To: Eric Fresch / City Attorney
From: Manuel Garcia / Generation Operations Manager'
Subject: MGS —Mechanical Commissioning
Account Number: 055-500-8200-9000
After MGS construction is completed, many systems will have to be commissioned
prior to start-up and commercial operation. Thomason Mechanical Corporation/Wood
Group and Bluewater Energy Solutions, Inc. have provided proposals for the work.
The TMC proposal is attractive for three reasons:
l . TMC has recently completed or is currently working on three Combined
Cycle facilities in California similar to the MGS, Sunrise 320mw, Elk Hills
500mw and Corona Clearwater Co -Gen 120mw.
2. TMC's use of local labor avoids mobilization, per -diem and demobilization
expenses.
3. TMC has a long track record, 23 years, of successfully meeting the City's
mechanical generation needs.
Therefore, I recommend that the City of Vernon enter into a "time and
material ... not to exceed $560,000.00" agreement with TMC to perform
mechanical commissioning of the MGS.
The enclosed package includes:
1. Proposal —TMC, $560,000.00 (Recommended)
2. Proposal — Bluewater, $887,760.00 (Not Recommended)
3. L&P Budget, 8300, 5962 Contract Services — FY0405
I am available to review this recommendation in detail.

9 1.0 Executive Summary
Bluewater Energy Solutions is pleased to provide this Execution Summary / Pricing Proposal to bring the City
of Vernon, Malburg Generating Station through the startup and commissioning phase of this important project
and into Commercial Operation.
The design, procurement, construction, commissioning and testing of any power generation facility is a very
complex undertaking involving many parties. It is essential to the project managers and project engineers
interests that an experienced Startup and Commissioning team is in place throughout the life of the project to
provide experienced oversight and coordination of all involved subcontractors, suppliers, consultants, utilities,
regulatory bodies and other parties of interest to the project. The benefits of an experienced Startup and
Commissioning team are manifest in diminished technical and commercial risks, avoidance of unplanned
schedule and budget variances, and the efficiencies borne of effective communication among all parties
throughout the performance of the project.
Bluewater Energy Solutions will assemble a team of seasoned power project professionals precisely tailored to
the project at hand and the relevant risks and opportunities presented over the course of the project. Our
flexible approach to resourcing a project applies specialists only as and when needed — saving our customer
money and ensuring the right skills are focused on current project tasks. We offer specialists in the areas of : (i)
construction, services, and supply contract negotiation and administration; (ii) project budget, schedule and cost
management; (iii) power plant systems and layout design review; (iv) construction management; (v)
commissioning and testing; (vi) operator and maintenance training; and (vii) warranty administration and
enforcement. Additionally, our Startup and Commissioning team leaders are cross -trained and experienced in
anticipating and avoiding technical, commercial and logistical difficulties peculiar to the completion of power
projects.
We recognize the City of Vernon as a leader in city and utilities management, and are respectful of the
imperative to bring the Malburg Generating Station into commercial operation while avoiding pitfalls resulting
in unnecessary cost or delay. Our experienced power industry professionals have each spent decades solving
problems and managing risks arising in power projects. Because we have "been there and done that" we
believe that our experience and education uniquely positions our team to deliver the highest quality of Startup
and Commissioning and related services to the City of Vernon in this critical project involving power
generation.
This proposal is broken it to several parts. We have provided a detailed qualifications summary of our company,
a benefits summary, a typical project team, an execution plan proposal for startup and commissioning, an
illustrative pricing section, and some attachments including company principal's resumes and estimated man
loading charts based on present project information. We have also included pricing budgets based on Bluewater
providing the complete startup and commissioning team and a budget with Bluewater incorporating the existing
City of Vernon personnel into the Bluewater startup group. Any additional manpower estimates can further be
budgeted after a detailed review of the existing project contracts, review of existing City of Vernon resources
available to support the project, and review of the detailed project schedule.
We encourage the City of Vernon to evaluate this proposal presented by Bluewater Energy Solutions. We are
confident that after reviewing the information presented, you will concur with our view that our offering is
inherently advantageous as to cost, immediate and continuing availability and flexibility of resources, and
underlying qualifications of our Startup and Commissioning team. It is with pleasure we offer our services to
you, and we look forward to discussing in additional detail how we might more specifically address your
priorities and needs in the near future.

2.0 Qualifications
Bluewater Energy Solutions has the aggregate experience, capabilities, and qualifications to fully and efficiently
support the City of Vernon in the performance of the Malburg Generating Station. Our corporate and individual
resumes show a breadth of talent and many years of experience in the Engineering Management, Project
Management, Construction Management, Commissioning, Operations and Maintenance and Training of a wide
variety of power generation facilities. Our personnel have the necessary degrees, qualifications, and licenses to

contracted scope of work. All of our personnel that we will propose for the Malburg Generation Station have
been working with one another in the power industry for many years. We have included our corporate resumes
in this plan for your information.
Bluewater Energy Solutions
Bluewater Energy Solutions specializes in power facility project execution from the completion of development
to turnover of the commercially operational facility to the Owner/Operator.
BES employs only the best of the power industry's project performers. Seasoned project engineers experienced
in systems design and layout, equipment and construction specifications, document control, and sequenced
deliveries of constructible engineering work product supporting project schedule are among the BES personnel.
Site managers experienced in coordinating the efforts of general contractors, equipment suppliers, local
authorities and multiple subcontractors, while enforcing safety and quality control programs are also among
BES personnel. Specialists in systematic construction completion, equipment start-up, plant performance
testing, and the assembly of technical documentation necessary for the operation and maintenance of the facility
are included in the BES organization. Further, BES is affiliated with an extensive network of elite specialists
and professionals in the power project community that may be enlisted as needed to address risk management,
contract review, technical due diligence and design review, contract drafting and negotiation, claims settlement,
and dispute resolution. Thus every aspect of project performance, whether routine or extraordinary, is
comfortably within BES' grasp throughout the life of a project.
We pride our selves in having exceeded our customers' expectations and hold ourselves to meeting this high
standard in every future assignment. We achieve customer satisfaction by listening to each customer's
objectives and priorities, assembling flexible strategy meeting the customer's needs, maintaining a keen watch
and control over schedule or cost slippages, providing continuous feedback and detailed reporting to our
customer's management, and managing the project in complete accord with the customer's needs, as they may
change from time to time throughout the life of the project. In a nutshell: attentiveness, competence, flexibility
and consistency are the key elements to our success and our customer's satisfaction.
3.0 Benefits of BES
Bluewater Energy Solutions offers the City of Vernon several advantages over other available options. The
City will be dealing directly with the principals of the company. We are able to implement immediately all
direction and decisions so as to avoid project delay, additional cost and unnecessary risk. Many of our
competitors do not have this flexibility and are hamstrung by multiple layers of process and approval before
acting. Our organizations will at all times be immediately available for personal meetings and direction at your
convenience, and will maximize the use of services in the course of our performance of this project.
Further advantage is evident in the fact that unlike many of our competitors, our organization does not employ
middle management staff. All our people are directly engaged in the production of project progress. Our
Proposal No. 20031008 Page 4 of 19
December 4, 2003
management personnel are hands-on workers, and each individual engaged in project work is dedicated to
progressing the project. The City of Vernon bears no burden of non -productive time spent in the administration
or management of our underlying companies.
Another particular advantage to the City of Vernon is that our companies have the financial strength to perform
and complete a project the size and scope of the Malburg Generating Station. This offers the City a distinct
advantage. Bluewater has sufficient cash, receivables, and credit available to us to ensure we are able to
perform our work without becoming insolvent. With the current economic conditions, many of the companies
in our industry risk bankruptcy and bring unforeseeable and unnecessary risk to the City.
Moreover, the City of Vernon can rely on the costs presented in our proposal. We have completed many jobs of
this nature, size, and technical complexity over the past years. We have been directly involved with
engineering, installation, commissioning and follow-up warranty work for many gas turbines packages,
including Siemen's. We understand the amount of effort required delivering top rate commissioning, training
and specialized consultation services for this project. Our rates and lump -sum pricing are structured to win this
assignment and represent an experienced estimate of the quality and scope of services required to complete the
project. We assure you that we stand by our proposed rates and prices, and pledge not to "nickel and dime" the
City of Vernon with countless change orders or lump -sum tasks.
We pride ourselves in delivering projects on time, on budget and to the satisfaction of our customers. We
understand our clients' needs and embrace the demands placed on us in successfully completing our work. We
are a seasoned project management team able to provide dedicated services closely tailored to each Customer's
needs and best interest. We understand the importance of maintaining cost and schedule targets, and are
accustomed to addressing slippages before they become irreversible. You will find that our team is comfortable
and capable in enforcing the City of Vernon project program with all third parties, and our extensive experience
in technical, commercial and logistical matters will serve to prevent, detect, and avoid or mitigate all adversities
that may arise in the course of the project.

prepared the following execution plan to outline how we would propose to successfully execute the Malburg
Generating Station. This is a preliminary plan only, as the final plan will require a detailed review of the
existing contracts and agreements in effect as well as a more detailed understanding of existing City resources
and their availability to support this project.
5.1 Preliminary Planning
This phase represents the start of startup and commissioning execution activities on the project. This
initial planning phase is critical to establish the necessary project personnel and resources required to
kick off project execution. Some of these preliminary planning activities are noted below:
• Review Power Purchase and Fuel Purchase Agreements
• Review Emissions and site requirements
• Review Preliminary Engineering
• Review/Develop Project Schedules
• Develop detailed matrix of responsibilities/identify any gaps
5.2 Startup and Commissioning Management
Our Startup and Commissioning Team recognizes the importance and magnitude of the Project to the
Customer and is ready and committed to make available all of its combined resources, expertise, and
experience to ensure that the commissioning and training of this project is successfully completed. To
that end, we have developed a Project Execution Plan, which we believe addresses the challenges and
issues of the project. We wish to highlight the following key elements of the proposed project approach.
• Assigning a highly experienced team of professionals with experience in optimizing,
engineering design, constructing and commissioning power plants.
• Formal and systematic development of scope, schedule, responsibility and quality on a
task -by -task basis to allocate responsibility and focus on the project goals.
• Aggressive review and enforcement of the project Quality Plan to ensure quality related
goals.
• Implementing proven Startup and Commissioning Management approaches to effect
proactive control of scope, quality, cost, and schedule; report on progress; identify
deviations; take corrective actions when necessary; promote communications; and
coordinate the activities of all participants on the project. Progress reporting and project
coordination will support the project reporting requirements.
Proposal No. 20031008
