DRINKING WATER QUALITY REPORT 2014

TOTAL TRIHALOMETHANES

The regulatory Disinfectant By-Product (DBP) Rule for Stage II sampling for Total Trihalomethanes (TTHMs) requires a running average based on each sample location. In 2014, our highest TTHM locational average was 74 ppb, which is below the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 80 ppb. TTHMs are a widely occurring class of DBP that form during water treatment disinfection when chlorine reacts with organic material (also known as “precursors”). Factors that influence the formation of DBPs include water temperature, pH, chlorine concentration, precursor concentration, and chlorine contact time. Some individuals who drink water containing TTHMs in excess of the state MCL over many years may experience complications with their liver, kidneys, or central nervous system, and may have an increased risk of getting cancer. For more information, visit the EPA website at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/disinfection/.

IRON, MANGANESE & TURBIDITY

Because our iron, manganese and turbidity levels at some of our wells continue to exceed secondary MCLs, we will maintain our increased monitoring of our groundwater wells. These higher levels do not directly pose a health risk, but can impact the aesthetics of your water. In addition, high levels of turbidity can interfere with disinfection and provide a medium for microbial growth. At certain concentrations, iron and manganese can precipitate out and leave stains on plumbing fixtures, dishes, and on laundered clothes. We will continue monitoring our wells and will adjust operations as necessary to ensure these levels are maintained at manageable levels.

TOTAL COLIFORM BACTERIA

Coliform is a bacteria naturally present in the environment and is used as an indicator that other potentially harmful bacteria may exist. VAFB collects between 12 to 15 coliform samples each month at selected sites, to include the childcare facilities. All routine compliance samples collected and analyzed were all absent for coliform and met state requirements.

IMPORTANT HEALTH INFORMATION

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. US EPA/Centers for

Disease Control (CDC) guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791).

WATER SYSTEMS IMPROVEMENTS

The drinking water system on VAFB was upgraded as required to deliver high quality drinking water. Ongoing projects include corrosion prevention and water line/pump station replacement.

CONTAMINANTS IN THE DRINKING WATER

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.

Contaminants that may be present in source water include:

• Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria that may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.

• Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, that can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.

• Pesticides and herbicides, that may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses.

• Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals that are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban storm water runoff, agricultural application, and septic systems.

• Radioactive contaminants that can occur naturally or be the result from oil and gas production and mining activities.

To ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the California Department of Public Health prescribe regulations that limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Department regulations also establish limits for contaminants in bottled water that provide the same protection for public health.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the USEPA’s

Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791) or http://water.epa.gov/infrastructure/drinkingwater/pws/index.cfm.

GENERAL INFORMATION

We are pleased to present our 2014 water quality report. This report is designed to inform you about the quality of drinking water we deliver to you daily.

Our constant goal is to provide you with a dependable supply of drinking water. The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. This requires disinfection for all water sources. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and the California Department of Public Health prescribe regulations that limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Disinfectant treatment ensures your water meets public health requirements and eliminates microbial contamination.

SOURCES OF WATER

In 2014 VAFB utilized water from the groundwater wells located on VAFB property in the San Antonio (SA) Groundwater Basin. VAFB can also purchase water from the California State Water Project (SWP). Water from the SWP originates from the upper Feather River in northern California and is stored in Lake

Oroville and the San Luis Reservoir. The Central Branch of the Central Coast Water Authority (CCWA) delivers SWP water via pipelines to VAFB from the

Polonio Pass Water Treatment Plant which is approximately 125 miles northeast of VAFB. SA well water was supplemented with SWP water for only a few hours in 2014. If you would like information on their water results please contact BE at 606-7811. Water from both sources is disinfected and fluoridated.

WATER SOURCE ASSESSMENT

In July 2012 the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) updated VAFB’s Source Water Assessment for the base groundwater wells. As there have been no contaminants detected in the water supply, there are no possible contaminating activities that have had a direct impact on the source. However, the source is considered to be the most vulnerable to the following activities: military installation, wells-water supply, roads/streets, surface water, and freeways/state highways. The assessment determined there are no activities that pose a direct threat to VAFB’s groundwater source. For a more detailed summary of the assessment, contact Laura Miz, 30 CES/CEO, at 805-606-4749. A copy of the complete assessment may be viewed at Division of Drinking Water, Drinking

Water Field Operations Branch, 1180 Eugenia Place, Suite 200, Carpenteria, CA 93013, or you may request a summary of the assessment be sent to you by contacting Jeff Densmore, District Engineer, at 805-566-1326.

WATER CONSERVATION

DROUGHT INFORMATION

Due to the continuing severe drought in California, surface water sources are not as abundant as they typically are. As a result, Vandenberg is using its ground water wells as the primary water source since late 2013. Since there are distinct aesthetic differences between VAFB well water and State Water, you may notice changes in the physical characteristics of the water, such as appearance, taste, and odor. Both water sources are safe to drink.

PROTECT OUR RESOURCE

We must all take steps to ensure we have an adequate supply of drinking water in the future. The best way to achieve this goal is by using water sparingly in our daily lives. VAFB is also required to prevent storm water pollution. Here are some tips on how to conserve water and also prevent storm water pollution:

• Water your lawn only when necessary, and never on consecutive days. This could save 750-1,500 gallons per month.

• Look for leaky faucets and plumbing joints. This saves 600 gallons per month for each leak fixed.

• Run only full loads in washing machines and dishwashers. This saves 300-800 gallons per month.

• Shorten your showers. This saves up to 700 gallons per month.

• Turn off the water while brushing your teeth and/or shaving. This saves 10 gallons per day.

• Visit www.epa.gov/watersense for more information.

PREVENT WATER POLLUTION

During storm events runoff mobilizes contaminants such as oil and gasoline from parking lots, sediment and fertilizers from landscaping, and pet waste from parks. Storm water runoff eventually makes its way into groundwater or receiving water bodies such as rivers and lakes and has the potential to contaminate water supplies. Keep storm water leaving your home or workplace clean. Prevent contamination of drinking water by following these simple guidelines:

• Use a commercial car wash facility.

• Keep vehicles maintained to prevent leaks.

• Don’t litter

• Use pesticides and fertilizers sparingly and never before anticipated rain.

• If you see polluted storm water runoff or materials such as motor oil discharging or being dumped into storm drains, call the Storm Water Hotline at

606-7541.

Recycle waste oil and used antifreeze can be taken to the Consolidated Collection Accumulation Facility, Building 3300 on New Mexico Avenue.

Used kitchen grease is the only item Balfour Beatty Communities Self Help Center can accept. They are located at 603 Juniper Street.

4.2.6. Drawing Indices. Where BIM authoring platform supports it, drawing indexes should be derived from a model-https://cadbim.usace.army.mil/ https://cadbim.usace.army.mil/ driven schedule.

5.0 Section 5 - Ownership and Rights in Data

5.1. Ownership. At the date of Closeout Submittal, the Government has ownership of and rights to all CAD files, BIM Models, and Facility/Site Data developed for the Project in accordance with FAR Part 27, clauses incorporated in Section 00 72 00, Contract Clauses and Special Contract Requirement 1.14 GOVERNMENT RE-USE OF DESIGN (Section 00 73 00). The Government may make use of this data following any deliverable.

6.0 Section 6 – Contractor Electives

6.1. Applicable Criteria. If the Contractor elected to include one or more of the following features as an elective in its accepted contract proposal for additional credit, as described in the proposal submission requirements and evaluation criteria, the requirements of paragraphs 6.2 through 6.5 are as applicable for those elective feature(s) that will be included in the project.

6.2. COBIE Compliance. The Model and Facility/Site Data for the Project shall fulfill Construction Operations

Building Information Exchange (COBIE) requirements on the Whole Building Design Guide website (www.wbdg.org) , including all requirements for the indexing and submission of Portable Document Format (PDF) and other appropriate records that would otherwise be printed and submitted in compliance with Project operations and maintenance handover requirements.

6.3. Project Scheduling using the Model. In the PxP and during the Initial Design Conference Submittal

Demonstration, provide an overview of the use of BIM in the development and support of the Project construction schedule.

6.3.1. Submittal Requirements. During the Stages identified in Paragraphs 3.3 through 3.4, the

Contractor shall deliver the construction schedule linked to the Model.

6.3.1.1. Construction Submittals – Over-The-Shoulder Progress Reviews. Periodic quality control meetings or construction progress review meetings shall include quality control reviews on the implementation and use of the Model for Project scheduling.

6.4. Cost Estimating. In the PxP and during the Initial Design Conference Submittal Demonstration, provide an overview of the use of BIM in the development and support of cost estimating, or other costing applications such as comparative cost analysis for proposed changes and estimate validation.

6.4.1. Submittal Requirements. During the Stages identified in Paragraphs 3.3 through 3.5, the

Contractor shall deliver cost estimating information derived from the Model.

6.4.2. Project Completion. At Project completion, the Contractor shall provide an Micro Computer Aided Cost Estimating System Generation II (“MII”) Cost Estimate that follows the USACE Cost Engineering Military Work Breakdown System (“WBS”), a modified Uniformat, to at least the sub- systems level and uses quantity information supplied directly from Model output to the maximum extent possible, though other "gap" quantity information will be included by the contractor as necessary for a complete and accurate Cost Estimate. (See Paragraph 6.4.2.2).

6.4.2.1. Sub system level extracted quantities from the Model for use within the Estimate shall be provided according to how detailed line items or tasks should be installed/built so that accurate costs can be developed and/or reflected. When developing a Model, the contractor shall be cognizant of construction sequencing at the beginning stages of Model development, such as recognizing tasks performed on the first floor versus the same task on higher floors that will be more labor intensive and, therefore, need to have a separate quantity and be priced differently. Tasks and their extracted quantities from the Model shall be broken down by their location (proximity in the structure) as well as the complexity of installation.

6.4.2.2. At all design Stages it shall be acknowledged that BIM output will not generate all quantities that are necessary in order to develop a complete and accurate cost estimate of the Project based on the design alone. (An example of this would be plumbing that is less than 1.5" diameter and, therefore, not expected to be modeled due to permitted level of design granularity; this information is commonly referred to as “The Gap”. Quantities addressing “The Gap” and their associated costs shall be included in the final Project actual Cost Estimates as well even though not derived directly from the Model data).

6.5. Other Analyses and Reports. Structural, energy and efficiency, EPACT 2005 & EISA 2007, lighting design, http://www.wbdg.org/ daylighting, electrical power, psychrometric processing, shading, programming, LEED, fire protection, code compliance, Life Cycle Cost, acoustic, plumbing and other analyses that may be generated from the Model or reports summarizing the data compiled from these analyses shall be submitted in the form established by contractor in its accepted PxP.

7.0 Definitions

7.1. The following definitions apply specifically to the USACE BIM Requirements.

7.2. “Model”: A digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility or a part thereof, comprised of “Model Elements” with “Facility/Site Data”.

7.3. “Model Element”: A self-contained element with a unique identification, whose behavior and properties are defined by Facility/Site Data and software processes. Model Elements can represent a physical entity, such as a pump or a concrete wall, and range from the simple to the complex.

7.4. “Facility/Site Data”: The non-graphical information attached to objects in the Model that defines various characteristics of the object. Facility/Site Data can include properties such as parametric values that drive physical sizes, material definitions and characteristics (e.g. wood, metal), manufacturer data, industry standards (e.g. AISC steel properties), and project identification numbers. Facility/Site Data can also define supplementary physical entities that are not shown graphically in the Model, such as insulation around a duct, hardware on a door, content of conduit, or transformer properties.

7.5. “Workspace”: A collection of content libraries and supporting files that define and embody a BIM standard. A workspace includes BIM libraries such as wall types, standard steel shapes, furniture, HVAC fittings, and sprinkler heads. It also contains sheet libraries such as print/plot configurations, font and text style libraries, and sheet borders and title blocks. The USACE has developed Workspaces specific to USACE BIM standards;

these workspaces are dependent on specific versions of the BIM applications they serve. All USACE BIM Workspaces can be downloaded from the CAD/BIM Technology Center (https://cadbim.usace.army.mil). In some cases, there is a specific Workspace for a given CoS Facility Standard Design.

7.6. “IFC”: Industry Foundation Class, a standard and file format used for the exchange of BIM data; see www.iai-tech.org. Note: In the context of this attachment, IFC does not mean “Issued For Construction.”
