DISCUSSION: Staff would like to purchase a total of 18 large water meters, parts & meter lids to replace outdated devices currently in field use. To ensure that all parts will perform with the District’s electronic meter reading system, the District only purchases meter and parts manufactured by Sensus (as authorized by the Board on May 21, 2009). Western Nevada Supply is the sole source supplier for Sensus in this area. This item has been reviewed by the District’s Purchasing Agent.

Jones Randy Vogelgesang Kelly Sheehan Duane Wallace 6 Stephen Caswell February 15, 2018 Page 2 BOARD AGENDA ITEM 4d TO: Board of Directors FROM: Stephen Caswell, Senior Engineer MEETING DATE: February 15, 2018 ITEM – PROJECT NAME: Temporary Engineering Staffing REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: 1) Approve Contract with Blue Ribbon Temporary Personnel for a temporary engineering student intern, in an amount not to exceed $50,000; and, 2) Approve Contract with Blue Ribbon Temporary Personnel for a part- time engineer, in an amount not to exceed $80,000. DISCUSSION: Staff requests that the Board authorize payment to Blue Ribbon Personnel for a temporary engineering intern position from May 2018 through December 2018 and a part-time engineer position from May 2018 through June 2019. The Engineering Department’s regular mission is to provide cost-effective planning, design, and inspection services on District projects. In addition to the regular mission, the Engineering Department has been tasked with installing another roughly 4,000 meters over the next three seasons as well as collecting data and other information on the condition of the District’s assets (particularly on the collection system) to inform the upcoming Proposition 218 process. Since 2005, the Engineering Department has hired anywhere from one to three interns, depending on departmental workload, except for 2012, to help meet the department’s mission. Currently, the department has zero interns. The previous intern met the 1,000 hour limit in mid-December 2017. To continue moving forward with this time-critical work while still deferring other less time sensitive work, the department has identified the need for another engineering intern and a part-time engineer. Both positions would be hired through Blue Ribbon and be limited to 1,000 hours per fiscal year. Adding a part-time engineer is a different approach than the department has historically taken, but provides the following benefits. A part-time engineer provides the department with additional qualified staff that can move forward higher level tasks. The part-time engineer may also help provide continuity within the department that is missing with a six-month intern position. General Manager Richard H. Solbrig Directors Chris Cefalu James R. Jones Randy Vogelgesang Kelly Sheehan Duane Wallace 7 Stephen Caswell February 15, 2018 Page 2 The estimated cost for the 2017/18 fiscal year for the two positions is $24,903. The current budget has just over $27,000 remaining for additional engineering staff support through the end of the fiscal year. Therefore, there is no impact to this year’s budget. The remaining costs that are being requested would be part of the 2018/19 fiscal year budget. SCHEDULE: Upon Board approval of contract COSTS: $130,000 ACCOUNT NO: 1029-4405; 2209-4405 BUDGETED AMOUNT AVAILABLE: <$138,143>; $265,763 (2017/18) $508,000; $793,000 (2018/19 Proposed) ATTACHMENTS: N/A _____________________________________________________________________________________ CONCURRENCE WITH REQUESTED ACTION: CATEGORY: Sewer & Water GENERAL MANAGER: YES NO CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER: YES NO 8 Julie Ryan February 15, 2018 Page 2 BOARD AGENDA ITEM 4e TO: Board of Directors FROM: Julie Ryan, Principal Engineer MEETING DATE: February 15, 2018 ITEM – PROJECT NAME: 2018 Marlette Waterline/Meter Installation Project REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: Authorize staff to advertise for construction bids for the 2018 Marlette Waterline/Meter Installation Project. DISCUSSION: The 2018 Marlette Waterline/Meter Installation Project consists of the installation of 1,100 linear feet of 6 inch water main and the associated 39 water services, 109 water meters, and 6 fire hydrants in the Marlette Circle neighborhood of South Lake Tahoe (Marlette Circle, Mount Rose Road, Heavenly Valley Road, Monument Drive, and Jobs Peak Road). The Marlette neighborhood currently has undersized water mains located in the backyards of the parcels served. To facilitate full metering of the District’s service area, replacement of the backyard water mains with water mains in the public right-of-way is needed. Upsizing and moving the water mains into public right-of-way also allows the installation of fire hydrants to improve fire protection for the neighborhood. Water meters for all water services will be installed. After completion of the project, those customers with backyard water services will be given until September 1, 2019, to relocate their water service and submit the cost to the District for reimbursement. Plans and specifications are currently being finalized by staff. The current schedule is to advertise for bids beginning February 16, with a bid opening of April 4, and construction to be completed this summer beginning May 1 and finishing by the end of July. The project is funded by the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Loan Program. The engineer’s estimate for the project, based on recent bid results and general bidding climate, is $860,000.00.

STAFF/ATTORNEY REPORTS: Staff reported the communication at the Ad-Hoc City/District meetings is working and is being reflected in the work collaboration with the City on projects that are in progress. Staff reported the District has created a fact sheet with frequently asked questions for the Groundwater PCE Contamination on the District’s website and that a link has been created to livestream the Groundwater PCE Contamination meeting on Wednesday, February 7. The link can be found at stpud.us/groundwater. Staff reported the District has mailed letters to the 22 residents in the Ponderosa area that need to relocate their water line connections due to the District’s relocation of the water main to the street, which the District will reimburse for those relocation fees. Attorney Kvistad reported that the District has experienced difficulties in obtaining timely State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) legal review of agreements for State Revolving Fund financing. This subject was discussed at a recent California Association of Sanitation Agencies (CASA) attorneys meeting as other agencies are experiencing similar problems. CASA is spearheading a discussion with the SWRCB to determine if the legal review problems can be addressed in order to improve the SWRCB legal review and approval process.

DISCUSSION: In the past, the District has issued annual permits for cattle grazing on the District’s Diamond Valley Ranch property. Staff is requesting authorization to proceed with a request for proposals to establish a cattle grazing permit for a term of five years. The intent of establishing a five-year term is to attract a cattle rancher who will establish a vested interest in the District’s grazing pastures for the term of the permit. It is hoped that increasing the length of the term will in turn increase the revenue generation potential of the District’s Diamond Valley Ranch property. Moreover, establishing a term of five years for the grazing permit would enable the District and its permitted cattle rancher to become eligible for possible financial assistance from the Natural Resources Conservation Service with the intent of improving resource conservation and ranching infrastructure on the District’s Diamond Valley Ranch property.

Hussmann, Human Resources Director MEETING DATE: February 15, 2018 ITEM – PROJECT NAME: Workers’ Compensation Program REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: 1) Approve moving the District’s Workers’ Compensation Program to Association of California Water Agencies/Joint Powers Insurance Authority effective July 1, 2018; and, 2) approve Resolution No. 3080-18 consenting to enter the Joint Protection Programs of the Association of California Water Agencies/Joint Powers Insurance Authority. DISCUSSION: The District has obtained its Workers’ Compensation Program coverage through California Sanitation Risk Management Authority (CSRMA) since 1992. Previous reviews of this program have resulted in the decision to stay with CSRMA; however, this year upon application to Association of California Water Agencies/Joint Powers Insurance (ACWA-JPIA), the quote received, in addition to ancillary loss control services makes the ACWA-JPIA Workers’ Compensation Program more desirable. The first major difference is in the premium quoted. The program year is July 1, 2016, to July 1, 2017, for the Workers’ Compensation Program, so 2016/17 figures are being utilized for purposes of comparison. The District’s 2016/17 audited payroll premium reconciliation with CSRMA came in at an actual premium of $248,036, based on an ex-modification factor of 1.08. An ex-modification factor of 1.08 means that the District is paying 8% more than the base premium due to the loss history in the prior three years. ACWA-JPI A quoted a premium of $197,078 for the fiscal year 2017/18, based on an ex-modification factor of 1.00. They realized that we had minimal claims and experienced only one or two serious claims in the prior three-year period. This deposit premium quote included a 12% economy of size discount (which would continue to apply in all future years.) This results in a savings of $50,958. The ACWA-JPIA Workers’ Compensation Program also offers a Retrospective Allocation Point (RAP) system whereby after four years, an audit is performed and various adjustment elements are factored in and compared to the deposit premium for that program year. Then, a debit or credit is made to the member’s stabilization fund. In the interim of those first four years, the District will continue to have its prior claims history audited by CSRMA and receive the retrospective adjustment refunds (or charges), depending on the actual claims costs. These continue annually with CSRMA until the claims are closed. General Manager Richard H. Solbrig Directors Chris Cefalu James R. Jones Randy Vogelgesang Kelly Sheehan Duane Wallace 40 Nancy Hussmann February 15, 2017 Page 2 The loss control services provided by the ACWA-JPIA are far superior to CSRMA. They assign a dedicated loss control person to the District who conducts an annual physical inspection of District facilities, in addition to a best practices survey to reduce losses. CSRMA provides a best practices written survey only every three years, and does not provide a physical inspection of District facilities. Another benefit to the ACWA-JPIA Workers’ Compensation Program is that ACWA-JPIA employs in-house claims adjusters to administer the claims. CSRMA contracts this service out to a third party administrator, and experience with them indicates that the claims adjusters tend to have shorter tenures than the 15 years’ average tenure of the ACWA-JPIA employees. This provides continuity in claims adjuster contact, especially with claims that have a long life. This creates a lower case load per adjuster and as a result, the ACWA-JPIA claims adjusters have a ten year-plus history of Department of Workers’ Compensation Audit Unity rating the program No.1 with no errors found. In addition, another component of the ACWA-JPIA Compensation Program is that it qualifies the District with 600+ topics or safety trainings free of charge (or low cost) on the wide variety of classes required by Cal-OSHA. Through CSRMA, any requested safety training is contracted out to a consultant, who charges for this training. As such, the District has been forced to seek other trainers, with training costs ranging from $2,000 to $6,000 per ½ to 2-day classes required by Cal-OSHA. Finally, there are other program benefits through ACWA-JPIA that the District could explore once a member of their Workers’ Compensation Program – such as a Department of Transportation (DOT) Drug and Alcohol sponsored consortium. This is a program required by the DOT for commercial drivers and is currently administered through a program with CSRMA. The ACWA-JPIA has been in existence since 1979, which provides risk-sharing pool with over 360 members. CSRMA indicates that the District cannot leave their Workers’ Compensation Program until the end of the program year on June 30, 2018. ACWA- JPIA is currently strategizing about their rate structure for the July 1, 2018, program year, and is considering reducing rates in their Workers’ Compensation Program, while CSRMA is anticipating a 5-10% increase in rates. By moving to the ACWA-JPIA Workers’ Compensation Program, this would create even more savings than stated above.

DISCUSSION: The District currently has approximately 3,700 remaining water meter installations to complete; this purchase will provide the Sensus meters and Sensus radio- read units for the 2018 Water Meter Installation Project and the meter installations associated with the Marlette Waterline Replacement Project. These materials will be provided to the contractor for installation. On May 21, 2009, the Board reaffirmed Sensus meters and Sensus radio-read units as sole-brand items to ensure that all parts will perform with the District’s electronic meter reading system, and to facilitate the ongoing, cost-effective operation and maintenance of the metering system. As authorized, the District only purchases meters and radio-read units manufactured by Sensus. As Western Nevada Supply is the sole source supplier for Sensus in this area, staff has negotiated preferential pricing based on past purchases, expected future purchases and potential additions to the metering system such as a radio frequency based communications network. Funding for the purchase is provided by a low-interest loan through the State Water Resources Control Board’s (SWRCB) Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF). Staff recommends that the Board authorize exception to bidding procedures as outlined in the Purchasing Policy for a sole source purchase of standardized supplies and authorize purchase of Sensus Meters and Radio-Read Units from Western Nevada Supply in the estimated amount of $429,631.58.
