Engineering Services for Carlton Water Treatment Plant Backup Power Improvements

1. Project Overview- This Request for Professional Services (RPS) is to solicit qualified professional engineering services for design, permitting, bid phase services and services during construction for the Carlton Water Treatment Plant Backup Power Improvements Project (the Project). The Project will allow the County to comply with regulatory requirements that require the plant to have backup generators to keep the plant operational in case of power failure(s). Project includes the replacement of two (2) existing 2000 kW permanent generators with an adequate number and size of generators that will meet the power needs of the water treatment plant. The size and integration of the generators will need to be evaluated to ensure full integration with County SCADA and any other necessary equipment. The existing site constraints include plant operations that are 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and a backup power system will need to be available at all times. Services will need to be coordinated with staff at the water treatment plant site.

2. Description of Work- The improvements are anticipated to include: A. Design of permanent emergency generators, power, fuel, and backup systems to increase reliability and redundancy. Final number to be determined after analysis. B. Removal of the existing generators and associated equipment C. Installation of new generators, applicable switchgears, automatic transfer switches (ATCs), fuel tanks, utility switchboard, and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) D. Integration with the Countys SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) platform E. Upgrades to piping configurations F. Coordination with FPL

3. Professional Services- The anticipated services for the Project to be provided by the Consultant may include but are not limited to the following: A. Design services including, but not limited to, design technical specifications, engineering calculations, models and studies, preliminary and final plan designs for construction, cost estimates, and a detailed project management plan. B. Necessary supporting components based on the final design accepted by the County. C. Regulatory coordination and permitting services (local, state, and federal) PART II SCOPE OF SERVICES Prepared by Capital Projects Department Part II - Page 2 of 2 D.
