Utility Advisory Committee Memo Date: May 14, 2013 To: Utility Advisory Committee From: Brian Smith, Deputy Police Chief Phil Lusk, Deputy Director of Power and Telecommunications Systems Subject: Wireless Mobile Data System, Project CL05 2011 Final Acceptance Summary: Capacity Provisioning, Inc., of Port Angeles, WA has completed the construction contract for Project CL05 -2011, the Wireless Mobile Data System that was funded with a grant provided by the Northwest Open Access Network under the Broadband Technologies Opportunities Program. The work has been substantially inspected and accepted as complete in the amount of $2,705,087.83, including applicable taxes. The last payment of the retainage now being held will be made upon final acceptance in an amount of $255,092.58. Recommendation: Forward a favorable recommendation to City Council to accept Project CL05 -2011, the Wireless Mobile Data System funded by the Northwest Open Access Network with a grant from the Broadband Technologies Opportunities Program, and authorize release of the final payment of $255,092.58. Background /Analysis: On June 19, 2006, City Council incorporated the Wireless Technology Plan as part of the City's annual Capital Facilities Plan for the Police and Fire Departments. In early 2010, the City submitted a sub -grant application in cooperation with the Northwest Open Access Network (NoaNet) under the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP). The City's sub -grant included an initial system -level design within the City and the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe (LEKT), which was performed by the City's technical consultant Columbia Telecommunication Corporation (CTC). This initial system -level design comprised a total of 240 wireless access points and 44 interconnections to the fiber optic network operated under the Metropolitan Area Network Services Agreement. Communications equipment necessary for vehicles was also included in the sub -grant application for the City (Police, Fire and Public Works and Utilities Departments), Fire Districts 2 and 3, Clallam County Sheriff, and the LEKT. Upon the recommendation of the Police Chief, the Fire Chief, the Director of Community and Economic Development, and the Director of Public Works Utilities, City Council approved a Initial Contract Amendment #2 Total Contract Final Cost $2,577,922.50 $127,166.11 $2,705,088.61 $2,705,087.83 Project Number CL05 -201 I Final Acceptance, Wireless Mobile Data System May 14, 2013 Page 2 Wireless Mobile Data System (WMDS) Acquisition and Integration Agreement (Agreement) with Capacity Provisioning, Inc. (CPI) using the BTOP grant as the source of funds on December 13, 2011. On July 17, 2012, City Council approved Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $48,422.27 for in -car cameras for public safety, which was funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. This component was later removed from the project scope at the mutual request of both parties, and the funding authority was administratively de- obligated from the Agreement. Initial construction began on July 2, 2012. City Council approved previously planned changes as Amendment #2 to the Agreement and authorized the commencement of the last phase of construction on September 4, 2012. This effort used a $127,127.00 contingency fund that was previously approved by City Council, which was also a part of the City's required cash match under the BTOP grant. The project was substantially completed on November 29, 2012 and physically completed on March 8, 2013. The project has been substantially inspected and determined to be complete. Project management and final project inspection is being performed by CTC and City staff. A copy of the City's final acceptance plan for the WMDS is provided. The final project inspection includes a review of the project's "As- Built" drawings as submitted by CPI. Following the budget modifications, the final contracted amount for the NoaNet BTOP related components of the WMDS was $2,705,088.61.

Utility Advisory Committee Memo Date: May 14, 2013 To: Utility Advisory Committee From: Michael Puntenney, P.E., City Engineer Subject: Upgrade and Expansion of Wastewater Utility Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System, Project W W02 -2010 Phase 1 Summary: Project W W02 -2010 provides for the upgrade and expansion of the Wastewater Utility's Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System. Authorization is sought to implement phases A B for this project. Recommendation: Forward a favorable recommendation to City Council to approve and authorize the City Manager to: 1) Amend the 2013 budget for project WW02 -2010 to $730,103 from sources identified in the memo; and 2) authorize the City Manager to sign a contract with Technical Services, Inc of Lynnwood, Washington in the amount of $570,103 including taxes; and 3) authorize the City Manager to sign purchase orders in the amount of $125,000 for supporting IT equipment for the project. Background /Analysis: Project W W02 -2010 provides for the upgrade and expansion of the Wastewater Utility's Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System. The SCADA system controls and automatically actuates many functions across the wastewater treatment process, notifying WWTP personnel through alarms to serious conditions in the plant, and acquiring and recording a myriad of data readings in the plant. Essentially, it is the single most important system in the plant, being its logic control system. The existing system was installed in 1993 and its information technology systems and hardware are highly out of date, obsolete, and/or inefficient. The system has key components such as programming logic controllers (PLC) that are the original equipment. PLCs are essentially nothing more than special purpose, industrial computers. As such, they are built far more ruggedly than an ordinary personal computer (PC), and designed to run extremely reliable operating system software. PLCs as a rule do not contain hard disk drives, cooling fans, or any other components with moving parts. This is an intentional design decision, intended to maximize the reliability of the hardware in harsh industrial environments where the PLC chassis may be subjected to temperature extremes, vibration, humidity, and airborne particulates (dust, fibers, and /or fumes). The Wastewater Utility's contains many of the original Texas Instrument 505 and 555 PLCs which are obsolete and no longer supported. In addition, the system lacks many of the control points needed to efficiently operate in Upgrade and Expansion of Wastewater Utility SCADA System, Project W W02 -2010 May 14, 2013 Page 2 today's highly regulated environs. A lot of field infrastructure including most pump stations and CSO outfalls are either not fully integrated or not controlled at all by the WWTP. In addition, data acquisition is not sufficient, leaving significant data gaps or inefficiencies. The new system proposed in this project will integrate into data servers that can be managed efficiently with existing City IT systems. The project will be a multiphase project, with work spanning up to a five (5) year period. En addition, maintenance and support will occur during this term with the option to extend maintenance and support for five (5) additional years. The contract contains for phases: Phase A Design, Upgrade, and Replace Existing WWTP SCADA system. The existing equipment is to be replaced including modern programmable logic controllers (PLCs) for four (4) control panels and other associated equipment, such as computers, information technology, networking, and software improvements. Bidder will provide upgrade design, integration, installation, and programming to implement the same or similar configuration with improved functionality of the existing SCADA system. The primary system will have control redundancy and all units (including networking equipment within this scope) will have UPS power protection with battery backup. Phase B CSO Phase I Applications Programming. The CSO Phase 1 project that is currently under construction provides new sewer interceptors, tanks, facilities, upgrades, and improvements to the wastewater plant and infrastructure. The work of this SCADA phase includes all necessary programming required to provide a complete SCADA system integration of the new CSO Phase 1 infrastructure into the City's SCADA system. There are six control panels and four PLCs associated with this that require applications programming. Future Phase C Offsite Facilities not at Existing WWTP or CSO. This Phase of the project will replace offsite controllers with modern controllers as designed for the systems provided in Phase A. There are three (3) offsite control panels connected through fiber optic networks owned by the CITY. There are ten (10) additional sites without existing communications into the SCADA control system for a total of thirteen (13) sites included in this phase. Future Phase D CSO Phase 2 Applications Programming. The CSO Phase 2 construction contract will replace the CJTY's pump station number 4 (PS4) entirely, replace gravity sewer mains in the downtown area, as well as alterations to CSO outfalls 6, 7, and 8. The work of this SCADA phase includes all necessary programming required to provide a complete SCADA system integration of the new CSO Phase 2 infrastructure into the City's SCADA system. Programming will be done with to the WWTP SCADA system and compatible with the Phase A implementation of this contract. Only Phases A B and service maintenance is being awarded at this time. Phases C D are included within the scope of this project and will be awarded after City Council approval in future years. The City solicited proposals for the upgrade and expansion of the Wastewater Utility's Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System, Project WW02 -2010 on March 8, 2013. The City advertised in the Daily Journal of Commerce (Seattle Edition), Peninsula Daily News, Builders Exchange of Washington, as well as direct notification to numerous SCADA system integrators. Proposals were due on April 15, 2013. Only one proposal was received from Technical Systems, Inc., of Lynnwood Line Item Description Original Proposal Final Negotiated Price 1 Phase A WWTP Upgrade Mobilization /Data Collection $22,000 Bonding $8,000 Project Management $16,000 Engineering $48,000 Programming $149,000 Equipment Purchase $145,000 Fabrication $21,000 Factory Acceptance Test $13,000 Startup, Commissioning, and Training $43,000 Phase A Total $599,250 $486,000 2 Phase B CSO Phase 1 $39,925 $39,925 3 1st Year Maintenance $6,000 $0 4 Minor Changes $20,000 $0 Subtotal $665,175 $525,925 Taxes (8.4 Phase A Maintenance $55,875 $44,178 Total $721,050 $570,103 Washington. A Technical Evaluation Board of Maher Abed, Michael Szatlocky, and Gary Richmond evaluated the proposal for compliance with the terms of the specification and determined their proposal to satisfy the requirements, having significant experience, qualifications, and a superior service record. Michael Puntenney from the City and Nathan Palmatier of Conley Engineering, Inc. performed the cost evaluation and negotiations. The following is a summary of the original proposed cost and final negotiated amounts: Additionally, there are supporting upgrades the city's Information Technology Division has brought forth to integrate this with their long range IT strategies for city computer systems and to ensure system redundancy for the city's server, network connectivity and backup strategy. The current SCADA systems have no system data storage, hardware, software redundancy or failover capability. They currently also do not reside on an industry defined server, but rather in the case of the WWTP, is on a desktop personal computer. This presents serious risk to the City in the event of a failure. While these IT upgrades were not part of the original CFP budget request for this project, they are considered by both the Public Works and IT staff's as essential to eliminating these vulnerabilities in the system for this critical infrastructure. The IT division has identified two possible separate strategies for this implementation. Their preferred strategy provides both a primary redundancy initially with the ability for the system architecture to grow with the addition of other SCADA systems such as PAWTP and the Electric Utility's with the ability of secondary redundancy. This will be done with the primary system residing at the facility and the emergency roll over and capabilities residing at the City's disaster redundancy (DR) data center located at the Corps Yard. In the event of a hardware /software failure at the primary, the systems will automatically rollover to the primary or secondary system for continued operation. With this system configuration, all systems will be backed up nightly to both a primary and secondary backup site with eventual repository at a external eastern Washington location. This strategy is estimated to cost approximately $125,000 and encompasses the primary system for WWTP and the primary redundant system residing at the DR data center. Data storage and capability has been built into the primary Budget Source Budget Account Budget Amount 2013 W W02 -2010 Project Budget 453- 7488 -594 -6510 $525,000 2013 WWTP SCADA Maintenance 403 7480 -535 -4810 $15,600 2012 WWTP Server Upgrade 403 7480 -594 -6410 $16,500 2013 WW27 -1999 Project Reprogramming 453- 7488 -594 -6510 $173,003 Total $730,103 Upgrade and Expansion of Wastewater Utility SCADA System. Project WW02-2010 May 14, 2013 Page 2 redundant system for redundancy for both PAWTP and Electrical. Their primary replacement will be budgeted separately in the CFP for the actual location and site. This strategy allows for the entire SCADA network to remain secure as well as the ability to have many functions of a "Private Cloud" based solution. Also encompassed into this the strategy of Thin Client capabilities for workstations and possible secure wireless mesh capabilities of SCADA communications and monitoring in the field at pumps, lift stations and other supporting structures. The secondary strategy is less desirable since it eliminates the primary redundancy system located at the DR datacenter as well as additional capabilities for other future SCADA systems. This limits the WWTP /CSO system redundancy to only its own minimal hard drive redundancy as well as redundant power supplies. No overall total system or software redundancy will be available. Additionally, no communication redundancy will be available. Thin Client capabilities for workstations and remote access will also be unavailable since it was to reside on the system at the DR site for load balancing. This strategy is estimated to cost $75,000 for the server and its software. Currently, the City has contracted for $25,000 on design for this project. Implementing the preferred IT strategy and with a $10,000 contingency, the total project budget would require $730,103 to complete phases A B. If the secondary IT strategy is used, the total project budget would require $680,103 to complete phases A B. Currently, staff has identified $525,000 of available budget for this work. In addition, the staff is recommending reprogramming $163,003 from project WW27 -1999, Biennial Sewer Replacements for this project and carrying forward from 2012 $16,500 of WWTP server upgrade funding from the operations budget. In addition, from the 2013 budget, the annual SCADA maintenance will not be required due to the upgrade and is requested to be used for the project. The following table summarizes the budget sources. Recommend forwarding a favorable recommendation to City Council to approve and authorize the Ci y Manager to: 1) Amend the 2013 budget for project WW02 -2010, phase 1 to $730,103 from sources identified in the memo; and 2) authorize the City Manager to sign a contract with Technical Services, Inc of Lynnwood, Washington in the amount of $570,103 including taxes; and 3) authorize the City Manager to sign purchase orders in the amount of $125,000 for supporting IT equipment for the project. PORTANGELES W A S H I N G T O N U.S.A. Utility Advisory Committee Memo Date: May 14, 2013 To: Utility Advisory Committee From: Rick Hostetler, Customer Service Manager Byron Olson, Chief Financial Officer Subject: Utility Account Write -Offs Summary: The amount of utility account write -offs in the past four years has remained near the same amount, at an annual average of just over $115,000. The attached table summarizes the dollar amounts related to Final Delinquency Processing, as well as the total write off amounts per month and year since 2009. This does not include the large losses due to industrial accounts. Recommendation: For information only. Background /Analysis: After utility accounts are final billed as a result of an account holder closing their utility account, the balance owing on an account either gets transferred to the account holder's new address or goes through Final Delinquency Processing. After this process is completed, any balance on the account still due is sent to a collection agency, and is written off and removed from the City account receivables. The attached table shows dollar amounts for each year and month since 2009. Final Delinquency Processing requires that a minimum of three notices are mailed requesting payment or that satisfactory payment arrangements are made for the amount due on the final account balance. As each notice progresses the customer is informed in a stronger manner that the amount due can be transferred to a collection agency for collection and additional fees and costs can incur if payment or arrangements are not made. During this process skip tracing occurs, payment arrangements are made and monitored, phone calls are delivered, and the City makes every attempt to work with the customer. The final process of writing off the account occurs after all attempts at collecting have been exhausted. The write off amount for every month is not directly related to the Final Delinquency Process of that month because the amount may be an accumulation of previous months of uncollectables. Utility Account Write -Offs May 14, 2013 Page 2 The City has 10,000 to 11,000 utility accounts, in which an average of 2,300 hundred accounts are past due each month.

Utility Advisory Committee Memo Date: May 14, 2013 To: Utility Advisory Committee From: Tom McCabe, Solid Waste Superintendent Subject: Clallam Spring Clean Up Event Summary: The Clallam Spring Clean Up event was held April 21, 2013 from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. The public response to this event consisted of 554 vehicles disposing of 183.58 tons of solid waste. Of the total tonnage, 19% of the waste materials were separated for recycling (metals, tires, yard waste, oil, and antifreeze). Participants donated $6,018 to the Port Angeles Food Bank. The number of participants decreased 14% and tonnage was down 12% from last year. Recommendation: For information only, no action requested. Background /Analysis: The Benefit Dump Day event was renamed "Clallam Spring Clean Up" in 2012 to encourage cleaning up properties in the City and Clallam County. Participants donated $10 per load to the Port Angeles Food Bank. Participants and disposal tonnage decreased by 14% and 12 respectively, from last year's event. A waiting line developed at the gate prior to opening at 9:00 AM and it took less than 30 minutes to clear. Participant traffic flowed fairly steady throughout the rest of the day. City staff, County staff, Waste Connections staff, Food Bank Board members, and Police Volunteers worked the six hour event. City staff checked vehicle loads, managed the metal pile, and weighed vehicles at the scales. Clallam County staff assisted at the used oil /antifreeze area.
