The delays consist of 16 rain -out days (21 calendar days), and 14 calendar days to do additional work at the Spring Site and Tank Site. Note: 1) The additional work at the Spring Site involved some modifications to the Spring Box and the addition of concrete stairs. The Spring Box modifications were for water quality improvements, easier maintenance, and better overall appearance. The stairs were added for safety. 2) The additional work at the Tank Site involved additional earthwork and some modifications to the flow meter vault.

Page 3 of 10 5/26/09 Agenda js This is the contractor's seventh time extension request to allow the Department of Water Supply additional time to secure the necessary building permit for the project. Additional time is needed to fulfill the Department of Public Works Building Code requirements to convert the existing open garage building to office and workshop spaces under the scope of this project. Staff has evaluated this request and finds that the 90- calendar day extension is justified. Previously pproved time extensions by the Water Board: • First time extension 64- calendar days (May 11, 2007 to July 14, 2007) • Second time extension 60- calendar days (July 14, 2007 to September 12, 2007) • Third time extension 60- calendar days (September 12, 2007 to November 11, 2007) • Fourth time extension 65- calendar days (November 11, 2007 to January 15, 2008) • Fifth time extension 417 - calendar days (January 15, 2008 to March 2, 2009) with $22,348.60 contract price escalation to compensate for the time delay. • Sixth time extension 90- calendar days (March 2, 2009 to May 31, 2009) with no contract price increase.

C. JOB NO. 2004 -839, KEOPU- PU`UHONUA PRODUCTION WELL AND 1.0 MG RESERVOIR: The contractor, Isemoto Contracting Co., Ltd., requests a 37 calendar -day time extension. This request is due to the Department's request to video and subsequent cleaning and bailing of the well. (See attached request from the contractor). The drilling of the well was completed in 1993, and the well has been sitting unused until now. The video showed scaling and buildup on the casing which needed to be removed before installing the new pump and motor. Staff has reviewed the request and finds that the 37 calendar days are justified. This is the third extension request. The first time extension granted at the April 22, 2008 Water Board Meeting was for 91 calendar days from August 19, 2008, to November 18, 2008. The second time extension granted at the November 25, 2008 Water Board Meeting was for 197 calendar days from November 18, 2008, to June 3, 2009.

(See attached request letter from the contractor). The contractor was granted a contract time extension of 27 calendar days at the April 29, 2009 Water Board Meeting to extend the completion date to May 31, 2009, so that the contractor could coordinate with a previous contractor's warranty repairs to the Kona SCADA system. Page 4 of 10 5/26/09 Agenda js The contractor has been working diligently to prepare the Kona SCADA system for testing of the improvements installed with this project. However, there is a contract provision that requires 60 days of continuous operation of the system by the contractor to ensure that the system is working properly. Therefore, the contractor has requested a contract time extension of 60 days to allow for the testing of the system. This would be the eighth time extension to the contract. The previously approved time extensions are listed below: • Time Extension #1: Project extended 180 calendar days to allow for revisions to the plans and specifications. • Time Extension 42: Project extended 180 calendar days due to change in scope of work, project scheduling, and revisions to the plans. • Time Extension 43: Project extended 90 days due to unforeseen site conditions at H6lualoa Well and Reservoir site, requiring redesign. • Time Extension 44: Project extended 90 days due to valve control additions that were not shown on the plans, and the installation of an additional valve at the H6lualoa Well site, also not shown on the plans. • Time Extension 45: Project extended 180 days due to unexpected problems involving interfacing with the Kona SCADA system. • Time Extension 46: Project extended 130 days due to ongoing SCADA problems. Contractor was instructed to suspend SCADA work until upgrades to the existing SCADA system were completed. • Time Extension 47: Project extended 27 days to allow contractor to coordinate with previous contractor's warranty repairs and replace defective equipment. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Water Board grant this contract time extension of 60 calendar days to Isemoto Contracting Co., Ltd., for JOB NO. 2002 -806, Mamalahoa Highway Waterline Improvements — Phase 2.

(See attached request from the contractor). This is the third time extension request. The previously approved time extensions are listed below: • Time Extension 41: Project extended 97 calendar days to allow for additional time required to obtain the County Building permit. • Time Extension 42: Project extended 42 calendar days to allow for additional time required to return the undersized pump power cable to the Mainland and ship the required pump power cable to the project site. This is a no -cost time extension. Engineering staff has reviewed this time extension request and finds that the additional 38 calendar days are justified. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Water Board approve a contract time Page 5 of 10 5/26/09 Agenda js extension to Isemoto Contracting Co., Ltd. of 38 calendar days from May 22, 2009 to June 29, 2009, for JOB No. 2002 -809, PA14ALA PRODUCTION WELL AND SUPPORTING FACILITIES.

W. Glover, Ltd. Yamada & Sons, Inc. Jas. W. Glover, Ltd. Jas. W. Glover, Ltd. Grace Pacific Corporation The contract period shall be from July 1, 2009, to June 30, 2010. D. JOB NO. 2008 -947, AGREEMENT FOR SALE AND INSTALLATION OF AUTOMATIC METER READING SYSTEM AND REPLACEMENT OF METERS, CHANGE ORDER NO. 1 AND REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDS: This request for additional funds, pursuant to Article V, Terms and Conditions for Sale of Neptune products, allows the Department to purchase additional meters by a maximum of ten percent. The original contract was to purchase and install 5,000 meters and therefore, we are requesting to purchase an additional 500 meters through this contract. This additional purchase is conditional on the unit price remaining the same, and that the Manager determines that the purchase will be more economical than awarding another contract. The additional meters are needed because currently, the Department does not have spare AMR meters for replacements or new installations that would fall within existing AMR meter routes. Installing non -AMR meters within AMR routes would be inefficient and time consuming compared to having the entire route serviced by AMR meters. The original amount approved by the Board in the FY 09 CIP Budget was $2,000,000.00. Current cost of contract $ 1,608,600.00 Cost for an additional 500 AMR meters $ 111.800.00 Total Cost $1,720,400.00 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board approve this request for an additional $111,800.00 to be added to the contract funding, for a total of $1,720,400.00 and that either the Chairperson or the Vice - Chairperson be authorized to sign the change order for said services subject to the approval of Corporation Counsel. E. POWER COST ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE: Page 8 of 10 The Department's new power cost charge (PCC) formula allows updating of the PCC as often as every two months. The PCC was changed to its present $2.38 per 1,000 gallons effective January 1, 2009, and has allowed the Department to recover 93% of the actual power costs paid to HELCO since July 2008. As the Department's power costs have been decreasing, it is appropriate to lower the PCC to more closely reflect the Department's actual power costs. As of April 2009, the PCC computes to $2.11 per 1,000 gallons ($16,184,159 / 7,652,441 gallons).

The typical family of 4 consuming 24,000 gallons over a 2 -month period, will see their water bill drop $6.48 from $110.32 to $103.84 as a result of the lower PCC. PCC (a-) PCC $2.38 $2.11 Consumption $29.20 $29.20 Standby $24.00 $24.00 Power Cost Charge $57.12 $50.64 Total Water Bill $110.32 $103.84 F.
