    BUSINESS SERVICE AGREEMENTS
  2. Montgomery Watson Harza (MWH) - Trailbridge Spillway Expansion - Electric Engineering - Electric Division. Staff recommend executing a contract with Montgomery Watson Harza Engineering for performance of Final Engineering Plans and Specifications, Permitting Assistance and Bidding Assistance for the Trailbridge Dam Emergency Spillway Expansion Project. The spillway expansion is required by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Part 12, Subsection D dam safety regulations, in order to safely pass Probably Maximum flood waters through the dam. MWH, has performed the last two Part 12 inspections, developed design alternatives and facilitated approvals by the FERC. In addition, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and other Federal Agencies accepted MWH's innovative and cost effective proposal after years of negotiation. Because of MWH's preliminary design work, geotechnical investigations, intimate project knowledge and long-term relationship with the Agencies, final engineering design will be most cost effectively provided by them. Their performance thus far has been excellent and their knowledge of the project requirements makes them uniquely qualified to continue with this next phase. The cost of this work is not to exceed $98,000 and is included in the 2002 and proposed 2003 budget. Contact person is Dean Ahlsten, 484-2411, ext. 3216.
  3. City of Springfield - Right-0f-Way Easement & Improvement Agreement with the City of Springfield - Hayden Bridge Reservoir - Pumping Station & Electric Upgrade - Water Division.
