TITLE: AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR
EL CAMINO REAL POTABLE WATER SYSTEM PROJECTS,
PROJECT NOS. 38441, 39111, 39151, 50021, AND 50031
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 1275 approving plans and specifications and authorizing the
District Secretary to the Board to advertise for bids for El Camino Real Potable Water System
Projects, Project Nos. 38441, 39111, 39151, 50021, and 50031.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The El Camino Real Potable Water System Projects combines five separate projects located along
El Camino Real from College Boulevard to Carlsbad Village Drive. The projects will be constructed
under one construction contract with separate bid schedules for each of the following CIP projects.
1. El Camino Real Pipeline Crossing at Carlsbad Village Drive, Project No. 39111.
This replaces approximately 200 lineal feet of 10-inch diameter pipeline, which developed
leaks from pipe corrosion and is currently out of service.
2. El Camino Real at Carlsbad Village Drive, Tanglewood Pressure Reducing Station,
Project No. 39151. This project replaces the existing vault, piping, and valves that are at the
end of their useful life.
3. El Camino Real Pipeline Crossing at Kelly Drive, Project No. 50021. This project installs
approximately 300 lineal feet of 12-inch diameter pipeline which will provide a looping
pipeline system to increase water supply reliability for residents in the 255 pressure zone by
providing water from two directions.
4. El Camino Real Transmission Main, Kelly Drive to Lisa Street, Project No. 38441.
Approximately 2,000 lineal feet of 10-inch diameter pipeline will be installed to loop and
connect two separate 255 pressure zones increasing water supply reliability for residential
customers.
5. El Camino Real Transmission Main, located in Jackspar Drive, El Camino Real, and
College Boulevard, Project No. 50031. Approximately 4,000 lineal feet of 12-inch diameter
pipeline will be installed to loop and connect two separate 375 pressure zones increasing
reliability for residential customers.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
This project is categorically exempt from the environmental review process under Section 15302(c)
of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations.

Page 3 of Agenda Bill No.
The total project cost is estimated at $3,012,000 for the construction of the El Camino Real Potable
Water System Projects. It is estimated that additional funds of $1,005,400 from the
Water Connection fund and $344,000 from the Water Replacement fund are required to complete
the project. Sufficient funds are available for additional appropriations. A request for an increase to
the appropriation will be made at the time the project is awarded based on the final bids received.
The Engineer's Estimate incorporates dramatic increases in the cost of fuel, pipeline material,
mechanical equipment, steel, copper, and concrete. Because of the appropriation increase
requested, the following three options are proposed for council's consideration:
Option 1. Approve plans and specifications and authorize the project to receive bids.
Additional appropriations of $1,005,400 from the Water Connection fund and $344,000 from the
Water Replacement fund are anticipated to cover projected expenses. Request for appropriations
will be known once construction bids are received.
Option 2. Do not authorize the approval of plans and specifications and authorization to receive
bids for the above Capital Projects. Under Option 2, the construction of the proposed water line
replacements and system improvements will not occur. Water customers in the 255 and
375 pressure zones in this area of Carlsbad will not meet the Districts requirements for system
reliability. Interruptions in service may occur resulting from pipeline breaks or when future repairs
are being made.
Option 3. Delay advertising project for bids for six to twelve months. However, construction costs are
not expected to decrease if the project is delayed.
Staff recommends Option 1 - Approve plans and specifications and authorize the project to receive
bids. Additional appropriations of funds to construct the El Camino Real Potable Water System
Projects will be requested at time of award.
