Upon completion of this study, the Engineer will conduct a two-day workshop at the City's offices to instruct Water Department staff on the use of the modeling software for the evaluation of future proposed improvements or expansions. Other City staff will be included in the workshop effort as deemed applicable by the City. C. WATER SUPPLY EVALUATIONS Based on the water demand projections, the requirements for expansion of water supply for the study periods will be identified. Any additional supply capacity will include an evaluation of the best source for supply expansion including the Fox River, deep aquifer, shallow aquifer, off-channel storage, aquifer storage and recovery, combinations of these sources, and other potential supply scenarios. The evaluations will include consideration of the capacity of the various components of the existing supply and treatment facilities to determine the adequacy of each component with respect to the projected growth of future water requirements. More specifically, the evaluations will include the following: 1. Review Reports. Obtain and review reports from state agencies relative to historical flow records, including low flows, in the Fox River at Elgin; potential shallow aquifer water supplies in the area; and deep aquifer water supplies. Obtain the latest information from the Illinois State Water Survey (ISWS), Illinois Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Illinois Department of Transportation Division of Water Resources (DWR), and Illinois State Geological survey (ISGS). The focus will be on the 5-Year Kane County Water Resources Study in which the City is participating as well as Fox River current and projected flows. In addition to a review of the available reports from state agencies, an independent review of the recommendations made in the past water master planning reports will be conducted 2. Review Water Rights Considerations. Evaluate the City's current water rights in the Fox River Basin relative to potential future conflicts with competing interests. In the past, DNR has indicated that they will balance the needs of the many users of Fox River water during low flow periods. They will be contacted again to understand their current policies regarding low flow periods, obtain any models of the Fox River, and identify potential operational impacts for the City. Elgin,Illinois 2004 Comprehensive Water Master Plan 05/18/04 A-7 3. Evaluate Fox River Supply. a. Estimate Low Flows. ISWS and IDNR have modeled Fox River flows in the past. These models have been used to determine the impacts of increased pumping from the City's intake. The latest version of the models will be reviewed and run if appropriate to determine impacts of any proposed changes in operations at the City's intake. A range of scenarios will be tested to determine the most effective use of the Fox River for the City. b. Investigate Regulation of Upstream Dams. Stratton Dam is operated by the DWR. Conversations with them a few years ago indicated that change in the operation of the dam was not under consideration at that time. DWR personnel will be contacted again to determine the current status. Options for dam operation will then be identified. c. Investigate Potential for Off-Channel Storage. Past analyses, current land use, and proposed land use maps will be reviewed to identify potential locations for storage off of the main channel of the Fox River. Analyses will be conducted to determine the amount of water that could be diverted from the Fox River and stored at potential reservoir sites. The yield of these sites will be determined. 4. Evaluate Shallow Aquifer Supply. Previous studies have identified areas that may be suitable for development of viable well fields tapping shallow sand and gravel deposits. The 5-Year Study is to evaluate the yield of these shallow aquifers as well. This information will be used to determine the potential yield of shallow sand and gravel deposits near the City. 5. Evaluate Deep Aquifer Supply. Current and projected use of water from the deep aquifer and findings from the 5-Year Study will be reviewed and used to evaluate the potential for expanded use of this source. The first interim report on the 5-Year Study, if available, will summarize the geology of the area and will be used for this study. ISWS and ISGS staff will be contacted for any information available relative to deep aquifer supply and proposed modeling. However, groundwater modeling will not be part of these evaluations. 6. Evaluate Other Supply Options. Conjunctive uses of the available groundwater and surface water sources will be evaluated. These will include use of horizontal collector wells or vertical wells to induce bank filtration as well as a conceptual evaluation of the potential for aquifer storage and recovery in the vicinity of Elgin. Feasibility of using surface water sources other than the Fox River will also be considered. Elgin,Illinois 2004 Comprehensive Water Master Plan 05/18/04 A-8 7. Develop Water Supply Alternatives. Once evaluation of the potential sources of supply is completed, potential combinations of sources that will meet the City's future needs will be identified. A listing of conceptual alternatives will be developed and reviewed with the City. This list will then be shortened to include the three most likely alternatives for further refinement of the conceptual plans. 8. Develop Opinion of Probable Costs. Develop opinions of probable construction costs for the alternatives that are refined in Task 7 and identify the most cost-effective alternative. 9. Prepare Draft Water Supply Report. Prepare draft report sections discussing the results of the water supply evaluations and the recommended supply improvements. Submit five copies for City review. The report will consist of a narrative along with appropriate tables and exhibits. Following resolution of City review comments, the draft supply evaluation report section will be incorporated into the draft Comprehensive Master Plan report document. D. WATER TREATMENT EVALUATIONS 1. Evaluate Facilities Capacity Requirements. Based on projected water demands within each system service level and the results of the water supply evaluations, evaluate the existing water treatment, pumping and storage facilities ability to meet future requirements. Recommendations regarding new facilities or expansion of existing facilities to meet the water requirements of each service level will be developed. The economics and operational issues relative to utilizing dump and re-pump facilities to off set maximum day water production temporarily or permanently will be considered where new facilities are required. Comparisons will be made of the economics and operational issues associated with expanding system storage vs. development of additional pumping capacity and piping. 2. Review Recommended Treatment Improvements. Review previous study recommendations regarding improvements and/or expansion of the Airlite water treatment plant facilities. Based on projected water demands AND the results of the supply evaluations, confirm if the previous recommendations remain appropriate for meeting future demands. 3. Define Future Treatment Expansion Options. Evaluate the capacity and treatability requirements associated with any shallow aquifer well fields and/or other viable surface supplies. Evaluation will focus on the quality Elgin,Illinois 2004 Comprehensive Water Master Plan 05/18/04 A-9 and quantity of the source with an economic comparison with the utilization of deep aquifer wells or Fox River supply. Based on the results of the evaluations identify alternative treatment technologies that may be necessary to utilize any new water supplies. 4. Conduct Site Selection Study. Review expansion possibilities of the existing and/or new water treatment plant sites with City staff and conduct a field surface reconnaissance trip to review the existing or new sites to determine if there are additional considerations not apparent from the available records. Review available topographic, property, and utility maps relative to any potential plant sites. Up to 20 hours have been budgeted for this task. 5. Develop Opinion of Probable Cost. Develop opinions of probable construction costs for recommended water treatment improvements. 6. Prepare Draft Water Treatment Report.

AND ClUALITYINFRASTRUCTURE FROM: David M. Dorgan, City Manager Larry E. Deibert, Water Director SUBJECT: Engineering Services for Comprehensive Water Master Plan - 2004 PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of City Council with information to award the agreement for engineering services for the 2004 Comprehensive Water Master Plan to the engineering firm Black &Veatch Corporation. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the award of an engineering agreement with Black & Veatch for the Comprehensive Water Master Plan in the amount of$281,600. BACKGROUND The 2004 Master Plan will provide the City with a comprehensive plan for the design of expansions and improvements to the existing water supply and distribution facilities. This evaluation will identify and establish the capacities of improvements needed to meet Elgin's water demands and service area through the year 2035. The Water Department requested proposals from ten (10) different engineering firms. City staff conducted pre-proposal meetings with nine (9) engineering firms interested in submitting a proposal. The mandatory pre-proposal meetings were held individually with the firms between February 9, 2004, and February 13, 2004. On February 27, 2004 seven (7) proposals were received. The selection team consisted of five staff members who individually evaluated all seven proposals and unanimously ranked Black & Veatch the highest, best qualified firm. Attached is a qualification ratings sheet. Black & Veatch (B&V) has a good understanding of the City of Elgin water system, and an excellent team in all aspects of the project (Water Distribution, Water Supply, Hydrological, Planning, and Quality Control). B&V key team members have been involved in assisting the City in addressing development issues in the west zone and have a current computer model Engineering Agreement for Water Master Plan May 7, 2004 Page 2 available. B&V has vast experience in preparing planning studies for communities with populations ranging from 2,000 to 2,000,000. Upon selection of B&V, fees from each of the firms were opened and reviewed. B&V's fee of $299,700 compares favorably to the fee submitted by the 2°' ranked firm, Alvord, Burdick & Howson (AB&H), $255,118. There are several scope items in the B&V proposal not addressed by AB&H which the selection committee felt were necessary to be included. These items include preliminary review of far west needs for pending developments, greater review of future water supply options, and preparation of a draft water distribution report. The final scope of services was negotiated with B&V in which the hours of work for several items were revised or eliminated. These items include reduction in software costs, eliminating continuing support services, elimination of a population and water demand draft technical report, and reduction of hours for computer model field testing. The reduction was for a total of $18,100, bringing the final engineering fee to $281,600.
