Designs, data and assessments RISK MANAGEMENT 16
17
Risk Assessment of Designs 17 Original design Lessons learned McKim & Creed design Before bridge investigation McKim & Creed design After bridge investigation
18
Medium Risk Register and Criteria 18 Probability 1: 0 – 20% 2: 20 – 40% 3: 40 – 60% 4: 60 – 80% 5: 80 – 100% Impact 1: < $100 K 2: $100 K – $250 K 3: $250K – $500K 4: $500 K – $1M 5: > $1M IMPACT PROBABILITY Low High Low Medium High
19
What is a Risk Register? 19 Identify Issues Potential Risks Estimate Probability of Occurrence Estimate Impact ($) Risk Score Probability times Impact Lower the Better Mitigation Plan Additional Field Work Modify Design Monitor During Construction
20
Analysis of microtunneling 20 High jacking force i.e. “stuck machine” Environmental impact to Hudson Bayou Mixed face conditions hard soils on part of machine, soft on another Unexpected geotechnical conditions Line and grade deviations outside of tolerances Pipe breaking Differing Site Conditions claims Damage to the bridge
21
Risk Example: High Jacking Force 21 Mitigation Plan Extensive geotechnical investigations Prescriptive specifications Monitor during construction Probability & Impact Probability reduced from 5 to 1 Impact remains at 5 Risk Score Reduced from 25 to 5 Contingency reduced from $900K to $100K Probability x Impact = Risk Score Note: High Jacking Force happened twice during initial construction.
22
Relative Risk score (total) Original design 120 McKim & Creed design Prior to bridge inspection 36 McKim & Creed design Post bridge inspection 25 Current design reduces risk significantly from original design 22 Risk Management Results
23
23 Additional factors considered Bathymetric Surveys Nettles (2013)6-8 feet Forensic/Hyatt (2014)7 feet Geotechnical Borings – Foundation Material Phase 1 Report7-10 feet (each side of bridge) Bridge Inspection (2014) 9 feet (mid Bayou) Reclaimed Water Main (1997) East of Bridge (ROW) Centerline (-16 feet)
24
Methods, plans and other considerations ALTERNATE ROUTES 24
25
Open Cut vs. Microtunneling Evaluate options to re-use existing wetwell Open Cut 25 Microtunneling

31
Open Cut Considerations 31 Easements and land acquisition required Regulatory permits - FDEP/Sarasota County - Sovereign Submerged Lands - Environmental Resource Permit - FDEP/ACOE Variances Environmental Documented Lead Contamination (2001 Boyle Report) Geotechnical Investigations Borings/Bathymetric Schedule
32
Operational Impacts 32 Period submergence of sewer system -Reduced conveyance capacity -More frequent pipeline cleaning -Increased odor potential in neighborhood Hydraulic Institute Standards not met -Un-even flow patterns -Increased frequency of wet well cleaning -Increased wear on one pumping unit -Air entrainment/cavitation -Reduced pumping capacity -Less energy efficiency -Reduced life expectancy for pumps Additional operational and maintenance costs
33
Normal Operating Conditions Open Cut 33 Elevation -13.5 ft. Overflow hazard Odors Gravity Sewer Wetwell Odor Control
34
Surcharge Conditions Existing Wetwell Design 34 Elevation -13.5 ft. Overflow hazard -TBD ft. Odors Manhole Existing Wetwell Gravity Sewer
35
Upgrades will still be required… 35 Wet Well Slab Modification required to withstand Cat 3 Storm Surge Stand-by Pump Reliability required

Lift Station 87 Funding Options 2014 Rate Sufficiency Analysis Annual Rate Increase 53
54
Option 1 Cash while maintaining CIP funding level Defers $20 million of Infrastructure projects Between 2015 and 2020 54
55
Option 2 Bond debt while maintaining CIP funding level One time rate increase in 2017 In addition to planned 4% No infrastructure projects deferred Rate increase to fund debt service 55
56
Option 3 Bond debt while maintaining CIP funding level No rate increase related to Lift Station 87 Annual 4% rate increase is necessary Defer some infrastructure projects $1.8 million per year until loan is satisfied 56
57
Staff Recommendation Option 3 Bond debt while maintaining CIP funding level No rate increase related to Lift Station 87 Annual 4% rate increase is necessary Defer some infrastructure projects $1.8 million per year until loan is satisfied Finance and Utility Departments will review with rate sufficiency consultant Identify and develop best value option Present to Commission 57
