Description Of The Company
Our pipeline experience dates back to 1896, the year in which Pitometer (now part
of the Severn Trent organization) was founded. Severn Trent has continued to build upon
Pitometer's reputation for providing quality pipeline services to local communities in a
manner that makes doing business easy. Our combination of quality, service, regulatory
knowledge and local focus is the reason we have been around for more than a century.
As a result, Severn Trent has become the industry leader in local water distribution system
and sewer collection system solutions. We began providing these services under the
Severn Trent name in 1997.
Our Pipeline Services (STPS) division's primary line of business is water and
wastewater field testing and analysis, as well as line-stopping and valve and hydrant
exercising equipment and services. Our clients are typically small and large municipalities,
but we also perform similar work for industrial clients. Our engineers and field technicians
work closely with client representatives to help them solve flow, pressure, and leakage
problems in their systems. Severn Trent also performs hydraulic modeling and master
plan studies. Severn Trent is often called upon as a subcontractor to other firms because
of the specialized work that we perform.
The Chicago office provides leak detection services on a continuing basis to
approximately 30 municipal clients in the Chicago area. The Chicago office will be
responsible for performing the Water System Leak Detection Services for the City of Elgin.
A-2
•
Project Approach
Based upon our understanding of the needs for the planned project, this section
contains a description of our approach and discussions of the techniques that STPS will
use to meet the required project objectives.
Leak Detection
Conduct a leak detection/location survey with ultrasonic detection equipment on
approximately 382 miles of water main within the City of Elgin distribution system. The
system will be monitored by listening on all hydrants, selected valves and on any other
necessary appurtenances with highly sensitive sound intensifying instruments. The
distance between listening points will not be greater than 500 feet, with physical contact
made on fire hydrants, valves and curb stops.
B-1
L
During the detection survey, records will be developed to include:
* Type of appurtenance monitored.
* Location.
* Mechanical deficiencies.
* Map discrepancies.
These field survey records will be made part of the final report and submitted to the
City of Elgin.
A list will be developed for the City of Elgin, Public Works Department of all
inaccessible appurtenances that need to be surveyed. It will be the responsibility of the
City of Elgin, Public Works Department to either locate or clean those appurtenances.
This will include breaking loose all covers, uncovering buried valves, pumping out valve
vaults and removing debris.
Leak Location
All appurtenances showing indications of leakage will be thoroughly investigated
with the FCS TriCorr 2001 and Radcom Soundsens leak correlators to pinpoint the leaks
for repair.
L
B-2
EL
The leaks that are found will be classified as follows and will be reported daily on
individual leak location forms:
Class I: Leaks which are hazardous in terms of potential underground washouts,
possibly resulting in surface collapse, and/or damage to nearby utilities,
commercial and private properties or leaks that indicate leakage to be severe
enough to warrant immediate repair by Public Work forces.
Class II: Leaks which display water losses significant enough to be placed on a regular
repair schedule.
Class Ill: Relatively small leaks which should be repaired as work time permits.
When possible, all leaks will be marked in the field with a distinctive paint mark
and/or field stake for each leak.
STPS, in the event of an errant leak location, will re-pinpoint that leak until it is
exposed. Every effort will be made by STPS to return to the site while the initial repair
excavation is open.
A copy of the STPS "Leak Location" form is shown on the following page.

Remonitorinq
A follow-up survey will be undertaken after the leaks have been repaired to affirm
no other leaks were masked by the first leak. Remonitoring will only be undertaken prior
to the completion of the survey.
Communications
The following will be adhered to during the course of the Water Distribution System
Leak Survey for the City of Elgin:
* Daily check-in with the City of Elgin representative for the project prior to starting day's
activities.
* Any Leak Location Reports will be turned in daily.
* Report defective system components such as valves, fire hydrants and curb stops which
are noted in the course of carrying out field activities.
Traffic Control
STPS will follow all traffic safety rules designated by the Illinois Department of
Transportation. All survey crews will be trained in traffic control safety.
B-4
Final Report
Prepare five (5) copies of the final report showing the results of all tests and
investigations. The report will include the leak location, type of leak, estimated quantity of
leakage found, Leak Location Reports, inventory of defective system components and
map errors, along with conclusions and recommendations. Also included with the report
will be the water distribution system map. Leaks that were pinpointed during the survey
will be noted on the map in their approximate location. It is estimated that the final report
will be submitted within four weeks of the conclusion of all field work.
Schedule
STPS can initiate the Water Distribution System Leak Survey within 30 days after
receipt of a notice to proceed. All work will be carried out and completed in a
professional, effective and timely manner.
It is anticipated that the field work for the City of Elgin Water System Leak
Detection Services will take approximately 45 work days. This estimate may be affected
by adverse weather conditions.
The work will be conducted primarily during normal working hours with additional
leak detection being conducted during late evening and/or early morning hours if
necessary in areas of high traffic volume.

Project Administration
Key factors required for successful project management and administration include
scheduling, budgeting, and control of costs. Senior STPS personnel evaluate project
performance and budget. Corrective action is taken by the Project Manager to comply
with project requirements. If project conditions or other needs are found which are
significantly different than estimated, City of Elgin representatives will be notified.
The Project Manager will meet with the field personnel on a periodic basis to
provide a status report on the progress of the study.
STPS understands the need to provide quality work and its 104 year history with a
high percentage of repeat clients is evidence of this. Each project is checked at key points
by review engineers to ensure that the development of data is correct and accurate. The
analysis of the data is also reviewed as are all reports prior to their submission to our
clients. All reports are reviewed in depth with our clients based upon their needs and
expectations.

AND OUALRY INFRASTRUCTURE
FROM: David M. Dorgan, City Manager
Gail Cohen, Purchasing Directo
SUBJECT: RFP #03-084 , Water System Leak Detection Services
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and
members of the City Council with information to award a contract
for water system leak detection services to Severn Trent .
BACKGROUND
The loss of water through system leakage has always been of
concern to the Water Department . A Request for Proposals for a
water leak detection survey was drafted and sent to ten firms .
An advertisement was placed in the July 8, 2003 "Courier News" ,
and four proposals were received on July 29, 2003 .
The technical proposals were reviewed by members of the Water
and Purchasing Departments and evaluated on the following
criteria; knowledge and experience, past performance record,
scope of services, staffing/work load, technical approach,
familiarity with local conditions, and ability to meet the
schedule. Severn Trent and ME Simpson were tied for the highest
ranking. The cost proposals were then opened and Severn Trent
was lower priced and is therefore recommended for a contract
award. Severn Trent has satisfactorily provided leak detection
services for the City in the past under the name "Pitometer. "
GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED
