AGENDA ITEM c.4
AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for City of
Lodi White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility Storage Expansion and
Surface, Agricultural, and Groundwater Supply Improvement Project
MEETING DATE: January 17, 2018
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION•
Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertisement for
bids for City of Lodi White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility
Storage Expansion and Surface, Agricultural, and Groundwater
Supply Improvement Project.
BACKGRUND INFORMATION: In June 2016, the City was awarded a Proposition 84, Delta, San
Joaquin River, and Sacramento River Water Quality Program Grant
by the California Department of Water Resources, to receive
$4,600,000. The grant is only offered to agencies located within the Sacramento San Joaquin Delta
Area.
The grant funds up to 75 percent of the total proposed costs (environmental, design, and construction) of
onsite recycled water storage facilities, intended to improve groundwater quality in the region. The 300
acre-foot capacity storage pond system will be used to store disinfected tertiary treated effluent to be
used for irrigating the City's 890 acres of agricultural land surrounding White Slough Water Pollution
Control Facility (WSWPCF), and to reduce the volume of effluent being discharged to the Delta. For
these reasons it is also expected the project will further enhance the City's position in complying with the
State's Sustainable Groundwater Management Act. The City is responsible for the remaining 25 percent
in matching funds.
On January 20, 2016, Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Petrologix Engineering
for the environmental, geological, geotechnical, and- preliminary and final design work needed to initiate
the construction phase of this substantial project.
As mandated by state law, City staff prepared an Initial Study/ Mitigated Negative Declaration (File No.
2017-02 ND) in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, and on March 15,
2017, Council adopted a resolution certifying the document.
The project includes a new 300 acre-foot capacity storage pond that will store tertiary -treated
wastewater, approximately 3,400 feet of 18 -inch diameter pipe that will convey water to and from the new
pond, a new pump station to both fill and drain the pond, a new structure that will monitor and control the
flow to the pond, piping connections at two existing structures, associated electrical/instrumentation
improvements, and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and specifications for the
project.
