriate for the services rendered.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The Sanitary Sewer Pipeline Project No. SS0901 and the Sanitary Sewer Pump
Station Improvements Project No. SS0901 will comply with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Page 3
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funds have been approved in the 2010 -2011 Fiscal Year Budget in the amount
of $2,262,900 for Sewer System Improvements Identified in the 2005 Sewer
Master Plan Update.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council:
• Adopt Resolution No. 6135 approving a professional services agreement
with Civiltec Engineering Inc. for $186,986 to prepare design of Sanitary
Sewer Pipeline Designs, Project No. SS0901.
• Adopt Resolution No. 6136 approving a professional services agreement
with AKM Consulting Engineers for $489,506 to prepare the plans,
specifications, and cost estimates for the Sanitary Sewer Pump Station
Improvements, Project No. SS0901.

Subject: Proposal to Provide Professional Engineering Services for the City of Seal Beach
Sanitary Sewer Pipeline and Pump Station Improvement Project ##SS0901
Dear Mr. Ho:
Civiltec engineering, inc. (Civiltec) is pleased to present our Qualifications and Proposal to
provide Professional Civil Engineering Services to design the improvements for the Pier and 8
■ Street pump stations, and to improve via full reconstruction or pipeline relining deficient sewer
pipelines and forcemains. Civiltec has a wealth of experience and a history of successful design
of engineering projects for wastewater and sanitary sewer collection projects. Civiltec's
experience includes completing lift station design, preparing technical evaluations, preparing
engineering reports, and designing new wastewater facilities. Civiltec routinely works well with
our clients and other consultant team members in the course of efficiently completing projects,
and has a proven successful relationship with the members of our team proposed herein. Civiltec
has no potential conflicts of interest in performing these services for the City of Seal Beach and
appreciate the opportunity to present our qualifications to the City.
The City is proposing to construct a new s 8 Street pump station that will replace the existing
wet/well dry well pump station currently located in the beach parking lot at the end of 8 street.
The 8 street pump station will be configured with a wet well and dry well with dry -pit
submersible pumps within the drywell. The pump station collects gravity flow from a strip of
residential homes south of Ocean Avenue and forcemain flow from the 1 Street and Pier pump
stations. Consideration of these flows along with the capacity of the 1 and Pier pump stations
will be considered in the final sizing of the 8 Street pump station. Wet well size will be
optimized to anticipate and to a certain extent equalize flow from the gravity and pressure
systems to ensure appropriate cycling of pumps and to limit the detention time within the wet
well thus mitigating against odor generation. The station should be configured so that mixing of
the wet well will be promoted through a cascading effect from the influent pipelines into the wet
well, if this cannot reasonably be achieved a mixer of adequate size and strength will be included
• in the design to promote mixing. Civiltec will design the electrical improvements to house a
permanent standby generator and electrical equipment above grade to promote ease of access and

will be located within close proximity to the pump station. A new forcemain will be design
from the discharge of the new pump station to the intersection of 8th Street and Ocean Avenue.
The Pier pump station is in a location that. is difficult to access and does not promote safe
maintenance or operating conditions. The City desires to improve accessibility to the pumps
which are currently hard flanged to the discharge head and provide a means for grease
interception to limit impact from grease on the pump and forcemain operations. A new wet well
and pumping system along with controls will be designed to replace the existing system. The
Pier pump station is connected to the underside of the City Pier and services Ruby's restaurant.
Perform design of lining and spot repair improvements for approximately 20,000 I.f, of sewer
pipe. The majority of this design effort will include preparation of plans based on base maps
developed from existing City ROW, GIS and or Model data. Base maps will ultimately be
converted to a useful design platform or ACAD and this effort will only include develop of plan
view plans. Due to the straightforward nature of these improvements Civiltec anticipates that
spot repair and or relining design will be represented from this plan perspective. Necessary
research of public information, review of existing CCTV and field investigation will be
performed to quantify the desired work effort. Geotechnical or survey work will not be
performed for these areas. (.
Due to deterioration in the gravity mains it is anticipated that 5,000 I.f. of pipeline will need to be
completely reconstructed. Due to the proximity of the improvements to the Ocean and the
presence of high ground water, geotechnical investigation will be performed at 1,000 foot
intervals to determine the quality of the existing subsurface materials and to provide any
recommendations necessary for full reconstruction activities. Pipeline inverts and manhole rims
will be surveyed along with relevant above grade features from curb face to curb face.

0 Provide for pipe cleaning and flushing capabilities.
6 Provide design with necessary piping and valves for ultimate operation of the system.
6 Provide design to collect and deliver wastewater to the new pump station from the old
pump station.
b Provide site improvement grading and drainage design to accommodate access to the new
generator building and wet well. •
0 Design the forcemain from the Pump Station
0 Design of an Automatic Transfer Switch tied to a new permanent standby generator.
Phase I Preliminary Design
A. Arrange and conduct a workshop with the City and the Civiltec Project Team to formalize
design criteria, discuss schedules and obtain any data, CAD files, plans or documents that
the City may have in its possession relative to the Project. Provide meeting minutes and
action items.
B. Civiltec has and will thoroughly review the Sewer Master Plan including the video logs.
We will research the locations of all existing utilities such as sewer, water, gas, storm
drains, electric, telephone and cable. We will copy the City all utility company
correspondence. We will ask that the City mark USA for the sewer alignments to assist
with field identifying existing utilities.
C. Civiltec will send survey crews into the field to gather data to supplement the City's
existing aerial mapping. We will survey all existing planimetric data such as valves,
utility boxes, power poles, utility markings, etc. along each sewer line alignment slated
for full reconstruction and perform general survey at the 8th Street Pump station site. The
width of the surveyed corridor will be the approximate width of the existing street rights

of way from Curb to Curb, with final width agreed upon by the City. We will measure
existing sewer manhole top and invert elevations (in and out) to confirm as -built
characteristics of all manholes in the project alignments slated for full reconstruction.
D. We will compile a project base map including all found utility data, right of way and
easement information, existing lot line stub -outs, existing mapping, and supplemental
field survey data.
E. We will review the proposed improvements in relation to the project base map to
determine to best alternatives for the sewer line repairs or upgrades. Methods may
include cured in place pipe (CIPP) relining, pipe bursting, bypass lines, repair couplings,
or complete replacement of sections of pipe. We will verify all required utility clearances
for pipe upgrades and determine if utility relocations or sewer main line alignment
changes are needed. We will take into consideration locations and characteristics of
existing service connections, and the impact of each alternative on the respective
property owner.
F. Proposed Geoteclnical Scope Of Work
Subsurface exploration will be focused on the proposed 8 street pump station area and at
�. every 1,000 foot interval along the 5,000 foot length of full sewer Iine reconstruction
work activities. We propose to perform borings specific to each site, geotechnical
laboratory testing, geotechnical engineering analyses and report preparation, as described
in the following subsections:
Background Data
We will collect and review available geotechnical reports, maps, plans, aerial
photographs and other pertinent data for this project, from the City and/or other readily
available sources. We will also interact with Civiltec to understand proposed structural
loads, allowable differential settlements and other soil/structure interaction criteria.
Field Exploration
Before we begin fieldwork, we will mark our proposed exploration locations and notify
the Agency and Underground Service Alert (USA), so that known underground utilities
can be identified. However, it is unlikely that USA will be helpful within this secure
plant. Therefore, we will rely on as -built utility plans provided by the City, to avoid
existing piping, other buried conduits and structures. We are not responsible for damage
to unidentified utilities. We assume permits will not be required while drilling. For the
purposes of this proposal, we assuune the site is accessible for a truck- mounted hollow -
stem/rotary wash drill rig.

We will obtain relatively undisturbed driven ring -lines and /or Shelby Tube samples,
Standard Penetration Tests (SPTs) and bulk soil samples from our borings for visual
classification and geotechnical laboratory testing.
Obtain an encroachment and monitoring permit from the City of Seal Beach and a well
installation permit from the Orange County Health Agency (OCHA).
Leighton will perform subsurface exploration consisting of the excavation and logging
small- diameter borings. Three borings will be excavated to a depth of up to
approximately 20 feet. Within the three deeper borings, a groundwater monitoring well
will be installed at appropriate locations along the sewer line alignments. Standard well
casing equipment for groundwater monitoring (2 -inch PVC pipe) will be used and a
traffic rated well cover will be installed. The remaining borings will be drilled to a depth
of approximately 5 feet. The purpose of these two borings will be to observe the
pavement section, subsurface conditions and obtain bulk samples for laboratory testing.
Identification, handling and treatment of hazardous materials are beyond the scope of our
geotechnical engineering services. If such materials are encountered, we will notify the ( ;
City immediately, and a proposal for handling of such materials will be submitted, if
requested.
Geotec /anical Laboratory Testing
We will conduct geotechnical testing on the sampled earth materials, in our in -house
laboratory, for soil classification and engineering properties. This testing will include
1) moisture contents and dry densities, 2) organic content (loss -on- ignition), 3) sieve and
hydrometer analyses, 4) Atterberg Limits, 5) direct shear strength, 6) Expansion Index,
7) consolidation, and other tests as necessary for analysis of settlement, bearing capacity,
and liquefaction potential. Atterberg Limits, sieve and hydrometer analyses are expected
to be required to refine the liquefaction evaluation, to reduce the potential for obtaining
erroneously conservative liquefaction predictions and settlement estimates.
Office Studies
We will review collected field and laboratory data and perform geotechnical- engineering
analyses to develop geotechnical recommendations for the proposed pump station and
replacement lift station discussed in the project description of this proposal. We will then
prepare a report that includes results of our exploration and testing, and our conclusions
and geotechnical recommendations for design of the proposed improvements. Our report
will be signed and stamped by a California licensed Geotechnical Engineer (GE), and (

laboratory test data in addition to the following:
6 Site Conditions: We will review and summarize surface, subsurface, groundwater
conditions (past and present), and the engineering properties of the earth materials
encountered during subsurface exploration.
6 Geologic Hazards: We will discuss potential site- specific geologic hazards at the
basin and lift station sites, including liquefaction, lateral spreading, differential
seismic compaction, fault rupture and ground shaking. Recommendations for soil
liquefaction mitigation will be addressed.

Building Code (IBC), adopted in the 2007 California Building Code (CBC), and in
accordance with ACI and /or AWWA criteria.
6 Foundations: Utilizing the data collected during our investigation, we will
recommend a suitable foundation type for the proposed improvements. We will also
provide foundation design criteria including recommendations for minimum size,
embedment depth, allowable vertical and lateral capacities, and expected total and
differential settlements. Consideration will be given to "net" values, with and without
hydrostatic pressures.
6 Vault/Well Subterranean Walls: We will present retaining wall design criteria,
including recommended foundation type, lateral earth pressures, including seismic
incremental loading, drainage and backfill recommendations,.
6 Bedding and Backfill: Leighton will present earthwork recommendations and guide
specifications, including recommendations for pipe bedding, materials for backfill,
and suitability of excavated materials for use as bedding and backfill.
6 Temporary Excavations: Utilizing data collected during our exploration, we will
present temporary excavation guidelines (construction site safety is the responsibility
of the contractor).
6 Uplift Resistance: In areas of shallow groundwater, Leighton will provide
geotechnical recommendations for design of pipeline uplift resistance.
b Lateral Earth Pressures: For design of manholes and thrust blocks, Leighton will
provide recommended lateral earth pressures (passive "bearing ") and friction
resistance (including soil angle of internal friction).

peak flow storage under emergency conditions. Siting of the facility was primarily dictated by the close
proximity of existing homes and the potential for damage by the proposed construction. A location which
provided increased construction area but required significant rerouting of the existing gravity sewer system
was ultimately chosen as the most suitable site for the project. The project design included two 15 hp 850

forcemain which connected to the existing forcemain under Newport Bay at the existing sea wall; a triplex
control system utilizing an ultrasonic device for level sensing; solid state starters; and a telemetry system
which interfaced with the City's SCADA system.
The design required an extensive documentation and monitoring program to be developed to document the
conditions of existing homes and to alert the City to any ground subsidence which may be occurring during
construction. Over 100 homes were targeted for video taping and written documentation of their condition.
The monitoring program included inclinometers, ground water wells, seismograph monitoring during sheet pile
installation, and survey settlement points on homes and sidewalks.
Extensive coordination with the Homeowner's Association was continued through the design, with special
provisions included in the specification to restrict construction hours, noise, and stockpiling of equipment as
well as prohibiting work during special days of celebration such as the Christmas Boat Parade. Construction
support services included shop drawing review, response to Requests for Clarification, field reviews and
meetings, and preparation of as -built drawings. (Construction Completed: 1998; Final Construction Cost:

well at a grated mezzanine level approximately 10 -feet above the dry well floor. A 300 amp electrical service
meter is located in a weatherproof enclosure, above -grade directly adjacent to the pump station entry hatch.
The pump station services a mixture of commercial, industrial, and residential land uses. The Citys Master
Plan estimated the ultimate peak wet weather flow to the station at 1210 gpm, including 350 gpm from Pump
Station No. 9, which discharges directly to the facility. Pump Station No. 9, along with a laundry located in
close proximity, contribute to the high peak flows which are experienced at the station.
The pump station had the following problems which prompted the City to undertake its rehabilitation:
• The equipment was old, not dependable and spare parts were difficult to find for repair and maintenance.
• During shutdowns, the wet well filled and sewage overflowed into the dry well.
• The wet well was of inadequate volume to allow sufficient response time, prior to overflowing, in the event
of a failure. While the mechanical equipment had been reliable, the area is prone to frequent disruptions
in commercial power service. To provide response time during such an outage, the City desired to
enlarge the wet well, or locating a standby diesel generator at the site.
AKM prepared a preliminary design report, follow up final design, and construction support services for the
. project. The final design consisted of constructing a parallel supplemental 40,000 gallon wet well to provide
one -hour peak flow storage, a standby emergency generator, and upgrading of the pumps, motors, piping,
valving, wet well, and the drywell.

study which concluded that the capacity of the new station could be significantly reduced from 2,000 -gpm to
500 -gpm.
Final plans for the facility included a new 500 -gpm, 10 -HP duplex submersible sewage lift station, 100 kW
natural gas emergency generator; new pump station controls, including a dialer system for notifying personnel
in the event of a failure; valve vault and piping; and a construction phasing plan which allowed the existing
pump station to remain in service until the new facility was completed and operationally tested. Emergency
storage for one hour of peak wet weather flow was provided to allow the City sufficient response time in case
( , ' of a mechanical failure.
AKM also provided construction management and inspection services throughout the construction: Iv,

SECTION 5 - PROJECT UNDERSTANDING / PROJECT APPROACH
A. Overview
As part of its ongoing Capital Improvement Program, the City of Seal Beach is proposing to upgrade its 8
Street and Pier Pump Stations. Both facilities were found to be deficient by the City's 2005 Master Plan, and
are the last of the City's sewage pumping plants to be rehabilitated (the other 5 facilities have been recently
upgraded).
The City Is also interested in repairing the remaining reaches of sewer in the Old Town, Marina Hill,
Bridgeport, and Marina Hill areas of the City, which were found by the 2005 Sewer Master Plan to be condition
( deficient. These projects are identified in the Master Plan as Priority No.'s 6 through 52, and have a total
estimated project cost of $8.4 million.
The City Is obtaining a low interest loan from the State Revolving Fund to construct the recommended
upgrades. As currently proposed, two sets of construction documents will be prepared; one for the 8 Street
and Pier Pump Station Improvements; and the second for the Sewer Rehabilitation work. It is also understood
that due to the expected size of the sewer rehabilitation program, it may be desirable to break up the
construction package into several smaller projects (such as a sewer lining project, spot repair project, and
sewer replacement project) to obtain better pricing from specialized contractors. Therefore, the construction
documents for this work must be put together so that it can be easily segregated if smaller contract packages
are desired.
This proposal has been developed to address the City's request for proposal dated November 16, 2010. Our
detailed understanding of the work is provided in the paragraphs below.

PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND CITY OF SEAL BEACH
PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901 DECEMBER 23, 2010
B, 8 Street Pump Station ( •
General
The existing 8 Street Pump Station Is located in the beach parking lot at the end of 8 Street. It was
originally constructed in the 1920's and is a wet welVdry well facility which incorporates two 7.5 HP ESSCO
recessed impeller pumps rated at 500 gpm each.
The pump station's service area covers the land uses south of Ocean Boulevard, including flows generated on
the Seal Beach Pier. Both the 1 Street Pump Station and Pier Pump Station discharge into its collection
system. The City's 2005 Sewer Master Plan estimated the peak flow to the station to be 360 gpm at ultimate
build -out. A study conducted by AKM in October of 2009 estimated the peak dry weather flow into the pump
station to be 82 gpm. It further determined the capacities of the existing pumps were 290 gpm and 180 gpm,
far less than their rated capacity. The study went on to recommend that the capacity of the new 8 Street
Pump Station be designed for 290 gpm and the size of a new forcemain be 6 inches.
The pump station is approximately 80 years old and is at the end of its useful life. The City would like to
replace this facility with a new pumping plant and forcemain, which meets current design standards and City
criteria, and is easier to operate and maintain.
Design Criteria
The new pump station will be designed to comply with current codes and regulations. Further, the pump
station design will also meet or exceed the criteria established in the City's 2005 Sewer Master Plan. A
summary of the anticipated criteria that will be utilized for the design of the pump station is listed below.
Pumps
• Provide a minimum of two pumps each sized for the peak wet weather flow conditions
• Minimum solids handling capacity equal to 4 inches
• Supply a spare pump and motor of the same type and size installed at the pump station
Wet Wells
• Sized to provide sufficient operational storage to limit pump cycling to less than 6 times per hour
• Provide sufficient storage under peak wet weather flow conditions to allow City crews time to respond to a
station failure
• Depth must be sufficient to accommodate relocation of the Gold Coast Sewer to the beach front.
- 24 - AKM Proposal No. 10-1102
CITY OF SEAL BEACH PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND
DECEMBER 23, 2010 PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901
Discharge Piping
• Minimum size equal of 4 inches — To prevent plugging with solids
• Flow velocity range shall be 3 -6 ft/sec — To maintain a self - cleansing condition in the pipe
• Provide a flowmeter and pressure gauge — For monitoring of the facility
• Pipe shall be ductile iron, lined with a ceramic /epoxy coating system (U.S. Pipe Protecto 401 or equal)
Ventilation
• Provide 30 air changes per hour in dry wells and vaults — To prevent dangerous accumulation of sewer
gases, prevent condensation, and provide a source of fresh air for workers.
Emergency Power
• Provide a permanent emergency natural gas generator, sized to start both pumps, and supply the
miscellaneous electrical loads with a voltage drop of no greater than 20 %.
Controls
• Provide City standard control panel manufactured by Murcal, with LCD display screen
• Level control system shall be an ultrasonic level transducer. A duty and backup controller will be provided.
A float system will also be installed to initiate a timed pump down of the wet well in the event of an
ultrasonic level control system or PLC failure.
SCADA
• A Bristol Babcock RTU shall be provided with a Spread Spectrum Radio for communications of status and
alarm signals with the SCADA base station at the Adolfo LoperYard.
Flood Protection
The existing and proposed 8 Street Pump Station are located in FEMA Flood Hazard Zone A -E. The base
flood elevation is listed as 13 feet above mean sea level on the Flood Insurance Rate Map. The existing
ground surface elevation in the area is 12 feet above mean seal level (AMSL).
Although the existing pump station has never been inundated by flood waters or storm surge, it is
recommended that the design of the new facility incorporate a pad elevation above this base flood elevation.
Pump Station Replacement Alternatives
The proposed location for the new pump station is directly to the north of the existing facility across the access
c ' road to the beach parking lot. The location is good in that It does not impact the views of existing homes,
there is a large area available to construct the facility, and it would require minimum re -rout! i LL t

sewers. Alternatives considered will therefore be limited to the type of pump station to be constructed: wet ('•
well / dry well or submersible. For each alternative, a new forcemain will be constructed to the alley north of
Ocean Avenue, where it will discharge into the existing sewer located in the alley,
Alternative 1 -- Construct a New Submersible Pump Station. Figures 1, 2 and 3 show a potential
submersible pump station alternative. It consists of an 8 -foot diameter wet well approximately 20 feet
deep and a 12' x 8' valve vault. Electrical equipment and an emergency generator would be located
above -grade In a small block building. As an alternative, this equipment could be located in outdoor
enclosures, with chain Zink fencing or a block wall securing the area. The existing pump station would be
demolished after the new facility is placed on -line.
Alternative 2 — Construct a New Wet Well / Dry Well Pump Station. Figures 3, 4 and 5 show a
potential wet well / dry well pump station. It consists of an 8' x 16' wet well, connected to a 20' x 16' dry
well. The dry well would include lighting, a ventilation system, and stairway access. Hatches would be
placed in the top floor of the dry well to facilitate removal of the pumps by a crane. A natural gas
generator and electrical equipment would be located in an above -grade building with an architectural
theme matching the surrounding buildings. Again, as an alternative, this equipment could be left outdoors
and secured by a chain fink fence or block wall. The existing pump station would be demolished after the
new facility is placed on -line.
it7 3 — Construct a New Submersible or Wet Well Dry Well Pump Station and Convert the
Existing Pump Station Structure to Emergency Storage. With this alternative, either a submersible or
wet well / dry well pump station would be constructed as described above, and the existing pump station
would be converted to an emergency storage wet well. The design would be such that the structure would
not begin to fill unless a high level condition occurred in the new pump station wet well. Feasibility of the
alternative is predicated upon a structural evaluation of the existing facility to determine if it can be safely
used for this purpose.
While other alternatives may exist for reutilizing the existing pump station structure, we do not recommend
anything that would require it to be anything more than a standby facility due to its extreme age. The
advantages, disadvantages, costs, and construction impacts of each alternative will be fully developed in a

CITY OF SEAL BEACH PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND
DECEMBER 23, 2010 PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901
PUMPING EQUIPMENT
There are three types of pumps commonly used In wastewater application that will be considered for the
project.
• Non -clog pumps incorporate impellers which are located directly in the flow path with large openings to
pass solid material. Non -clog pumps have efficiencies of approximately 50% to 70 %, but have reduced
solids handling capability. This type of pump is not recommended as they can be prone to clogging.
• Vortex pumps utilize impellers which are located completely out of the flow path. They therefore have
very good solids handling capability, but very low efficiencies (265% to 40 %).
• Screw pumps incorporate a screw type impeller located directly in the flow path. These pumps enjoy
high efficiencies of approximately 70% to 80% and have good solids handling capability. They are
however more expensive, and replacement impellers often require long lead times.
All pump alternatives will be thoroughly reviewed with the City prior to selecting the most appropriate design
for the application.
( Pumps selected for a submersible application will be equipped with a slide rail system to allow maintenance
personnel to remove and reinstall the pumps without entering the wet well.
Pumps used in a dry well application will incorporate submersible motors so the pump will continue to operate
if the dry well is flooded.
DISCHARGE VALVING AND PIPING
• Isolation valves shall be eccentric plug type with level actuators, or resilient wedge gate type with hand -
wheel actuators.
• Check valves shall be swing type with outside lever and spring.
• A magnet flow meter and pressure sensor will be provided on the discharge piping. These devices
shall be configured accordingly to communicate with the City's SCADA system.
• Discharge piping will incorporate a flanged connection to allow bypassing of the facility using a portable
pump.
EMERGENCY GENERATOR
The emergency generator will be sized to start and run 2 pumps in steps with no greater than a 20% voltage
drop. The unit will run on natural gas. AEll l

PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901 DECEMBER 23, 2010
"Low Battery', "Generator Run" and "Generator Fail" signals will be routed to the SCADA system RTU for i .
remote monitoring by the City.
WET WELL
New wet wells will be designed as reinforced concrete structures with T -lock lining. They will include a small
operational storage area to reduce odor problems and control solids accumulation. A larger emergency
storage area will also be included to provide the City response time to an emergency at the facility. The depth
of the wet well will be limited to 25 feet or less to allow cleaning by vactor trucks and to improve
constructability. Existing structures which are converted to wet wells will be Tined with 120 mils of an
epoxy /polyurethane coating system. The bottom will also be sloped to prevent the accumulation of solids.
•
CONTROL SYSTEM
A duplex pump control system will be provided for the pump station. In general, the control strategy will be to
start and stop each pump based upon a pre - programmed level, as measured by an ultrasonic level
transducer. If the lead pump fails or is unable to keep up with the influent flow, the lag pump will be called to
start. A float switch will be provided as a backup system in case of a failure of the level controller. Once .
( ; '
initiated by the float switch, both pumps will run for a pre - selected time period before they are shutdown. The
pump station will be capable of running in this mode indefinitely.
Control panels shall be designed to communicate fail conditions to an emergency telephone dialer that Is to be
provided as part of the project. "Pump Fail", "High Wet Well Level ", "Power Fail ", "Generator Fail" and
"Intrusion" signals will be furnished.
The control panel will also be configured to communicate with the City's SCADA system via Spread Spectrum
Radio. Status and alarm signals which will be provided will include:
• Pump Run, Fail • High Wet Well Level • Discharge Pressure • Generator Fad
■ Pump Seal Fail • Wet Well Level • Power Fail • Generator Low Fuel
• Pump High Motor Temp • Flow Rate • Intrusion • Generator Low Battery
• Generator Run
C. Sewer System Rehabilitation
The 2005 Sewer Master Plan Update evaluated all of the sewers in the City's collection system for capacity
and condition deficiencies. Capacity deficiencies were Identified using a sewer modeling program while
- 33 - AKM Proposal No. 10-1102
CITY OF SEAL BEACH PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND
DECEMBER 23, 2010 PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901
(" condition deficiencies were determined through review and assessment of CCTV inspections of the existing
sewer pipes. These CCTV inspections were performed between 2002 and 2004. The condition assessment
found 52 sewer segments to be deficient and recommended in most instances complete replacement of the
facility.
The City, In 2007, designed improvements to the first 5 projects in the condition deficient capital improvement
program. It was determined during this process that many of the facilities which were recommended by the
Master Plan for replacement could be satisfactorily repaired through the installation of a PVC liner.
The City Is now looking to complete the remainder of its condition deficiency Capital Improvement Program
(Projects 6 -52), which totals approximately 24,000 LF of sewer and 115 manholes. Based upon the
experience with the first year Capital Improvement Program, it Is believed that many of the projects identified
for total replacement can be satisfactorily repaired by installing a PVC liner, or performing a small spot repair.
The City has requested that each of the sewers identified in the Sewer Master Plan as "condition deficient" be
re- inspected utilizing CCTV so that the current condition of the facility can be assessed and more cost -
effective solutions implemented.
In general, pipes with cracks, minor offsets, deposits, root intrusion, and infiltration can be refurbished with a
PVC lining system. Broken pipe, or pipe with large offsets or obstructions may require a spot repair. Pipe
which is totally deteriorated, or has long sags can only be corrected by total replacement.
Because it Is currently unknown, we have assumed in our proposal that approximately 5000 LF of sewer will
require total replacement, necessitating detailed plan and profile construction drawings be prepared. Our
proposal is predicated on developing standard type details for any spot repairs needed, and an atlas type map
to identify locations for sewer lining projects.
D. Pier Pump Station
General,
The Pier Pump Station is located at the end of the Seal Beach Pier, under a loading ramp and door landing for
the Ruby's Restaurant.
The pump station consists of a small fiberglass tank which is strapped to the bottom of the pier deck. The
pump station includes two 120 gpm, 3 HP submersible pumps which discharge directly to the 8 Street Pump
Station through a 4 -inch forcemain. The facility only serves Ruby's and two public restrooms at the end of the
MUM Altvelft.

AKM Proposal No. 10-1102 - 34 - Eil ® El
PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND CITY OF SEAL BEACH
PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901 DECEMBER 23, 2010
pier. The Master Plan estimated average flows to the pump station at 0.86 gpm. Peak flows were estimated ( •
at 12 gpm.
The existing pump station is extremely difficult to access, which makes it difficult to maintain. Entry to the wet
well is through a small removable wood cover in the loading ramp landing above. The opening is too small to
provide direct access to the equipment. An operator must lay down on the landing deck and lean into the area
enclosed by the ramp and landing to access the pumps. Pumps can only be removed by unbolting a flange
located in the wet well, which is extremely difficult.
The wet well also accumulates a considerable amount of grease because Ruby's does not maintain a grease
removal device at its restaurant.
The City would like to improve the existing pump station by providing the following upgrades:
• Redesign access to the pump station wet well and equipment
• Replace the 20 year old fiberglass wet well with a new wet well designed with secondary containment
• Replace the existing pumps and vaiving
▪ Install a new pump control panel
• Install a new RTU at the site to communicate with the City's SCADA system
• Install a grease trap at the station
Access
Access to the pump station is best improved by relocating it out from underneath the door landing. An access
hatch could then be installed in the pier deck providing direct access to the wet well, valves, and pump
equipment.
if it is not possible to relocate the pump station, then a large stainless steel access hatch (4 x 4' or larger)
should be placed in the door landing above the pump station. This would allow an operator better access to
the wet well. During our inspection of the pier pump station, It appears much of the wood used to construct
the loading ramp and landing has rotted. It is therefore anticipated that this structure will need to be entirely
replaced when improvements to the Pier Pump Station are constructed.
Wet Well Replacement
Removal of the existing wet well will be difficult and will require that the restaurant and bathrooms be
shutdown while the work is occurring. It is anticipated that construction crews will need access under the pier (
- 35 - AKM Proposal No. 10 -1102
CITY OF SEAL BEACH PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND
DECEMBER 23, 2010 PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SSO901
( to remove the tank. A barge moored under the pier with a boom may be required for this access. It may also
be possible to utilize a bridge inspection boom, if the pier is capable of supporting the vehicle load.
The wet well replacement would consist of a stainless steel trough suspended from the top of the pier deck
with a fiberglass wet well located within. The trough would not only support the fiberglass wet well, but would
provide a means of secondary containment. Figure 6 shows the proposed concept.
Control Panel and RTU Replacement
A new Murcal pump control panel will be provided for the station. An RTU will also be installed at the site to
communicate alarms 'and signals to the City's SCADA station. We have included in our proposal a Radio
Survey to verify that communications are possible, and to determine the location and height of the antenna
which will be installed.
Grease Trap
Depending on the restaurant plumbing, a grease trap will be designed for the project. it is currently anticipated
that the grease trap could bp located in the enclosed area securing the electrical equipment next to the pump
station. However the final location will need to be approved by Ruby's and the City.
SECTION 6 - SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work is divided into three phases addressing the necessary elements for both the pump station
upgrades and the sewer system spot repairs. It Is anticipated that two separate sets of construction
documents will be developed for the two programs.
The first phase of work, Phase A "Completion of Preliminary Engineering ", will form the basis for the
subsequent design work, addressing and documenting all issues relevant to the project.
Phase B "Final Design Services, Construction Plans and Specifications ", is the actual preparation of
construction documents for each project. The final phase, Phase C "Construction Support ", outlines office
engineering and field support services that will be furnished during pump station and sewer construction.
Not shown in each phase of work, but included in the project scope are project management, meetings, and
coordination of work.
AKM Is prepared to implement the following scope of work for the Sanitary Sewer Pipeline and Pump Station
Improvement Project.

TASK A — PRELIMINARY DESIGN
In this Phase, we will retrieve and review existing information, develop design parameters, size equipment,
determine sewer system deficiencies, and identify construction phasing. It will become the basis for the work
to be completed under TASK 13, Final Construction Documents. The tasks identified for the Preliminary Design
Phase are as follows.
1. RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATION
A. Kick -Off Meeting
The project will commence with a kick -off meeting with the City. The purpose of the project and the
desired objectives will be discussed. The project schedule will be reviewed and lines of
communication will be established.
City staff will be interviewed to develop insight into the existing 8 Street Pump Station operation and
discuss preferences, if any, on layout valving, piping, pumps, controls, electrical, tetemetry and other
components. If any standardization is desired, its application to the project will be evaluated. Also
discussed will be the proposed CCTV sewer inspections, and proposed improvements to the pier
pump station.
AKM will prepare minutes summarizing the meeting discussions, and distribute the minutes to all
meeting participants.
8. Review Existing Documents
Existing facility plans, specifications, operational data, measurements, topographic maps,
geotechnical studies, easements and legal documents will be obtained. The information will be
completely reviewed and documented as appropriate.
C. Utility Coordination
As -built plans and /or atlas sheets for all the utilities in the vicinity of the 8 Street Pump Station and
Sewer Rehabilitation Projects will be obtained. This information will be plotted on base maps of the
work area, and confirmed through field Investigations.
Meetings will be held with the SCG and SCE service planners to obtain service conditions, and
( requirements for providing natural gas service (required for the generator) and electrical service to the
AKM Proposal No. 10 -1102 - 38 - a® ®®

PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901 DECEMBER 23, 2010
new 8 111 Street Pump Station. AKM will obtain an SCE and SCG service plan prior to completion of the
construction documents.
D. Site Surveys
Detailed ground surveys will be prepared in the area of the 8 Street Pump Station, and in 8 Street to
the alley north of Ocean Avenue to supplement the City's aerial topographic map. A second survey
will also be conducted on the pier for the purpose of creating a base map of the facilities constructed
in and around the pier pump station. The survey work will include:
o Surface features in the area of work
o Spot elevations at regular intervals
o Pick -up of USA markings
o Establishment of centerlines and right -of -way
o Dipping of existing sewer manholes
Field surveys will be conducted by C &V Consulting, under the direction of Mr. Charlie Priolo, as a
subconsultant to AKM.
E. Geotechnicallnvestlaation
A geotechnical study will be conducted at the 8 Street Pump Station site to determine soil conditions
and provide design recommendations for the wet well and building, as well as construction
recommendations for shoring and dewatering. It is anticipated that one boring will be drilled to a
minimum depth of 50 feet (deeper if necessary to locate an impervious layer below the site). This
boring will be cased and left in place to be used as a monitoring well during construction. The report
will address the following:
• Allowable vertical and lateral capacity of foundations
• The modulus of subgrade reaction at the mat slab level
• Total and differential settlements
• Geotechnical and seismic hazards including fault ground rupture, liquefaction, and seismic -
induced settlement
• Lateral (active, passive, and at rest) earth pressures for retaining structures
• Site- response coefficient and seismic design criteria per the California Building Code
• Pavement design recommendations
- 39 - AKM Proposal No. 10-1102
CITY OF SEAL BEACH PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND
DECEMBER 23, 2010 PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901
• Existing and historic high groundwater levels
• Shoring design recommendations, including driving of sheet piles near existing structures
• Dewatering recommendations, including water quality analysis
• Settiement, vibration, and groundwater monitoring program recommendations
Geotechnical services will be performed by Ninyo and Moore, under the direction of Mr. Jalal Vakili,
Ph.D., P.E., as a subconsultant to AKM.
F. SCADA System Analysis
A radio survey and path study will be prepared to determine if radio communications are possible from
the 8 Street and Pier Pump Stations. The study will also provide recommendations on radio
equipment and antenna height.
The SCADA system analysis will be prepared by Conceptual Designs, under the Direction of Mr. Vince
Cox, as a subconsultant to AKM.
G. CCTV Inspection of Condition Deficient Sewers
( ; CCTV inspections of each condition deficient sewer identified in the Sewer Master Plan (Priority
Projects 6 -52) will be conducted. The purpose of the CCTV inspections will be to confirm the existing
master plan recommendations, and to determine if additional degradation of the facility has occurred.
A total of 24,000 LF of sewer will be videoed.
Gravity Sewers
The inspections will provide a permanent record of the existing condition of the Citys gravity sewer
system, and will be used to develop the City's Sewer System Rehabilitation and Replacement Plan,
which is part of the Operation and Maintenance Program.
As a subconsultant to AKM, Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. will furnish all equipment,
materials, traffic control, and labor required to thoroughly clean and inspect 24,000 of gravity sewers
(6 -inch to 21 -inch diameter sewers) through closed circuit television (CCTV).
We propose to conduct all inspections in accordance with the National Association of Sewer System
Companies (NASSCO) Pipeline Assessment and Condition Program (PACP) standards. in recent
years, the PACP standards have become nationally recognized as the industry standard for evaluating
( !
the condition of sewer collection systems and manholes. All defects will be reported per the NASSCO
AKM Proposal No. 10 -1102 - 40 - ® � El el BSI
Aril= ENE
PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND CITY OF SEAL BEACH
PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901 DECEMBER 23, 2010
PACP standards. Conditions and defects will be located by footage and clock reference and will be
described using the PACP defect classification.
At the conclusion of the CCTV Inspection, all original written Togs and all original recording media, one
duplicate set copy, and one hard drive containing the entire inspection will become the property of the
City of Seal Beach. The written reports and recording media will meet all reporting requirements.
All inspections will include the upstream and downstream manhole identification numbers and pipe
numbers per the City's updated sewer GIS. This will ensure compatibility with the City's Sewer GIS as
well as the Wastewater Master Plan Report.
Sewer Manholes
A detailed manhole inspection will be conducted by an independent crew. Pole cameras and software
will capture high quality images of each of the manholes. Features such as frame, lid, chimney, and
wall will be documented and measured. Manhole inspection data will be recorded separately for each
manhole.
H. Flow Monitoring (Optional)
Flow estimates for the 8 111 Street Pump Station were contained in the Master Plan and in a subsequent •
study prepared by AKM in October of 2009. As an optional service, AKM will install flow monitoring
equipment in the 2 manholes upstream of the pump station to verify the estimates. Flow monitoring
will be conducted for a 2 -week period and will provide average, peak, and diurnal flow information.
Flow monitoring will be performed by ADS as a subconsultant to AKM.
2. PRELIMINARY DESIGN REPORT
A Preliminary Design Report will be prepared to identify the recommended upgrades for the 8 Street and
Pier Pump Stations, as well as the condition deficient sewer facilities. At a minimum, the following
elements will be evaluated and/or include in the report.
fr Street Pump Station
A. Determine Influent Flow
Influent flow will be determined from information in the Master Plan and the AKM 2009 Study. If the
optional flow monitoring task is implemented by the City, the influent flow determined from those
measurements will be used. Peak wet weather flows will be calculated using factors included in the
- 41 - AKM Proposal No. 10 -1102
CITY OF SEAL BEACH PROPOSAL FOR SANITARY SEWER PIPELINE AND
DECEMBER 23, 2010 PUMP STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #SS0901
City's Sewer Master Plan. The firm pumping capability will be selected to deliver the entire peak wet
weather flow.
B. Identify Upgrade Alternatives
Multiple alternatives will be identified for upgrading the pump station. Some of the potential
alternatives that may be considered were discussed in the Project Understanding section of this
proposal. Each alternative will be evaluated based upon level of service, cost, constructability,
maintenance, and impacts to the surrounding area. Concept drawings depicting each alternative will
also be prepared.
C. Equipment Sizing and Selection
Equipment alternatives will be identified and evaluated. Recommendations will be made based upon
economics, maintenance, reliability, and the City's familiarity or standardization with the specific item
of equipment.
Pump sizing will be based upon the flow studies conducted in Task 2A above, and headloss
( calculations through the pump station and forcemain.
Generator sizing will be based upon starting and running each pump in steps while limiting voltage
drop to no more than 20 %.
The wet well will be sized to limit pump cycling to no more than 6 starts per hour and to provide, at a
minimum, 30 minutes of storage under peak flow conditions. The depth of the wet well will be
minimized as much as possible to reduce shoring and dewatering requirements for construction. The
wet well will however be designed with sufficient depth so that the City may, in the future, reconstruct
the Gold Coast Sewer along the beach, removing it from its current alignment which is an easement
that is difficult to access.
D. Electrical Equipment and Generator Enclosure
Alternatives for housing the electrical equipment within a building, or within outdoor rated enclosures
will be evaluated. A concept plan will be developed for each alternative as will the proposed building
elevation and architectural theme.

E. Identify Code and Safety Requirements
Additional modifications required for access, health, and safety will be identified. Criteria for this
evaluation will be OSHA, NFPA 820, the National Electrical Code, Department of Health Services and
our experience with similar projects. Some of the items included in this assessment will be as follows:
• Ventilation equipment sized in conformance with NFPA 820 and City requirements
• Lighting
• Access hatches to facilitate pump removal
• Limit switches on exterior hatches and building doors for intrusion detection
F. Evaluate Structural Condition of Existing Pump Station Dry Well and Wet Well
The structural adequacy of the existing pump station structure must be evaluated to determine if the
structure can be safely converted into an emergency storage wet well.
AKM will conduct field inspections of the facility to evaluate the structure's existing condition.
Structural calculations will be prepared based upon the as -built drawings to determine the adequacy
of the structure, and /or structural upgrades that would be required.
G. Develop Preliminary Design Drawings
We will develop preliminary design drawings for each alternative considered. The following will be
prepared:
1. Detailed site plan
2. Elevations or rendering
3. Structural modifications (if rehabilitation alternative is recommended)
4. Mechanical plan
5. Mechanical section
Plans will be developed on 11" x 17" paper.
H. Construction Phasing
AKM will develop construction phasing for implementing the proposed improvements while
maintaining operation of the existing pump station. This work will describe how the existing sewers
will be rerouted to allow construction of the recommended facilities, any bypass pumping that is
required, and testing and acceptance protocol prior to switching services.

• Cracks or breaches in the sewer • Protruding laterals
• Roots • Sags
• Infiltration
The reviewer will complete a report summarizing the deficiencies in each reach of sewer which is
inspected. At a minimum, the following will be included in the report:
• DVD number • Manhole identification numbers • Material of pipe
• Inspection number • Pipe identification numbers • Length of pipe
• Inspection location • Direction of camera during inspection • Number of occurrences of each structural and
• Inspection date operation and maintenance deficiency
The report and video will then be reviewed by the Project Engineer to confirm the initial analysis and
develop recommendations for repair (spot repair; lining; or total replacement). In most instances, lining
the deficient sewer provides a suitable long term repair.
The analysis of the reviewer and Project Engineer will be included in the Preliminary Design Report. An
exhibit will be generated which shows the locations of all sewers to be lined; where a spot repair is to
occur; and where total replacement is needed.
Report Preparation
The results of the analysis and studies, above, will be documented in a Preliminary Design Report. It will
include background information, a discussion of the deficiencies, a detailed evaluation and discussion of
the potential improvements, alternative evacuations, costs, design parameters, construction phasing,
proposed bidding and construction schedule, and calculations. This report will guide the preparation of
the subsequent construction documents. A proposed outline for the report is as follows:

AKM will provide the City with engineering support during the preparation of environmental documentation
consisting of responses to questions and development of exhibits. The actual development of the
environmental documents is not included as part of AKM's scope of work.
TASK B — FINAL DESIGN SERVICES, CONSTRUCTION PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS
In this Phase, AKM will develop construction documents suitable for bidding purposes, based upon the work
( ) completed in the Preliminary Design Report. The plans will provide sufficient detail to clearly define the work
and provide the City with a comprehensive record of the constructed facilities for future reference. Our
proposal is predicated upon designing an entirely new pumping facility and forcemain for the 8 Street Station.
The work at the Pier Pump Station includes a new wet well with secondary containment; new access hatch
installation; new grease trap; new pump station control panel; and new telemetry system.
The amount of sewer replacement is currently unknown. Our proposal is predicated upon preparing plan and
profile drawings for 5000 LF of sewer reconstruction. Lining projects will be delineated by an atlas map, and
descriptions in the project specifications'. Standard details for the various spot repairs identified will also be
provided in the plan set.
1. Construction Plans
The plans will be developed to 50, 90 and 100 percent stages, each followed by City review. The plans
will be prepared in accordance with the requirements of the City and the "Standard Specifications for
Public Works Construction (SSPWC), Latest Edition" as well as applicable national and local codes. Final

Alternative 1 of the Project Understanding for the 8 Street Pump Station. The base cost of our proposal is
also predicated on a submersible design. Should the City select a wet well / dry well pump station for
replacement of the 8 Street facility, an additional 6 structural sheets and 1 mechanical sheet of drawings
will be required (7 total additional sheets). The design of a wet well / dry well pump station is listed on our
fee proposal as an optional cost.
