Agreement, shall not exceed TWENTY-NINE THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED NINETY-
THREE DOLLARS and 00/100 ($29,993.00)without the prior written authorization of City.
b. The above compensation shall include all costs, including, but not limited
to, all clerical, administrative, overhead, insurance, reproduction, telephone, travel, auto rental,
subsistence and all related expenses.
3. Payment. .

or complexity of work, or for any other reason, shall be made unless and until such extra services
and a price therefor have been previously authorized in writing and approved by City as an
amendment to this Agreement. City's Project Manager is authorized to approve a reduction in the
services to be performed and compensation therefor. All amendments shall set forth the changes
of work, extension of time, and/or adjustment of the compensation to be paid by City to Contractor
and shall be signed by the City's Project Manager, City Manager or City Council, as applicable.

cause of the delay,Contractor must document any delay and request an extension of time in writing
at the time of the delay to the satisfaction of City. Any extensions granted shall be limited to the
length of the delay outside Contractor's control. If Contractor believes that delays caused by City
will cause it to incur additional costs, it must specify, in writing, why the delay has caused
additional costs to be'incurred and the exact amount of such cost at the time the delay occurs. No

Assistant Water Manager
Public Works Department,Water Division
City of Orange

Orange,CA 92866
Subject: Proposal to Evaluate the Causes and Recommend Potential Mitigation for Increased
Dissolved Gas Levels in Well 23
Dear Mr.Tran:
We understand from our conversations with you that Well 23 has historically produced water with
excess amounts of dissolved gas,which is caused by conditions in the aquifer. The recent addition of
treatment facilities for removing PFAS on Well 23 effluent have apparently increased the levels of
dissolved gas. This increase is evident when comparing the turbidity caused by excess dissolved gas
precipitation in samples collected from the treatment plant effluent and the treatment plant influent.
Based on our experience with similar wells,we recommend measuring Total Dissolved Gas(TDG) in your
system using a Total Dissolved Gas Analyzer. The TDG method is the best practice for measuring excess
dissolved gas in water and is conducted under the operating pressure of your system. TDG
measurements provide a cumulative,total dissolved gas pressure(in pounds per square inch)of all of
the dissolved gasses in your water(i.e.,oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide). If the amount of dissolved
gas changes at any point in your treatment process,then the TDG analysis will accurately measure
increases(or decreases)within a 0.5%(0.5 psi)accuracy. When combined with hydraulic pressure
measurements in your system,TDG measurements can be then easily interpreted to determine where
gas may be precipitating or re-dissolving in the.process by measuring changes in the TDG levels at
different points in the process. We have successfully used this approach to solve an almost identical
problem to Well 23.
Following is our proposal to evaluate the causes of increased dissolved air levels in Well 23.
1.0 REVIEW HISTORICAL OPERATING DATA AND DEVELOP TEST PLAN
Geoscience will review historical well and treatment plant operation and recommend sampling points
and duration for TDG analysis. Geoscience staff will query state water quality databases for,records of
constituents that may be impacted by total dissolved gas.levels.
Following the initial analysis,Geoscience will meet with City of Orange staff at the wellsite to review
sampling point access for equipment and finalize the treatment plan: '

Proposal to Evaluate Causes and Recommend Potential Mitigation for Increased Dissolved Gas Levels in Well 23 10-Oct-22
2.0 CONDUCT TDG SAMPLING
TDG sampling will occur during several complete operating cycles of Well 23,from when the well is first
brought online,to when the well is shut-down and then subsequently brought back online. Automated
TDG analyzers with data collection, located at monitoring points upstream and downstream of the
treatment plant,will be used to measure TDG levels. In addition to TDG levels,flow rate and hydraulic
pressure will be required at each monitoring point throughout the testing cycle. It is assumed that the
City of Orange is currently measuring this data for Well 23 and'that data will be provided.
3.0 TDG ANALYSIS
Data collected from the TDG sampling will be analyzed along-with flow and pressure data at each
sampling point. A flow,TDG and hydraulic pressure profile will be developed for the upstream and
downstream monitoring points over the wells operating cycle. Results will then be analyzed to"
determine changes in TDG levels as a function of well operating cycle,and the potential sources of TDG
changes. •
Based on the results of the analysis,we will develop conceptual level mitigation strategies and costs that
would be required to design and implement these strategies.
4.0 PRESENTATION OF FINDINGS
Once we have analyzed the data from TDG sampling,we will meet with your team to discuss the results,
and potential mitigation options for reducing TDG in the effluent of Well 23.We will prepare a technical
memorandum summarizing the testing methods, results of the testing and potential mitigation
strategies.
5.0 PROJECT MANAGEMENT. .
Geoscience will provide project management and administration during the course of work.
Our cost proposal to perform Tasks 1 through 5 is$29,993 as detailed in the attached Table 1.Thank you
for the opportunity to submit this proposal.Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call
me at(909)451-6650.
