Curry Utilities Supervisor City of Newport Beach 3300 Newport Blvd. Newport Beach, CA 92663 Email: MCurryodnewportbeachca.gov Subject: Proposal for Additional Services; Request for Proposal No. 13-42; Cathodic Protection Station Repair and Replacement. Dear Mr. Curry, In accordance with our recent and meetings and conversations, American Constntetion and Supply (ACS) is pleased to submit this proposal for additional services on the subject project. As discussed, we have now installed and tested the thirty -seven (37) replacement magnesium anode beds that were required by the original contract documents. Unfortunately, the high current outputs from over half of these anode beds appears to indicate that their theoretical design life will be less than ten years. We have also determined that according to the as- bunts, there are missing anode test stations at both ends of Reach 2, plus one missing test station near the comer of Bushard St and Banning Ave. In order to better balance the CP current throughout Reach 2, and reduce the current load on neighboring test stations, we propose the installation of three replacement anode test stations at the following locations (see attached drawings for additional information): 1. Pipeline Station 219 +65: a. E /S /O Talbert Channel, approximately 100' NIO Hamilton Ave. b. Pipe is buried under the paved entrance to Talbert Channel. c. Pipe is approximately 4' deep. d. We will install the CP test station directly above the existing pipeline. e. We will install a new two-anode bed adjacent to the pipeline per the original project scope. 2. Pipeline Station 259 +00: a. Left turn lane of S/B Bushard St, approximately 60' N/O Banning Ave. b. Pipe is buried under the paved roadway. c. Pipe is approximately 4.75' deep. d. We will install the CP test station directly above the existing pipeline. e. We will install a new two -anode bed adjacent to the pipeline per the original project scope. 3. Pipeline Station 280 +80: a. Approximately 450' E/O Intersection of Brookhurst St and Banning Ave, inside OCSD Treatment Plant #2. b. Pipe is covered with dirt. c, Pipe is approximately 4.8' deep. d. We will install the CP test station directly above the existing pipeline. e. We will install a new two-anode bed adjacent to the pipeline pet the original project scope. Proposal for Additional Services; RFP No. 13 -42 Cathodic Protection Station Repair and Replacement February 18, 2014 As compensation for these magnesium anode test station installations, we propose a lump sum fee of $20,000.00, This fee will be firm for 120 -days if accepted within the next 30 days, and based on the following terms and conditions: 1. Pipe depths to be less than 5' per attached record drawings. 1 Note that the test station on Bushard Street will be installed in the street directly above the pipeline, not routed to the sidewalk like the other locations. 1 Includes slurry backfill of pipe excavations at both paved locations. 4. Includes backfill with native soil at location inside the OCSD Treatment Plant #2. 5. Patch paving to be provided by City of Newport Beach. 6. Traffic control to be provided by City of Newport Beach. a. ACS to provide 8-1/2" x 11" traffic control plan. Engineered plans are by others. 7. Steel plating to be provided by City of Newport Beach. a. ACS to set and secure steel plates over excavations. b. Fee does not include asphalt grinding to set steel plates flush to existing asphalt. As we have discussed on several occasions, we should be able to reduce the current output at the 19 anode test stations with theoretical design lives below 10 years by installing resistors in the test stations. However, since the pipe - to- soil (P /S) potentials will be reduced once the current outputs have been reduced, we propose the use of an alternate NACE criteria. This alternate criteria is discussed in Paragraph 6.2.1.2 in the latest version of NACE Standard Practice SP0169, and states that a minimum of 100 mV of cathodic polarization is enough to establish that active corrosion at the test site has been reduced by an order of magnitude, and with this ten -fold reduction in corrosion, the test point is considered to be "cathodically protected ". In order to achieve this result, we feel the most prudent strategy is as follows: 9. Disconnect the anodes at all test stations. 2, Allow the pipeline to depolarize for approximately two approximately weeks. 3. Measure and record static pipe -to -soil potentials at all test stations in order to establish baseline potentials. 4. Reconnect the anodes and install resistors as required to reduce the anode current outputs and maintain a theoretical 10 -year anode life. 5. Allow the system to repolarize for approximately two weeks. 6. Complete a final system survey to determine the level of cathodic protection. 7. Utilize NACE criteria in Paragraph 6.2.1.2 where available to ensure the system is providing adequate levels of cathodic protection. As compensation for these additional testing services, we proposed a lump sum fee of $6,300. This fee will be firm for 120 -days if accepted within the next 30 days, and includes all resistors and test station hardware required for the modifications. We sincerely appreciate the opportunity to submit this information, and trust you'll find it satisfactory. Should questions arise, or further information be required, please feel free to contact our office. Very Truly Yours, American Construction and Supply, Inc.
