Work Progress during April 2008 by Area or System:

1. General:
Western Water proposed an alternate installation of the 84” x 66” wye at the outfall area. This
proposal was reviewed by the Agency and Engineer, who requested additional information
and research before acceptance of the proposed installation. (At the beginning of May,
Western Water’s research concluded that the proposed alternate installation would not be
possible based on the steel cylinder thickness.)

Western Water submitted the March 2008 monthly schedule update. No major changes to the
project baseline schedule were noted.

Western Water (WW) maintained the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan best
management practices (BMPs). Western Water has submitted rain event inspection forms for
the project files.

Western Water continues routine weekly safety tailgate meetings, weekly safety checks, as
well as the monthly safety audit performed by WW’s safety officer. Written reports of all
meetings, checks and safety audits have been submitted for the record.

2. Polymer Facility:
Western Water continued the installation of the new polymer lines, 3-water and 1-water lines
from the west side of the plant road to the pipe sleeves in the structure walls and encased the
new pipes in controlled low strength material (CLSM).
 Western Water and their electrical subcontractor, Aspen Timco, continued trenching and
installing the electrical duct bank from the polymer facility to the CMSA Administration
Building following the alternate routing plan, approved in Change Order No. 003. The pull
box remains to be installed in this area; the duct bank has been encased with red concrete and
backfilled, and conduits have been installed into the Administration Building.

3. Gallery A & B Improvements, including Grit Chamber 3 and Headworks

Western Water rerouted the fire water piping, channel air and Ross Valley Pre-chlorination
lines in Gallery A in preparation for the primary influent channel connection and other
demolition work. Western Water installed a portion of the grit pump piping.

Western Water demolished the parapet wall at the south end of Gallery A/B. They also cut
out the wall below the parapet for the influent channel connection and covered the opening
with framed plywood for the interim until further work is completed in this area.

Western Water set the Aeration Blower in place in the blower room and installed the piping
for the plant air to be connected to the aeration blower.

4. Primary Clarifiers 6 & 7

Subcontractor Stroer & Graff began installing the Type 1 shoring (soldier beam and lagging)
for the primary clarifiers. Soldier beams were installed in the area, but have not crossed the
current plant road yet.

5. Chlorine Contact Tanks (CCT) 5 & 6

Western Water completed the excavation and backfill with CLSM by mid-April. Western
Water placed and compacted 6-inches of aggregate base in preparation for forming the slab-
on-grade for the CCT.

Subcontractor Condon-Johnson began installation of the six drilled concrete piers which will
support the new influent channel from the existing chlorine contact tanks to the new tanks.

6. Effluent Pump Station (EPS)

After completing the excavation and backfill as noted above for the CCT, Western Water
began forming for the slab-on-grade. They also formed and placed the concrete for the drain
sump slab-on-grade.

7. Secant Retaining Wall and other Site improvements

Subcontractor Condon Johnson completed the secant pile retaining wall with the float finish
of the Shotcrete face.

Western Water installed forms, placed and compacted aggregate base material and tied
reinforcing steel for the v-ditch behind the secant pile retaining wall.

Western Water began constructing a temporary access road where the new road will be
permanently installed. The Ross Valley Interceptor pipe under this new road location is not
encased as it is under the current road. Carollo Engineers is working on a design to protect
the pipe under the new road. Western Water will either avoid crossing the Ross Valley
Interceptor in the new road or will only run empty trucks over that area until the new design
is received and installed over the pipe.
8. Aeration Tanks
Aspen Timco, electrical subcontractor, continued installation of conduits on the aeration tank
control building. This work will continue in the month of May and connections made during
scheduled maintenance shutdowns of the tanks.

00039 WESTWATR HARRIS CCT 1-4 Modifications OPN On sheet M-9.5 of the drawings typical detail S200 notes 1/31/2008 2/6/2008
16-Inch 3W that concrete will be chipped and hammered out an
oversized hole in order to recover existing rebar and
place and grout a wall spool for the 16 inch 3 water pipe
line to pass through the existing Chorine Contact Tank
Walls.

We propose to core drill a 20 inch hole for the 16 inch

pipe. For each of the three interior walls we propose to
use 1 link seal grouted in on both sides with 10,000 lbs
grout. For each of the two exterior walls we propose to
use 2 link seals grouted in on both sides and between
using 10,000lbs grout. This is our recommendation.

Thank you

00061 WESTWATR HARRIS PG&E Pull Box OPN The PG&E box at the north end of the plant is sitting 4/15/2008 4/22/2008
approx. 1’ to 2’ lower than Grade. The PG&E inspector
said that an extension ring was necessary to bring the
box to grade. As this was not in the bid documents, it
will be additional work. If this work is required, ATI will
proceed upon approval of Change Order. Verify
requirement and approve Change Order, if necessary.

00065 WESTWATR HARRIS Conduit Penetration at OPN Per the above mentioned drawings, we are to provide a 4/29/2008 4/30/2008
Switchgear thru-wall seal when penetrating the wall. As the conduit
will be stubbing out of the back of the pull box, we do
not know how the seal will work. Please provide a detail
showing the use of thru-wall seal, when used coming out
of a pull box.
