Director Memorandum 19-041




                Date:              April 2, 2019

                Prepared By:       Joseph Zoba, General Manager

                Subject:           Consideration  of  a  Proposal  to  Prepare  a  Biological  Model  of  System
                                   Processes at the Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility


                Recommendation:        That the Board authorizes the General Manager to execute a contract
                                       with Dudek for a sum not to exceed $29,235.


               The  Yucaipa  Valley  Water  is  in  the  process  of  evaluating  improvements  to  the  biological
               processes at the Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility.  In order to reduce uncertainty
               about changes to the biological processes, the District staff is recommending that a biological
               model be created to simulate the proposed changes to the secondary treatment system prior to
               making any physical change.

































               After the model is created and tested, the District staff would evaluate the benefit of purchasing
               the modeling software for $2,500 so it can be maintained and further calibrated for use in the
               future.
