Water System Asset Inventory and Assessment On behalf of TRC thank you for the opportunity to present out proposal to the Town of Princeton (Town) for Professional Engineering services for the Water System Asset Inventory and Assessment (AIA) BACKGROUND The Town of Princeton operates a water distribution system that consists of approximately 27 miles of distribution lines. The Town has multiple interconnections with Johnston County, from which the town regularly purchases water. The distribution lines are understood to be mostly PVC and ductile iron pipes, but approximately 4% is reported as galvanized iron. The Town has requested services to conduct an AIA study to address the lack of accurate mapping and database of assets and potential operational challenges in the water system that include dead-end lines, undersized lines, buried blow-off valves, and inconsistent pressure ini the distribution system. This will help to prioritize capital investments on the most critically impacted areas of the system. II. SCOPE OF WORK Services to be provided by TRC under this task order will include the following: Task A. Analysis of Distribution System Records Review existing water system mapping and permitting. Review inter-connection agreements with Johnston County. Assemble an updated base map as basis for GPS location of system assets. Find and set GPS location for each water valve, meter, and fire hydrant within the Note existing system components and visible condition as applicable. Task B. GPS Locate and Map Valves, Meters, and Hydrants system. Provide relevant photos. Task C. Hydraulic Water Model Generate a water model using WaterCAD based on existing data and further evaluations Utilize data from the Town as available - hydrant flow testing, water tank elevations with min/max water levels, pump rates, customer demand, etc. to calibrate the existing tor represent the existing water system. system model. 020241 TRCI ARights Reserved PRL-240921 Princeton AIA Water Proposal Stacy Johnson, Mayor Water System AIA Princeton, NC TRC Note any deficiencies found in the system as indicated by the water model, such as Perform analysis and visual inspection of existing water system components. Perform Financial Analysis and Risk-Based Assessment for water system deficiencies insufficient fire flows. Task D. Asset Management Plan and needs. Provide general guidelines for operation of key assets. Provide size, type, and total length of water lines. Task E. Rate Study Evaluate proposed capital improvements and how rates would be affected. Review existing expenses and revenues, project over the next 5 years. Make general recommendation for ifa rate increase is needed, and ifs so to what extent. Review of report content and meet with staff to address concerns and needs. Review past and present budgets to determine funding capabilities and needs. Determine a cost of repairs needed to make system viable and determine how repairs Prioritize capital investments for critically impacted areas of the system. Consolidate findings of CIP, Rate Study, Water Model, Asset Management Plan, and other work and data into a summarized Asset Inventory Assessment. Provide full support in administering funds from NC DEQ, including providing requested updates, ensuring documentation requirements are fulfilled, and any other work which is required to satisfy funding conditions that are not included in the remaining tasks. Coordinate meetings, signatures, submittals, etc. requested by NC DEQ to satisfy Task E. Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) will generate funds through lower treatment costs. Generate final 10-year CIP document. Task G. AIA Summary Report Task H. Funding Administration funding requirements. III.
