REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO:HONORABLE MAYOR
AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM:GRANT M. YATES
CITY MANAGER
DATE:Date of August 23, 2016
SUBJECT: Cooperative Funding Agreement for Regional Agricultural Pipeline
Conversion Project – Lake Elsinore Outlet Channel
Recommendation
1.Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute the Cooperative Funding
Agreement between Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District, Riverside
County Flood Control and Water Conservation District and the City of Lake
Elsinore. The City’s cost share, not to exceed one-third of the cost of design
or $35,000.00.
2.Approve agreement in substantially the form attached
Background
In 2003, the City entered into the Comprehensive Water Management Agreement
with Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EMVWD). The primary object of the
Agreement was the addition of well and reclaimed water to help maintain the lake level
at 1240’ mean sea level year round (to the extent that funding and reclaimed water were
available). EVMWD obtained permission from Riverside County Flood Control and
Water Conservation District (RCFCWCD) to use the Outlet Channel as the means of
getting the reclaimed water to the Lake. As a result of the constant supply of water,
vegetation has flourished within the channel bottom; the vegetation obstructs the water
flow and consumes the reclaimed water, reducing what actually reaches the Lake. The
vegetation has also created maintenance issues for RCFCWCD, the agency
responsible for maintenance of the channel. In 2015, an existing 36” RCP agricultural

pipeline (no longer in use) was discovered in the channel. The agricultural pipeline runs
parallel in the channel from EVMWD’s discharge point for approximately 5,000 feet. A
partial inspection was conducted and shows the pipeline to be in apparent good
condition. The associated pumps are in need of replacement due to age. (Exhibit A)
Discussion
Upon discovery of the agricultural pipeline, a committee comprised of staff from the
City, EVMWD and RCFCWCD met to discuss its use for discharge of reclaimed water to
the Lake. The committee is in concurrence that the use of the agricultural pipeline will
provide for reductions in channel vegetation, maintenance costs, evaporation and
evapo-transpiration and result in an increase of discharge flows reaching the Lake,
along with providing for long term savings to all parties. EVMWD agreed to prepare and
circulate an RFP to solicit bids for design. The design will investigate the re-use of the
existing line, along with the extension of the line to the lake. Three RFP’s were received
and reviewed. Dudek’s “Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project” RFP was
selected. (Exhibit B). The proposed design cost of $105,000 (includes a 5%
contingency) is to be shared equally by all parties with the City’s cost not to exceed
$35,000.00 pursuant to a Cooperative Funding Agreement (Exhibit C).
Fiscal Impact
The City’s cost share of $35,000.00 is to be appropriated from the budgeted Lake
Maintenance fund.

TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 5, 2015
REFERENCE: Temescal Ag Line
Evaluation
EVMWD Agriculture Irrigation Pipeline Hydraulic Analysis
INTRODUCTION
This Technical Memorandum (TM) provides an evaluation of the existing 36 -inch agricultural
irrigation line (Ag Line) to convey treated wastewater, meeting the requirements of
recycled/reclaimed water, from the Regional Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) to Lake
Elsinore and/or Turnout No. 5 of the EVMWD recycled water system. This TM includes a
background of the current operating conditions, condition assessment of existing Ag line, a
hydraulic analysis of the potential scenarios, cost estimates, and recommended next steps.
PROJECT BACKGROUND
Elsinore Valley Municipal water District (EVMWD) currently discharges tertiary -treated
effluent from the Regional WRF to the Temescal Creek channel between Wasson Sill and
Lake Elsinore. As a result, the growth of vegetation in the channel has increased
maintenance costs for the Riverside County Flood Control District.
As shown in Figure 1 on the next page, an existing Ag Line runs parallel to the channel from
the Regional WRF to Lake Elsinore, then easterly towards Turnout No. 5, owned by the
EVMWD. The Ag Line has historically conveyed raw water from Canyon Lake to the
Temescal Valley in the opposite flow direction as proposed. However, the Ag Line is
currently dry and unused and its previous operating conditions are not anticipated in the
future. The Ag Line could be used to convey recycled water from the Regional WRF to Lake
Elsinore. This would alleviate maintenance efforts created from excessive vegetation by
bypassing the channel.
Currently, potable water is being used to supplement the recycled system at Turnout No. 5.
Diverting water treated at the Regional WRF to Turnout No. 5 would allow EVMWD to
deliver additional recycled water to customers supplied by Turnout No. 5 to meet peak
demands.
The existing pump station at the Regional WRF consists of a 2+1 pump configuration
running at approximately 8.3 HP. Modifications to the existing pump station may be required
to convey flow from the Regional WRF to the Ag Line.
A hydraulic evaluation of using the Ag Line to convey water from the Regional WRF to Lake
Elsinore and/or Turnout No. 5 is discussed in the sections below.

EVMWD Agriculture Irrigation Pipeline Hydraulic Analysis
HYDRAULIC EVALUATION OF OPTIONS
Based on review of the available data, hydraulic evaluations were conducted to determine
the feasibility of using the Temescal Ag Line to convey recycled water from the Regional
WRF to Lake Elsinore and/or Turnout No. 5. The condition of the Ag Line was assessed by
reviewing the available closed-circuit television (CCTV) data.
Condition Assessment
MWH has reviewed the CCTV video data in their entirety and conclude that the existing Ag
Line is in excellent condition for the proposed conveyance of recycled water from the
Regional WRF to Lake Elsinore until the bend (between AG -2773 and AG259 segments) at
Limited Ave near Lake Elsinore. Prior to use of this pipeline to convey water it is recommend
that this line be cleaned with high pressure water to remove the mud. CCTV was not
performed from this bend towards Turnout No. 5 as no access points are available beyond
this point and due to excessive mud and rocks in the pipeline. As a result, no assessment
review was possibly made. According to EVMWD, this concerned pipe segment has been
damaged over time and can no longer in be of use for water conveyance. A map of Ag Line
CCTV is illustrated in Figure 2 below.

Option 1: Conveyance to Lake Elsinore
Option 1 consists of conveying treated effluent from the Regional WRF to an alternate discharge
location adjacent to Lake Elsinore using the existing Ag Line.
Based on review of available data and input from EVMWD, the existing Ag Line appears
suitable for the segment of the line between the Regional WRF and the point where the pipe
bends adjacent to Lake Elsinore. Past the bend, the pipe is structurally compromised and
unable to convey flow.
Based on review of as -built drawings, the segment of the Ag Line between the Regional WRF
and Lake Elsinore is relatively flat. A siphon exists where the Ag Line crosses under the
Temescal Creek channel. An elevation profile of the Ag Line is provided in Figure 3 below.

Length (ft)
A system curve was determined for the conveyance of water from the Regional WRF to a
discharge near Lake Elsinore. The existing system requires a total head of approximately 10
feet to convey 7 MGD to Lake Elsinore. Modifying the system to convey water through the
existing Ag line would require approximately 8 feet of head to convey the 7 MGD to Lake
Elsinore. Based on the system curve, pumping is required to sufficiently convey flow. The
existing pump station consists of a 2+1 pump configuration operating at 8.3 HP.
The pump and system curves are provided in Figure 4 below.

Flow (gpm)
From the hydraulic evaluation it was determined that the existing pumps are insufficient to
deliver water properly under option 1. The existing pumps would not be able to convey the
entire flow of the Regional WRF to the lake. Based on the information provided the existing
pumps are powered via 25 hp motors and the impeller assembly has been trimmed to decrease
the flow rate. In order for the pumps to function properly for option 1, the impellers within the
bowl assembly will need to be replaced. Based on preliminary research these pump models are
still manufactured and the impellers can be replaced. MWH also recommends that the District
consider replacing the pumps entirely. The existing pumps were installed in 1986 and may be
reaching the end of their useful life. Installing new pumps with inverter rated motors designed to
operate for a range of future flow conditions would allow the district to decrease power
consumption, save money, and allow for future operating conditions. These pumps could be
powered from variable frequency drives to allow for a variety of flow conditions and to maintain
premium efficiency. At this time we are waiting on pump curves from suppliers for the new
vertical turbine pumps at RWRF.
Option 2: Conveyance to Turnout No. S
A hydraulic analysis was conducted to determine if water could be conveyed from the Regional
WRF to Turnout No. 5. Approximately 272 feet of total head is required to pump the design flow
of 2,084 gpm from a proposed wet well and pump station near Lake Elsinore to Turnout No. 5. It
was assumed that the discharge pressure at Turnout No. 5 is at 100 psi.
Since the existing Ag Line is compromised from the stretch between Lake Elsinore and Turnout
No. 5, a new 18 -inch PVC pipe would need to be installed.
Figure 5 below shows the pump and system curves for Option 2.

COST ESTIMATE
An Opinion of Probable Construction Cost (OPCC) has been developed for implementation of
Option 1 and Option 2. The total cost of construction is approximately $5.6 Million. The
preponderance of the work is for the new recycled water pump station and pipeline. The cost of
the work required to upgrade the Regional WRF effluent pump station and the Ag line is
approximately $500,000. The recycled water pipeline, pumps, and appurtenances is
approximately $5.1 Million. Constructing both facilities simultaneously could allow for an
economy scale to decrease the project cost further.
A full OPCC for each option can be found in the Table 1 and Table 2. Using an accuracy range
of 30% on the low side and 50% on the high side, a range was developed for each alternative
and is also shown in the OPCCs provided in Table 1. Below is a description of a Class 5 OPCC
per AACEI guidelines and what sort of accuracy one might expect with this level of cost
estimate:
Class 5 estimates are generally prepared based on very limited information,
and subsequently have wide accuracy ranges. Typically, engineering is from
2% to 10% complete. They are often prepared for strategic planning
purposes market studies assessment of viability project location studies and
long range capital planning. Virtually all Class 5 estimates use stochastic
estimating methods such as cost curves capacity factors and other
parametric techniques. Expected accuracy ranges are from —20% to —50%
on the low side and +30% to 100% on the high side, depending on
technological complexity of the project, appropriate reference information,
and the inclusion of an appropriate contingency determination. Ranges could
exceed those shown in unusual circumstances. As little as 1 hour or less to
perhaps more than 200 hours may be spent preparing the estimate based on
the project and estimating methodology

Subject: Proposal for Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project
Dear Mr. Heidt:
Thank you for the opportunity to present our proposal for the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD
or District) Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project. We understand the primary goal of this project is
to reduce the burden associated with channel maintenance at the existing treatment plant outfall at the Wasson
Sill. The existing unused regional agricultural pipeline presents an opportunity to cost effectively mitigate the
issue by conveying outflow to Lake Elsinore. We have thoroughly reviewed the provided information, existing
site conditions, request for proposals, and provide the following benefits for selecting Dudek to complete this
project for the District:
Recent Agriculture Pipeline Conversion Experience. Dudek provided engineering services to the Temescal
Valley Water District for converting an upper portion of the reginal agricultural pipeline for use in conveying
recycled water.
Streamline Design Approach. A critical aspect of the project is cost reduction, both in long-term maintenance
and short-term construction. Through a logical and practical approach to the conversion, the construction cost
can be minimized to only necessary improvements to achieve the desired functionality, with long-term
reliability.
Skilled and Creative Team. Dudek has established ourselves as taking a practical, creative, and innovative
approach to design challenges, looking at the root causes of issues, clearly identifying the critical success factors,
and defining solutions that achieve the ideal combination of effectiveness, quality, reliability and overall project
cost.

DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 3
B. Project Understanding and Approach
Background:
Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD) pumps up
to 5,000 gpm of tertiary-treated effluent from the Regional
Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) through approximately
4,000 lf of 36” DIP outfall pipe to a relatively new outlet
constructed at the Wasson Sill. From this point, effluent flows
down the Lake Elsinore Outlet Channel to Lake Elsinore. As a
result of this constant supply of water, vegetation has
flourished within the channel bottom downstream of the
outfall requiring costly maintenance to keep growth down
such that the channel maintains its design capacity and does
not potentially revert to a protected wetland.
Existing Conditions
During the construction of the outlet into Wasson Sill, a concrete valve vault connected the WRF outfall pipeline
to an existing 36” RCP agricultural pipeline that was not in use. Slide gates within the vault direct flow to the
Wasson Sill. The agricultural pipeline is aligned parallel to the Lake Elsinore Outlet Channel for approximately
5,000 ft before turning easterly towards Turnout No. 5. The pipeline was partially inspected in 2015 as part of an
alternative analysis for conveying effluent through the pipeline to Turnout No. 5. Based on our review and
consistent with the 2015 report, the existing agricultural pipeline appears to be in good condition with the
exception of mud buildup in several low points. There is a portion of the ag pipeline that becomes an inverted
siphon, crossing under the Wasson Channel. This portion of the pipe was submerged in standing water and
not able to be inspected for condition. We anticipate that while there is very likely buildup of mud and/or solids
within the belly of the inverted siphon, we do not expect structural issues with the pipe.
Along the alignment of the agricultural pipeline are eleven (11) standpipes. Based on the hydraulics of the
anticipated extension of the outfall and grade of the ag pipeline, the existing standpipes may need no
modification other than potential structural repairs along the chimney. We provide more information about this
concept in the Approach Section below.
The outfall pump station at the WRF consists of a 2+1 configuration with a capacity of 2,500 at 18 ft of total
dynamic head. Per District personnel, the pumps are in need of replacement due to age. The extension of the
outfall pipeline is not anticipated to increase the required dynamic head of the pumps, but will be confirmed as
part of the preliminary design.
Goals
The project goal is the reduction of cost to the maintenance by the Riverside County Flood Control and Water
Conservation District.
Project site at Wasson Sill where vegetation is requiring
costly maintenance
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 4
Objectives
The objectives of the project are:
1. Evaluate the needs for converting the AG pipeline to convey treated effluent to a new outlet
structure at Lake Elsinore.
2. Design of the pipeline and outlet structure for discharge of effluent from the converted AG
pipeline to Lake Elsinore.
3. Specification of replacement outfall pumps at the WRF.
Approach
The following presents our review of existing conditions, ideas, and approach to addressing the critical success
factors of the project, beginning with the upstream connection point, then the pipeline/standpipes, and
concluding with the outlet to Lake Elsinore.
During the proposal stage of the project, Dudek had the opportunity to visit the location existing outfall at the
Wasson Sill. The record drawings of the outfall construction appear to indicate that the existing 36” RCP ag
pipeline (out of service) was connected directly to the diversion structure just downstream of the outfall
discharge. Manual slide gates direct flow to the outlet within Wasson Sill and prevent effluent from entering the
ag pipeline. Assuming this is accurately constructed, the District only requires switching flow through operating
the existing valves to begin sending effluent through the ag pipeline. No further construction is necessary at
this upstream location, but an internal weir may be beneficial as discussed below.
FIGURE 1. EXISTING OUTFALL PIPELINE AND WASSON SILL
In the event of a problem in the downstream Ag pipeline, having the ability to use the Wasson Sill outfall as a
backup discharge point provides added insurance that the discharge is controlled. To accomplish this without
the need for manual operation of the slide gates, a diversion weir can be constructed within the valve vault.
Using this configuration, if the hydraulic grade of flow rises within the downstream portion of the ag pipeline,
water will automatically spill over the weir and outlet to the Wasson Sill.
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 5
The 36” RCP ag pipeline follows the Wasson Channel to Lake Elsinore then turns southeast toward Turnout 5.
The pipeline was inspected last year, with the reach of pipe from the valve structure at Wasson Sill to just past
West Limited Road identified as in “Excellent Condition”. The approximate location of the pipeline is shown in
the following Figure 2.
FIGURE 2. AGRICULTURAL PIPELINE TO BE REPURPOSED
Included within the project objectives is the evaluation and potential upgrade to the existing effluent pump
station at the WRF. Dudek utilized the record drawings from the Lake Elsinore Outlet Channel 36” Irrg. Line
Relocation project (1989) to approximate the profile of the pipeline from the Wasson Sill to the proposed
discharge point at Lake Elsinore. Eleven (11) standpipes exist along the pipeline, which were included within the
profile. The District 2009 Sewer Master Plan identifies the proposed upgrades anticipated for the WRF to
16MGD and ultimate capacity of 23.5 MGD. Therefore, outflow from the WRF is anticipated to increase as part
of these expansions.
To assess the potential inspection and design needs for sealing the existing standpipes, Dudek conducted a
preliminary hydraulic profile of the Ag pipeline from the WRF outfall pump station through the proposed outfall
extension to Lake Elsinore. The hydraulic profile is shown in Figure 3. As demonstrated within the profile, once
past the Wasson Sill (high point), the ag pipeline extension follows a general downslope to the proposed outlet
at Lake Elsinore. For approximately 30% of the ag pipeline, water will be conveyed by open channel flow. From
approximately Flint Street to West Limited Street, surcharge does not exceed 2.5 feet (at the bottom of the
inverted siphon), resulting in a pressure of only 1 psi. If the new pipe were obstructed near the proposed outlet
at Lake Elsinore, the hydraulic grade would rise to a point where water would overflow at a weir in the existing
valve vault at the Wasson Sill, allowing the continued discharge to the channel. In this pipe failure scenario,
water would rise in the standpipes, but would not reach the surface.
As a result of our evaluation as described above, we only anticipant the need for minimal improvement to the
existing standpipes, such as concrete patching, addressing visible corrosion or decay, and surface level
improvements. Structural evaluation of the stand pipes is not considered necessary, nor sealing the standpipes
to withstand significant pressure.
The available CCTV inspection videos do reveal the existence of mud and muck in portions of the Ag pipeline,
particularly segments with very flat slopes, resulting in slow velocity and increased settlement of suspended
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 6
solids. Cleaning of the pipeline during the design phase could be implemented under an amendment, but we
anticipate the District would prefer to obtain these contracting services through the competitive bidding
process.
FIGURE 3. AG PIPELINE HYDRAULIC PROFILE
The outfall location is not specifically defined at this time, but can generally be determined as one of two
options as shown in Figure 4 and described below:
1. An outfall structure located just downstream of West Limited Street into the Wasson Channel, or
2. Through a pipeline extension of approximately 500 feet to a new outlet structure within Lake Elsinore.
Construction of a new outlet structure to discharge water directly into the Wasson Channel provides a cost
effective means of diverting flows to a point much closer to Lake Elsinore than currently operating, but will
continue to require the maintenance of vegetation at this point to Lake Elsinore. As the project goal is the
reduction of operational maintenance, this option does not fully eliminate the need for mitigation from
vegetation growth.
Construction of a pipeline extension to Lake Elsinore eliminates all treated effluent conveyed within Wasson
Channel and all associated operational maintenance directly related to WRF discharge water. The channel will
still require maintenance, but vegetation would likely disappear outside wet weather seasons. The extension of
the pipeline will increase cost to the District, as well as the need for acquiring easements across several parcels,
and increased coordination with the City of Elsinore, Department of Fish and Game, and potentially the ACOE
for construction within the perimeter of the lake.
Wasson Sill Outfall
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 7
FIGURE 4. OUTLET PIPELINE/STRUCTURE
Our approach to selection to the method and design of the outfall will be to identify the advantages and
disadvantages of each option, evaluate the short and long-term costs and risks, and provide the District with a
quantitative analysis of both options and resultant recommendation. This evaluation will be included as part of
the preliminary design. We have included within our scope investigation of subsurface conditions at the
connection point with the existing ag pipeline and the topographic survey necessary for design of the pipeline
alignment shown in Option #2.
Based on our preliminary evaluation of system hydraulics, we do not anticipate a significant increase in hydraulic
lift necessary for conveying treated effluent through the extended ag pipeline to Lake Elsinore. As shown on
Figure 3, once water reaches the Wasson Sill, the pipe slopes down gradient to the lake, allowing gravity flow.
Therefore, we do not anticipate the need to increase pump performance at the WRF Outfall pump station. The
project will include new pump(s) at the pump station, primarily due to old age. As part of this improvement, the
District may elect to increase the flow rate/hydraulic lift. Our approach to the pump station will be to confirm
the system hydraulic conditions and discuss the needs and specifications for the replacement pumps, including
the coordination of increasing capacity when the plant upgrades are designed.
Environmental Documentation and Permit Support
Dudek has an extensive history of environmental compliance, CEQA/NEPA, and resource agency permitting for
projects in the Riverside County. We maintain close working relationships with resource agency staff at US Fish
and Wildlife, US Army Corp of Engineers, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, and the California
Department of Fish and Wildlife. We will support the lead agency (City of Lake Elsinore) in the environmental
permitting process.
Project Management Approach
Project management involves balancing key project elements and communicating project progress to the client
and project team members. Our engineers are experienced project managers and use of several tools to
deliver client projects successfully. The use of these tools to track progress and project milestones allows for
project changes to be anticipated and well-managed, keeping the project’s objectives and goals in focus.
Dudek’s project manager will serve as the single point of contact between Dudek and the District, ensuring that
communication is filtered to the correct people involved on both the client side and consultant side of the
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 8
project. Our project manager will make sure all team members are aware of the project goals and objectives
and together with the client project manager will determine the project’s critical success factors.
Monthly progress reports will be sent from Dudek’s project manager to the client’s project manager providing
project updates about work completed during the past month, anticipated work for the next month, requested
client actions, planned deliverables and scope and budget discussion items.
Project Meetings are an essential part of Dudek’s communication strategy for successful project management.
Our assigned project manager will coordinate and lead all project-related meetings, both with the client and
internally. Requested meeting participants will be notified at least one week in advance by Dudek’s project
manager and will receive draft meeting notes no later than one business day after the meeting date.
Schedule and Cost
Dudek Project Managers utilize an earned value project budget and schedule management system, based on
the specific project’s work breakdown structure. Progress will be monitored continuously, reconciled monthly
with project billing. The approach to budget and schedule management provides a concrete snapshot of the
project status and gives the project manager the information needed to make decisions on resources, priority
and workflow. Milestones are identified at the beginning of the project and updated monthly based on
progress.
Quality Control
Quality assurance is a project management responsibility to be conducted in accordance to the quality control
plan. The Project Manager typically conducts quality control on a day-to-day basis. For major milestone
deliverables, Dudek Project Managers typically assign the quality control review to a Principal Level engineer
familiar with the unique aspects or technology related to the project. The quality assurance and quality control
plan is typically prepared at the onset of project execution and maintained throughout the project.
Project Schedule
We want to assure the District of Dudek’s abilities and availability to complete the scope of work within the
timeframes allotted. Dudek has prepared a schedule (Figure 5) that allows for adequate review time and
coordination.

C. Scope of Work
Task 1: Project Review
Dudek will conduct review of the proposed project to verify project can be designed and constructed as
proposed. Any concerns or potential problems will be brought to the attention of EVMWD immediately.
Dudek will contact the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (RCFCWCD) regarding
project permitting for the pipeline extension and shall coordinate with the City of Lake Elsinore for construction
of the pipeline and lake outlet structure/water quality facility. Dudek will also identify and potential permits
required by the RWQCB and will coordinate with the District to ensure the District is able to amend its permit to
discharge at this new discharge location. Dudek will also review the area surrounding the agricultural irrigation
pipeline for any environmental concerns and shall coordinate with the RCFCWCD for implementation of
mitigation improvements as identified by the RCFCWCD to alleviate environmental impacts to the project.
Task 2: Kick Off Meeting and Discussion of Project Review
Findings
Once Dudek has reviewed the site and identified potential permit requirements, a kick-off meeting will be held
with EVMWD staff and other agency staff to discuss the findings of the Project Review. The kick-off meeting will
establish appropriate contacts, review Dudek’s plans for implementing the work, and reaffirm proposed scope
of work and schedules for completion of the work.
Task 3: Preliminary Design Report
Dudek will prepare a Preliminary Design Report (PDR) that includes a study of the hydraulic impacts of the
pipeline extension to the existing pump station and potential improvements necessary for delivering water from
the Regional WRF to Lake Elsinore. The PDR work include a review of existing facilities, reports, a determination
of permit requirements, evaluation of pipe materials, hydraulic evaluation, and preparation of plot plans and
exhibits.
The design report shall conform to the EVMWD Design Guidelines and standards of professional engineering
practice.
Task 3.1: Material Options
Dudek will investigate and discuss proposed pipe materials, pumps, and appurtenance materials that may be
required. Dudek will use EVMWD standards and Accepted Materials Guidelines as a starting point, but
understands we are not limited in choice of materials. Preliminary pump curves, if pump changes are
recommended, will be evaluated and included in the design report.
Task 3.2: Existing Pipeline Evaluation
Dudek will review the evaluation of the condition of the existing agricultural irrigation pipeline as provided by
the 2015 MWH study and incorporate the recommendations of this report into the final design. Dudek will
perform pressure drop calculations to determine the probable hydraulic loss based on assumed pipe roughness
factor. The pipeline performance evaluation will be summarized in the PDR. Field-testing of the pipeline is not

DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 12
considered necessary and therefore not included at this time. Available CCTV of the pipeline will be reviewed
and assessed for condition.
Task 3.3: Existing Pipeline Reconnection
Currently, the agricultural irrigation pipeline is connected to the WRF plant and it is connected to the diversion
structure at Lake Elsinore Outlet channel. Dudek will investigate reconnecting pipeline and abandoning the
Junction structure.
Task 3.4: New Outfall Structure
The existing RCP is installed up to AG259. Dudek will investigate and evaluate two options for the outfall
location of the treated wastewater: extending the pipeline and constructing a new outfall structure in Lake
Elsinore or extending the pipeline to the Wasson Channel upstream of Lake Elsinore.
Task 3.5: Agency Meetings
Dudek will attend meetings that may be required by the City of Lake Elsinore, Riverside County Flood Control
and Water Conservation District or other agencies. Three (3) agency meetings are assumed as part of this
proposal.
Task 3.6: Hydraulics
Dudek will calculate the changes in system hydraulics associated with the extension of the outfall pipeline and
new outfall structure upon the existing system. Based on results of this evaluation, we will advise if changes in
the performance of the existing outfall pump station are necessary. We anticipate that the District can provide
existing pump station flow and pressure information for evaluation purposes.
Task 3.7: CEQA Documentation
Dudek will support the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District in their development of
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) findings specific to this project. The Riverside County Flood
Control and Water Conservation District will perform the CEQA analysis and will provide direction to EVMWD
and Dudek with required mitigation measures that will be included in the final design construction documents.
Task 3.8: Draft PDR
Dudek will prepare, assemble, and submit the Draft PDR, as a 30% design submittal, to the District. The Draft
PDR will address issues included in the Scope of Work. The Draft PDR will include the following:
The body of the report that addresses the Scope of Work
The current agricultural irrigation pipeline condition
Reconnecting pipeline at the diversion structures at the junction with the Lake Elsinore Outlet
channel
Outfall structure and/or water quality facility at the end of Irrigation pipeline extension at Lake of
Elsinore

Deliverables:
Draft PDR – one (1) electronic copy
Final PDR - one (1) electronic copy
Task 4: Design Field Survey Preparation
Dudek will conduct a topographical survey of the limits of construction are as defined within the PDR. Record
drawings will be used to support and complete the preparation of base file drawings used in final design. Dudek
will identify any desired underground utility information required and EVMWD will arrange for potholing.
The field survey will establish both horizontal and vertical control. Surveys will reference permanent monuments
and not to temporary project monuments. A sufficient number of points shall be used to accurately complete
the digital topographic modeling. The field survey shall tie in all controlling monuments within the map limits
and all street centerline intersections.
Depending on the alignment, the District may be required to obtain easements. Dudek can support the
preparation of plat and legal descriptions as part of amendment effort to the contract.
Task 5: Geotechnical
Dudek has secured the services of Converse Associates to prepare a geotechnical report that addresses
geotechnical concerns. The geotechnical task consists of the following subtasks:
Task 5.1: Soil Boring Sampling
Dudek will have a single subsurface investigation conducted at the connection point of the proposed pipeline
extension to the existing AG pipeline. Prior to this field investigation, site reconnaissance will be conducted and
permits (assumed no-cost) will be acquired. Soils sample will extend approximately 15-feet in depth. .
Task 5.2: Lab Testing
Laboratory testing of the soils sample will address structural capacity, moisture, density, sieve analysis, sheer,
and related physical aspects of the subsurface conditions necessary for preparing recommendations and design
associated with the shoring and construction of the proposed pipeline and structures.
The location of the boring will be plotted on a map and attached to the report. The boring will include survey
coordinates consistent with the project survey. Complete logs of the soil profiles shall be included in the report.
SCOPE OF WORK
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 14
Task 5.3: Depth Borings
The depth of the borings shall be adequate to characterize the soils to a depth of at least four feet below any
potential construction, currently estimated at 15-feet. Backfill will be primarily cuttings with a cold patch AC if in
a paved area.

Task 9: Bidding Services
Dudek will provide services during the bidding period, which includes attending a pre-bid meeting, answering
questions from bidders about the plans and specs, and preparing bidding addendum documents.
Dudek will review submitted bid documents received, prepare a bid spread sheet containing the numbers from
all bids received using the form provided by EVMWD, and complete the full evaluation of the bids received
from the three lowest bidders. Dudek will also evaluate the bidder’s responsiveness, licensing, references, and
work experience.
Dudek will prepare a memo outlining our findings and make a recommendation for award of the contract
following the format that will be provided by the District. As the level of effort associated with Task 9 can vary
considerably based on numerous factors unknown at this time, we have included a placeholder for this effort
consistent with approximately 12 hours of labor.
Task 10: Construction Services
Dudek will provide professional services for construction support. The level of effort required for construction
support is difficult to estimate, therefore, our fee proposal is representative of the minimum level generally
required. It is assumed the District will consider adjustments to the contract fee, if warranted.
Dudek will be familiar with District policies, as reflected in District’s standard specifications, regarding
construction liability. Standard specifications include the District requirement for the construction contractor to
carry bodily injury, including death, and property damage liability insurance that names, among others, with
Dudek as an additional insured. Standard specifications require the construction contractor to indemnify the
Consultant, among others, against liability and claims arising out our Contractor’s obligations, except for claims
arising through sole negligence or sole willful misconduct.
Task 10.1: Pre-Construction Meeting
Dudek will attend a pre-construction conference scheduled by the District and will be prepared to address
construction concerns as well as comment on the Contractor’s proposed means of construction and preliminary
schedule.
Task 10.2: Submittals
Dudek will review shop and work drawings submitted by the Contractor for compliance with the project
specifications and plans. The review shall be prompt and normally shall not exceed two weeks. Dudek will
prepare a list of expected submittals and compare it to Contractor’s list of submittals and will log and track all
shop drawing submittals. Dudek inform District Staff of any outstanding shop drawings. All correspondence
shall be through the District.
SCOPE OF WORK
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 18
Additionally, Dudek will review vendor and lab reports, certifications or material test and inspections, and
correlate such reports with the intentions of the Plans and Specifications. Dudek will maintain a submittal log
throughout the project.
Task 10.3: Consultation and Meetings
Dudek will furnish consultation and advice to District staff. Consultation will include, but not be limited to,
responding to requests for information and requests for clarification. (Assumed 30 hours project management
time per RFP.)
Dudek will attend meetings to resolve construction issues, as requested by District staff. (Two meetings assumed
per month at 2 hours per meeting throughout construction duration.) District will modify the contract fee, if
necessary, for additional consultation or participation in bi-weekly construction meetings.
Task 10.4: Record Drawings
Dudek will prepare record drawings (mylar and in electronic format [AutoCAD]) when construction work has
been completed and accepted by the District. Modifications to the drawings will be based upon information
supplied by the District from their Construction Inspectors, Manager, and/or Contactor. Dudek will notify the
District of discrepancies. The drawings will become District property.
Task 10.5: Change Orders
Dudek will assist the District with Change Orders, as needed. (Assumed 20 hours project management time.)
Assistance will include preparation of change order drawings and specifications, providing opinions as to
whether change orders are warranted, and assistance with cost estimates.
Task 11: QA/QC and Project Administration
As with all our projects, Dudek will administer a program of Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)
procedures for producing quality work and will effectively manage and control the work. Specific procedures
shall include, but shall not be limited to, planning, coordination, cost control, checking, reviewing and
scheduling the work.
Risk: District recognizes that there is a risk inherent with Consultant’s use of provided documents and that it is
impractical to determine the validity of all such information. Dudek will therefore review information provided to
them and give the District an opinion of the risk associated with reliance on such information. District will
determine whether to accept the risk or require additional verification of the information.
Document Printing, Checking Bid Documents: Dudek is responsible for the cost of printing plans, reports,
and specifications during the project development. District will perform the compilation, printing and binding of
all final bid documents when advertised for construction. Dudek will check a copy of the documents to ensure it
is complete and correctly compiled.
Task 11.1: QA/QC
Dudek will subject all documents to our in-house QA/QC procedures prior to submittal to the District for review.
Each submittal shall be accompanied by a written statement from the Principal-in-Charge of the project that the
documents being submitted have been checked for completeness, accuracy, and consistency.
SCOPE OF WORK
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 19
Dudek will perform discipline checks of all design calculations, drawings, specifications, construction cost
estimates, and reports. We will perform an integrated design review for multidisciplinary documents to provide
coordination and avoid conflicts in the documents. Qualified individuals who are not directly involved in the
design or supervision of the work will check the work.
Dudek will respond, in writing, to District comments made during the review process. Dudek will complete
District comment sheets with the responses. Each drawing shall have a certification signature block. The person
who responds to District’s comments will initial and date each drawing sheet upon completing the responses to

month. Reports will include, at a minimum: (1) current activities, (2) future activities, (3) potential items that are
not included in the Scope of Work, (4) concerns, problems and possible delays, (5) percentage of completion,
and (6) budget status.
Schedule: Dudek will generate a detailed project design schedule and update the schedule monthly. Updates
will be submitted monthly with progress reports and will be submitted for review by the tenth day of the
following month. The schedule submittal will include an electronic copy. The schedule will allow for District
review periods. It is understood that the District anticipates the required design time to be six months or sooner.
Billing: Dudek will bill each month for work performed on the project during the previous month. All invoices
will be broken down by task and fee component (labor, overhead, profit, etc.), in a format similar to that
submitted in the proposal. The exact invoice format will be established at the kick-off meeting. The invoices will
reflect monthly progress by task. The monthly progress reports will be submitted timely and completely for
dependable approval and payment.
Task 12: Meetings and Communication
Design Meetings: Dudek will confer with and meet with EVMWD staff to review the work in progress, report
problems and concerns, and receive comments on the Contract Documents as frequently as needed. Dudek
will prepare agendas and conference notes for all meetings and shall submit the notes to EVMWD within three
working days of the meeting. The delivery of each of the design submittals will be complemented with a formal
design review meeting with EMVWD. A final design review meeting may need to be conducted after the 100%
design submittal if District is not satisfied. Dudek’s Project Manager will attend the meetings with the District and
Dudek’s sub-consultants shall attend the meetings, as necessary.
Communication: Dudek will also keep the District informed of all project developments by telephone,
facsimile, email or mail. Dudek will document significant correspondence, including meeting minutes and copy
EVMWD. Dudek will keep a design decision matrix of all significant decisions made between Dudek and
EVMWD affecting the design. The matrix will be regularly updated and submitted to EVMWD.
Special Meetings: Upon request by EVMWD, Dudek will attend meetings that may be required by city, county,
or other agencies. Dudek will prepare displays or materials as is reasonable for those meetings. For the
proposes of our fee proposal, Dudek has included three (3) with agencies and five (5) progress meetings with

E. List of Representative Projects
For the past 35 years, Dudek has successfully completed an array of
pipeline design and rehabilitation projects. Dudek is an industry leader
in trenchless technology. Our rehabilitation approach starts with a
thorough condition assessment and development of alternatives and
recommendations. We have completed dozens of projects using
trenchless technology techniques such as Horizontal Directional Drilling
(HDD), Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP), rehabilitation/lining, microtunneling,
slip-lining, spot repair, spray lining, new installation, and manhole
rehabilitation. The Dudek team recently completed a similar project,
converting an agricultural pipeline for the Temescal Valley Water
District and are familiar with the steps necessary to successfully
complete this project.
In addition, Dudek is experienced in the design of evaluation and sizing of pumps. The Dudek team has
completed multiple pump station modification projects over the past five years, which include repurposing,
modifying, resizing, and relocating pumps.
A summary of recent condition assessment and pipeline rehabilitation projects, design of inlet/outlet structures,
and pump evaluations completed in Southern California by the proposed team includes the following.
Agricultural Pipeline Conversion
Client: Temescal Valley Water District
Client Reference: Jeff Pape, GM 951.277.1414
The agricultural pipeline conversion project included multiple
smaller projects required to reconfigure the existing agricultural
pipeline. The projects included:
Connecting the agricultural pipeline to District water
supplies including the recycled water system and
groundwater wells
Installing diversion and valving structures to control water
flow and direction of supply
Designing new sump well supply structure requiring new pining and control valving
Sliplining portions of the pipeline to increase pressure capacity
The largest of the projects was sliplining portions of the existing pipeline with fused HDPE. Sliplining was
required through sections of pipeline with compromised structural capacity and inadequate pressure rating for
the new water supply scheme. In order to install the sliplined pipe a survey of the existing pipeline was
conducted verifying the location of bends, condition of the pipeline and location of obstructions and trapped
debris. A comprehensive design was completed which included a cleaning directive, sections to be repaired and
portions of the pipeline that needed to be removed prior to sliplining. The project was completed last year with
minimal disruption of service to customers, and the pipeline is currently being used to convey agricultural and
recycled water to customers throughout the Distric.t

LIST OF REPRESENTATIVE PROJECT
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 28
FY 12/13 Sewer Lining Project
Client: City of South Pasadena
Client Reference: Shin Fukukawa, 626.403.7240
The City of South Pasadena contracted with Dudek in 2015 to provide
engineering design services for its Sewer Rehabilitation and Repair
Project, Phase 2. In Phase 1, Dudek's engineers designed
improvements to 230 of the most critical sewer pipes identified--those
designated a Condition Rating of "D" or a Spot Repair of "1"--during a
citywide inspection and condition assessment project. With Phase 1
under construction, Phase 2A included similar rehabilitation design of
approximately 272 pipes (85,590 linear feet (lf)) designated a
Condition Rating of "C" or a Spot Repair Rating of "2". The majority of
these pipes would be rehabilitated using Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP)-
lining technology, with only a few requiring complete replacement. Phase 2B included pipes with a Condition
Rating of "B" and Spot Repair Rating of "3", encompassing 118 pipes totaling approximately 30,484 lf of pipe.
Inland Empire Brineline Reach V Rehab
Client: Santa Ana Watershed Protection Agency
Client Reference: David Ruhl, 951.354.4223
Brine Line Reach V is a 22-mile segment of the overall Inland
Empire Brine Line system, with pipeline ranging in diameter
from 26-inch to 30-inch high-density polyethylene and PVC.
Dudek prepared the preliminary and final design documents
for the redesign and rehabilitation of approximately 38,000
linear feet of the Brine Line Reach V constructed along
Temescal Canyon Road. During the preliminary design phase,
Dudek identified an alternate method of bidding and
construction aimed at significantly lowering overall project costs and construction duration. The approach
combined the installation of the maintenance access structures with the cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining work,
thereby eliminating unnecessary re-excavation for lining access and greatly reducing disruptive shutdowns for
pipe access. The cornerstone of the approach was the use of rapid high-definition closed circuit television and
laser profiling inspection techniques to quickly determine the condition and exact ovality of the pipe. This
allowed the project team to decide whether lining should be performed on a segment by segment basis.
Other project features included the design of a gravity flow bypassing system that allowed up to 11,000 linear
feet of the pipeline to be taken out of service at one time during construction, optimization of the glass
reinforced CIPP liner design, site-specific designs for 27 maintenance access structures, and external
reinstatement of air/vacuum valve and blow-off assemblies following CIPP lining.
Dudek later provided SAWPA Construction Services during the construction phase of the Project, including
coordination with the Design Engineer, Construction Manager, SAWPA, and the Contractor.
LIST OF REPRESENTATIVE PROJECT
DUDEK Regional Agricultural Pipeline Conversion Project 29
Coachella Canals Wasteways Improvements
Client: Coachella Valley Water District
Client Reference: David Wilson, 760.398.2661, Ext 2736
Dudek provided structural evaluation and rehabilitation of four wasteway/evacuation channels, totaling 43,850
linear feet, that drain the East Side Dike for the Coachella Valley Water District. The project included field
investigations and non-destructive evaluation of the existing PCC trapezoidal channels; hydrology and hydraulic
analysis of the aging channels to confirm their conveyance capacity using the latest hydrology methodology
(versus original design methods); preparation of recommended design details and cost estimates; and final
Plan, Specs & Estimates document preparation. The final rehabilitation details included a mix of full structural
section replacements, partial embankment and invert replacement, parapet wall replacement, concrete
patching, and crack sealing. Several inlet/outlet structures were designed as part of this project.
San Sevaine Basin Improvements
Client: Inland Empire Utilities Agency
Client Reference: Joel Ignacio, 909.993.1895
IEUA identified that groundwater water recharge of both surface
water and excess recycled water could be increase substantially if
water could be conveyed to Basins 1, 2 and 3 of the San Sevaine
Recharge Basins. Dudek was hired to prepare design plans for
the construction of approximately 5,000 feet of 30-inch pipe and
provide a means of pumping stored water from Basin 5 to
Basins 1, 2, and 3. As part of the preliminary design, Dudek
identified several design improvements including the use of a
temporary pump station (trailer mounted or rental), and use of
shallow trench plastic conveyance pipe. The resultant project
resulted in IEUA saving over $2,000,000 in construction cost and
another $2,000,000 in O&M cost over the next 10 years.
Coast Hwy 101 Pump Station Rehab and Pipeline Replacement
Client: City of Encinitas
Client Reference: Kipp Hefner, 760.633.2775
Dudek designed and prepared the CEQA documentation for
the rehabilitation of the pump station and forcemain
replacement. To facilitate regulatory and permitting approvals
of the project, Dudek proposed rehabilitation of the pump
station rather than replacement. Dudek also proposed use of
Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) for installation of the
forcemain on a more direct alignment under Coast Highway
101, the San Elijo Lagoon inlet/outlet, and the North County
Transit District (NCTD) train tracks to Dublin Drive. The
recommended HDD alignment avoided the alternative Coast
Highway Bridge crossing with accompanying risk of seismic,
vandalism, or corrosion failure in the immediate vicinity of the San Elijo Lagoon and Cardiff State Beach.
