DATE: 10/15/24 M&C FILE NUMBER: M&C 24-0864
LOG NAME: 60EMWTP ONCOR SERVICE AGREEMENT
SUBJECT
(CD 7) Authorize Execution of a Discretionary Services Agreement with Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC in the Amount of $1,261,986.37 for
the Installation of Electrical Infrastructure and Equipment for the Eagle Mountain Water Treatment Plant Generators and Emergency Preparation
Plan Project and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance to Effect a Portion of the Water Department's Contribution to the Fiscal Years 2025-2029 Capital
Improvement Program
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize execution of a Discretionary Service Agreement with Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC in the amount of $1,261,986.37 for the
installation of electrical infrastructure and equipment at the Eagle Mountain Water Treatment Plant within the Water Treatment Plant
Generators and Emergency Preparation Plan Project; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance adjusting estimated receipts and appropriations in the Water & Sewer Revenue Bond Series
2024 Fund by increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Westside Water Treatment Plant Generators and Emergency
Preparation Plan Project (City Project No. 103410) in the amount of $1,261,987.00 and decreasing estimated receipts and appropriations
in the Commercial Paper Project (City Project No. UCMLPR) effecting a portion of the Water Department's contribution to the Fiscal Years
2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program.
DISCUSSION:
During the winter storm of February 2021, power outages affecting the distribution power feeds to the Eagle Mountain Water Treatment
Plant (EMWTP) resulted in shut downs at the plant and issuance of a boil water notice for residents in north Fort Worth as well as some.wholesale
customers.
Following this event, numerous meetings held between Fort Worth Water Utility and Oncor staff determined the most effective manner to improve
electrical reliability to the EMWTP was to install a new electrical substation supplied from the high voltage transmission lines located on the west
perimeter of the EMWTP property. New electrical distribution lines located on plant property would then be installed connecting plant electrical
metering to the new substation.
This Discretionary Services Agreement includes the infrastructure costs to install electrical conduit, conductors, duct banks, and switchgears
necessary to feed the existing plant facilities from the new substation.
Installation of the substation and electrical infrastructure will increase the reliability of the watertreatment facility in the event of inclement weather or
power curtailments.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its CIP plan throughout the Fiscal Year (FY) instead of within the annual budget ordinance,
as projects commence, additional funding needs are identified, and to comply with bond covenants. The actions in the Mayor & Council
Communication will appropriate funds in support of the Water Department's portion of the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Year 2025-2029 Capital
Improvement Program.
