STAFF REPORT
VERNON GAS & ELECTRIC DEPARTMENT
DATE:
TO:
FROM:
RE:
November 4,2014
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Carlos Fandino Jr., Director of Ver
Approval of a Professional Services Agreement with Port Canaveral Power
Consultants Inc. for Energy Projects Consultant Services
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council:
l. Find that awarding the agreement as outlined in this staff report is exempt under the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(bX3),
the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the
environment; and
2. Approve the Professional Services Agreement with Port Canaveral Power Consultants,
Inc. ("Port Canaveral"), in substantially the same form as attached to this staff report, for
the purpose of securing Energy Projects Consultant Services. The proposed contract
would include a grand total compensation amount "not-to-exceed" $780,000 over the
three year term of the agreement.
Backqround
The City of Vernon Gas & Electric Department (VG&E) must secure a firm to provide
consultation services for project management and engineering provisions encompassing all
aspects of planning, development, and licensing that may be involved in the commissioning of
energy projects. The consulting firm shall provide valuable insight, offering solutions to meet
the City's business objectives and aggressive goals to expand the portfolio of energy sources
utilized by VG&E, to meet state requirements, and provide the utmost quality of service to
customers within City boundaries. Only to the extent requested by the City, the firm shall
perform energy project consulting on behalf of the City, acting as the coordinating interface
between the City of Vernon and entities such as environmental planning and permit companies,
EPC contractors, the County Planning Department of Kern County, and all other Renewable
Energy suppliers.
On August 2I, 2014, City staff issued a Request for Proposals ("RFP") for Energy Projects
Consultant Services for the Department of Gas & Electric, pursuant to Vemon Municipal Code
section 2.I7.14. The City of Vernon Department of Gas & Electric understands that effective
July 1, 2014, the City implemented a new Municipal Code provision that requires all RFPs to be
sent to at least five (5) vendors that are likely to qualify to submit a bid or proposal. VG&E took
a proactive approach to formally invite eight (8) potential participants along with the Southern
California Public Power Authority ("SCPPA") to ensure that the public within the SCPPA
community was aware of the RFP issued for Energy Projects Consultant Services.
The City received a total of two timely and responsive proposals from qualified firms. A panel
of City staff was assembled and collaborated to select the most suitable firm to perform the
consulting for City energy projects. VG&E's standard RFP rating sheet was utilized to
mathematically grade the individual firms based on four broad categories: Qualifications, cost
and fees, responsiveness, and references. Following this thorough review process, Port
Canaveral achieved a higher comprehensive score and was selected for the proposal award.
Each contractor possessed their own combination of strengths and the selected firm proved to be
better suited to meet the needs of the City at the present time. Overall, Port Canaveral offered a
more focused approach on the requirements for the early phases of energy project development,
unlike their competitor whose expertise was more dedicated to later phases of project planning
and site construction.
In light of the foregoing, it is recommended that Council approve the award of an agreement to
Port Canaveral for a three (3) year term. The total cost to be incurred, covering all sections of
the scope of services, is for an amount not-to-exceed $780,000 over the course of a three year
term. The proposed contract is inclusive of hourly rates and services that would be provided to
Vemon solely on an "as-needed" basis.
Fiscal Impact
The proposed "not-to-exceed" amount is $780,000 over three years. The 2014-2015 budget
includes a line item of $260,000 for the work pursuant to this contract.

The City of Vernon was founded in 1905, is approximately 5.2 square miles in size, and is
located approximately 5 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles Califomia. Over its long
history Vernon has been developed as an industrial community. At the turn of the 20h century
the lands that make up Vemon were comprised largely of farmlands. The presence of three
major rail lines in the area led influential business men and property owners to encourage the
railroad companies to run spur lines onto the farmlands. These rail extensions enabled the
creation of an'exclusively industrial" city. By the 1920's Vernon was attracting large stockyards
and meat packing facilities. ln the '1930's Vernon became the location of choice for many heavy
industrial plants. As economic conditions changed over the decades, these large scale
industrial operations have relocated out of Southem California and Vernon has attracted
smaller, lighter industrial facilities. The City's business-friendly environment, low cost utilities
and key location for trucklng and rail transport continue to position Vernon as an ideal location
for industrial uses.
City Government: The City Council consists of five members, elected from the City at-large,
who serve five-year staggered terms. The City Council annually appoints a Mayor and a Mayor
Pro Tem from its own membership to serve one-year terms.
Labor Force: Vemon has approximately 245 employees, and its departments include a Fire
Department, Police Department, Finance Department, Community Services and Water
Department, Light and Power Department and Health Department. Present bargaining units
recognized include the Vernon Police Officers Association, the Vemon Police Management
Association, the Vernon Fire Fighters Association, the Fire Management Association, and the
Teamsters Miscellaneous Unit. Other labor organizations have expressed an interest in setting
up bargaining units within the Vernon work force. ln addition, the City is in the process of
modifying its employment system from an "at will" to a personnel merit system. lt is adopting
revised personnel procedures.
The City owns and operates an infrequently used historical power plant (Station A) located in
Vernon, California. Station A includes five diesel-fueled reclprocating internal combustion
engines (lCE), each with a nameplate rating of approximately 3.5 megawatts (M\ 4. The

lCEs came online in 1933 and ceased to operate in the mid-1990s. ln 1988, two 7,400
horsepower Allison 571-KA natural gas-fired combustion turbines (known as the H. Gonzales
Units), each with a nameplate rating of approximately 5.5 t\4W, were added to the two open
expansion bays in Station A. ln 1999, a diesel-fueled emergency generator was also installed,
with a nameplate rating of approximately 230 kilowatts (kV$.
ln October 2008, the City had controlled about 54,000 acres of land in fee title, purchase
options, and easements in Kelso Valley, Kem County, California. The City planned to develop
wind and solar energy generating projects on these City-controlled lands as part of the City
of Vernon Renewable Energy Development Program (Program). ln February 2010, the City
sold about 12,500 acres of the wind resource area to NextEra Energy Resources, LLC. Since
that time, the City has continued to evaluate a number of pro.iect layouts on the remaining
City-controlled land known as the JBCWRP. At this time about'18,000 acres may be available
for further wind and solar development.

INTRODUCTION
The City of Vemon has requested proposals for Energy Projects Consultant Services to provide
ceftain services to the City's Gas & Electric Deparlment.
The City of Vernon may be assured that I will provide quality in the requested deliverables in this
proposal as the 'Energy Projects Consultant'. I have been working directly with the City of
Vernon and their technical and legal consultants regarding energy projects for almost a decade. I
have been involved in performing the same services as requested in this RFP on energy projects
for three more decades with two global providers of energy project services namely Fluor
Engineers and Constructors and Foster Wheeler Energy and the top three providers of turbine
electrical generating equipment namely Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Siemens-
Westinghouse Power Corporation and General Electric Power Systems respectively.
I will discuss in the following sections my role in both Renewable and Non-Renewable energy
Projects and how I propose to continue to support the City as their 'Energy Projects Consultant'.
GENERAL SCOPE OF WORISWORK PLAN
There are Nine Services in the RFP that the City of Vernon's Gas & Electric Department is
seeking from a highly qualified consulting firm to provide:
Page | 1
RFP Energy Projects Consultant by Port Canaveral Power Consultants, lnc.
1.
a.
Expertise. Provide technical expertise on the proper and optimal operations ot
Natural Gas fired combustion turbine simple cycle electricity generating power
plants- My primary role would be to monitor the operation of the simple cycle
combustion turbine-generator train and compare the original design specifications in
regard to heat rate and output to the current performance. I would look at the start and
stop procedures being used, ramp rates, and trip schedules to verify that the operators
are performing the way the manufacturer intended. The performance would be
determined through a rigorous test in accordance with the original manufacturer's
guarantee procedure, correction curves and current industrial guidelines similar to
what we use when testing MGS. I would calculate both the Net and Gross output and
efficiencies. Once the performance test results are reviewed and compared to the
expected performance based on the calculated equivalent operating hours the plant
operation would be reviewed to determine that the auxiliary load, which is the energy
required to operate the unit, is minimized and all normal maintenance in accordance
with the manufacture's recommendations is being performed. The aging turbine hot
gas parts and the compressor cleanliness is typically a major degrader of performance.
I would plan with the City operations department a time when the unit may be lock
and tagged out for up to 24 hours. I would then plan for a boro-scopic inspection of
the rotating parts to check for tip clearances and breakage including foreign object
damage. The air cooled generator inspection typically will be to ensure that all
manufacturers suggested and recommended upgrade guidelines have been followed. If
the generator is not in the correct operating sequence timeline for a rotor inspection
we would plan for a boro-scopic inspection to check for winding damages, insulator
coating degradation and the other test points against the manufacturer checklist. Once
all of the above testing and inspection is complete a recommendation report would be
generated to the City outlining the current operation of the plant and recommendations
to optimize it as required using suggested proper operating technique.
Natural gas fired combustion turbine combined cycle electricity generating
power plants- The combined cycle plant is one, two or three actual combustion
turbine generators exhausting through Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG's),
one for each combustion turbine. These individual combustion turbine generators are
inspected and tested identically to a single simple cycle unit described in I (a) above.
The HRSG's supply high pressure steam and low pressure steam to a steam turbine
driver which then exhausts low energy steam to a typical vacuum condenser. We will
not consider dry fin-fan condensers in this proposal due to the inefficiencies they
create and the plumes of heat they generate into the atmosphere. The performance of
the steam turbine is measured as a function of the output, the degree of vacuum in the
condenser, the water flow rates to the condenser tubes, tube pressure profile,
temperature and mass flow to the Turbine high pressure-stop valve and turbine blade
scale build up and tip loss. [n order to evaluate proper and optimal operation of the
combined cycle plant a performance test, similar to what is performed annually on
MGS, is undenaken and net and gross heat rate and output are calculated and
b.

compared to the original design specification corrected to design conditions. A report
is subsequently generated which is based on the individual component thermodynamic
performance and the thermodynamic performance of the whole unit. The results of
these tests serye as the points that are either within the normal operating range based
on (Calculated Equivalent Operating Hours) EOH or outside the range. The
components outside the range will be identified and examined in closer detail on a
component by component basis.
Gas engine electricity generating power plants- The small and large scale piston
gas engines firing natural gas have taken over the market which was previously served
by liquid fueled engines. General Electric (GE) entered the market in 1957 and
currently has natural gas engines in the 1.5 to 9 MW range. The 20 cylinder J-920 has
an output of 8.6 MW's and would fit the foot print of the Station A diesels very well.
Elliott and Rolls Royce have engines which are used in offshore platforms using the
oil well 'natural off gas' however the sulfur in this gas is problematic and corrosive
and the designs in their robust nature tend to be less efficient and not practical for
shore use. The GE J-series is a favorable machine for electricity generation in the 1.5
to 9 MW range. The units are built in three sections generator, engine and
turbocharger. Optimal operations require monitoring of inlet gas pressure and mole
composition of the gas, and operating temperatures. I recommend annual performance
testing of the units, with GE presence to witness, to maintain warranties and output at
guaranteed heat rates.
Wind powered electricity generating turbines and wind farm layouts
with transmission interconnection. Optimal operations shall mean economic
viabitity in the sense of being cost effective for the investor. It means whether or not
the system as a whole is cost effective "within the framework of the relevant energy
policy". In order for a farm to be operated optimally it must be market competitive in
the cost to make power. If the cost is not competitive the farm will fail. The cost to
make power is functionally derived from: mean annual wind speed at the site,
performance characteristics of the turbine model proposed, investment costs, high
technical availability of the wind turbine and running costs, essentially for operation
and maintenance. I additionally provide and manage the variables needed to support
the 'Pro Forma' analysis modelwhich will yield operationaloptimization.
2.Procurement. Assist city in recommending and analyzing potential purchases of
equipment or materials for its electricity generation operations, especially as it
may relate to:
a. Natural gas fired simple cycle electricity generating turbine power plant,
b. Natural gas fired combined cycle electricity generating turbine power plants,
c. Wind powered electricity generating turbines and wind farms,
d. Gas engine electricity generating power plants.
These four equipment types have one item in common and that item is the most
important-cost effectiveness and reliability over time. All equipment purchase
recommendations, including the Siemens LTSA, that I have been assisting the City

with since July 2005 are always the most cost effective for the City and create the
maximum revenue stream financial return among other vendors and selections. I have
30 years of Project Management experience also, prior to 2005 in the energy industry,
and have been involved with every type of purchase required for energy production
facilities for top energy firms including Exxon, Florida Power, Siemens-
Westinghouse-Energy, Foster-Wheeler Energy and Fluor Energy & Constructors. I
offer and would plan to continue serving the City in providing the best recommended
technology, the highest reliability and the best cost effectiveness over the life of the
equipment.
3.Data Analysis. Review and analyze electrical-energy, emissions and output data
to determine:
a. Whether the operations of existing facilities may be improved. I have been
monitoring the operation of MGS since the first start in the fall of 2005 as the City
Technical Services Manager and then continued this role after it was sold (i.e., from
April of 2008 through September 2014). Prior to the sale to Beowulf I worked daily
with City Plant Operations and Maintenance team from an office in Station A in a
leadership role and additionally provided the interface with Siemens to insure that
warranties were respected, emission guarantees were met, output and heat rate were
within the design parameters and maintenance was within industry standards and in
accordance with the warranty requirements from Siemens/Alstom-Sweden thereby
protecting the asset value of the City's investment. Every day we reviewed the output
expectations and made adjustments as necessary to provide the highest efficiency of
operation and maintained a never ending improvement cycle. I provided the technical
expertise during the preparation of the sales documents for MGS and followed through
with assistance to the City in answering all the questions about the plant during the
prospective Buyer Question and Answer exchanges. The fact that the plant was sold at
a very good price when comparing it to market for the same Megawatt output verifies
that the prospective purchasers understood the plant was running in an optimized
manner and that was what they were buying-Quality. In 2007 I created the appendices
of the PPTA in regard to long term output and degradation. These parameters are a
measure of the improvements and optimization results and when the plant was
recently tested in May 2014 against these 2007 projections we demonstrated that
operations were stillwithin the bandwidth of predictable error.
b. Proper operations of electrical generation facilities are being maintained. This
is accomplished with annual performance testing of the facility before and after
scheduled major parts outages. [t is also discussed in 3 (a) above.
c. Which potential purchases would be the best purchases for the city. All
equipment purchase recommendations, that I have been assisting the City with
since July 2005 are always the most cost effective for the Ciry and create the
maximum revenue stream financial return among other vendors and selections. I
have 30 years of Project Management experience also, prior to 2005 in the energy
industry, and have been involved with every rype of purchase required for energy
production facilities for top energy firms including Exxon, Florida Power,
Siemens-Westinghouse-Energy, Foster-Wheeler Energy and Fluor Engineering &
Constructors. I offer and would plan to continue serving the City in providing the
best recommended technology. the highest reliability and the best cost

effectiveness over the life of the equipment.
d. Verification that the turbine and stack at BACT (Best Available Control
Technology) for specific pollutants meet prevailing standards and the specific
limits. During the commissioning of MGS with the City Operations and Maintenance
team and the Siemens-Alstom team we had to meet the limits that the City was obliged
to meet in its Air Permit issued by the Southern California Air Quality Management
District (SCAQMD). Violation of this Air Permit would result in fines and the
potential shut down of the plant. Combustion turbines fired on natural gas or a liquid
fuel control emissions (atmospheric pollutants) in two distinct locations. You have the
emissions design quantities entering the stack from the Heat Recovery Steam
generator (HRSG) after the excess nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO)
are catalytically converted in two distinct zones to the acceptable permitted levels of
CO and NOx in the air permit when they exit the stack. However and most
importantly you have the emissions exiting the exhaust flange of each combustion
turbine before they enter the catalytic zones in the HRSG. These emissions must meet
the equipment supplier guarantees because if the amounts are in excess of the design
amount the BACT will not be able to reduce the concentrations to the values at the
stack exhaust where the permit values are monitored. The reduction of the exhaust
flange limits must be done by tuning/adjusting the combustion dynamics which is
easiest to understand as a temperature profile control along the longitudinal axis of the
combustor section. Cooling the various sections by adjusting pilot and fuel nozzle gas
splits and combustor air flow also affects the output of the turbine and its heat rate.
The verification process that is undertaken measures the output, the heat rate and
emissions just downstream of the exhaust flange so that all are within the turbine
supplier design guarantee and no particular parameter which has a financial
implication to cost effectiveness is outside of the agreed to amount when the contract
terms were agreed to. This tuning and verification process is one that I have been
trained in by Westinghouse-Siemens starting back in 1995 and it is an important
contribution that I believe I offer to the City in this RFP as a projects energy
consultant. The learning process was a hands on process over many years in operating
plants and is not something that is just learned in a few months of dedicated
classroom/field training
4. Operational Improvem ents.
a. Provide technical recommendations on how to improve electrical generation
and distribution efficiencies new or existing combustion turbine power plants
or other electrical generation facilities. Please refer to 3 (a) and 3(d) above.
b. Ensuring adherence to the technical requirements of the City's operating
Siemens and/or Alstom combustion turbines. Please refer to 3 (a) and 3(d) above.
c. Ensuring operations comply with the existing contractual obligations. I have
assisted the City since the sale of MGS in 2008 by studying and analyzing every
monthly invoice since the first invoice for April l0 to 30,2008 and compared it
against the availability, plant output, fuel burden, calculated threshold capacity factor,
scheduled and unscheduled outage and meeting dispatch notices against the PPTA
contractual obligations. After analysis I reporl my findings to the Director of Gas &
Electric and recommend payment and penalties due, if appropriate, to the owner of
Page | 5
RFP Energy Projects Consultant by Port Canaveral Power Consultants, lnc.
MGS. In many instances my analysis has led to lower invoice payments for the City,
several amendments to the PPTA and detailed operating procedure instructions.
d. Monitor performance testing of simple and combined cycle electrical generation
plants for the purposes of measuring efficiencies and emission amounts for
specific pollutants and that the City is meeting prevailing standards and the
specified limits set forth in the Air Permits for that facility. In 2005 when I was the
City Technical Services Manager for MGS I developed with Siemens-Alstom,
RWBeck and McHale performance testing services the test procedure for use in
calculating the performance of both the individual simple cycle portion of the plant
and the overall combined cycle plant. The test procedure evolved through several
actual testing iterations to the procedure we transferred to the buyer of MGS in 2008.
The test procedure is only as good as the correction curves used to verify how the
plant is responding under any atmospheric conditions and fuels composition to the
original new and clean design guarantee. Every year since 2005 I have either worked
internally with the City and now, as a team member and the City representative, with
the buyer of MGS to measure and compare the existing efficiencies and pollutant
amounts from the plant to ensure that the air permit requirements and contractual
obligations are being met. This was memorialized in the availability notices each day
when we bracketed outputs and times at those outputs to stay within the fuel burn
allowed in the air permit.
5. Review Plans. Analyze and/or draft site plans for new or improved natural gas
fueled electrical generating facilities. I assisted the City by providing the technical
representation and coordination of outside technical consultants for the planning and
development goals of several potential City projects including, several versions of the
934 MW combined cycle Vemon Power Plant using either GE or Siemens turbines, a
600 MW combined cycle version'Super Peaker'for fast start full energy load in l0
minutes, a 300 MW version of a combined cycle plant and several simple cycle
versions which were considered for repowering. I worked directly with electrical
energy equipment providers at CE, Siemens-Westinghouse, Siemens, and Alstom-
Sweden on these projects and created operating models with efficiencies and outputs
which were competitive with other proposed projects throughout the industry. Every
project was taken up to the point of having a bound set of plans in accordance with the
California Energy Commission (CEC) requirements. These volumes included all the
studies necessary for review by the CEC, layouts, maps, architectural renderings,
emission profiles from construction to early commissioning, startup, and steady state
operation. I coordinated the public review process with other consultant engineers and
the environmental consultant. Additionally I coordinated the effort necessary to
quantify and qualify the emission offsets required to build these various versions in Los
Angeles County. In all cases, when representing the City, I worked with the
Environmental Consultant for all necessary environmental, planning studies and
environmental permit applications and detailed emissions calculations spreadsheets. I
provided the interface between the environmental consultant and the combustion
turbine manufacturers design engineering and combustion engineering groups to refine
operating models which would meet SCAQMD and CEC guidelines for pollutant
emlssrons.
6. Preoare Documents Assist the citv in various administrative functions. such as:
a. Drafting reports summarizing findings and making recommendations to
policy makers. I have drafted and created reports since 2005 and presented them to
City policy makers and list as examples; validation that the guarantees of Siemens

were met in the performance of MGS in 2006, reported on the issues faced with the
California Department of Toxic Substances Control (or DTSC) on the Pechiney lands
in regard to soils contamination to legal counsel, annual performance test results of
MGS, presentations to City Council on the Tehachapi land development, reported on
the results of meetings of the Board of Supervisors at Kern County, created many
other reports to Directors of Light and Power, attorney consultants and former City
Attorneys to name a few. I would continue to take this support role.
b. Assist in preparing "Requests for Proposals (RFP)": for the hiring of
necessary subject matter experts. I have assisted the purchasing departments of both
the City and Light & Power, with RFP's for engineering design consultants, financial
modelling consultants, environmental engineering consultants, suppliers of wind
measuring equipment, wind analysis consultants, maintenance consultants,
combustion turbine parts consultants, to name a few. I would continue to supply this
service at the discretion of the Director of Gas & Electric.
c. Preparing or reviewing technical specifications for equipment, materials or
labor the city's electric utility would need to purchase. I have assisted the Light &
Power Depaftment since 2005, with the technical specifications for engineering
design consultants, financial modelling consultants, environmental engineering
consultants, suppliers of wind measuring equipment, wind analysis consultants,
maintenance consultants, combustion turbine pafts consultants, to name a few. I
would continue to supply this service at the discretion of the Director of Gas &
Electric.
d. Develop equipment specifications and project proposals.
I have assisted the Light & Power Department since 2005, with the development of
equipment specifications for wind measuring equipment, combustion turbine parts,
combustion turbines, and entire power plants to name a few. I have developed project
proposals for establishing a plan to build out the City's east and west wind lands,
increase the capacity of the City's natural gas fired energy production assets, manage
the City's environmental compliance program consultant with their chemical
engineers and the City Program Manager, manage the environmental permitting
studies for the wind lands and various power plant proposals and I would continue to
do so at the discretion of the Director of Gas & Electric.
7. Proiect Develooment. Assist the City with development and coordination of
project schedules for all energy projects/efforts being developed by the City'
identifying major equipment deliverables, utility interconnection deliverables,
key permit requirements, and preparation of regular project status reports. I
believe the best way to answer this item is to provide the text from a recent
communication with City Executives on August 27'n, 2014. "City Executives,
...... at this time we do not have anything specific for a project that we are
talking to Kern County Planning about except for the Rudnick property which is
landlocked inside of North Sky River and that would be for the City to just be an off-
taker of energy. Additionally we have discussed a very small build with Ogin in the
area of about 36 MW's on City fee lands in the West but have not moved forward since
their price to deliver energy to the City through SP15 is about $20 per MW over
market. The Director of G&E has purchased the City RPS at better prices than these
two potential projects could offer. Kem County Planning is aware of both of these
potential projects and the Rudnick property already has an FEIR in place and is ready
for construction if transmission was in place.
Page | 7
RFP Energy Projects Consultant by Port Canaveral Power Consultants, lnc.
I have a pre-EIR study that we did in2012 which was addressed to the Director of G&E
with the environmental consultant which was ready to submit to the Kern County
Planning Department system in November 2012 for review and due diligence
examination prior to a formal submittal but we held the filing. The project could have
resulted in 180 to 250 MW's of wind energy on the west land contingent on final
micro-siting analysis and any anticipated 'give-ups' during public review. The position
to stop the submittal to Kern County Planning was based on a decision taken after the
City Executives took into consideration that there was pending litigation against Nofth
Sky River and that the City could fall under the NextEra umbrella with this ongoing
litigation and with the advice of their legal consultants they decided to hold which is
where we are today. We are stitl liolding that package-September 9tn, 2014.
Additionally in a meeting with Kern County Planning on this package dated October
12,2012 they suggested that with the pending and unknown outcome of claims against
North Sky River by NGO's and the public opposition it may be in the City's best
interest to go into a hold period.
Upon discussion with the Director of G&E in the winter of 2014 we realized that there
was always the potential opportunity to refresh this proposal process again. I therefore
met with our environmental consultants and sat down and put together a 'what ifl
scenario should the City Executives decide to refresh this proposal. In order to refresh it
there are certain steps that would need to be addressed since some of the studies are
seasonal, some expire over time, some may need to be performed as a consequence of
either ongoing litigation or the Court's ruling on current litigation. We therefore spent
about five weeks researching the subject and created what is referred to as the COV
Schedule MS Project 02-10-14 Update. The schedule sets as a timeline predecessor the
date of 2-14-14 since we had no other date however everything down stream of this
date hinges on that date as its controlling predecessor. If City Executives decide to
trigger the process we can go back and reset the date of Activity TASK ID 2 in the
MASTER file and the rest of the schedule will reset.
We always believed this would be a 'when' not an 'if .
Additionally we have continued to collect wind data using V-Bar without interruption.
V-Bar just received a new contract, after completing the RFP process, and may
continue for three more years.
In order to save cost for the City and after review with the Director of G&E we put
hold on activities with the environmental consultant on the Kem County lands after
completing the schedule previously discussed. In parallel to this activity we selected
two planners with the COV Program Manager for the environmental consultant so that
they would have the task to take over the application process and studies necessary if
the City triggers a restart. The Planners are Patti Murphy who has an excellent history
with City environmental projects and Lisa Yaldez who was the hand off lead from the
previous Santa Barbara office team which has since been shut down. We anticipated the
shut down and planned. Lisa and Patti are familiar with Kern County Planning.
As you all know the environmental consultant successfully bid for the RFP for
Page | 8
RFP Energy Projects Consultant by Port Canaveral Power Consultants, lnc.
environmental compliance and project services and won the contract last month for up
to three more years. There was some discussion about splitting their contract between
compliance and project. The Director of G&E decided, quite correctly, to keep the
contract for these two activities combined so that we could maintain continuity from
2005 which is how long I have been working with the environmental consultant on
similar City projects. The team is ready to start activities with the City should the
decision be made to kick it off again. The RFP which they bid on was tailored exactly
to meet this potential situation. There should be no steps in the wrong direction or
learning curves the way it is set up.
Of course any project needs transmission and the Director of G&8, the legal
consultants and myself have been in discussion with NextEra to mutually understand
what it will take to use the available capacity of their transmission and what
engineering would be required to add capacity and get it off the City fee lands into
SPl5. A meeting is set up to continue the dialogue mid-September, 2014.
8. Proiect Coordination. Take lead in coordinating work among City
departments with environmental consulting firms regarding the management of
environmental compliance permits and documentation, and preparation of
environmental studies for the development of renewable and non-renewable
energy resources. Coordinate work performed by other environmental and/or
engineering firms to ensure consistent approach with the City's energy
objectives, and compliance with regulatory permits for energy projects
approved by the City.
RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJ ECTS
The City of Vemon entered into a sale agreement dated October 8, 2008, with ReNu
Resources, LLC ("ReNu"), a memorandum which was recorded by the County
Recorder of Kern County on October 17,2008 as document number 0208165198,
pursuant to which Vernon purchased approximately 29,722 acres of land in Kern
County, California in an area known as the Tehachapi Wind Resources Area. Upon the
purchase of the property by the City I was tasked with the coordination of all the
specialized consultants which were needed to develop the land for wind and solar
energy generation and a legal consultant to provide oversight of the legal portions of
the process and maintain a rigorous adherence to current and pending law. I also
represented the City to Kem County Planning and neighbors in the surrounding land
parcels contiguous with the City property. The environmental consultant supported the
studies and documentation necessary for a preliminary Environmental Impact Report
(EIR). V-Bar provided ongoing wind analysis which they had begun over l5 years
previous to the city land purchase. Burns and Roe Engineering Consultants, from
New Jersey, supported the technical studies that were required to develop the
infrastructure. Additionally we prepared many documents and solicited competitive
bidding for purchasing of the equipment and contractors needed to support the wind
analysis of V-Bar within the specifications of various governmental agencies and non-
govemmental agencies. I assisted the City with all purchases. I also worked directly
with the support services needed for aerial studies of the biological inhabitants of the
land including the condor, golden eagle and many bird species in addition to land
Page | 9
RFP Energy Projects Consultant by Port Canaveral Power Consultants, lnc.
animals such as burrowing owls, Mohave ground squirrels and endangered tortoises
to name a few.
I also contracted, on behalf of the City, several specialized financial consultants to
perform "Pro Forma" analysis so that the expected energy outputs that were being
calculated by V-Bar wind studies based on the City land wind data, the cost to build
and a time line to commercial operation which was being created with Burns and Roe
intersected with the forecast cost to purchase wind energy and the result were models
forecasting the potential profitability of the projects over life expectancy of 25 to 30
years.
In 2009 I assisted the City to coordinate all the engineering data and models
accumulated to date for the central section of the total of 29,722 acres, an area of
12,240 acres, for a proposed sale using the auction market process. The preliminary
environmental consultant studies were bound in a volume set and became the pre-
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) review package for data adequacy review by the
Kern County Planning Department. We continued with discussions through the
auction process with Kern County and eventually transferred this data with the backup
wind data to the data room used by bidders. The successful bidder accepted transfer of
all of this data and they continued the process with the Kern County Planning
Depaftment so that they were able to reach the Final EIR and construction releases to
meet their target commercial operation date. The project became the North Sky River
wind farm.
In 2010 I assisted the City, the auction company and the legal consultant with a second
auction process to sell the remaining17,482 acres of land in Kern County. I assisted
with the bidder presentations and Question/Answer forums organizing the wind,
transmission and environmental consultants. The process lasted several months and
in December of 2010 the City decided to close the auction process.
In January 201 I the City decided to proceed with a development of the remaining
17,482 acres and I was tasked with assisting the City in the new process. New
meteorological equipment was procured, new contracts were put in place with
meteorological and environmental consultants and construction activities involving the
erection and maintenance of the new equipment was overseen on behalf of the City by
myself. I assisted in arranging for site visits of City staff and contractors and attended
meetings with Kern County Planning staff. On several occasions the City requested
that I support staff with presentations to the City Council. During the period of time
from 201I to 2102 I assisted the City in the preparation of two different pre-EIR
document packages for transmittal to the Kern County Planning Department, however
in each case the City decided to postpone the submittals due to issues that North Sky
River was encountering.
I currently assist the City to coordinate site visits to the 17,482 acres, arrange for the
maintenance of the land when special issues arise requiring immediate attention and
continue to coordinate the meteorological monitoring consultant and review invoices

on behalf of the City.
NON-RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJECTS
In 2005 I commenced representation, on behalf of the City, to the environmental
consultant a world leader in environmental compliance consulting, new projects
environmental permit application preparation and rigorous emissions calculations of
electrical generating equipment and the construction process itself. The environmental
consultant's environmental engineering and planning expertise provided the
documentation and calculations for the voluminous data packages which became the
City applications with the California Energy Commission (CEC), the Southern
California Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) and various county
applications for energy project proposals including Los Angeles County and Kern
County.
I continued assisting the City by providing the technical representation and
coordination of outside technical consultants for the planning and developmental
intentions of several potential City projects including, several versions of the 934
MW combined cycle Vernon Power Plant using either GE or Siemens turbines, a 600
MW combined cycle version'Super Peaker'for fast start full energy load in l0
minutes, a 300 MW version of a combined cycle plant and several simple cycle
versions which were considered for repowering. It was determined at various hold
points, and solely at the City's discretion, not to proceed with these developing
projects for various reasons. I worked directly with electrical energy equipment
providers at GE, Siemens-Westinghouse, Siemens, and Alstom-Sweden on these
projects and created operating models with efficiencies and outputs which were
competitive with other proposed projects throughout the industry. In all cases, when
representing the City, I worked with the environmental consultant for all necessary
environmental, planning studies and environmental permit applications and detailed
emissions calculations spreadsheets. I provided the interface between the
environmental consultant and the combustion turbine manufacturers design
engineering and combustion engineering groups to refine operating models which
would meet SCAQMD and CEC guidelines for pollutant emissions.
9. Coordination of Meteorological Data for Wind Enerw Calculations. Take
lead in coordinating the services of the Meteorological Data Collection
Consultant for the purposes of wind farm turbine layouts, quantities, model,
design efficiencies and all associated measuring equipment maintenance.
Commencing with the City's purchase of the Tehachapi Wind Resources Area
consisting of 29,722 acres on October 8, 2008 I was assigned to take the lead on the
City's behalf to coordinate the meteorological data collection with a wind consultant
and Burns & Roe a renewables plant detailed engineering consultant on the City lands.
We selected V-Bar a recognized expert in the field and a company with over 30 years
of experience performing this work. Although for City management reasons we
instructed Burns & Roe to add them as a sub-contractor under their master contract I
managed both for and on behalf of the City. Due to the size of the land area and its
varying topography we split the land into three data collection areas; west, central and
east. The central area was purchased with existing meteorological towers (met towers)
Page | 11
RFP Energy Projects Consultant by Port Canaveral Power Consultants, lnc.
that were in a state of disrepair and of an outdated design but they were collecting data.
The East and West areas had about three met towers but they were also of an outdated
design. In order to economize on cost and understanding that access to these areas
during the winter is not possible due to snow, ice and storms we focused on the
extrapolation process of taking data from adjacent area studies and the minimal data
from the existing central towers to forecast expected wind and develop energy models.
We purchased and installed two each Triton SODAR 'Sound Detection and Ranging
Technology' (SODAR) units from the firm Second Wind. The findings from SODAR
use show reliable reporting of valid wind data at heights that encompass the full blade
sweep of commercial wind turbines. The gross data recovery is above 95%o, and
correlation to anemometry at 200 feet (the permitted height of the met tower) was 0.97.
We were able to translate the extrapolated data from existing met towers and using that
combined with the SODAR readings V-Bar created a report which predicted what type
of wind energy outputs and availabilities were possible with an acceptable risk factor at
the central hub height of a typical commercial wind turbine. The City decided to use
this data and introduced it into an auction process to put the central area up for sale. In
February 2010 the central land of 12,240 acres was sold for $40 million which was 2
million less than the entire 29,722 acres were purchased for in 2009. The coordination
with the meteorological data collection consultant that I provided proved to be a cost
effective method for the City to realize an excellent return on their initial investment.
After the sale of the 12,240 acres in February, 2010 the City executives stepped back
for approximately six months before deciding to auction the remaining17,482 acres. It
was during this auction process that the City realized that the wind data which was
available for the central sale was inadequate for the east and west lands. The City
executives terminated the process in December 2010. In February 201I under the
leadership of the Director of Light & Power I was assigned to lead the effort to collect
sufficient wind data for the east and west lands to substantiate the great value of the
wind energy on those lands. A plan was formulated and presented to City Council by
myself on behalf of the Director of Light & Power to purchase new met towers and
continue to use, through a process of relocation of, the SODAR units to quantify energy
at wind turbine hub height levels. Working with and coordinating the effort with Kern
County construction permits, met tower design as specified by V-Bar and approved by
the City we purchased 8 more towers for the remaining lands. We additionally
established a contract so that maintenance of the met towers is ongoing therefore the
City can realize the benefit of their investment and not have damaged towers recording
poor data and therefore being subject to rejection by a possible developer in the future
which would lead to a discount in the land value. I continue as the lead coordinator
through September, 20 I 4.

GE TM2500 mobile power plants were liquid fueled combustion turbines
and provided electrical energy for operations until the permanent steam

fossil fuel, algae fuel releases CO2 when burnt, but unlike fossil fuel, algae fuel and
other biofuels only release CO2 recently removed from the atmosphere via
photosynthesis as the algae or plant grew. The energy crisis and the world food crisis
have ignited interest in algaculture (farming algae) for making biodiesel and other
biofuels using land unsuitable for agriculture.

STAFF REPORT
CITY ADMINISTRATION
November 4,2014
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Mark C. Whitworth, City Administrator
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Vernon adopting a Citywide
Fringe Benefit and Salary Resolution regarding the compensation, costs and
benefits of its employees ("Citywide Fringe Benefit and Salary Resolution"),
and repealing all resolutions in conflict therewith.
Recommendations
It is recommended that the City Council:
1) Find that approval of the resolution proposed in this staff report is exempt under the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(bX3),
the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the
environment.
2) Adopt the attached Citywide Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution effective November
4,2014, to reflect provisions as outlined in this staffreport.
Background
The Human Resources Department has worked with the City Administrator's Office and
department heads to identify updates to the City's Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution
(formerly known as the Citywide Personnel and Salary Resolution) as outlined in this report.
In light of the City Council's recent adoption of various memoranda of understanding ("MOUs")
setting forth certain terms, conditions and benefits for employment for classifications represented
by various bargaining units, it is necessary to update the Citywide Fringe Benefits and Salary
Resolution.
Some provisions set forth in recently adopted MOUs effective July 1, 2014, are conflicting with
existing provisions established in the Citywide Personnel and Salary Resolution. The fringe
benefit provisions previously established have become outdated and/or redundant as a result of
the recently adopted MOUs and Human Resources policies and procedures. Staff is
recommending amendments as outlined below, which are incorporated into the attached Fringe
Benefits and Salary Resolution. However, should any provisions set forth in the respective
MOU be in conflict with the amended Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution, the provisions set
forth in the MOU shall continue to prevail.
The fringe benefits section of the Citywide Personnel and Salary Resolution has not been
updated in several years, and various benefit policies have been adopted by individual
resolutions. To enswe a more efficient and effective method in maintaining and managing the
Crty's fringe benefits, it is recommended that the City develop one resolution which incorporates
and consolidates all benefits into the Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution, in conjunction with
adopted MOUs. The proposed resolution is designed to provide a uniform and consistent system
for benefits administration throughout the City. It will promote effective communication among
managers, supervisors, and employees. The Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution will provide
specific information that secures the benefit interests of the City of Vernon and its employees.
In addition, the Human Resources Department has conducted surveys and/or obtained survey
data used to develop the following key recommendations that will address immediate concerns
and provide consistency in the application of similar benefits offered to other employee groups
and benefits offered to non-represented goups across the organization:

Ordinance amending Chapter 12 of the Vernon Municipal Code regarding
Waste Management and Recycling
DATE:
TO:
FROM:
RE:
October 21-,2Ot4
Honorable Mayor and City Council
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
Find that approval, and subsequent adoption, ofthe proposed ordinance is exempt
under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with CEQA
Guidelines sections [a] 15061(b) (3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to
projects that may have an effect on the environment.
2. Hold the first reading of, and subsequently adopt the proposed Ordinance amending
Chapter 12 of the Vernon Municipal Code regarding Waste Management and
Recycling.
3. Approve the general form of the Non-Exclusive Franchise Agreement for Commercial
Solid Waste Collection, in substantially the same form as submitted herewith.
Backeround:
The current Waste Management and Recycling Ordinance and Non-Exclusive Franchise
Agreement ("Franchise Agreement") have been in effect since 1998. Several sections of
Chapter 12 of the Vernon Municipal Code require revisions and/or corrections. With the
existing Franchise Agreements expiring December 3L,2074, it would be prudent to update the
Vernon Municipal Code and form of Franchise Agreement at this time.
With the assistance of outside legal counsel Patrick Munoz of Rutan & Tucker, LLP and the City
Attorney's Office, the proposed ordinance was drafted to amend the Vernon Municipal Code to
clarify some definitions and conditions, expand on the self-haul permitting requirements, and
add recycling requirements for large venues. The ordinance would maintain the existing non-
exclusive franchise hauling system, and would not mandate reductions in the number of
franchised solid waste haulers.
Changes to the current Franchise Agreement include improvements intended to: facilitate
quarterly reporting, increase insurance requirements, increase the certificate of deposit limits,
better protect City finances, and require electronic reporting for quarterly reports. Also,
language was added to further define the self-hauling provisions, and to establish recycling
requirements for large venue events.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No direct fiscal impact is expected as a result of the amendments proposed in this staff report.
It is anticipated that the increased deposit requirements would further protect the City from
potential loss due to late or non-payments, and that the electronic reporting requirements
would make administrative processing more efficient.
