Regular Council STAFF MEMO Meeting: Regular Council - Jan 13 2022 Staff Contact: Matthew Hammond, Utilities Department: Utilities Director Accept Water Treatment Plant Process Efficiency and Automation & Water Distribution System Studies SUMMARY: February 2021 the Village Council approved Work Authorizations CM U21.01 and CM U21.02 with Chen -Moore & Associates, in the amounts of $74,820 and $124,400 respectively, to complete a Water Treatment Plant (WTP) Process Efficiency & Automation Evaluation and Potable Water Distribution System Hydraulic Model & Evaluation. Chen -Moore, in conjunction with Wright -Pierce, completed the projects simultaneously during 2021. The WTP Process Efficiency & Automation Evaluation identified improvements to increase efficiency by lowering power and chemical use, evaluated the existing control system hardware for a cohesive and planned upgrade and recommend methods to further automate the treatment processes. Village WTP operators and Instrumentation & Controls vendor were involved throughout the project. The results of the WTP Process Efficiency & Automation Evaluation were incorporated into the Water System Capital Improvement Plan and the Water Treatment Process Efficiency & Control Improvements project currently in final design and permitting. The Hydraulic Model & Evaluation project developed a hydraulic model of the Village potable water distribution system, including piping and high -service pumping system, to identify water system improvements and to properly size the water mains being replaced in the Village water main replacement program to meet the hydraulic needs of the system. System fire flow recommendations, model results and the recommended improvements were developed with and reviewed with the Village Fire Department. The water main sizing and identified water system improvements are currently being incorporated into the water main replacement projects and Water Treatment Process Efficiency & Control Improvements project. The signed and sealed technical memorandums summarizing the results of each evaluation are attached for review.

EI MEMORANDUM DATE: 12/30/2021 PROJECT NO.: 20597 SUBJECT: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan 1. INTRODUCTION Wright -Pierce (WP) and Chen Moore and Associates, Inc. (CMA) are developing an improvements plan for the Village of Tequesta (Village) water distribution system (WDS). Work associated with the project includes the following: • Developing and calibrating a hydraulic model of the Village's WDS • Evaluating the hydraulic performance for the existing WDS • Developing improvements, including sizes of replacement water mains for the Village's asbestos -cement (AC) piping, needed to satisfy the hydraulic needs of the WDS • Developing an implementation plan and cost opinions for the improvements This technical memorandum (TM) summarizes aspects of the work and includes improvement prioritization and cost opinions for the proposed improvements. 2. POTABLE WATER SYSTEM OVERVIEW The Village owns and operates Public Water System (PWS) No. 4501438, which is permitted through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). The PWS provides potable water to customers within the Village's water service area through approximately 5,045 connections. The PWS includes 14 groundwater wells, a water treatment plant (WTP), and a WDS consisting of over 72 miles of water distribution mains. The WDS has three emergency interconnects (two with the Town of Jupiter and one with South Martin Regional Utility). Figure I provides an overview of the Village's WDS.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 3 of 34 The FDEP permitted maximum daily operating capacity for the PWS is 6.33 million gallons per day (MGD) (approximately 4,395 gallons per minute (gpm)).The Village's South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) Water Use Permit (WUP No. 50-00046-W), which expires on October 31, 2031, allows the Village to withdraw up to 1,594 million gallons (MG) annually (approximately 3,024 gpm based on a 366-day year), with a maximum monthly withdrawal limit of 230.11 MG (approximately 5,154 gpm based on a 31-day month). The WTP consists of a 2.7-MGD sand filter treatment process, a 3.66-MGD reverse osmosis (RO) treatment process, one 0.75-MG ground storage tank (GST), one 2.0-MG GST, and one high -service pump station (HSPS) consisting of seven high -service pumps (HSPs) which pump finished water from the GSTs into the WDS. Table 1 provides details related to the HSPs.

Pipe nominal diameters range from 2 inches to 16 inches. Pipe materials include AC, ductile iron (DI), high -density polyethylene (HDPE), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The primary material associated with the oldest portions of the WDS, installed between 1950 and 1970, is AC. It should be noted that the table below includes updates to the nominal diameter and pipe materials, as discussed throughout this TM. Page 368 of 488 Agenda Item #16.

APPLICABLE RESOURCES The methodology used to develop the hydraulic model and demand allocations depends on the types of data available. The following resources were made available for these efforts: • Geographic Information System (GIS) shapefiles of the WDS piping, fire hydrants, emergency interconnects, and isolation valves • Excel files containing WTP finished water Flow Reports for 2018 through 2020 • WTP Monthly Operating Reports (MORs) for 2017 through 2021 • Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) data for all WTP GSTs and HSPs for the period discussed later in this TM • A summary of the locations, operating schedules, and volumes flushed for each automatic flushing device • Access to Sensus Analytics' online portal containing automatic meter reading (AMR) customer meter data for the period discussed later in this TM • A copy of the 2020 Facilities Assessment Update Report prepared by Kimley-Horn (2020 Facilities Assessment Report). • Record drawings for the Village's WTP GSTs and HSPS • Pump curves for all HSPs Page 369 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 5 of 34 4. MODEL DEVELOPMENT WaterGEMS' ModelBuilder tool was used to create the model piping from a GIS shapefile of the WDS piping. The model piping contained the lengths, nominal diameters, materials, and installation dates defined in the GIS shapefile. Subsequently, AC pipe materials in the model were updated to be consistent with information contained in the 2020 Facilities Assessment Report because the City believes this report most accurately represents the presence of AC piping within the WDS. Model pipe junctions were generated to connect pipes with ends within a 1.0-ft proximity. Piping connectivity was subsequently reviewed and updated with input from the Village. Model development also included the activities list below, which are discussed in the proceeding subsections: • Establishing boundary conditions • Assigning pipe inside diameters and Hazen -Williams C-Factors • Assigning elevations 4.1. ESTABLISHING BOUNDARY CONDITIONS Representations of the WTP GSTs and HSPS were established based on the provided WTP record drawings, pump curves, and discussions with the Village's operations and maintenance personnel. The HSPS discharge pressures used in the model were set to observed discharge pressures. 4.2. ASSIGNING PIPE INSIDE DIAMETERS AND HAZEN-WILLIAMS C-FACTORS The use of pipe inside diameters, as opposed to pipe nominal diameters, has the potential to reduce to overall effort associated with Hazen -William C-Factor adjustments during the calibration process. The model pipe diameters were converted from nominal diameters to inside diameters to the extent practical. The inside diameters were established based on the pipe nominal diameters and materials, the water system specifications included in the Village's Water Department Manual of Standards, and American Water Works Association (AWWA) standards Page 370 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 6 of 34 related to the specified water system piping. As discussed in various reference materials, Hazen -Williams C-Factors vary based on the pipe diameter, material, and interior condition resulting from years of service. The Hazen -Williams C-Factor for a specific pipe also varies based on flow velocity, or more accurately stated, the Reynold's Number. The Hazen -Williams C-Factors selected for use in the model were back -calculated from headloss values calculated using the Darcy-Weisbach and Colebrook -White friction factor equations for the various pipe diameters and materials. The following assumptions were made in the calculations: • Absolute roughness values for the various pipe materials correspond to piping that has been in service and exposed to nonaggressive water for 20 years or more. • Typical water system velocities occur. The updated pipe inside diameters and the initial Hazen -Williams C-Factors used in the model are summarized in Table 3. Page 371 of 488 Agenda Item #16.

ELEVATION ASSIGNMENT The elevations for all model pipe junctions were assigned using the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s 2018 National Geodetic Survey (NGS) Topobathy Lidar digital elevation model (DEM), which appears to reasonably represent the ground surface elevations throughout the WDS service area. The horizontal projection and vertical datum associated with the DEM are as follows: • Horizontal Projection: North American Datum 1983 (NAD 83), State Plane Florida East • Vertical Datum: North American Vertical Datum 1988 (NAVD 88) Generally, decreasing the elevation of a model junction by 2.31 feet increases the calculated Page 372 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 8 of 34 pressure at the junction by 1.0 psi. Based on the direct relationship between the calculated pressure and elevation, the assignment of elevations is relative but must be consistent. Typically, it is not practical to assign actual pipe centerline elevations to all model junctions. Instead, junction elevations are usually set either at grade or some assumed depth below grade. The Recommended Standards for Water Works states the following: The system shall be designed to maintain a minimum pressure of 20 psi (140 kPa) at ground level at all points in the distribution system under all conditions of flow. For this reason, the junction elevations were set to grade. This allows the model -simulated pressures (e.g., during fire flow conditions) to be directly compared to the minimum pressure criteria without need for elevation adjustments. 5. DEMAND ALLOCATION Demand allocation consisted of accounting for all water supplied to the WDS and geospatially allocating all water supplied to the system (i.e., the "demands" of the system) in a realistic manner throughout the model. Demand types included the following: • Customer Demands: Metered water uses associated with the geospatial reference points representing the locations of water customers • Automatic Flushing Demands: Metered water uses associated with geospatial reference points representing the locations of the automatic flushing devices • Nonspecific Spatiotemporal (NS) Demands: Water loss and all other water uses that typically cannot be spatially and temporally defined in an efficient and realistic manner. These demands generally include non -metered demands (e.g., leakage) and some metered demands (e.g., hydrant flushing in response to a specific customer complaint). Demand allocations are described in further detail in the following subsections. Page 373 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 9 of 34 5.1. CUSTOMER DEMANDS Individual customer water usage (customer demand) is recorded throughout the Village's WDS using Sensus Analytics' AMR meters. Customer demand data are typically transmitted from the AMR meters to a central database on an hourly basis. Daily customer demand data associated with all meters AMR meters were exported from Sensus Analytics' online portal for May 5 and May 6, 2021 (the Calibration Period). The average customer demand for each AMR meter for the Calibration Period was exported for use in the model. Coordinates and addresses associated with each AMR meter were used to create a GIS shapefile containing geospatially oriented points representing each customer meter. WaterGEMS' ModelBuilder tool was then used to import the customer meter GIS shapefile into the model. 5.2. AUTOMATIC FLUSHING DEMANDS The Village's automatic flushing data included the locations, operating schedules, and flushing volumes for each of the five automatic flushing devices installed in the WDS. Within the model, each automatic flushing device was represented by a new junction at its appropriate spatial location, with the demand set to the corresponding average flushing rate. 5.3. NONSPECIFIC SPATIOTEMPORAL (NS) DEMANDS The total WDS NS demand was estimated using the difference between the total volume of finished water produced and the sum of the following demand volumes over the Calibration Period. This amount was then then converted to an average demand: • Total customer demand volume • Total automatic flushing demand volume • Total fire flow volume The NS demand was allocated to each model junction (excluding junctions representing Page 374 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 10 of 34 automatic flushing device and those between the GSTs and the HSPs) proportionally to the surface areas of the connecting pipes. The allocation method essentially treats the overall NS demand as leakage and assumes a constant leakage rate per pipe surface area throughout the model. 6. MODEL CALIBRATION Model calibration is intended to enhance the ability of the model to accurately predict conditions observed in the system. The calibrated model may then be used to predict future system conditions based on existing data and can be used as a planning tool. The calibration process consists of iteratively comparing model -simulated results with observed, field -measured results (from data collection) and making modifications to the model to minimize the discrepancies between the two. Modifications primarily include adjusting Hazen -Williams C-Factors associated with water system piping and adjusting boundary conditions. The model was calibrated using the results of the 20 fire flow tests performed on May 5 and May 6, 2021. Figure 2 provides a map of the system with the approximate locations of the fire flow tests. Appendix A provides a summary of the locations of all fire flow tests. Additional details regarding the fire flow tests and the collection of data, which were completed by the Village and CMA, were provided in the Field Data Collection Plan, previously submitted to the Village.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 12 of 34 Following completion of the fire flow tests, Wright -Pierce compiled the test results and 1-minute interval SCADA data presenting the GST levels, WTP HSPS discharge pressures and flows, and speed and statuses (ON/OFF) for all HSPs. This infonnation, along with the automatic flushing device summary, were used to accomplish the following: • Establish the appropriate boundary conditions settings (e.g., WTP HSPS discharge pressure) and overall system demand to use in the model when the static and residual pressure readings were taken for each of the 20 fire flow tests • Establish the appropriate flow rate to apply to the applicable hydrant locations when residual pressure was measured during each of the 20 fire flow tests • Establish the patterns to apply to customer demands, automatic flushing demands, and the NS demands included in the model so that the sum of these demands equaled overall system demand when the static and residual pressure readings were taken for each of the 20 fire flow tests During the model calibration, significant discrepancies were found between model -simulated and field -measured pressures. After reviewing the system, the results of the preliminary calibration effort were discussed with the Village. Based on coordinated efforts between the Village and WP, the following conditions were found: • The Village's southern emergency interconnect with the Town of Jupiter water system was open during the fire flow tests. • Piping within the Jupiter Inlet Colony was recently replaced, with many of the pipes being upsized. • A closed valve was found in the northwest portion of the system prior to the subaqueous crossing of the Loxahatchee River. Subsequently, demands were adjusted, the piping within the Jupiter Inlet Colony was updated, the closed valve was incorporated, and the calibration effort was completed. The calibration goal Page 377 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 13 of 34 was ± 3 psi, meaning model -simulated pressures should be within -3 to +3 psi of the field - measured pressures. It should be noted that the recorded residual pressure readings associated with nine fire flow tests were the same as the record static pressure readings. After review of the data and the system, Wright -Pierce eliminated these residual pressure readings from consideration in the calibration effort. Table 4 summarizes the results of the calibration and includes the field -measured results, model -simulated results, and the difference between the model -simulated and field -measured results.

Overall, 90% (18 of the 20 static pressure measurements) of the model -simulated static pressures were within ± 3 psi of the field -measured static pressures and 100% (20 of the 20 static pressure measurements) of the model -simulated static pressures were within ± 4 psi of the field -measured static pressures.

Since the Village intends to perform water quality modeling of the WDS, WP recommends performing additional data collection during the water quality modeling effort to better improve the representation of the actual WDS in the model and hydraulic model calibration results in localized portions of the WDS. 7. WDS HYDRAULIC EVALUATION The calibrated hydraulic model was used to evaluate the hydraulic performance of the existing WDS and recommend improvements to replace AC mains and to satisfy the Village's WDS level of service (LOS) goals. WP coordinated with the Village to summarize the Village's LOS goals, which are provided in Appendix B for reference. Page 380 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 16 of 34 Model scenarios were developed and executed for the existing WDS and the improved WDS for each of the following system demand conditions: • Maximum daily demand plus fire flow (MDD + FF) • Annual average daily demand (AADD) • Peak hourly demand (PHD) The Village's WDS is essentially built out. Table 5 presents the demands associated with the indicated demand conditions.

EXISTING SYSTEM HYDRAULIC ANALYSES MDD + FF Analysis The Village, in collaboration with the City of Tequesta's Fire Department, established the fire flow goals for the Village's WDS. The fire flow goals are provided in the figure included in Appendix B, referred to herein as the Fire Flow Goals Figure. An MDD + FF analysis was performed to assess if the available fire flows throughout the WDS satisfy the fire flow goals. For this analysis, 509 junctions representing the approximate locations of fire hydrants within the WDS were assigned fire flow goals of either 1,000 gpm, 1,500 gpm, or 2,250 gpm, in accordance with the Fire Flow Goals Figure. For the analysis, minimum local residual and minimum system pressure constraints were each set to the regulatory minimum pressure requirement of 20 psi. Page 381 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 17 of 34 The results of the fire flow analysis indicated that the fire goals could not be satisfied at 44 of the 509 locations. Figure 5 shows the locations where the fire flow goals were satisfied (shown in green) and locations where the fire flow goals were not satisfied (shown in red). AADD and PHD Scenarios AADD and PHD scenarios were performed to assess if the existing system is adequately sized to satisfy the Village's LOS goals during AADD and PHD demand conditions. Table 6 compares the model -simulated WDS pressure ranges and the maximum water main velocities for the AADD and PHD scenarios to the LOS goals established for this project. The model results indicate that the existing system is adequately sized to satisfy the Villages LOS goals during AADD and PHD conditions.

IMPROVED SYSTEM HYDRAULIC ANALYSES The results of the Existing System Hydraulic Analyses indicate that the system is adequately sized to satisfy the Village's LOS goal under AADD and PHD conditions. However, some fire goals are not satisfied during MDD demand conditions. Wright -Pierce met with the Village to discuss near -term improvements that are currently in design/construction and proposed WDS improvements needed to better satisfy the Village's WDS fire flow goals. These near -term and proposed improvements were incorporated into the model for use in the Improved System Hydraulic Analyses. MDD + FF Scenarios The MDD + FF analysis was repeated for the improved system. The results of the fire flow analysis indicated that the near -term and proposed improvements resolved 34 of the 44 shortfalls previously identified. Figure 6 shows the locations where the fire flow goals were satisfied (shown in green) and locations where the fire flow goals were not satisfied (shown in red). Table 7 summarizes the 10 shortfalls and includes the associated model junction IDs, Hydrant IDs, fire flow goals and availability, pipe size comments, and recommendations for additional study to potentially eliminate the remaining shortfalls.

WRIGHT-PIERCE Engineering a Better Environment MEMORANDUM AADD and PDH Scenarios Although the existing system can satisfy the Village's LOS goals under AADD and PHD conditions, the AADD and PHD scenarios were repeated to document the findings associated with the improved system. Table 8 compares the model -calculated WDS pressures ranges and the maximum water main velocities for the AADD and PHD scenarios to the Village's LOS goals. The model results indicate the improved system is adequately sized to satisfy the Village's LOS goals during AADD and PHD conditions.

WRIGHT-PIERCE Engineering a Better Environment MEMORANDUM 7.3. WDS IMPROVEMENTS PLAN The 2020 Facility Assessment Report established the Village's initial AC pipe replacement program, which was envisioned to be accomplished in 15 phases. The initial AC pipe replacement program assumed that replacement piping would not need to be upsized and did not prioritize phases for implementation. This section presents a WDS Improvements Plan, which accomplishes the following: • Updates the AC pipe replacement program with replacement pipe sizes needed to reasonably satisfy the Village's LOS goals • Incorporates other WDS improvements needed to reasonably satisfy the Village's LOS goals • Prioritizes the improvements • Provides cost opinions associated with the improvements The WDS improvements are proposed to be accomplish in 19 phases. To provide consistency and avoid confusion, the first 16 phases of the WDS Improvements Plan presented herein are identical those in Village's initial AC pipe replacement program, with the exception of Phases 1 and 4, which the Village indicated have been combined into Phase 1. Figure 7 provides an aerial overview of the 19 phases associated with the WDS Improvements Plan. A map which presents additional details associated with each phase is presented in Appendix C. Table 9 provides a summary of the linear footage of pipes proposed for abandonment and for construction for each of the Improvement Areas.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 26 of 34 7.3.1. PRIORITIZATION OF RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS —RISK ANALYSIS A risk analysis was performed to prioritize the improvement phases for implementation. The risk analysis is intended to account for an asset's physical condition and is quantified as the asset's Likelihood of Failure (LoF) and the impact that the asset's failure could have on system performance, known as the asset's Consequence of Failure (CoF). The asset's (or pipe's, in this case) overall risk is calculated as: Risk = LoF x CoF The pipe's LoF Score is calculated based on the weighted average scores of the following characteristics: • Material • Life transpired • Nominal diameter • Hydraulic performance Note: Hydraulic performance was based on the pipe's ability to satisfy fire flow goals. The pipe's CoF score is calculated based on the weighted average scores of the following characteristics: • Nominal diameter • Overall system demand shortfall • Service interruption • Transportation Note: Overall system demand shortfall was estimated by performing a Criticality Analysis using WaterGEMS' Criticality Tool. The Village's isolation valves GIS point shapefile was imported Page 391 of 488 Agenda Item #16. Memo To: Matthew Hammond, PE Subject: Water Distribution System (WDS) Improvements Plan Page 27 of 34 into the hydraulic model and isolation valves were assigned to WDS piping based on proximity. The Criticality Tool was used to segment the WDS into the smallest possible isolatable parts and, using a pressure -based hydraulic engine, determine the overall system demand shortfall in the case that each segment is taken out of service (as would be the case with pipe breaks or valve closures). Appendix D includes a summary of the LoF and CoF scoring criteria and associated weighting factors for reference. LoF and CoF scores can range from 1.0 to 5.0, resulting in a pipe's overall risk ranging from 1.0 to 25. Improvement phases received weighted average risk scores calculated as the sum of the linear footage (LF) of pipe multiplied by its associated risk, divided by the total linear footage of pipe for the improvement phase: Improvement Phase Risk = �n 1 LFi X Riski Improvement Area LFZ where i represents an individual pipe within the Improvement Phase and n represents all pipes included in the improvement phase. Table 10 summarizes the Improvement Phase Risk Scores and the proposed implementation order. (Improvement Phases with the higher risk score are recommended for implementation earlier.) Note: Improvement Phases I and 2 are prioritized for implementation first and second, respectively, as these projects are already in progress (based on discussions with the Village).

WDS IMPROVEMENT COSTS The preliminary Opinions of Probable Construction Cost (OPCC) and Opinions of Probable Project Costs (OPPC) were determined for each Improvement Phase, which account for the costs of installing new pipe and abandonment (grouting) of existing pipe. The preliminary OPPC is estimated at 30% of the preliminary OPCC, which accounts for survey, geotechnical, preliminary and final design, permitting, and construction phase services. Table 11 provides a summary of the OPCC and OPPC for each Improvement Phase. A summary of costs per linear footage for new pipe construction and pipe abandonment are included in Appendix E for reference. Page 393 of 488 Agenda Item #16.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 3 of 43 BACKGROUND Wright -Pierce, Inc., on behalf of Chen Moore and Associates, Inc., has prepared this Technical Memorandum presenting process efficiency and automation evaluations of select processes at the Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant (WTP). The scope of these evaluations was detailed in Consulting Services Work Authorization Project Water Treatment Plant Process & Resource Improvements Evaluation Task 2 (Process Efficiency Evaluation) and Task 3 (Process Automation Review). The SCADA System Review and Component Planning, is evaluated in a separate Technical Memorandum. PROCESS EFFICIENCY EVALUATIONS The Village of Tequesta (Village) owns and operates Public Water System (PWS) No. 4501438, which provides potable water to the customers within Village's water service area through approximately 5,045 connections. The PWS generally consists of fourteen groundwater wells, a water treatment plant (WTP) with two separate parallel treatment systems, and over seventy-two miles of water distribution mains ranging in size from 4-inch to 16-inch in diameter. The WTP generally consists of a 2.7 MGD maximum -day permitted sand filter treatment process, a 3.6 MGD maximum -day permitted reverse osmosis (RO) treatment process, one 0.75-MG water ground storage tank (GST) and one 2.0-MG GST for finished water storage, and two high service pump stations (HSPS). In 2000, the Village constructed the first phase of the RO treatment system to treat brackish water from the upper Floridan aquifer (UFA), producing 1.2 MGD of finished water. The RO treatment system was expanded in 2007 to produce 2.4 MGD and expanded again in 2011 to produce 3.6 MGD of finished water. The treated water from the sand filter treatment process and RO treatment process is combined in a clearwell, prior to being pumped into the GSTs near the Transfer Pump Station and delivered to the distribution system via the High Service Pump Stations. The various WTP expansions have resulted in treatment components and communications systems that are currently not working at their optimum efficiency. The control systems hardware has been modified and compounded as each upgrade or expansion has occurred and do not necessarily mesh well together. Additionally, there are process control systems that can be upgraded, providing an increase in automation and allow more control over the treatment processes. As a result, the Village has requested the Chen Moore and Associates, Inc. and Wright -Pierce, Inc. team to evaluate the existing water treatment processes to identify potential means to increase efficiency by lowering power and chemical use, evaluate the existing control system hardware for a cohesive and planned upgrade, and recommend methods to further automate the treatment processes. Process efficiency evaluations, which are presented in this section, were split into three groups based on the primary treatment processes at the WTP: RO membrane treatment, RO post- treatment, and sand filtration treatment.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 4 of 43 Reverse Osmosis System Reverse Osmosis System Evaluation The RO system consists of three (3) parallel, two -stage RO trains currently in operation at the plant, each with a corresponding multi -stage vertical turbine high pressure membrane feed pump and cartridge filter per train, and chemical injection systems. The high-pressure pumps drive brackish water through the RO membranes producing clean water or permeate and rejected water or concentrate. The RO permeate passes through two (2) parallel degasifiers, is then mixed in a finished water clearwell and is then pumped using three (3) vertical turbine transfer pumps to the two (2) on -site GSTs. The RO concentrate is discharged into an intercoastal outfall. Each RO block or train has a treatment capacity of 1.2 MGD. The trains are arranged in a 27x13 array with 27 vessels in the first stage and 13 vessels in the second stage, for a total of 40 pressure vessels per train, as shown in Figure 1. Each pressure vessel in Train 1 and 3 contain six (6) 40-inch Hydranautics CPA5-LD elements installed in 2011. Train 2 contains four (4) 60-inch KOCH TFC 8" elements installed in 2007. The train framing is constructed of aluminum with 316 stainless steel piping connected with Victaulic couplings. FIGURE 1 TWO -STAGE RO SYSTEM Brackish Stage 1 Feed Water Permeate High -Pressure Pump Concentrate/Reject Water The performance of the RO plant was analyzed for the period from January 2015 to December 2020. The summary of the RO plant operational data is shown in Table 1. The normalized specific flux for each membrane block was compared and shown in Figure 2. The membranes in the RO block 3 showed the highest normalized specific flux of all three blocks during the analyzed period. Its normalized specific flux values were approximately 0.2 gallons per sq. ft. per day per psi (gfd/psi) in 2016 and decreased to 0.15 gfd/psi in 2020. The membranes in RO blocks 1 and 2 showed similar normalized specific fluxes during the analyzed period. Their normalized specific flux values were approximately 0.14 gfd/psi in 2016 and decreased to 0.12 gfd/psi in 2020.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 5 of 43 The salt passage for each membrane block is compared in Figure 3. The membranes in the RO block 3 showed the lowest total dissolved solid (TDS) salt passage of all three blocks during the analyzed period. The salt passage values for RO block 3 were approximately 0.7% in 2016 and gradually increased to 1.5% in 2020. The membranes in RO blocks 1 and 2 showed a similar salt passage of 1.2% in 2016. The salt passage for the membranes in RO block 2 gradually increased at a higher rate than in RO block 1, resulting in a salt passage of approximately 1.9% in 2020. The membranes in RO block 2 showed the lowest normalized specific flux and highest salt passage. These membranes were installed in 2007 and are close to the end of their lifespan.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 8 of 43 RO System Energy Optimization A well operated brackish water RO system minimizes the feed pressure and number of membranes used, while maximizes permeate quality and recovery. The energy consumption of the high- pressure feed pumps to drive water through the membrane elements is the major operating cost of a RO brackish water treatment plant. The approach to reduce the energy consumption in the RO plant includes: (i) the use of new highly permeable membrane to reduce the water resistance during production; (ii) the use of more efficient high-pressure pumps with variable frequency drives (VFDs) to have tighter feed pressure control; (iii) the use of interstage booster pumps to balance the fluxes and reduce the feed pressure; and (iv) the use of energy recovery devices with a booster pump using the high pressure concentrate to reduce the feed pressure. The use of new membrane elements will reduce the water resistance and pressure needed to drive brackish water through the membranes. The installation of new membranes is estimated to result in approximately 5-10% less power consumption. The membranes in the RO block 2 showed the lowest normalized specific flux and highest salt passage. These membranes were installed in 2007 and have the highest priority for replacement of the three RO blocks. The membranes in the RO block 2 could be replaced by Hydranautics CPA5-LD elements or similar. The performance of membranes in RO block 1 and 3 suggest these membranes do not need to be replaced at this time. The RO plant is fed by three multi -stage vertical turbine, high-pressure membrane feed pumps. Each is equipped with 8.22-inch diameter impellers and a 300 HP motor. Pumps 1 and 2, which are approximately 20 years old, have been de -staged to a total of 8 stages. Pump 3, which is approximately 10 years old, has a total of 8 stages. The use of more efficient high-pressure pumps with VFDs can provide improved feed pressure control reducing the power consumption of the RO plant. The installation of more efficient high-pressure pumps with VFDs is a high capital cost that could be considered in the future when the high-pressure feed pumps reach the end of their lifespan. However, the installation of VFDs for the high-pressure feed pumps could be considered as an intermediate step to reduce the energy consumption. The proposed VFDs can improve the control of the feed flow and pressure, reducing energy consumption of the high-pressure pumps by approximately 10%. Additional reduction of energy consumption can be achieved by adding interstage booster pumps. Interstage booster pumps are used to balance the stage fluxes, reducing the feed pressure needed, and balances the wear on the first and second stage membranes. VFDs in the high-pressure feed pumps will be needed to control the feed flow and pressure while operating the booster pumps. With a booster pump, the first stage can be operated at a pressure 20 to 25% less than at normal condition, the second stage can be operated at a higher pressure and flux, thus leading to a smaller membrane area needed, therefore reducing the electricity consumption and capital cost. The configuration of the two stage RO system with interstage booster pump is shown in Figure 4. Additional equipment proposed in Figure 4 is highlighted for clarity.

These devices are a component that are typically included in a RO plant of this size. The use of interstage booster pumps with PXDs can be used to balance the flux for each stage, using the high pressure concentrate to reduce the feed pressure. VFDs in the high-pressure feed pumps will be needed to control the feed flow and pressure while operating the booster pumps and PXD. With a booster pump and PXD, the first stage can be operated at a pressure 20 to 25% less than at normal conditions; using concentrate pressure, the second stage can be operated at a higher pressure and flux, thus leading to a smaller membrane area needed. This combination can further reduce the electricity consumption in comparison to only interstage booster pumps. It is anticipated that the overall recovery of the system will remain the same. In addition, the integration of the booster pump and pressure exchange device is not anticipated to affect the ability to transport the concentrate stream to the existing intercoastal outfall discharge location. The configuration of the two -stage RO system with interstage booster pump and pressure exchange device is shown in Figure 5. Additional equipment proposed in Figure 5 is highlighted for clarity.

The costs provided include labor, materials, equipment, contingency and engineering. Table 3 shows a summary of the energy saving estimation per RO block for each recommended option.

These membranes were installed in 2007 and have the highest priority for replacement of the three RO blocks. The performance of membranes in RO block 1 and 3 suggest these membranes do not need to be replaced at this time. New membranes in the RO block 2 will reduce the water resistance and pressure needed to drive brackish water through it. The installation of new membranes will result in approximately 5-10% less power consumption. It is recommended to replace the membranes in the RO block 2 with Hydranautics CPA5-LD elements, or similar. The use of VFDs for the high-pressure pumps can provide a tighter, more precise, feed pressure control reducing the power consumption of the RO process. The installation of VFDs for the high- pressure feed pumps should be considered as an initial step to reduce the energy consumption. The new VFDs can improve the control of the feed flow and pressure, reducing energy consumption of the high-pressure pumps by approximately 10%. In addition, the VFDs will be needed to further reduce the energy consumption if the booster pumps and PXDs are implemented. Based upon the options evaluated, the option that combines interstage booster pumps and PXDs has the highest project cost and energy savings and the shortest estimated payback period (13 years using the simple payback method). In this option, the interstage booster pumps with pressure exchanger devices can be implemented after the installation of the VFDs in the high-pressure feed pumps. The VFDs will be needed to control the feed flow and pressure while operating the booster pumps and pressure exchanger device. An energy savings of $48,300 per year per RO block was estimated when comparing this option to the current operational conditions (see Table 3). In addition, PXDs in this option produces 199 tons/year of CO2 per RO block less than the current operational conditions. These devices do not consume electricity and act as a recirculating pump using the high pressure concentrate to reduce the feed pressure. As a result, it is recommended that the Village of Tequesta consider this option.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 13 of 43 The option with only feed pump VFDs and interstage booster pumps has a lower project cost and lower energy savings. An energy savings of $24,700 per year per RO block was estimated when comparing this option to the current operational conditions. This results in a longer estimated payback period of 21 years. Decoupling the RO System and the Filter Treatment — RTW Modeling Evaluation The Rothberg, Tamburini & Winsor Model for Water Process and Corrosion Chemistry (RTW Model) is used to assist in the task of evaluating water chemistry associated with precipitation/coagulation and corrosion potential of water. The model uses calcium carbonate chemistry to evaluate water stability and to predict changes in water stability and other water quality factors resulting from chemical treatment approaches. For this evaluation, the RTW Model was used to evaluate the feasibility of decoupling the RO treatment system and filter system with the goal of allowing the Village of Tequesta the ability to operate the RO system independently. Under this operational scenario RO permeate that is normally blended with water from the filter system would require chemical addition to stabilize the RO permeate before it could enter the Village's distribution system. This evaluation investigated the scope of chemical addition necessary to stabilize the RO permeate and meet the Village of Tequesta's current water quality standards. This section does not describe the addition of chlorine or ammonia for disinfection — this is discussed in a subsequent section of this memorandum. The RTW Model has a user input expected water quality parameters and then calculates interim water quality characteristics to see if the input water quality parameters will result in desirable (i.e., stable) water quality characteristics. Table 5 lists these inputs and resultant characteristics and desired value or range of resultant characteristics.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 14 of 43 additional post -treatment chemical addition is needed to stabilize the water. The RTW Model allows the user to simulate adding chemicals to the water and see how this affects the resulting water quality characteristics. Tequesta's RO permeate requires the addition of a base to increase pH and the addition of a calcium source to meet several water quality characteristics. Adding caustic, which is already available at the WTP, will increase pH. However, calcium addition would require the addition of a chemical not currently available at the WTP. Calcium could be added in the form of lime (e.g., slaked lime) or by-passing water through a calcite contact media bed. It may be possible to by-pass raw brackish water around the RO membranes to remineralize water and save on chemical costs. If Tequesta desires to decouple their RO system, it is recommended that a RO by-pass blending analysis be performed to assess the viability of this possibility. The additional caustic required is expected to approximately double the caustic consumption at the WTP and the addition of lime would require the addition of a new unit process operation at the WTP (e.g., a facility to slake and dose lime). Chemical usage could be reduced by modifying RO membrane process to allow for a raw water bypass; however, this option may not be palatable to WTP operations staff who historically do not like to intermittently change membrane operating conditions. Further investigation is recommended if WTP management staff feel the addition of added system complexity is worth the ability to decouple the RO system from the filter system. RO Post -Treatment (Degasification and Air Scrubbing) RO post -treatment at the Tequesta WTP includes degasification to strip hydrogen sulfide from RO permeate followed by air scrubbing for odor control. Degasification is performed in either of two degasifiers (Duall Model ST10-108) which are each rated to treat 1,250-1,650 gpm of water with up to 10 mg/L of hydrogen sulfide. The degasifiers are rated to remove 93% of available hydrogen sulfide when water entering the degasifier has a pH of less than 5.5. Air scrubbing is performed in a two -stage scrubber system (Duall Model PT510-54). Each degasifier has a dedicated scrubber system. The scrubbers are rated to remove up to 99% of hydrogen sulfide when operated in series, at a high pH (9.5-10.5). To achieve a high pH in the scrubbers, caustic is dosed into process water that is continually recirculated through the scrubbers. Operators have noted two performance issues with the degasifier and scrubber systems: 1. Intermittently, water in the clearwell that receives degasified permeate will be slightly turbid and require a higher -than -normal chlorine dose. This suggests that the degasifier is having performance issues and hydrogen sulfide is not being adequately removed from the permeate water stream before entering the clearwell. This sulfide content results in an increased chlorine demand in the clearwell and when the sulfide is oxidized, a portion of the sulfide becomes elemental sulfur, increasing turbidity. 2. Intermittently, there will be a sulfur odor around the WTP. This suggests that the scrubbers are having performance issues and hydrogen sulfide is being emitted into the surrounding atmosphere.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 15 of 43 Wright -Pierce contacted CECO Environmental, the manufacturer of the Duall degasifiers and scrubbers at the Tequesta WTP, to discuss these performance issues and received recommendations to troubleshoot both systems. Verne Buehler, P.E. at CECO Environmental, an applications engineer in the Industrial Air and Fluid Solutions group was consulted on these issues. Discussions focused on noted operator performance issues and a review of graphics generated from historical operator logs and the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system data. A summary of the discussion and findings are presented in the next two subsections. Duall Degasifier Performance Operator logs showing the daily pressure differential in both degasifiers over the past year were reviewed. The pressure differential in each degasifier is measured daily using the Magnehelic gauge on the side of each degasifier. Readings are recorded on a daily checklist by an operator physically walking out to the degasifier and reading the gauge. Degasifier pressure differential data are presented in Figure 6. Figure 6 shows that the pressure drop recommended by the manufacturer for the degasifiers is between 0.5 and 1.5 inches of water. Degasifier 1 is within this range throughout the evaluated time period (1/l/2020 to 6/16/2021). However, Degasifier 2 is consistently below the recommended operating range throughout the evaluated time period. The Duall applications engineer noted the lower pressure differential could indicate one or more of the following: - The Magnehelic gauge could have condensate or a blockage in the tubing causing a reading error. Duall recommends operations staff inspect the Magnehelic tubing on Degasifier 2 to verify the tubing is clear of any blockage and is providing an accurate reading. - The air flowrate through the degasifier is lower than the rated capacity. Duall recommends verifying the air flow rate through the degasifier. This can be performed by connecting an air flow measuring device (e.g., pitot tube) to a straight run of air piping between the degasifier and 1 st stage scrubber. - Loss of packing material. Duall recommends a visual inspection inside the degasifier to verify the degasifier has all of the packing material present and that the material appears to be in good condition. As of this reports writing, the Village has already contracted a vendor to replace the media in both degasifiers.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 17 of 43 Operator logs showing the daily permeate pH measured at each degasifer over the past year were reviewed. This pH value was measured as a grab sample by operators on a daily basis and the readings were recorded on a checklist. Degasifier pH data is presented in Figure 7. The pH data from historical SCADA records were also reviewed. There is a pH meter (AIT 2010) installed that continually measures the pH of RO permeate that is being transferred to the degasifiers. Figure 8 plots hourly pH values from meter AIT 2010 over one year (5/27/2020 — 5/27/2020). Both Figure 7 and 8 show the same trend — the pH in both degasifiers remains at a relatively constant pH value of approximately 5.0 through the beginning of February 2021 and then rises to pH level of approximately 5.5. Duall recommended a maximum pH threshold, as shown on both figures, of 5.5. Approaching or exceeding this threshold can lead to an increase chlorine demand and turbidity in the clearwell. This result can be explained by referring to Figure 9 which shows the speciation of sulfide species based on the pH of water. At a pH of 7.0, approximately half of the sulfide in water is hydrogen sulfide, a strippable gas, and half is bisulfide, an aqueous species that cannot be stripped by air. As pH decreases, the portion of the total sulfide in water shifts to be more hydrogen sulfide dominant. This shows the importance of keeping the pH of water low when in contact with air in the degasifier. For example, at the Duall threshold of pH 5.5 approximately 97% of sulfide in water is in the form of hydrogen sulfide. However, if the pH of water increases to 6.0, only 91 % of sulfide is in the form of hydrogen sulfide. This number decreases further to 76% if the pH further increases to a pH of 6.5. Hence, ensuring the pH of water is below the Duall recommended threshold of 5.5 is paramount to achieving efficient degasifier performance. It is recommended that Tequesta operations staff maintain a pH setpoint of 5.0 for water entering the degasifiers. This setpoint will provide operations staff a buffer in case pH intermittently shifts due to a process interruption (e.g., start-up or shut down of an RO skid) and allow time for Tequesta's sulfuric acid feed system to react. However, if operators are confident that they can maintain a pH closer to the 5.5 threshold without appreciably exceeding the threshold, this may be preferable as operations would save on caustic usage downstream. It is recommended that the next time operators note an increase in turbidity and chlorine demand in the clearwell, SCADA data from this time period is promptly reviewed. Continuous data from the last 24 hours can be easily reviewed in Tequesta's current SCADA system with an automatically generated graph of pH over time for meter AIT 2010. This will allow operators to see if the pH during this the time period increased or remained under 5.5, consistently. If the pH rises above 5.5, operations may have to reassess how they can modify chemical dosing to ensure the pH remains under this threshold to ensure consistently effective degasifier performance.

The pressure differential in each scrubber is measured daily using the Magnehelic gauge on the side of each scrubber. Readings are recorded on a daily checklist by an operator physically walking out to the scrubber and reading the gauge Scrubber pressure differential data is presented in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows the recommended pressure drop for the scrubbers by the manufacturer is between 2.0 and 3.0 inches of water. Logged data from Scrubber 1 was not included in Figure 10 as the majority of logged values were either omitted or listed as "0", suggesting that the Magnehelic meter for this scrubber was not working properly for the evaluated time period. Results for Scrubber 2 show that the differential pressure in the scrubber is consistently within the manufacturer's recommend operating range. However, results from Scrubbers 3 and 4 are consistently above the manufacturer's recommend operating range. The Duall applications engineer noted this higher pressure differential could indicate one of the following: - The Magnehelic gage could have condensate or a blockage in tubing causing a reading error. Duall recommends operations inspect the Magnehelic tubing on Scrubbers 3 and 4 to verify the tubing is clear of any blockage and is providing an accurate reading. - The packing in the scrubbers may be fouled. Fouling could be due to precipitation of minerals and/or biological growth. Duall recommends operators open each scrubber (or at a minimum Scrubber 3 and 4) and inspect the packing. Ideally packing would be inspected at several locations within each scrubber to verify packing is clear of fouling throughout the scrubber. If fouled packing is present, the packing will require cleaning and possibly replacement. As of this report's writing, the Village has already contracted a vendor to chemical clean the media in all four scrubbers. Fouling of packing causes water to short circuit in the scrubber. This results in ineffective air scrubbing and can lead to the scrubbers discharging air that contains sulfide that is odorous. The Duall applications engineer noted that the combination of high differential pressures with frequent odor complaints suggests that fouling of packing is the likely operational issue with the scrubbers.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 23 of 43 Operator logs showing the daily pH measured at each scrubber over the past year were reviewed. These pH values were measured daily as grab samples by operators and the readings were recorded on a checklist. Scrubber pH data is presented in Figure 11. Figure 11 shows the manufacturer's recommended minimum pH threshold for first stage scrubbers at 10.5 and the minimum pH threshold of second stage scrubbers at 9.5. Results show that the pH in all four scrubbers is consistently above these recommend thresholds. This suggests pH within the scrubbers is not the cause of current operational issues. Post -Treatment Improvement Costs Additional inspection of Magnehelic tubing, verification of air flowrate, and inspection of packing material is needed to determine total costs to improve RO post -treatment performance. Duall noted that Village operations staff could perform all of these tasks if they are capable and have the appropriate equipment. However, Duall does offer a System Audit where they have a Duall technician visit the facility, calibrate equipment, inspect packing material, and evaluate system performance. In addition, the technician can train operators on best maintenance practices and recommend monitoring techniques. Duall provided a budgetary quote for this service equaling $11,335 for one (1) three-day on -site visit. This quote from Duall is provided in the appendix to this memorandum. Depending on the results of packing inspections cleaning of packing material may be needed. The degasifier and scrubber O&M manual present a "Packing Cleaning Procedure" that could be accomplished by Village operators if deemed appropriate (the cleaning procedure includes handling solutions of sulfamic, hydrochloric, and sulfuric acids). In a worst case scenario, packing may have to be replaced. Duall estimates the packing material (Jaeger Tri-Packs) costs approximately $40/cubic foot. Each degasifier contains approximately 727 cubic feet of packing and each scrubber contains approximately 181 cubic feet of packing. As a result, replacement of packing for each degasifier is estimated to cost $29,100 plus labor, and the replacement of packing for each scrubber is estimated to cost $7,250 plus labor.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 25 of 43 Sand Filter Treatment System Hydraulic Analysis of Decommissioning the Filter Transfer Pumps The Tequesta WTP utilizes sand filtration for the removal of iron from the groundwater supplied by the surficial aquifer. The sand filtration treatment system includes the following: six (6) sand filters, a surge tank, three (3) transfer pumps, and chemical feed systems for chlorine and ammonia. Currently, well pumps convey raw water to the WTP, providing the energy to push water through the pressure sand filters, and finally convey the water to a surge tank, located downstream of the filters and upstream of the filter transfer pumps. Subsequently, the filtered water is transferred from the surge tank to the on -site clearwell using the filter transfer pumps. The filtered water is blended with RO permeate in the clearwell. A hydraulic analysis was performed to determine if water pumped into the surge tank could flow without the operation of the existing transfer pumps, to the clearwell under anticipated operating conditions. The flowrate between the surge tank and the clearwell is based on three primary factors: 1. The water elevation difference between water in the surge tank and water in the clearwell (static head); 2. The condition of pipe between the surge tank and clearwell (pipe friction factor); and 3. The headloss from pipe fittings and other components (e.g., pumps) in the pipeline between the surge tank and the clearwell. Record drawings were reviewed, and a hydraulic model was developed that estimated the flowrate of water from the surge tank to the clearwell based on the height of water in the surge tank. The results of this model are presented in Figure 12. The "System Curve (Existing)" represents the anticipated flowrate through the currently existing pipeline. As shown in Figure 12, if water in the surge tank reaches a height of 12-feet the flowrate is estimated to be 1,800 gpm. The maximum rated flow of the filter system is 1,875 gpm. As a result, given the current pipeline configuration if the maximum rated flow was passed through the filter system into the surge tank the surge tank would not drain by gravity to the clearwell fast enough and the surge tank would overflow. One option is to construct a by-pass line around the current transfer pump station. This would remove the headlosses associated with water flowing through the piping, valves, and pumps associated with the transfer pump station. The "System Curve (Alternative)" represents the anticipated flowrate through this proposed by- pass line. As shown in Figure 12 the reduced headloss translates to an increased flowrate per foot of water in the surge tank. With this new piping configuration when water reaches a height of 12- feet in the surge tank the flowrate to the clearwell is estimated to be 3,750 gpm. As this value comfortably exceeds the maximum rated flowrate of the filter system, it is anticipated that this modification will allow for flow from the surge tank to the clearwell without overflowing the surge tank, under the anticipated operating conditions of Tequesta's filter system.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 26 of 43 FIGURE 12 FILTER TRANSFER PUMP STATION HYDRAULIC MODELING RESULTS 12 10 9 C 2 0 0 400 800 1,200 1,600 2,000 Flow (gpm) 2,400 2,800 3,200 3,600 —System Curve (Existing) —System Curve (Alternative) -----Max Filter System Flowrate It is recommended that on -site testing be performed to verify the developed hydraulic model for the existing piping configuration (i.e., the "System Curve (Existing)" curve). This can be accomplished by turning off the transfer pumps and varying flow through the filter system to the surge tank and monitoring the resulting level of water in the surge tank. Field values should then be compared to the "System Curve (Existing)" in Figure 12. Results can be used to adjust the "System Curve (Alternative)" curve to determine if the direct transfer line between the surge tank and the clearwell that bypasses the filter transfer pumping station (approximately 45 linear feet) would allow for sufficient flow under the anticipated operating conditions of Tequesta's filter system post -calibration. Due to data limitations, the developed "System Curve (Existing)" curve does not exactly match observed operating conditions. This could be due to one or more of the following reasons: (1) reviewed record drawings are inaccurate; (2) valving on the pipeline is partially closed; (3) there is significant corrosion or buildup clogging one or more of the lines between the surge tank and the clearwell; (4) the existing pumps exert a higher friction pressure loss than estimated. This discrepancy further highlights the importance of performing on -site testing.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 27 of 43 Filter total flow records were used to estimate the number of hours the transfer pumps were operated per year, assuming a transfer pump ran at 700 gpm (based on pump performance curves). It was estimated that in 2018, 2019, and 2020, the transfer pumps were in operation for approximately 11,721 hours/year, 10,169 hours/year and 8,364 hours/year, respectively. This results in a 3-year average operating duration of 10,085 hours/year. Using a power cost of $0.07NW-hr, the removal of the transfer pumps is estimated to save an average of $6,318/year. The cost to install approximately 45 linear feet of 12-inch ductile iron pipe to bypass the existing filter transfer pump station is estimated to be $10,000. This results in a payback period of less than one year to implement this change. Desktop Analysis of Converting the Ammonia Gas System to Ammonium Sulfate The Tequesta WTP currently uses anhydrous ammonia as their ammonia source to form combined chlorine. A cost analysis of the ammonia treatment system was performed to determine the cost to transition to a liquid ammonium sulfate (LAS) solution -based system and compare the operating cost of this system to the current anhydrous ammonia system. Chemical usage records were used to determine the average quantity of ammonia used per year at the Tequesta WTP. In 2018, 2019, and 2020, the WTP used approximately 5,972 lbs, 6,447 lbs, and 6,071 lbs of anhydrous ammonia, respectively. This results in a 3-year average usage of 6,163 lbs. Tequesta currently purchases anhydrous ammonia for $0.79/lb, resulting in an average annual ammonia chemical cost of $4,869. An alternative to using anhydrous ammonia is to use a LAS solution. Commercial 40% LAS solution contains approximately 1.06 lbs of ammonia per gallon of solution. To achieve the average 6,163 lbs of ammonia required for dosage by the WTP, 5,835 gallons of 40% LAS solution would be required. At $2.00/gallon, this would cost approximately $11,600 per year. The cost to construct the ammonium sulfate storage and feed system, including a 1,000-gallon storage tank and one duplex peristaltic -pump skid (to serve only the existing injection location) housed inside a concrete containment area with a prefabricated metal canopy, is estimated to be approximately $181,000. While anhydrous ammonia is expected to have a lower annual cost than a LAS system, a LAS system has fewer safety concerns compared to anhydrous ammonia. Anhydrous ammonia poses serious health and safety hazards if not stored and/or handled properly. Anhydrous ammonia is a flammable gas which may form explosive mixtures with air, and as a gas under pressure it may explode if heated. Anhydrous ammonia is harmful if inhaled and can cause severe burns and eye damage. LAS solution poses fewer safety concerns than anhydrous ammonia. However, LAS solution is harmful if swallowed and may cause skin irritation, serious eye irritation, and/or respiratory irritation. As a result, it is recommended that the Village of Tequesta consider transitioning to a LAS system due to the aforementioned safety considerations.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 28 of 43 PROCESS AUTOMATION EVALUATIONS A historical review of how Tequesta WTP was expanded over time provides a background for the need for a process automation evaluation. The original WTP was constructed in 1977, as a conventional iron removal treatment plant and was converted to a greensand treatment facility in 1982. This plant was expanded to 2.7 MGD in 1988, and subsequently converted to a sand filter plant for iron removal. At this time the facility had six sand filters, a transfer pump station, one 0.75-MG ground storage tank, and an outdoor high service pump station. In 1991, a second GST was added to the WTP with a storage volume of 2.0-MG. In 2000, a RO treatment system was added to the WTP along with a second high service pump station was added. The RO system was subsequently expanded to 3.6-MGD over the next several years. Currently, the Tequesta WTP is comprised of two treatment process running in parallel, the filter system and the RO system. The water produced from both processes is blended together in a 70,000-gallon clearwell before being pumped to GSTs, and then delivered to customers using either of two high service pump stations. While process upgrades have been added over time, automation of some of these upgrades, including chemical dosing and chemical parameter monitoring, have not been upgraded. This section reviews the automation of the filter process, RO process, and blending of the two systems, followed by recommended upgrades. As part of this effort, historical process and instrumentation diagrams were reviewed and Tequesta operations staff were consulted to ascertain how processes are currently controlled. This resulted in the development of simplified process and instrumentation diagrams (herein referred to as "process flow and control diagrams") that are used in this section to describe current automation practices and recommended upgrades. These drawings can be found in the appendix to this memorandum. Process Flow and Control Diagrams Four process flow and control diagrams were developed to elucidate current automation deficiencies and recommended upgrades. These four diagrams are presented in the following Drawings and can be found in the appendix to this memorandum: - PR-1 — Process flow and control diagram for the RO system; - PR-2 — Process flow and control diagram for the degasifiers and scrubbers; - PR-3 — Process flow and control diagram for the filter system; and - PR-4 — Process flow and control diagram for the clearwell and ground storage tanks. The Tequesta WTP two high service pumping stations are shown as blocks in PR-4. Additional details regarding the high service pumping stations and an evaluation of the stations' pumping efficiency are provided in a separate technical memo being developed in conjunction with modeling of the Tequesta distribution system.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 29 of 43 Decoupling the RO and Filter Systems to Allow for Independent Operation Tequesta currently operates both the filter process and the RO process simultaneously to achieve the desired water quality. The product water of both systems combines in the clearwell before pumping the blended water to distribution. Tequesta maintains a combined chlorine residual in their distribution system for secondary disinfection. This combined chlorine residual is formed at the WTP by injecting both chlorine and ammonia into treated water. As shown in the four developed process flow and control diagrams, chlorine, in the form of sodium hypochlorite, is currently dosed at the WTP at three locations and ammonia is currently dosed at the WTP at one location. Drawing PR-3 shows the pre -filter and post -transfer pump sodium hypochlorite injection locations and Drawing PR-4 shows sodium hypochlorite being dosed into the clearwell. Drawing PR-3 shows the ammonia dosing location located in the surge tank, after the sand filters. As a result of this current dosing configuration, a combined chlorine residual can only be formed when the filter process is operated as the only ammonia dosing location is located in the filter system. This is one portion of the treatment process that prevents Tequesta from operating the RO portion of their treatment system independently. To allow for decoupling of these treatment processes, an ammonia dosing location must be added downstream of the RO system. Drawing PR-4 shows the proposed dosing location, located after the clearwell transfer pumps (see clouded item (3)). If the RO process is operated independently, sodium hypochlorite could be added in the clearwell with the existing chemical feed pump (M2802) and the existing injection location. Ammonia could then be added after the clearwell transfer pumps, creating a combined chlorine residual prior to storage and distribution. The addition of a second ammonia injection location is not expected to change the average annual ammonia usage at the WTP. As a result, additional ammonia storage would not be required. However, an additional ammoniator would be required to dose ammonia at the proposed location post-clearwell. A budgetary cost for this addition is provided in Table 6, and is estimated to be $91,000. Equipment costs include: the ammoniator, pressure reducing valve from the existing storage tank, injector, and ancillary equipment. A notable additional benefit of this addition is this would allow Tequesta to have a redundant ammoniator on standby in case either ammoniator becomes inoperable. Also, of note, it is possible that this second ammoniator could be controlled by an ammonia analyzer downstream, this possibility and associated costs are presented in the next section. It should be noted that, if in the future, Tequesta injects ammonia only at the proposed secondary injection location, downstream of the clearwell transfer pumps, water chlorinated prior to this location (either from the filter system or RO system) is likely to form regulated disinfection by- products associated with the use of free chlorine (i.e., total trihalomethanes and five species of haloacetic acids). As a result, if Tequesta intends to use only this second ammonia injection location in the future, a free chlorine disinfection by-product study should be performed to confirm that these regulated disinfection by-products maximum contaminant limits will not be exceeded. This study may also impact filter water and RO permeate blending decisions. It is estimated that as study of this magnitude would cost approximately $25,000.

The results of these analyses dictate if certain processes at the WTP need to be adjusted (e.g., modification of a chemical dose). This manual sampling has several notable drawbacks: - It can be time consuming for operators; - If a single analysis is performed incorrectly or interpreted incorrectly it could lead to an operation/treatment error; - A change in a water quality parameter may not be identified for several hours if it occurs between the times of the day when operators sample a given location; and - Operators cannot easily review data trends which could reveal problems with treatment processes. One solution is to add on-line continuous analyzers at several locations throughout the WTP and have the continuous readings sent back to Tequesta's SCADA system for automatic logging and operator review. The following chemical parameter analyzer additions to the WTP are recommended: J:AENG\FL\Tequesta\20555-WTP-EfficiencyStudy\ReportsAProcess Efficiency and Automation TM\Process Efficiency and Automation TM - 20210901.docx Page 438 of 488 Agenda Item #16.

Addition of a pre -filter system chlorine analyzer (see PR-3 (1)). This analyzer would measure the chlorine residual prior to water entering the filter system. The resulting data could show if the pre -filter chlorine dose should be adjusted. If desired, the SCADA system could be modified to have the SCADA system automatically control this chlorine dosing location based on this proposed analyzer's readings. 2. Addition of a pre -surge tank chlorine analyzer (see PR-3 (2)). This analyzer would measure the remaining chlorine residual after water has passed through the sand filters. The resulting data could show if the chlorine dose pre -filter should be adjusted. If desired, the SCADA system could be modified to have the SCADA system automatically control this chlorine dosing location based on this proposed analyzer's readings. 3. Addition of a pre-clearwell combined chlorine analyzer (see PR-4 (la)). This analyzer would measure the combined chlorine residual in water being transferred from the filter system. 4. Addition of a pre-clearwell ammonia analyzer (see PR-4 (lb)). This analyzer would measure the concentration of ammonia in water coming from the filter system. The resulting data could show if the ammonia dose in the surge tank should be adjusted. If desired, the SCADA system could be modified to have the SCADA system automatically control this ammonia dosing location based on this proposed analyzer's readings. 5. Addition of a post-clearwell free chlorine analyzer (PR-4 (3)). This analyzer would measure the free chlorine residual after chlorine was added in the clearwell. A free chlorine measurement is required at this location in the event that the RO system is being operated and the filter system is not being operated. In this case, the analyzer would measure the free chlorine residual from the clearwell, and the resulting data could show if the chlorine dose in the clearwell should be adjusted. If desired, the SCADA system could be updated to have the SCADA system automatically control this chlorine dosing location based on this proposed analyzer's readings. 6. Addition of a post-clearwell combined chlorine analyzer (PR-4 (5a)). This analyzer would measure the combined chlorine residual in water leaving the clearwell. The resulting data could show if the chlorine dose in the clearwell should be adjusted. If desired, the SCADA system could be modified to have the SCADA system automatically control this chlorine dosing location based on this proposed analyzer's readings. 7. Addition of a post-clearwell ammonia analyzer (PR-4 (5b)). This analyzer would measure the free available ammonia concentration in water leaving the clearwell. The resulting data could show if the ammonia dose post-clearwell should be adjusted. If desired, the SCADA system could be modified to have the SCADA system automatically control this ammonia dosing location based on this proposed analyzer's readings. 8. Addition of a distribution system combined chlorine analyzer (PR-4 (7a)). This analyzer would measure the combined chlorine residual in water within the distribution system. The resulting data could show if the WTP should adjust chlorine and/or ammonia dosing. 9. Addition of a distribution system ammonia analyzer (PR-4 (7b)). This analyzer would measure the free available ammonia concentration in water within the distribution system. The resulting data could show if the WTP should adjust chlorine and/or ammonia dosing.

Note that the HACH 5500sc Ammonia Monochloramine Analyzer recommended for monitoring combined chlorine and ammonia also measures temperature and pH. In addition, to allow for flow pacing of chemical dosing it is recommended that a flow meter be installed on the combined discharge header of the clearwell transfer pumps (PR-4 (2)). A cost for this addition is also included in Table 7.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 34 of 43 Automation of Filter Backwashes Based on Filter Pressure Differential Currently, operational filters are backwashed daily, under the set maintenance schedule. Discussions with operators noted that the current potentially excessive backwash regimen (i.e., daily backwashes) is believed to be needed due to the poor media quality in the filters. Operators also believe the media needs to be replaced. This claim is substantiated by a January 2018 memorandum by Kimley-Horn, who recommends media replacement based on a Filter Media Analysis. Reducing the required number of backwashes would both reduce the labor burden on operators and reduce the amount of product water wasted during these maintenance events. There is a possibility of automating filter backwashes based on when the pressure differential across a filter exceeds a setpoint. Operators currently try and keep differential pressures below 10 psi. Operators also noted that backwashing is currently initiated based on iron breakthrough, not differential pressure. Operators sample effluent from the filters and if iron is greater than 0.01 mg/L, operators perform a backwash — this is due to iron breakthrough occurring before high differential pressure. This suggests that automating filter backwashes based on a filter pressure differential setpoint would be inappropriate at this time. This may change if new filter media causes a change in the operation paradigm where pressure differential exceeds the current operator setpoint (10 psi) before the current iron breakthrough setpoint (0.01 mg/L) is exceeded. As a result, automation of filter backwashes should be reevaluated after the filter media has been replaced. OTHER FINDINGS Isolation of 2.0 MG Ground Storage Tank During normal operation Tequesta operates both the filter process and the RO process simultaneously and then blends the product water of both systems in their clearwell. Clearwell transfer pumps then convey the blended water to the 2.0-MG GST which then feeds both on -site high service pump stations and the 0.75-MG GST. Drawing PR-5 displays a site plan of the WTP from a 2009 drawing set and shows yard piping. Relevant control valves on this drawing starting from the RO and filter systems to the high service pump stations are numbered. Table 8 identifies the position of each of the numbered valves during three scenarios.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 35 of 43 Scenario 1 represents normal operating conditions when both the RO process and filter process are in operation. Under this scenario, all of the blended product water must travel through the 2.0 MG- GST before it can pass to the two high service pump stations. This may be problematic if the existing 2.0-MG GST becomes inoperable. If this event occurs, WTP operators appear to have only two additional options, these options are presented in Scenarios 2 and 3. Scenario 2 represents a scenario when the 2.0-MG GST is inoperable and as a result, WTP operations operates only the RO process and bypasses the 2.0-MG GST. Table 8 shows the required position of the process control valves needed to accommodate this operational scheme. Scenario 3 represents a scenario when the 2.0-MG GST is inoperable and as a result, WTP operations operates only the filter process and bypasses the 2.0-MG GST. The clearwell is also bypassed in this scenario. Table 8 shows the required position of the process control valves needed to accommodate this operational scheme. As previously noted in this memorandum, the WTP cannot independently operate the filter process or RO process and meet water quality goals. As a result, the WTP cannot produce water that meets current water quality goals if the 2.0-MG GST is inoperable. A potential solution is to add a by- pass line around the existing 2.0-MG GST. Drawing PR-5 shows a proposed 16-inch ductile iron line that would allow for bypass around the existing 2.0-MG GST. In addition to this line, two (2) 16-inch and one (1) 30-inch butterfly isolation valves would be required to fully isolate the existing 2.0-MG GST. The only drawback of operating the WTP with this by-pass line, would be the reduction of on -site potable water storage. However, as utilization of the by-pass line would only be expected to be in service for short periods of time, this drawback is acceptable and would not violate any current FDEP regulations. A budgetary estimate for constructing the by-pass line as shown on Drawing PR-5 consisting of approximately 150 feet of 16-inch ductile iron (DI) pipe, two (2) 16-inch DI butterfly isolation valves, and one (1) 30-inch butterfly isolation valve is $180,000. Fluoride Exceedance in RO Concentrate at Outfall Discharge RO concentrate from the WTP is treated, transferred, and then discharged at the U.S. 1 Bridge, just west of the Jupiter Inlet. Discharge of concentrate is permitted under FDEP permit FL0168572-004. One of the effluent limitations specified in this industrial wastewater facility permit is the daily maximum total fluoride concentration of the concentrate. The specified maximum value is 5.0 mg/L. Figure 13 presents the measured monthly fluoride concentration of concentrate leaving the WTP and the average value over time from January 2019 to May 2021. As shown in Figure 13, the maximum concentration over the evaluated time period was 8.0 mg/L, the minimum concentration was 2.3 mg/L, and the average concentration was 5.0 mg/L. Ten out of the twenty-nine months evaluated exceeded the maximum effluent limitation level specified in the permit.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 36 of 43 One solution offered to FDEP to ensure discharged concentrate was below the regulated limit, was to dilute the concentrate stream with another water source that has a low fluoride concentration. One available source is finished water from the WTP. To assess the feasibility of this option, two scenarios were developed and evaluated to calculate the quantity of water that would be needed to dilute the concentrate stream. The two scenarios and associated assumptions are listed below: Scenario 1: Finished water was used to dilute the RO concentrate that had a fluoride concentration of 8.0 mg/L, representing the highest concentration over the evaluated record. Scenario 2: Finished water was used to dilute RO concentrate that had a fluoride concentration of 5.0 mg/L, representing the average fluoride concentration over the evaluated record. Assumptions: 1. Finished water from the WTP has a fluoride concentration of approximately 0.0 mg/L. 2. To ensure Tequesta meets fluoride discharge limits, a target discharge concentration of 4 mg/L will be used (20% less than the limit). 3. Tequesta produces 0.382 MGD of concentrate per day. This value is equal to the average RO concentrate flow from Tequesta WTP (Source: Overall Flow Report2020.x1s). Calculation for Scenario 1: (8.0 mg/L)*(0.382 MGD) + (0 mg/L)*(X MGD) _ (4 mg/L)*(0.382 + X MGD) X = 0.382 MGD of finished water would be needed for dilution. Calculation for Scenario 2: (5.0 mg/L)*(0.382 MGD) + (0 mg/L)*(X MGD) _ (4 mg/L)*(0.382 + X MGD) X = 0.096 MGD of finished water would be needed for dilution. Calculations show that under Scenario 1 and 2, Tequesta would need 0.382 and 0.096 MGD of finished water to dilute the concentrate stream, respectively. In 2020, Tequesta produced on average 2.29 MGD of finished water. Therefore, to support the proposed dilution process Tequesta would have to increase potable water production by 16.7 and 4.2 percent for Scenarios 1 and 2, respectively. As a result, diluting the RO concentrate stream may not be a desired, long-term solution due to the cost to treat the water, and possibly consumptive use permit considerations. The potential strain on the surficial aquifer, resulting from the need to produce more water from the filter system, is particularly unpalatable.

Reclaimed water may be an option but impacts to other discharge water quality parameters would have to be considered and FDEP would likely require consultation. Surficial groundwater may also be an option, but the water management district may take issue with utilizing surficial water for this process and would likely also need to be consulted. Raw brackish water could be used to dilute concentrate but as this water already contains fluoride the quantity of water used would be greater than that of finished water. Recent historical records suggest raw brackish water contains approximately 1.2 mg/L of fluoride. Two additional scenarios are evaluated below to conceptually assess this option: Scenario 3: Raw brackish groundwater water was used to dilute RO concentrate that had a fluoride concentration of 8.0 mg/L, representing the highest concentration over the evaluated record. Scenario 4: Raw brackish groundwater was used to dilute RO concentrate that had a fluoride concentration of 5.0 mg/L, representing the average fluoride concentration over the evaluated record. Assumptions: 1. Raw brackish groundwater has a fluoride concentration of approximately 1.2 mg/L. 2. To ensure Tequesta meets fluoride discharge limits a target discharge concentration of 4 mg/L will be used (20% less than the limit).

Tequesta produces 0.382 MGD of concentrate per day. This value is equal to the average RO concentrate flow from Tequesta WTP (Source: Overall Flow Report2020.x1s). Calculation for Scenario 3: (8.0 mg/L)*(0.382 MGD) + (1.2 mg/L)*(X MGD) _ (4 mg/L)*(0.382 + X MGD) X = 0.546 MGD of brackish groundwater would be needed for dilution. Calculation for Scenario 4: (5.0 mg/L)*(0.382 MGD) + (1.2 mg/L)*(X MGD) _ (4 mg/L)*(0.382 + X MGD) X = 0.136 MGD of brackish groundwater would be needed for dilution. Calculations show that under Scenarios 3 and 4, Tequesta would need 0.546 and 0.136 MGD of brackish groundwater to dilute the concentrate stream, respectively. These scenarios would not incur the treatment expense of the RO water as in Scenarios 1 and 2, but would require additional daily pumping from the brackish groundwater wells. This may be a more desirable option if consumptive use limits allow. Other non -dilution options are available. These may include additional treatment for the concentrate stream (e.g., ion exchange) or other concentrate disposal options (e.g., deep well injection). Chemical Containment and Pumping Redundancy Sulfuric Acid The sulfuric acid system consists of a single, linear high -density polyethylene bulk storage tank inside concrete containment (Figure 14), a transfer pump located immediately outside the bulk storage tank containment (Figure 15), a day tank, and two (2) positive displacement chemical feed pumps. The day tank and chemical feed pumps are located across the access drive from the bulk storage tank and chemical transfer pump, inside a chemical feed room. As shown in Figure 14, the bulk storage tank is within a secondary containment structure. In addition, the chemical transfer pump piping, residing outside the secondary containment structure, is contained in secondary containment piping. However, as shown in Figure 15, the chemical transfer pump does not have secondary containment. If the discharge of the pump was to rupture, almost all of the volume of chemical in the bulk storage tank could discharge onto the ground surrounding the transfer pump (as the transfer pump is nearly at the same elevation as the bottom of the bulk tank). To provide secondary containment for the transfer pumping system, it is recommended that the sulfuric acid containment structure is expanded to surround the transfer pump and discharge piping. A budgetary cost for this modification is $10,000.

Memo To: Matthew Hammond, P.E - Utilities Director, Village of Tequesta Subject: Village of Tequesta Water Treatment Plant - Process Efficiency and Automation Technical Memorandum 9/ 1 /2021 Page 40 of 43 Currently sulfuric acid is dosed at two locations: prior to RO membrane treatment (pump M2503) and prior to degasification (pump M2504). When the RO system is in operation, sulfuric acid is continually dosed at both locations. The dosing rate for the pre-RO membrane location is based on a pH analyzer downstream of the pre-RO dosing location, while the dosing rate for the pre- degasifier location is based on pH analyzers downstream of the pre-degasifier dosing location. Currently, as there are only two pumps, there is no redundant standby pump available to be brought online if either sulfuric acid chemical feed pump fails. As a result, if either pump fails the other pump must dose acid at both injection locations which can lead to reduced process control, as chemical flow distribution to either location would be dependent on flow control valving rather than metering pumps. It is recommended that a third chemical feed pump and associated feed piping be installed that could act as a standby pump to be used if either of the current chemical feed pumps fail. This would require interconnecting the proposed pump with the existing pumps and integrating the new feed pump into the SCADA system. A budgetary cost for this modification is $20,000. Sodium Hydroxide The caustic system consists of a single insulated, linear high -density polyethylene bulk storage tank located inside concrete containment, a transfer pump located immediately outside the bulk storage tank containment, a day tank, and three (3) positive displacement chemical feed pumps. The day tank and chemical feed pumps are located across the access drive from the bulk storage tank and chemical transfer pump in a chemical feed room. The bulk storage tank and transfer pump are shown in Figure 16. As shown in Figure 16, the bulk storage tank is within a secondary containment structure. In addition, the chemical transfer pump piping, residing outside the secondary containment structure, is contained in secondary containment piping. However, as shown in Figure 16, the chemical transfer pump does not have secondary containment. If the discharge of the pump was to rupture, almost all of the volume of chemical in the bulk storage tank could discharge onto the ground surrounding the transfer pump (as the transfer pump is nearly at the same elevation as the bottom of the bulk tank). To provide secondary containment for the transfer pumping system, it is recommended that the sodium hydroxide containment structure is expanded to surround the transfer pump and discharge piping.
