(REI) to include Turbine Rebuild in the Long- Term Solids Dewatering, Processing and Disposal at the Vil€age Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant (VCWWTP) thereby increasing the contract by$955,000.00. DISCUSSION: On April 19, 1994, (M&C C-142558) the City Council authorized the execution of a contract with REi for Long-Term Solids Dewatering, Processing-� and Disposal at the VCVAX P. on June 29, 2004, (M&C C- 20131) the City Council authorized the contract's second five-year renewal and Amendment No. 3 to include the operation and maintenance of the VCWWTP 5.2 MW gas turbine generators. The turbine powered generators provide approximately one-half of the plant's electricity and have been in service since 2001. Saler Turbines, the original equipment manufacturer, recommends an engine overhaul every 30,000 operating hours. The Water Department FY2007-08 operating budget includes funds for one engine overhaul. Additional funds will be budgeted for the second turbine overhaul in a subsequent year. It is recommended that the original turbine manufacturer perform this highly sophisticated major overhaul as a subcontractor to RE]. Amendment.No. 3 included routine maintenance of the Solar Turbines engines, the Kato generators and the waste heat recovery system up to $50,000 per year. The engine rebuild is beyond the scope of Amendment No. 3 in that it includes the complete disassembly, inspection, rework, reassembly and test to original thermodynamic and mechanical performance. It is recommended that the overhaul be performed by Solar Turbines because the VCWWTP turbines were designed and constructed to specifically operate with the low Btu methane fuel generated by the on-site anaerobic digesters and nearby landfill. Additionally, Soler Turbines has an engine exchange program that will allow the current turbine to be removed and a rebuilt replacement unit installed. The replacement unit will become permanent until another overhaul is needed. REI has an established relationship with Solar Turbines. RE] will facilitate and assist with the removal, rebuild and reinstallation of the turbine unit consistent with the division's needs. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 5. M/WBE - M/WBE Waiver was approved, based on the information provided to the MIWBE Office by the managing department requesting the waiver. http://www.cfNnet.org/council_packet/Reports/mc_print.asp 12/13/2007 Page 2 of 2 FISCAL IN RMATIONICERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget of the Water and Sever Fund.
