12.1(a,b,c,d) A Challenge of Community and Essential Service: A Report on Action
Plan for Safe, Clean Drinking Water
Referring to a submitted report, the Commissioner of Municipal Operations updated
Council on the Action Plan for Safe, Clean Drinking Water and he responded to
questions from Council members.
On motion of Councillor Titus
Seconded by Councillor McGuire
RESOLVED that Council:
1. Highlight the investments made towards safe, clean drinking water over the past
decade and reaffirm its priority commitment to assuring that drinking water is delivered to
users in a state that is clear, colourless, odourless and free of disease causing
micro organisms (pathogens) or harmful chemicals;
INFRASTRUCTURE FUNDING AGREEMENT
2. In the interests of affordability for ratepayers and community sustainability, work to
secure the necessary multi -year funding agreement(s) with the Province of
New Brunswick and the Government of Canada for essential infrastructure
improvements (estimated at $259,450,000) as the single most critical consideration for
progress on safe, clean drinking water;
WATER TREATMENT FACILITY AT LITTLE RIVER RESERVOIR
3. As recommended through Value Engineering and follow -up analysis, adopt a one
treatment plant model for drinking water, with a 100 MLD (million litres per day)
conventional water filtration treatment facility located on City -owned land south of the
95 -402
COMMON COUNCIL/CONSEIL COMMUNAL
JULY 19, 2010 /LE 19 JUILLET 2010
Little River Reservoir; and defer a West treatment plant, but maintain Spruce Lake
facilities as an emergency potable back -up West and as an industrial supply;
4. Direct the City Solicitor to identify an appropriate process to secure access to all lands
required for the new water treatment facility at the Little River Reservoir site;
5. Direct staff to develop terms of reference on a Request for Proposals for a site
specific preliminary engineering design for a 100 MLD conventional water filtration
treatment facility near the Little River Reservoir (Site #1) and issue the Request for
Proposals in 2010 for work to be carried out and budgeted in 2011;
6. Direct staff to initiate the process for an environmental impact assessment and other
necessary approvals for the new water treatment facility at the Little River Reservoir
(Site #1) location, with the work to be undertaken and budgeted in 2011 in conjunction
with the site specific preliminary design;
WATER TREATMENT FACILITY (ESTIMATED COST)
7. Recognizing the preliminary cost estimate to construct a 100 MLD conventional water
filtration treatment facility is between $90 and $130 million, depending on timing of
construction, special site conditions and specific plant features, establish an amount of
$110 million as the estimate to be used for planning purposes;
WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS (ESTIMATED COST)
8. Recognizing that safe, clean drinking water will require extensive water system
reconfiguration and improvements, include 26 infrastructure improvement projects
(several constructed in 2010) in the scope of the Safe, Clean Drinking Water Program,
as summarized (by category) below:
a. Watershed (1 project) 3,260,000
b. Transmission System Raw Supply (2) 14,975,000
c. Transmission System Potable (11) 71,975,000
d. System Water Storage (2) 13,425,000
e. System Pumping Stations (2) 5,755,000
f. System Rehabilitation (6) 24,025,000
g. East Industrial System (2) 10,190,000
Total Water System Improvements 143,605,000;
WATER USE EFFICIENCY MEASURES (ESTIMATED COST)
9. Recognizing that a vital part of the Safe, Clean Drinking Water Program is a proactive
strategy to improve water use efficiency in Saint John, strongly advised by Value
Engineering experts and tied directly to the sizing and cost of new facilities and improved
infrastructure, include six (6) water use efficiency projects, at an estimated cost of
$28,525,000, in the scope of the Safe, Clean Drinking Water Program;
GOVERNANCE
10. After a period of reflection, further analysis and feedback, consider a public utilities
commission structure of governance for Saint John Water to provide focused
leadership of an increasingly complex water services enterprise, guide long -range
planning, support innovation and continuous improvement, pursue revenue options, and
enhance public and stakeholder dialogue; and refer the proposition to the Organizational
Realignment process currently underway to consider the legal, financial, HR and other
organizational issues that would emanate from this move;
11. Direct that a multi disciplinary staff team, including the City Solicitor, examine the
existing legislative context in light of the proposal set out herein and identify any
amendments which might be required to realize this proposal; and, additionally, that the
nature and scope of authority of a public utilities commission, together with its terms of
reference, guiding principles, stewardship responsibilities and relationship with Council,
be articulated for submission to and consideration by Council;
SERVICE, INNOVATION AND CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
12. Emphasize that a culture of innovation and continuous improvement is essential for
delivery of high quality, cost effective water services in the 21st Century; and support
team development, employee training and certification, performance management,
sustainability standards, use of technology, industry best practices, source protection
and sustainability, and asset management;
Question being taken, the motion was carried.
95 -403
COMMON COUNCIL/CONSEIL COMMUNAL
JULY 19, 2010 /LE 19 JUILLET 2010
PROGRAM DIRECTION AND OVERSIGHT
13. Authorize that a dedicated and fully resourced Program Management Team be
created to manage implementation of the Safe, Clean Drinking Water Program and the
infrastructure improvement projects flowing from it to be funded through "Capital from
Operating" provisions in the annual Saint John Water Operating Budget;
FINANCING SAFE, CLEAN DRINKING WATER
14. Acknowledge that ratepayers of the utility cannot alone afford the cost of assuring
safe, clean drinking water; that substantial funding assistance is essential, regardless of
the program delivery strategy used.
15. Adopt the "Optimized Traditional Design- Bid Build" approach recommended by the
2009 Value Engineering review, as its preferred program delivery strategy for
implementation of the Safe, Clean Drinking Water Program;
16. Highlight that program infrastructure improvements to an estimated amount of
$22,680,000 are projected to be completed this year and, as such, are not required to be
part of a future infrastructure funding agreement;
17. Based on preliminary cost estimates for a new water treatment facility, water system
infrastructure improvements and related water use efficiency measures, as outlined,
seek the necessary multi -year funding agreement(s) for essential infrastructure
improvements currently estimated at $259,450,000 to assure safe, clean drinking water
for Saint John, its homes, businesses, schools, hospitals and institutions,
industries and future generations;
18. Given the magnitude of the financial challenge associated with assuring safe, clean
drinking water, the concern for affordability and the process towards concluding the
appropriate 3 -way funding agreement(s), remain open to all funding options; and,
further, authorize a preliminary funding submission to PPP Canada for the Safe, Clean
Drinking Water Program and its full range of project components, and direct that staff
make such a submission;
ACTION PLAN FOR SAFE, CLEAN DRINKING WATER
19. Understand that assuring safe, clean drinking water represents an extraordinary
challenge for the City and its community of water users, it will test leadership, values and
dedication; and, further, encourage all stakeholders to put the most essential drinking
water needs of the community ahead of other interests;
20. Adopt the submitted 2010 report as the updated Action Plan for Safe, Clean Drinking
Water.
