BOARD AGENDA ITEM 4a
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Randy Curtis, Manager of Field Operations
Julie Ryan, Principal Engineer
MEETING DATE: June 4, 2015
ITEM - PROJECT NAME: 2015 Fire Hydrant Service Expansion/Large Meter Replacement
Project
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: (1) Standardize American Flow Control, Waterous (Model # WB 67-
250-DDP) Fire Hydrant; (2) Standardize AVK Series 27, Nostalgic Style Fire Hydrant; and, (3)
Authorize staff to advertise for bids.
DISCUSSION: In March, 2014, the Board of Directors approved the Mueller Centurion Fire
Hydrant, Model A423 as the standard acceptable hydrant for use on the District's system. The
majority of the existing hydrants in the system are Mueller Centurion.To increase competition
when bidding fire hydrants, while continuing to minimize the required inventory of parts
necessary to respond in emergencies, staff recommends that the District standardize on two
additional models of hydrant, without equal.
(1) Behind Mueller Centurion, AFC Waterous hydrants are the second most common hydrant
found in the District's water system. Waterous hydrants have proven their reliability and have
maintained a long life cycle of in-field use. The Underground Repair, Water crew is trained in
'� the maintenance, repair and rebuilding of these hydrants and keep complete rebuild kits and
� multiple repair parts in inventory for emergency situations. Additionally, parts and service are
readily available in Reno and/or Sacramento. Waterous meets the criteria for grants requiring
"buy American". Staff recommends that the Board standardize American Flow Control,
Waterous fire hydrants.
(2) While the District does not currently have any AVK Series 27 fire hydrants in its system, staff
research has found that they have several �nique and superior components not offered by
other hydrants, including Mueller Centurion and AFC Waterous. These hydrants are assembled
locally in Minden, NV, and parts and service are readily available. AVK Series 27 meets the
criteria for grants requiring "buy American". Staff recommends that the Board standardize AVK
Series 27 fire hydrants.
(3) The 2015 Fire Hydrant Service Expansion Project will install 72 fire hydrants across the water
system. Procurement of the fire hydrants accounts for approximately 25% of the overall cost of

;= the construction project. To increase competition for the hydrant procurement, the hydrants
'' were removed from the construction bid. The intent is to bid the procurement of the hydrants
separately, allowing only the three standardized hydrants to be bid:
� -Mueller Centurion, Model A423
-American Flow Control, Waterous WB 67-250-DDP
-AVK Series 27, Nostalgic Style
x
: The Engineer's estimate for procurement of the hydrants is $250,000. This project will be funded
' in part with USFS Fire Partnership Funding for 2015, which requires Disadvantaged Business
�� Enterprise Good-Faith Effort be met. '���

With Board approval, staff plans to move forward with bidding under the following tentative �

which was installed in 1969. Yesterday afternoon there were power outages causing
complications and the disk that holds the seal to prevent any backflow broke into four pieces.
The company that builds these disks is out of business, which means a new piece will need to
be fabricated by staff in order to repair it. Staff gave kudos to the pumps crew for having the
skills to fabricate this new piece.

BOARD AGENDA ITEM �b
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: John Thiel, Engineering Department Manager
MEETING DATE: June 4, 201 S
ITEM - PROJECT NAME: 2015 Water Meter Irntallation Project
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: (1) Reject the bid protest by Thomas Haen Company, Inc.; ;
(2) Waive the three irregularities in the Vinciguerra Construction bid as minor and
immaterial; and, (3) Award the 2015 Water Meter Installation Proj�ct to Vinciguerra
Construction as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in the amount of
$2,045,300.
DISCUSSION: This project includes the installation of approximately 900 water meters at
existing service connections. Four bids were received and reviewed on Thursday, April
30, 2015, with Vinciguerra Construction (VC) as the apparent low bidder with three
deviations identified. At the May 7, 2015, Board Meeting, staff recommended that the
Board award the bid to VC as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder in the amount of
$2,045,300. However, the second low bidder, Thomas Haen Company, Inc. (Haen),
submitted a bid protest and the bid award was delayed pending staffs' assessment of
the protest.
The basis of the Haen protest is the use and applicability of Underground Utility (UU)
Worker classifications for construction of the District's 2014 meter project (See
attachments). These classifications have lower pay rates than the Laborer classifications
that have been used on previous District waterline and meter projects. They are also
lower than the Plumber-Pipefitter classification which may be used for meter installation
projects. The primary question- Is the UU worker classification applicable to the District's
water meter installation projects?
To answer this question, staff reviewed the approved Scope or Work published on the
CA Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) website for each classification of concern -
The UU, Plumber, and Laborer classifications. We found the Scope for the UU worker
ciassification to be very broad and includes "...utility and utility pipeline construction ...
including construction, fabrication, installation, flushing and testing of water utilities ...
—27—
� �'I
� �
'� John Thiel '
� May 21, 2015
Page 2
` including ... digging by manual methods, backfilling, tamping, resurfacing and paving"
� with reference to distribution supply piping, fittings and valves, trench-shoring and shovel
work.
`�
Staff has concluded that this scope certainly includes the work performed on the water
y meter installation projects. While the Plumber-Pipefitter and Laborer classifications also
� include some elements of the meter installation work, that does not preclude the UU
` worker from completing that work, albeit at a lower pay scale. Staff has also contacted
the City of Sacramento and Sacramento Suburban Water District-both have meter
projects where contractors have used the UU worker classification. Also, our recent
communication with the DIR (see attached DIR letter) supports this con�lusion.
Ultimately, the contractor-not the District-is responsible for paying the correct wage
; rates and confirming and reporting the same with the DIR. In a case where the DIR finds
an incorrect classification and/or wage rate, the contractor will be compelled to make
� adjustments and restitution as required.
Staff finds that the UU worker classification is applicable to the 2015 meter project and
that it has been used appropriately on the 2014 meter project. Furthermore, there is no
basis to find VC nonresponsive or not-responsible based on performance, non-
performance, or due to any labor compliance issues related the ongoing 2014 project.
Certainly any violations found will be remedied as per contract, as well as State
; Prevailing Wage Law, and Federal Davis Bacon Law.
,�
,
s Staff also does not find that the use or possible use of this UU classification by VC for the
2015 bid provided a competitive advantage because this information is widely available
h to all contractors including publication on the DIR website. It is the contractor's
a' responsibility (and risk) to select the appropriate worker classification for the project.
Staff recommends that the Board reject the Haen bid protest, waive the three
'� irregularities in the VC bid as minor and immaterial, and award the bid to Vinciguerra
,
Construction as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder in the amount of$2,045,300.

RE: 2015 Water Meter Projcct
Subject: Response to Letter Dated May7th, 2015
Mr. John Thiel,
This letter is in response to the letter dated May 7`h, 2015 from Thomas Haen Company
("THC")regarding the 2015 Water Mcter Replacement. As Vinciguerra Construction
(`=VC")was on thc council agenda with a recommendation to award as the lowest
responsive/responsible bidder prior to the letter from THC we are a real party in interest
and respectfully respond to the arguments set forth in THC's letter. The arguments are
italicized and our response is standard font one si�e larger.
"The Thomas Ilaen Company believes that!he bid from Vinciguerra Construction should be found non-
responsive or non-responsible because they have not paid the required wages for the South Tahoe PUD
project."
TIIC-An Underground Utility Wurker/Lundscape Fitter Prevailing wage rate was paid on the 2014 Wuter
.Lleter Project. We be/ieve the rate on this project should be based on the Calijornia Prevailing Wage
Laborers Rate for Northen California, Area 2, Group 1 B
Response: VC paid Underground Utility Pipe Worker on the 2014 project. The scope of
work and wage is approved and adopted as prevailing wage by the State of California and
Davis Bacon; covers all utility and underground pipeline construction work performed in
the construction, fabrication, installation,reconditioning, flushing, testing, chlorinating,
maintenance,or repair of water utitities. Including digging by manual methods,
backfilling, tamping, resurfacing, and pavin� of all ditches. �
THC- The specifications for this project stated that California Prevailing Wage and Federal Davis Bacon
Wage Xequirementc apply and that you must pay the higher of the rates,for each classification. Utility
Worker/Landscape Fitter is not recognized in the Davis Bacon wage requirements and therefnre ymu would
have to pay the higher c[assification rate in the Nor[hern Culifornia Laborers prevailing wage rate.

Response: As per Add.No.l Dated 4/24/15 pg. 37/43 of the Pederal Wage
; Detcrmination's, Underground Utility Worker is recognized. If both State and Federal
§
< rates apply which they do on lhe 2015 project the contractor is required to pay the higher
' of the two. The State Prevailing Wage for IJnderground Utility Worker is $.15 higher
'� than the Federal Prevailing Wage therefare in this case we would pay State Prevailing
' Wage as it is the higher of the two rates.
THC- We do not believe that a Landscape Fitter is an appropriate classification for the work being done
on the 2014 project or proposed for the 2015 project. We do no[believe[hu! Vinciguerra Construction is in
'= conformance with State Law and should 6e disgualified from this project.
f
Response: We agree Landscape Fitter is not an appropriate classification and did not pay
or argue that Landscape Fitter is an appropriate classification. Please refer to responses
above. Vinciguerra Construction has providcd all documents and information requested
`' to the Districts labor compliance firm. We are complying with all State Prevailing Wage
;
Laws and in the event we are out of compliance the projecl is still active an ongoing,
corrections would be made.
CONCLUSION
The letter from THC, delivered after the 5/7/15 board meeting had already started is a last
< minute frivolous attempt by a disappointed competing bidder to somchow steer and get
the award for the project and/or prevent the award of contract to the lowest bidder. It does
not appear that any of the points of THC's letter referenced any statues, bid
� specifications, law, or otherwise supported by factual information. The arguments lack
merit and a.re misguided and are merely an opinion. Prevailing VVage Law is
misrepresented as evidenced in the arguments set forth and responded to above. VC has
provided all documents and information to the District's labor compliance firm and is
; w�orking closely with district staff to resolve any issues. Accordingly,Vinciguerra
; Construction respectfully requests the district to find THC's"Protest" lcttcr Dater 5/7/15
� to be without merit and unsupportcd and therefore rejected and the recommendation to
award the project to Vinciguerra Construction as the lowest responsive/responsible bidder
reaffirmed at the next Board Meeling.

Sub�ect: STPUD 2015 Water Meters Bid Protest
Dear John
During the preparation af the bid for the 2015 Water Meter Installation Pro�ect it was learned by Thomas Haen
Company that three class�f�cations were being paid on the 2014 project that we don t believe are the proper
classifications ar wage rates We also believe that using these wage rates gave Vlnciguerra Construction a
substantial advantage in the bidding of the 2015 Water Meter Pro�ect.
The classificat�ons that the Thomas Haen Company used in estimating this b�d were reached in the following
manner.
First it must be determined wh�ch dass�ficat�ons pertam to the work being performed in the contract. This is
done by reviewing the plans and specifications The specifications have several descnptions of the work:

Based on the above references. �t must be determined that a bidder must find the a ro nate ciassifi i s in I
� pp p cat on
° �oth the Federai Davis-Bacon V�iage Requirements and the Cailfomia Prevailing Wage Determina4ions Then, '
a bidder must deterrnine which rate is higher and pay the h�gher rate for each classificatior. '

'; The Davis Bacon rate for a California Laborer Area B Constructien Speciallst is �46.75 The Calrfomia DIR
. Vndex 2015-1 Northem Cafifornia Laborer Area 2 Construction Specialist fs 54829
In th�s c�rcumstance then. a bidder must use the Cal�fornia DIR rate because ft is higher.
'� I� terms of ciass�ficaUors Cal�forn�a DIR requ�res a bidder to determine appropnate wage by utilizing the Mdex
ZO?5-7 Ger�eral Pre�aitn�p Wage„'ourneymai�Determrnations(http:llwww.dir ca.govtOPRL/PWD/index_htm).
The instructions on this website are cleas in selecting cfassifications to meet the needs of a project. A bidder is
requ�red to start at step one and analyze the basic trades to see if a particular craft is listed and if not to move
on to step two Once a bidder has founC the general description of the craft. they must stop and pay that
inrage They may nct move on and pay a lower rate.
fn step twa you wili find the class�f:catia^ for the California DIR Northern Californfa Laborer craft. It says the
s followang items that re!ate to this project ASPHALT IRONERS A/VD RAKERS. PRESSURE PIPELAYERS.

� GAR�ENER HORT/GULTURAL AND LANDSCAPE LABORERS. These classifications match almost
� identically to the Federal Davis Bacon descriptions for laborers and the specificatian divisions above. The
� appropr+ate rate for the above descr�ptions �s S47.34-$48.29.
Step three only relates to San O�ego County sc you must skip to step four and select Ei Darado County Under
` ihat county aetermination there is a Plumber. Pipefitter rate specific to the Lake Tahoe Sasin area of Eldorado
' County. The descnption is as follows PLUMBER:PLUMBER. P/PEFITTER PLUMBER, PlPEFITTER
� HE�PER!N PORTlON OF RLPINE EL DORADO, NEU"ADA AND PLACER COUNTIES LY/NG !N THE
:; rA�fOE BASIN AREA 2. Ail piping far�vater filters. waier softeners water rneters. ar�d tite settrrzg of fhe same.
� 4 All water services from mains to buildings. including water meters and water meter foundations. The rate for
th;s classification is �47 25.
The classifications being paid on the fabor port►on of the work on the 2014 Water Meter Installation Project
were listed as be�ng Underground Util,ty Pipefitters $38.40, Underground Utility Assistant Joumeyman $27.40.
and Underground Utility Tradesman S22 70. The first rate listed is the only journeyman rate with the following
twc being apprentices or heipers of the�ourneyman rate. The only rate that these three can be cross
referenced to in Davis-Bacon is �Under�round UtiUtv Worker2andscape Fitfer'at 537.80 an hour. No
:; description is pro�ided with th�s rate either on the Federal Department of Labor website or in the project
" specifications. In Galifarn�a very few union contractors are signatory to the Unde;ground Utility Worker 355
' Un�on and when they are the contractor is usually a landscape contractor. Examples are Decker Landscaping
� Ir,c �CA Contractors C-27 �andscaping#810854), and Takehara Landscaping Inc (CA Contractors C-27
,
Landscaping#2845541
}
Based on the above we believe that Vinciguerra used these lower rates in order to gain a significant
; advantage in provid�ng iower urnt costs on bid �tems. The awarding body should have determined ahead of
' time what the appropriate rate was from the California Department of Industrial Relations and published those
; rates The district has provided an advantage to Vinciguerra Construction by allowing the lower rate to move
� forward in the process The bidders providing the second and third lowest bid did not pr�ce this project using
���
,;

the lower rates. Giver this information Vinc�guerra should be found non-responsive or non-responsible and the
bid shouid be disqualified from consideration
We apprec�ate ��our t�me and dil�gence �n this matter. Please let us know if you need anyth�r,g eise Thank you.

RE: 2015 Water Meter Project
Subject: Response to Haen Follow Up Letter 5.15.15
Dear Mr. John Thiel,
Both Vinciguerra, Thomas Haen; and any other parties opinion is moot. They have no
jurisdiction in determining the appropriate classification. The DIR director has the sole
responsibility for establishing the prevailing wage rates for all classifications of workers
and scope of work provisions and will make the final determination on the correct
classification for the projects. (DLSE v. Ericsson Information Services, Inc. (1990) 221
Cal. App.3d 114.) VC will comply and pay any final determined rate and/or classification
as applicable by the DIR director.
Vinciguerra Construction is fully aware of it's obligation of compliance with prevailing
wage laws and is prepared to meet it's obligation on all projects and will continue to
work extensively with the districts labor compliance consultant.
Accordingly, Vinciguerra Construction respectfully requests the district find THC's
protest to be without merit and unsupported as Vinciguerra Construction will comply
with a final classification determination from the DIR director; recommendation to award
the project to Vinciguerra Construction as the lowest responsive/responsible bidder be
reaffirmed at the next board meeting.
Sincerely,
Austin Vinciguerra,
Vinciguerra Construction

Settlement Negotiations
(Evidence Code Section 1152 et seq.)
May 27, 2015
Bruce Grego, Esq.
2262 Barton Avenue
South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150
Re: Settlement Agreement for Water Service to Project 3 Development Area
Dear Mr. Grego,
We are in receipt of your May 11, 2015 letter regarding the Settlement Agreement, as amended,with respect to the
division of water service to the Project 3 Development Area. As we understand,your letter reflects the current position
of the Lakeside Park Association ("LPA") Board of Directors. The District staff discussed LPA's concerns with the District's
Board of Directors during the District's Board of Directors' meeting on May 21, 2015.
The District's Board of Directors believes that a meeting would be beneficial, in lieu of continuing to exchange letters,to
allow everyone an opportunity to fully discuss this important matter. The District's Board of Directors previously
appointed an ad hoc committee,consisting of Directors Jones and Sheehan,to address this matter. The District would
make available the ad hoc committee, District staff and our general counsel, Gary Kvistad,to meet the LPA Board
members and you. In order for Gary Kvistad to attend in person, a meeting scheduled near one of the District's regular
Board meetings would be preferable. As an example in June, a meeting on June 3�d or the morning of lune 4`h would be
the next available window. The next similar times would be around the June 18th regular Board meeting,lune 17`h,the
morning of June 18`h and the morning of June 19`h. Let us know if any of these dates and times are convenient for the
LPA Board members and you.
In reference to your comments concerning the 2007 Amendment to the Settlement Agreement,the District's
interpretation is based on standard practices within the water utility industry for the provision of water
service. Generally,water service is typically not specific to a particular property owner, but to the property itself,as
ownership often changes from time-to-time. Consequently,the reference to a specific developer in the 2007
Amendment was not meant to be personal to that developer as that was the developer who happened to own the
Project 3 development Area at that time. The fact that the developer has now changed does not alter the underlying
capacity and permit rights,such as those recognized by TRPA, upon which the 2007 Amendment was based,which have
not changed.
For sake of discussion purposes only, let's assume your interpretation is correct and the 2007 Amendment is void. In
that unlikely event,the parties are then bound by the original Settlement Agreement only, which is still acceptable to
the District. However, since the LPA Board now desires to renegotiate the terms of the settlement, it would be helpful if
the LPA Board members and you could come prepared to the meeting to present your proposed alternate
arrangement(s)and explain why you believe LPA is entitled to such an alternate arrangement(s). The District is open to
listen to the LPA proposal but is under no obligation to make any changes to the current settlement arrangements.
We look forward to meeting with the LPA Board members at a mutually convenient time.
Sincerely,
�E���
�°��"�

General Manager
