BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At various times during discussions on the PCEITCE groundwater contamination cleanup, City staff has indicated that we will seek grant funds to assist in the clean up. At this time, staff is seeking formal authorization for the City Manager to submit applications without individual Council action. Acceptance or execution of grant contracts/agreements would be brought back for Council approval. The ability to submit applications without additional Council action provides more flexibility in meeting specific program deadlines or other criteria. This request is prompted by an offer from a specific firm —Applied Process Technology—who is seeking a public agency partner in submitting an application to the State of California for a full-scale pilot project. The deadline for this particular application is at the end of January. The application is not yet completed. Their technology uses a combination of ozone and hydrogen peroxide to destroy PCETTCE, rather than the typical use of granular activated carbon (GAC)which only captures the contaminants. Ina carbon system, the contaminants are then removed/destroyed in a separate process. The company would gain from the pilot project in that they are seeking State Departmentof Health Services certification of their product for this application. The City would gain by accomplishing a portion of the clean up at a lower cost. Technical background material on this technology is attached. FISCAL IMPACT: There is minimal cost to the City to assist in submitting the application, mainly staff time and a few hours of assistance from our technical consultants, Treadwell & Rollo. If successful, cost savings could be on the order of hundreds of thousands of dollars. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable. r Richard C.

Clean Water. No Waste. The HiPOx SRS is an advanced oxidation system that combines ozone and hydrogen peroxide to destroy groundwater contaminants in a continuous flow reactor. The system utilizes multiple reagent injection points and mixers to maximize contaminant destruction in a waste -free process. The SRS is a portable containerized unit equipped with medium -to -high ozone capacities. The SRS is suitable for high- flow sites with low contaminant concentrations or low -to -moderate flow sites with high contaminant concentrations. ✓ PLC control system provides for unattended and automated operation ✓ Fail-safe operation ✓ Automatic paging in event of shutdown ✓ Operating set points adjusted via local Operator Interface Terminal (OIT) or remotely via modem with optional SCADA package STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS Flow Rate 3 — 250 GPM Ozone Capacity 20 — 100 lbs/day onboard* Up to 500 lbs/day offboard* Dimensions 8'W x 24'L x 8'6"H Weight Approx. 15,000 — 20,000 lbs Electrical Requirements 208VAC, 30, 60 Hz, 120A maximum Power Consumption 22 - 44 kW *SRS systems utilize onboard generator racks and/or offboard generators skids (approx. 8'W x 24 Z) SYSTEM CONFIGURATION AND FEATURES Enclosure Insulated & climate -controlled, weather -resistant enclosure(s); stainless-steel reactor & mixers; convenient power and process connections Safety Shop tested (to extent possible); ozone destruct unit and multiple detectors; fail-safe shutdown features; all ozone -containing piping is joint -free or (double -)contained within monitored enclosures OZONE GENERATION / DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM* Generator Capacity 20 — 100 lbs/da ** Concentration 8% — 10% by weight Injection Capacity 5 — 150 m /L ozone dose Injection Piping PFA Teflon r" *includes rack -mounted, solid-state ozone generator(s), ozone manifold with metering and check valves, automatic pressure control and shutoff valve **uses bulk liquid oxygen or oxygen produced by generation system HYDROGEN PEROXIDE SYSTEM* REACTOR SYSTEM* Flow Rate 3 — 250 GPM Reactor Single- or dual reactor(s) with PVC or Construction stainless steel piping, multiple injection points with internal static mixers Reagent Control Reagent addition precisely controlled and adjusted as needed at each injector *includes gas/liquid separator and inlet flow meter; optional feed tank, pump and recycle valve also available COOLING SYSTEM Storage Typ. 150 -gallon, double- Method Refrigerated package chiller with contained, non-metallic tank outdoor condenser Concentration Typ. 35% technical grade Injection Piping Polyethylene/316 stainless steel *injection system included OXYGEN SYSTEM* Standard Supply Liquid oxygen Dewar cylinders Size 160-265 Liters Concentration 99.9+%vol (Grade 6) Optional Supply PSA** -enriched gas Concentration 90+%vol (-70°F dewpoint) *oxygen flow controller included; optional gas manifold available "Pressure -Swing Adsorption ✓ Multiple ozone injection points maximize process efficiency and contaminant destruction ✓ Precision instrumentation for accurate reagent control ✓ One -button startup and shutdown; touchscreen control display for ease of operation TM Teflon is a registered trademark of the DuPont Co.
