Indiana Finance Authority / Indianapolis, IN Jim McGoff 2017 2019 Phone number Email address

(317) 233-4337 JMcGoff@indiana.in.gov Summarize the scope and deliverables provided, including timeline and outcome. Include similar services performed s those required by this solicitation.

State the name(s) of any of Offeror’s key personnel proposed in Attachment 6, who worked on this project:

The Indiana Finance Authority (IFA) was directed by the 2017 Indiana General Assembly to study the ability of utilities to provide clean and safe drinking water in Indiana for the foreseeable future. Previous studies conducted by IFA have identified water supply challenges in the southeastern portion of the state. Available sources of groundwater and surface water in southeast Indiana are unevenly distributed, requiring more infrastructure and higher costs to develop new sources. Considering this, and because projected population growth and accessible transportation routes favor economic development in this part of the state, IFA contracted INTERA to study the feasibility of developing a regional water supply to serve the region. Dan Haddock served as the Project Manager during this project.

List key Materials or Services provided.

Developed conceptual designs and cost estimates to determine the likely construction and operating costs of regional system alternatives. Documented the results of the study in a report and presented it to the Indiana state legislature.

City of Decatur / Decatur, IL Robert C. Weil, P.E., MSCE, MEd 2018 2020 Phone number Email address

(217) 424-2863 rweil@decaturil.gov Summarize the scope and deliverables provided, including timeline and outcome. Include similar services performed s those required by this solicitation. State the name(s) of any of Offeror’s key personnel proposed in Attachment 6, who worked on this project:

INTERA was hired to determine the quantity of additional water that Decatur needs to withstand a 10-month drought and identify the location of potential additional water sources and the necessary infrastructure to deliver the water. INTERA completed the following tasks: 1) designed a severe drought 2) forecast demand 3) determined how much more water the city needs 3) identified and evaluated alternatives able to fulfill the supply gap 4) and identified the optimal drought-resilient additional supply. The current and future projected water demand was combined with hydrologic conditions representing the design drought to evaluate the water-supply needs for the City of Decatur. Dan Haddock served as the Project Engineer.

List key Materials or Services provided.

A systems model was developed using GoldSim. INTERA provided engineering analysis, conceptual design, and cost estimating for over 10 alternative water-supply options. INTERA evaluated the infrastructure alternatives based on economic, environmental, and social criteria, including operational costs and benefits, potential impacts, opportunities for cost sharing, and the resiliency of each. INTERA established triple bottom line (TBL) criteria for evaluation of alternatives and provided

State the name(s) of any of Offeror’s key personnel proposed in Attachment 6, who worked on this project:

Worked with a team of consultants on the Water Supply Master Plan Update for the City of Steamboat Springs and Mount Werner Water and Sanitation District in Colorado. Courtney Black served as the Senior Engineer on the project. She led the evaluation of historical water demand trends to identify how historical demands have been influenced by population growth, climate factors, drought restrictions, water rates, advances in new water saving technologies, and water conservation activities.

Evaluated performance of reaching established water conservation targets.

List key Materials or Services provided.

A Water Supply Master Plan Update was developed and provided to the City of Steamboat Springs and Mount Werner Water and Sanitation District.
