PO Box 111008 Anchorage AK 99511-1008 Re:Clarification to Request for Proposal -Healy to Fairbanks 230 kV Intertie Substations and Reactive Compensation In the original RFP,the following statement was made: "Please note that complete functional designs are requested,as performance type specifications will not be acceptable for the substation portion of this work." Several questions have been asked about the intent of this phrase. As clarification,material and equipment suppliers can be provided performance or conceptual specifications and,as part of their work,do design and provide shop drawings for review under this RFP.The construction contractor will not be required to engage an engineer for design and submit these designs to the Engineer for verification.Examples of acceptable performance specification production by material suppliers would be wiring diagrams by relay and panel board supplier,structural strength calculations, connection details,and material sizing for substation structures, etc.Examples of unacceptable performance specification use would be a specification calling for the construction contractor to hire an engineer to provide foundation design,lighting layout, structure requirements,ground grid design,etc.Simply put,the contractor will not be expected to provide any engineering,but will be required to provide procurement and labor to install equipment and materials which have been specified and reviewed by the engineer. One additional clarification,the Design Manual for Reactive Compensation,Section 4.4,will not be required,as the reactive compensation is anticipated to be provided as turnkey with a performance specification. Please incorporate the information in this letter into your proposals.Please call if you have any questions on this letter orotherportionsoftheRequestforProposals.

The attached evaluation form was created for the four proposals received to allow for a fair comparison based on experience, ability to perform,man-hour effort,and price.Of all the proposals,Power Engineers was felt to provide the best value, local experience,and realistic view of the tasks to be performed. Stanley Engineers local experience consisted of the Healy Substation in 1967,which was not felt to be current enough.There were some discrepancy in the CM /Inspection portion of the proposals due to a range of seven to 24 week constructionschedules.To even the evaluation the CM /Inspection was removed.R W Beck was very high when compared on desigi costs alone.Power Engineers was felt to have provided a realistic design price and a good balance between design and C™/Inspection. GOLDEN VALLEY ELECTRIC ASSOCIATION INC. Tom Stahr Page 2 February 23,1994 The selection of Power Engineers was primarily based on the team's superior value demonstrated by their arctic experience in substation design and construction management of successful projects,local Alaskan design team with the ability to provide timely services,and realistic price.The following shows the ranking for design and construction management based on price alone: Proposer Design CM/Inspection Total Stanley Engrs.1 2 1 R W Beck/D&L 3 1 2 Power Engrs 2 3 3 Stone &Webster 4 4 4 Would you please review the evaluation forms.The Power Engineers proposal is attached for your review.If you need additional information or would like to review any other proposals,please call me at (907)451-5647.The design firms are anxiously awaiting announcement of our selection and notice to proceed to allow for commencement of work.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Project includes complete detailed design of two substations and turnkey specifications for associated Reactive Compensation systems.The northern terminal of the new Healy-Fairbanks Intertie near Fairbanks will be a new 138-69 kV station with the reactive compensation on the 138 kV portion.The Igloo Substation will be located on the existing Anchorage-Fairbanks Intertie south of Cantwell and will be a new 138 kV station,also with reactive compensation facilities.In addition,turnkey specifications for modifications to or replacement of the controls on the existing SVS systems at Gold Hill and Healy will be required. The southern terminal of the line will be at the existing Healy Substation.It is assumed that required modifications to the Healy Substation will be designed by others. POWER TEAM POWER has assembled an impressive team of individuals covering all disciplines required for successful completion of the project.Specific areas o! expertise include: COTOWER e Substation Design e Geotechnical Engineering (Arctic Experience) e SVS and Applied Technologies e Cold Weather Experience ¢Mechanical,Electrical and Seismic Engineering ¢Relay and Control Experience Our key personnel proposed to perform this important and complex project have many years of applicable experience,as described further in the Project Team section.This experience offers a distinct advantage when it comes to completing the project on time and within budget. POWER also is making a corporate commitment to this project by assigning Randy Pollock,P.E.,as the project principal to provide oversight and periodic involvement.In his 20-plus years in the utility business Randy has been involved in a variety of challenging and difficult projects.Randy would conduct routine conference calls with GVEA personnel and with POWER's project and engineering managers,Stan Sostrom and Tim Ostermeier,P.E.His involvement would ensure that the project stays on track and remains a very high priority within POWER's organization. Stan,the proposed Project Manager,permanently resides in Alaska and would have overall project responsibility.Tim,the proposed Engineering Manager, resides in Idaho and would direct day-to-day engineering efforts,as coordinated with Stan,from our Hailey office.Both of these individuals have years of direct applicable experience in both the substation arena and in the required specialty fields of SVS and related technologies.They have worked together on numerous projects over the past five years. The proposed SVS and Protective Relay project engineer,Don Angell,P.E.,is recognized in Alaska utility circles as one of the industry's most knowledgeable and capable systems studies engineers,as can be confirmed by many utilityengineersandmanagers.Don would be supported by Electrical Power Consultants (EPC),of Schenectady,NY.EPC's engineers have provided similar systems studies for reactive compensation installations throughout the world. PPQWER/ In addition,POWER would provide geotechnical engineering under the direction of Larry Hinton,P.E.,who would be complemented by our subconsultant Larry Hinzman,Ph.D.,an internationally recognized arctic soils specialist located in Fairbanks.POWER would subcontract the site soil borings to a local drilling company familiar with utility installations. Other required engineering disciplines,including civil,mechanical and architectural,would be directly supported by full-time employees of POWER in our Idaho office.Each of the responsible leads is registered and experienced in providing service for substations,SVS-type installations and related facilities throughout the United States. ) Complete and detailed information of applicable experience for each of the team's key individuals is provided in the Project Team section of this document. PROJECT EXPERIENCE POWER has been in existence since 1976,and in that time has become one of the recognized leaders in the design of utility systems.POWER started out by providing design services to small,local REAs.Since then,we have expanded our service territory to include all areas of the United States,particularly Alaska. POWER has provided substation,SVS and SVS-related technologies designs for organizations such as Bonneville Power Administration,Los Angeles Dept.of Water and Power (via subcontract with Siemens),EPRI,and General Electric for numerous projects ranging from 69kV through 500kV.In 1993 POWER completed the SOOkV Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC)Bank Project at BPA's Slatt Substation.This project was a demonstration of technology effort by EPRI and GE to provide a fully functional and adjustable EHV series compensation device to enhance system stability and provide for increased real power flow on a major transmission path.POWER provided preliminary engineering,complete detailed design,construction contractor selection,contract administration,construction management and testing support for this fast-track project. ezowen! Other major projects recently completed include detailed design of eight SOOkV series capacitor banks for BPA totaling 3.7GVAR,and four 5QQOkV series capacitor banks for Western Area Power Administration totaling 2.3GVAR. Both of these large projects were to support construction of the 3rd AC Intertie project between Oregon and California. POWER has continuously provided substation designs from its inception and now boasts one of the best teams in the industry.As shown in the experience matrix included in Section VI,Qualifications and Experience,POWER has provided all types of substation designs from S5kV through SOOkV for a wide variety of clients.We routinely provide design services for simple one-bay additions up to complete new stations,depending on the project's requirements. POWER brings depth and talent to GVEA's project in all required areas including site/civil,civil/structural,geotechnical,physical layout,control and relaying,communications,SCADA,mechanical (HVAC),and architectural engineering.This depth gives us the ability to provide a truly independent internal quality check of our designs. PROJECT MANAGEMENT Effective Project Management is a crucial element of the Project Approach. POWER's proven Project Management (PM)System will be utilized for GVEA's project.Our computerized PM System is based on defining the distinct tasks required for project completion.These tasks are then scheduled, budgeted,tracked,and managed.The result is accurate project information, rapidly obtained,enabling GVEA and POWER personnel to make decisions with confidence. WORK PLAN POWER's Work Plan breaks down the project into distinct tasks and subtasks, and defines POWER's technical approach in specific detail.The tasks to be performed for the entire project,from project development through C@ZIWER construction,are included.The Work Plan clearly demonstrates how carefully POWER has thought about the project,and shows our method of performing the required tasks.Please see Section II,Work Plan,for our complete technical approach to the Healy-Fairbanks 230kV Intertie Substations and Reactive Compensation Project. In the preparation of the Work Plan,POWER has made several critical assumptions.POWER's budget and schedule are based on these assumptions.We have outlined several of these assumptions below for your convenience. The sample specifications for the Kenai SVS and/or EPRI/HECO Battery Energy Storage installations will be made available to POWER in an acceptable electronic format and may be used as a basis for the preparation of turnkey specifications for this contract.The submittal review portion of the reactive compensation stations will be limited to review of station physical drawings,such as station layout and elevations,grounding and fencing,and site preparation,interconnection wiring diagrams,manufacturer's submittals for major equipment such and transformer and circuit breakers,and the control building.No time has been included to review submittals for control logic or specialty equipment. POWER has included time for two construction inspectors,one of which will act as construction manager.We have assumed that the SVS construction will not run concurrently with the substation construction.The estimates contained in the budget proposal are based on the project schedule. COMPUTER UTILIZATION POWER utilizes numerous software programs to assist the team members in their design efforts.The software we anticipate using for this project is listed below. C2IMER Ground Cale -In-house program to establish grid requirements Bus Calc -In-house program to verify bus/bus support strengths Enercalc -Foundation design program In-Roads -Cut and fill optimization EE Schematic -Schematic design development EE Wiring and -Automated panel wiring,in conjunction Panel Design with EE Schematic Model Draft -Physical station design Symphony -Material lists,structure lists QUALITY CONTROL AND ASSURANCE POWER's commitment to performing quality work is backed by a program of continuous training.POWER provides for ongoing training both in house and at off-site seminars such as the Western Protective Relay Conference.In fact, we have provided instructors at this particular seminar in each of the last three years. Our in-house training consists of classes taught by our senior engineers to our staff engineers and designers.In the substation group,for example,we cover a special topic in detail each week.Past topics have included direct stroke lightning protection,step distance relaying and bus layout arrangements,among others.This continuous training demonstrates our commitment to excellence. The result is a highly skilled and knowledgeable staff that brings up-to-date technical know-how to clients'projects. POWER provides quality control and assurance for each of our projects by affording an independent review by one of our senior engineers at critical stages of the project,as determined by the Project Manager.This independent review builds quality into our product from the start,not correcting oversights in the field where they are both time consuming and costly._7 ODIWER 'POWER'S APPROACH WORKS An effective project approach goes a long way toward project success.That is why we have taken the time to prepare a thorough and well-thought-out response to GVEA's Request for Proposal.As you review this proposal,that thoroughness will be evident,from the work plan to the schedule to the selection of a project team and subconsultants.Should we be awarded the contract,that same degree of careful planning and attention to detail will characterize our work throughout the life of the project.POWER's approach works -our past performance proves it! OLIWER£As ll.WORK PLAN INTRODUCTION This section contains POWER's proposed Work Plan for the execution of the Project.POWER's Work Plan is composed of: e Task Outline e Task Sequence Diagram e Task Descriptions The Task Outline is a listing of all tasks and subtasks for this project.The Task Sequence Diagram shows how the various tasks are designed to interact. Seventeen (17)tasks,including Task 0 Project Management,are required to complete the Project. Following the Task Sequence Diagram are detailed Task Descriptions that define the activities or events that POWER must perform or have accomplished to complete this project efficiently The Task Descriptions (as well as the Project Schedule,Budget,and Status Reports)are numerically coded to facilitate reference and tracking. Note that primary responsibility tor the completion of each task is shown after the task heading.Occasionally,responsibility will be shared,and this will be noted by GVEA/POWER.| CLIMER WORK PLAN BENEFITS POWER's Work Plan offers several benefits to GVEA.Some of the key benefits are listed below: e Because the Work Plan clearly describes what we expect each task will cover, it eliminates any misunderstandings or misinterpretations of what a task will entail. e Because of the Work Plan's great degree of detail,GVEA can easily compare POWER's comprehension of the project with other plans.This comparison clearly points out those plans that have not addressed key concerns. e By preparing the Work Plan,POWER has become familiar with the Project.

The proposed Project Schedule as well as the Task Outline,Task Sequence Diagram,Task Descriptions,Budget,and Status Reports are numerically coded to facilitate reference and tracking. In the event that changes in the project scope occur,or schedule adjustments are agreed upon by GVEA and POWER personnel,schedule revisions are made quickly and easily on our CADD workstation systems.Copies of the revised schedule would then be distributed to GVEA and POWER personnel. The proposed schedule assumes that POWER would receive a Notice to Proceed from GVEA during the week of March 7,1994, The proposed Project Schedule may ditfer slightly from the GVEA Schedule which was a part of the RFP.However,the schedule was prepared with the GVEA completion dates clearly in mind =POWER is confident that the required completion and in-service dates can be met using the proposed schedule. @DQWER GOLDEN VALLEY ELECTRIC ASSOCIATION HEALY TO FAIRBANKS 230 KV INTERTIE SUBSTATIONS AND REACTIVE COMPENSATION iO [Name waTageTu Lom [sa Tg Lem Toa Tus Toes [ome Tra Tne Doe [ng Tom TugLemLoTens Lo be Do Tw Le1PROJECTMANAGEMENTee2©Project Management MMMM 3 SUBSTATION DESIGN } 4 1 Substation Initiation ty Ss 2 Substation Equipment Specifications YUU), 6 3 Substation Layout Yh; 7 4 Substation Control &Relaying WIE 8 5 SVS and Substation Control»t Building | 9 6 Substation Review anaes 10 7 Commissioning (Optional) VW 8 Reactive Compensation Eagineenng 12 9 SVS Control Modifications: 13 PROCUREMENT \2 14 10 Procurement Initiation LY 15 11 Vendor Selection ; 16 12 Expediting and Receiving VWHQNYWOAWwr(Mau 7 CONSTRUCTION (SUBSTATION), /) 18 13.CM Initiation : 19 14 Contractor Selection 20 15 Mobilization W43 21 16 Construction Management 22 \es |)CONSTRUCTION (REACTIVE COMPENSATION} IV.BUDGET INTRODUCTION The following is a proposed budget only.It is subject to GVEA review,revision, and approval in any part and in its entirety.It is based on POWER's understanding of the scope of work as defined by GVEA and our Work Plan. BUDGETING PROCESS The proposed budget included in this section is a product of POWER's integrated PM System.Members of POWER's project team are responsible for their respective segments of the Work Plan,Schedule,and Budget,under the overall responsibility and coordination of the Project Manager. In the budgeting process,the project team uses the detailed task descriptions from the Work Plan,with the Schedule,to estimate the labor and expense requirements for each task. Labor for each subtask is estimated in man-hours for eight (8)job classifications. Expenses for each subtask are estimated in the applicable unit for ten (10)expense classifications.The man-hour and expense estimates are entered in the computer to derive labor and expense costs through the application of the current Schedule of Charges. The Project Schedule is also used as a guideline for the distribution of the manpower and expense requirements The members of the project team enter the aoe ee ee wie4 OLIWER start-week and number of weeks,for each man-hour and expense classification for their respective areas of responsibility. TRACKING /REPORTING POWER budgets and tracks the project internally at the subtask level.The man- hours and/or expenses for each subtask are accumulated to make up the task costs and are reported to GVEA at the task level.The budgets for each subtask and resultant task are POWER's best estimate of the man-hours and/or expenses necessary to accomplish the work defined in the Project Work Plan. During the course of the project,it is realistic to expect that a particular task or tasks will require more man-hours and/or expenses than budgeted,while other tasks will be accomplished with fewer man-hours and/or lower expenses than anticipated.Although an individual task may exceed the budget,POWER considers the total estimated budget for this project to be a not-to-exceed ceiling. POWER will not exceed this budget ceiling unless a written change in the Work Plan and a budget revision are approved by GVEA. To further aid POWER and GVEA in project tracking,POWER will produce monthly status reports,made available to GVEA when invoicing occurs.The report identifies labor hours,labor cost,and expenses for each subtask,totaled to the task level.Moreover,the report displays the original budget compared to actual amounts for the current month and for the project to date.Remaining budgeted amounts and percent complete are also displayed.If requested by GVEA,a different format,level of detail,or reporting frequency may be accommodated in these reports.However,additional requirements beyond our standard status reporting procedures would be an additional charge to GVEA. INVOICING BASIS GVEA will be invoiced only for the labor and expenses incurred by POWER to accomplish the specific tasks identitied POWER's proposed Project Budget is based on monthly progress payments For work on continuing projects that CDIWER) exceed one year,the budget will be revised at the beginning of each year to reflect the revised Schedule of Charges effective January 1 of each year. Invoices will be submitted each calendar month for the work accomplished during that period,and will be due and payable when issued.All accounts not paid within thirty (30)days from the invoice date will bear a service charge of one percent (1%)per month for each month the invoice is unpaid. POWER's invoice format separates labor and expense costs.Labor charges are itemized to include the following information:employee name,hours,billing rate, and amount.Reimbursable expenses include expense description and amount. If requested by GVEA,additional administrative support work such as a different invoicing format,copies of POWER employee expense reports,or additional information can be accommodated at additional cost.POWER also offers its invoicing records to GVEA for review/audit purposes in POWER's offices during normal business hours. No premium is charged for overtime work.Personnel with specialized experience are employed or retained by POWER.Charges for these specialists have been incorporated in the proposed Project Budget on an individual basis depending on the assignment.)Professional time for depositions and testimony is charged at one and one-half(1 1/2)times the rate for services,full-day minimums apply. POWER's proposed Project Budget is based on reimbursement by GVEA of all - expenses and/or services such as subcontractors,test equipment,photography, transportation,vehicles,shipping,computer services,lodging,meals,reproduction, long-distance telephone,telecopier.express mail,courier/delivery service,special equipment,and supplies not normally provided at cost plus ten percent (+10%). @LQMERBO120183GVEA(2/18/94)4 IV-3 General Engineering Cost Breakdown by Design Task and Links Project:Healy to Fairbanks 230 kV Intertie Substation and Reactive Compensation Task #Link # 1.0 PROJECT ADMINISTRATION Fbks 360 MH $25,020 Igloo 240 MH $16,680 2.0 DATA REVIEW Fbks 65 MH $5,295 Igloo 43 MH $3,517 3.0 DESIGN CRITERIA Fbks 588 MH $34,548 Igloo 395 MH $23,282 4.0 DESIGN MANUAL Fbks 457 MH $26,589 Igloo 307 MH $17,941 5.0 SOIL INVESTIGATION Fbks 152 MH $11,456 « igloo 100 MH $7,548 6.0 SURVEY /ACCESS Fbks 13 MH $1,209 Igloo 9 MH $837 7.0 CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS /DETAILS Fbks 824 MH $48,645 igloo 547 MH $32,286 8.0 MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS /LIST Fbks 337 MH $20,608 Igloo 225 MH $13,788 9.0 BID DOCUMENTS Fbks 249 MH $15,913 igloo 171 MH $10,887 10.0 BID EVALUATION Fbks 12 MH $665 Igloo 8 MH $539 11.0 ENGINEERING DURING CONSTRUCTION Fbks 169 MH $12,487 Igloo 114 MH $8,422 12.0 RECORD DRAWINGS /CLOSEOUT Fbks 94 MH $5,582 igloo .63 MH $3,739 13.0 REACTIVE COMPENSATION Fbks °253 MH $17,727 Igloo 169 MH $11,831 General Engineering Cost Breakdown by Design Talk and Links Project:Healy to Fairbanks 230 kV Intertie Substation and Reactive Compensation Task #Link # 14.0 EXISTING STATIC VAR SYSTEM CONTROLS Gold Hill 140 MH $10,140 Healy 140 MH $10,140 Teeland 0 MH $0 15.0 PROJECT /CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT Fbks 257 MH $14,895 Igloo 257 MH $14,895 16.0 CONSTRUCTION INSPECTION Fbks 1,658 MH $96,978 Igloo 1,658 MH $96,978 0.0 EXPENSES -DESIGN Fbks 44,233 $44,233 Igloo 29,488 $29,488 0.0 EXPENSES -CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT Fbks 39,350 $39,350 Igloo 39,350 $39,350 TOTAL LABOR AND EXPENSES I $773,488 || CONTINGENCY 10.00%$77,349 GRAND TOTAL NTE.====>|$850,837 || Note:Subcontractor labor is shown as expenses.

ODIWER) Vi.QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE A.STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS POWER has used the latest innovative design methods,coupled with practical knowledge resulting from years of experience,to complete more than 200 notably successful substation,switchstation and industrial power supply projects ranging from 2.4kV through S5OOkV. Our design services include: e Data Acquisition ¢Construction Specifications e Design Criteria «Material List e Alternative Analyses ¢Bidding Units e Design Calculations ¢Switchboards e Cable and Conduit ¢Project Design Manuals e Station Layout *Detailed Engineering e Structures ¢Geotechnical e Foundations e Surveying e Grounding «Protective Relaying e Site/Civil Work *SCADA e Equipment Specifications ¢Communications e Relay Settings In addition,POWER services re.atedi 'co substation engineering include cost estimating,site and access fui cesizn,oil spill containment designs, construction management and inspec'.on.testing and energization,audible noise Studies,system monitoring,and cevecloping station operation manuals and providing personnel training. CLQWER SUBSTATION DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS Substation design was a key to POWER's original business success,and it remains one of POWER's primary specialty areas.Our designs and services can support any substation need:whether it is a new facility or an upgrade; simple breaker and transformer changeout;or the addition of distribution automation,SCADA or other communication devices.Throughout the industry,we are known as innovators who provide engineering services of exceptional quality. SYSTEM RELIABILITY Natural disasters are often the most stringent test of power system reliability. The POWER-designed Spar Canyon 230kV Switching Station was located only a few miles from the epicenter of an earthquake near Challis,Idaho.Despite the fact the quake measured 7.3 on the Richter Scale,electrical service was interrupted for only 60 seconds while station equipment automatically reset. Subsequent inspection revealed only minor damage -a number of bus fittings had broken.In our business,understanding quality is essential.In a POWER- designed substation,reliability has been considered at every level. INNOVATION POWER recently took part in design of one of the Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS)projects for Electrical Power Research Institute (EPRI)and Bonneville Power Administration,making a technological first with thyristor- controlled series capacitors (TCSC)at a 500kV station.The unique aspect of this project involves the use of intelligent valves that allow any of six groups of capacitors to be very quickly switched,thus optimizing real power flows.With the improved power flow,utilities can better use existing transmission lines, thereby eliminating or postponing the need for new transmission lines. TEAMWORK POWER projects are conducted by a team that engineers all phases of a project -from the owner's Notice to Proceed through completion.POWER substation P DOWER) Ran RR me et \AL.D engineering personnel are committed to our client's projects -even after detailed design is completed.Construction progress is constantly monitored to obtain the feedback necessary for confirmation or revision of designs. ADVANCED COMPUTER RESOURCES POWER operates an extensive networked CADD system consisting of Intergraph Interpro 2000 Series workstations,PC-based Intergraph Microstation and AutoCAD workstations.This equipment allows us to respond to virtually any client's CADD requirements for substation design. POWER's investment in automated design tools such as the powerful Intergraph software packages InSite/InRoads,EE Schematic,WPD and MICAS Plus provide us with the technological basis for our approach to substation projects. This package of software gives our engineers the ability to automate and optimize our substation designs from site preparation through final wiring.The design products are cost-effective and result in far fewer as-builts and field changes than occur with conventional design practices.This results in a lower project installed cost and savings for our clients. Substation engineering personnel also operate a network of micro-computers to use a host of programs written in-house to assist in the design of station components.For example,"Rigid Bus"assesses wind and ice loading,bus spacing,and fault current levels to ensure that bus expansion,deflection and strength are within appropriate design limits.In addition,"Cantilever Retaining Wall,""Cut and Fill"and "Foundation Analysis"are used to assess station design features. B.PROJECT EXPERIENCE Whether the need is for the planning,permitting,design,testing and energization,or construction management of substation facilities,POWER draws upon our wealth of experience to meet that need.We have successtulls completed projects throughout the United States in diverse climates and conditions -from Alaska to southern California,and from Hawaii to Vermont BLOWER/ POWER's experience includes conceptual design,design and specification of high voltage equipment,controls and protective relaying,buildings,system studies,communication and SCADA systems,as well as general yard design and construction management.This experience spans many years and includes stations ranging from 2.4kV to S500kV. This section illustrates the scope and depth of POWER's experience in providing consulting and design and related services for substation projects. COLD WEATHER EXPERIENCE POWER's personnel are experienced in the design of substations in cold climates and difficult terrain and conditions.Much of our cold weather design experience comes from designing substations in mountainous terrain in Idaho, Wyoming,and Northern Vermont.We have also completed several projects in the arctic regions of Alaska.Substations designed in the high reaches of the Rocky Mountains often have similar temperature design criteria as that used in the interior of Alaska.The difficulty of designing for extreme temperatures is compounded in mountains by difficult terrain,severe ice,snow,and wind loading.POWER will bring this experience and commitment to the proposed project team. Following is a partial list of POWER's cold weather projects.These projects are described in detail in the Project Briefs included at the end of this section.

The project was designed and constr..°:3 in two phases.Phase |consisted cf °" design of a three-breaker ring bus sc. to provide protection and switching '-' existing 138-230kV,AUD.4 autotransformer,a 230kV line and a ° line to be converted to 230kV. Phase Il design involved the addition of a second 230kV,300-MVA autotransformer bay and three more circuit breakers to convert the station to a breaker-and-a-half scheme.Design provision was also made for addition of a future 230kV line terminal. Severe space constraints in the heavily forested project area dictated siting of the 380'x 270°station addition on an active streambed.This constraint,as well as the station's location in the subarctic zone in a Zone 4 seismic area,required that extensive geotechnical investigation be conducted and elaborate site preparation be performed during Phase |,including stripping of the overburden and use of non-frost-susceptible fill material.In addition,two 60"x 46"flat-bottomed galvanized steel culverts were specified to channel!the stream under the north end of the yard and a French drain system was designed to lower the water table.A 10-foot step was incorporated in the station grade to minimize the amount of fill required. The high water table at the site and susceptibility to frost heaving necessitated special foundation considerations. Shallow-bottomed spread footings weredesignedtoavoidhighwater-table problems,while buried styrofoam insulating board was specified to prevent frost penetration.To protect the nearby stream from accidental oil contamination,POWER designed a_sophisticated oil -spill containment system that features concrete-walled catch basins with impermeable membrane liners and imbiber bead drains around all oil containing equipment. Electrical design for Phase |of the Beluga 230kV Station was complex.It involved extensive relaying and control interface with existing station facilities to provide integrated protection coordination.The state-of-the-art protection scheme designed by POWER utilizes differential and sudden pressure protective relaying for the transformer,bus differential,breaker failure relaying for each circuit breaker,and distance relaying for the lines. Design interface was also required for the Station's new microwave-operated SCADA system.POWER was responsible for placement of the remote terminal unit in the control house and schematic wiring.Other electrical design tasks included a control house annunciator with both local and remote alarms. Structurally,the new station was designed to withstand Zone 4 seismic loads and features tubular steel station structures designed for both strength and aesthetics. Over 300,000 Ibs.of steel was required for the sturdy,yet architecturally streamlined, structures. Additional POWER responsibilities on the estimated $5.8 million project included design of the line reroutes necessary for proper Station-line interface,survey supervision and limited contract administration,and construction monitoring services.

Design of the facility,located in Alaska's subarctic zone, presented several engineering challenges.The most significant of these involved site preparation.Sited out of necessity on an old riverbed with a shallow water table, the station would have been extremely susceptible to_”frost heaving'during:thé:frigid Alaskan winters.Toeliminatethispotentiallyseriousproblem,POWER civil engineering personnel specified excavation of the entire substation site,placement of a special fabric lining under foundations,and backfill with non-frost-susceptible fill material.In addition,special spread-footing foundations with frost barriers were designed to neutralize the site's eKaef 2 wt &IY.errs esGI": eT mont ane --=TL.ISi76"ee zy #ora te ."'Ne ran eee iv |"ate serous»nae NL RInI TE ae -=ee nner te wesa7=3]SSEeymeereneewweone 0 ott @)er:*ah,aR rn eeTeesrooeennenespre-Eee 2 wsttepeel° fETat TT - ;RAL phe "po be ab ap -2 nee Qe 4 wee "NORTH POLE REFININGwen.|North Pole.Aleske"eam en?jes TEDonteryCmirnansSlOresOarERD, Pace tte Owen seca 8SsiOkbuhaMina high water table and severe winter freezing problems.Due to its proximity to the existing river,the new facility also required an oil spill containment pit around each of the transformers. The subarctic climate imposed other special design considerations.Winter temperatures in the -40°F to -70°F range required specification of two oil heaters per transformer,extra equipment insulation and placement of the 13.8kV metal-clad switchgear inside the station's super-insulated control building. Interface with other plant electrical systems provided additional engineering challenges.Special relaying arrangements were designed to protect the station and utility supply against reverse power flow from in-plant generation,while two capacitor banks were specified to control VAR-induced voltage fluctuations on the feeders caused by the plant generation. Complex design interface was also required with the local utility's SCADA system and the main plant Foxboro Spec- trum Coordinated Control System.POWER coordinated its design effort closely with the local utility,MAPCO and the other electrical contractors on the project to ensure proper systems interface. Additional POWER responsibilities with regard to the main plant substation included design of the 69kV transmission source loop,materia!procurement, construction inspection,and testing and ener- gization.Designed and constructed on a fast-track schedule,the modern facility was energized on time.

The system protects Chugach's facilities in southcentral Alaska.These facilities include 10 stations and interconnecting 230kV,138k,and 115kV transmission lines.Many of Chugach's stations employ Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL)121 and 121G microprocessor- based relays. POWER enhanced the fault report..g capabilities of these relays by designing a s.rgie channel that triggers each station's SEL relays This action occurs at the time of any transfer *"0 action at any station in the Chugach system To house the new transfer tripping equiomen' two stations required expansion of their contro: ouildings.POWER provided designs to exoard these buildings. CRIWER The installation of the transfer tripping scheme required communication of tripping tones, report initiation tones,and accurate timing signals.POWER designed a communication system that integrates with the existing Chugach microwave system providing the necessary tones and timing signals.The tone circuits incorporate both wire circuits and fiber optic circuits.Tone transmission time is critical for the transfer tripping and report initiation scheme.The design incorporates techniques for minimizing transmission time. Accurate timing for the transfer tripping scheme incorporates GOES satellite receivers in the system.These satellite receivers provide IRIG-B timing information,which is accurate to within one millisecond. For this project,POWER provided the conceptual design,equipment specifications,installation specifications and construction inspection.

The existing yard has been extended to accommo:° date a new A-frame structure,required bus sup- ports,500kV insulated equipment platform,new control building and the TCSC cooling system.GE contracted POWER to provide design and construc- tion management services required for the project. The overall project consists of the 500kV TCSC bank,transmission line retermination,500kV yard extension,piping and cable raceway systems,TCSC contro!building,valve cooling system,associated control system and associated station service up- grades. S00kV TCSC Bank POWER conducted analyses and all design for the TCSC bank,which involves detailed platforms.The TCSC bank consists of three insulated aluminum platforms (one per phase).The platforms are sup- ported by reinforced concrete foundations,porcelain post-type insulators,and polymer-type strain insula- tors.The porcelain insulators are configured in a vertical onentation and the polymer insulators in a diagonal orientation to support the platform. For each platform,the aluminum supporting struc- tures require 16 porcelain (four stack)units and 32 polymer types.In addition to supporting insulators, valve cooling on each platform requires six insulated (porcelain-type)insulators to supply the coolant. Each platform has four polymer-type fiber optic columns to facilitate the routing ofthe fiber from optic cabling on the platform to the control building.

Piping and Cable Raceway POWER designed extensive trench systems to ac- commodate the valve cooling piping andthe control' fiber optic trench system,using both cast-in-place and precasttrenches.The trench system emanates from the TCSC control building to the platform and disconnect switch area,to the heat exchangers,and to the existing BPA trench system.Cast-in-piace trenches were also designed for the new control building. Valve Cooling System An integral part of this project is the valve cooling system.The cooling system is required to dissipate the high current switching energy generated with the electronic valves.The system involves a GE-fur- nished motor control center,pump skid,six heat exchangers,stainless steelandABS-typepicre.m..- folds,as well as valves and elbows. Contro!System POWER assisted BPA and GE in the design of the indoor contro!cubicles that comprise the contrsl system for the TCSC.This involved associated isolating and bypass equipment and 6&PA interface requirements. This first-of-its kind station could change the ap- proach utilities take in expanding their systems. With the improved power flow and enhanced system stability enjoyed from this technology,utilities can better use existing transmission lines,thereby elimi- nating or postponing the need for new lines.While these types of new stations will be expensive,they are substantially less expensive than building new transmission lines.The FACTS team anticipates that utilities will experience a rapid payback with this new type of station.

POWER Engineers designed the Valley 161x115-24 3«v Substation located at the mine site.The loop-fed station supplies 24.9/14.4kV to the slurry pumping station. excavation shovels and drills,and the mill via 'rree underground feeders,with provision for a fourth 'eecer The remote mine-site facility proved to be one of the more challenging POWER station design projects.Lack of available flat space at the mine necessitated evaluation of several siting alternatives.Excavation of a narrow bench near the mill site was ultimately required to provide a suitable site.To minimize station space requirements, POWER design personnel placed the line tap parallel to the station bus,a very compact physical configuration. High altitude and severe winter conditions called for additional special design considerations.Insulation coordination calculations specified use of 230kV insula- tion on the high side of the substation to minimize increased flashover potential at the 7500-foot elevation, while transformer specifications were prepared for winter temperatures as low as -65°F.Aiso,a 10-foot-high station fence with Dutch gate was installed due to nistorically deep winter snowpack and extensive snowdritting in the project area. erDOUel) Other design features included an oil spill containment ditch and revenue-class metering.The mine's location in an environmentally sensitive national forest required provision be made for oil spillage;while revenue-class metering was installed on the dedicated feeders to provide LVP&L with accurate readings for billing purposes.Designed for eventual conversion to 161kV,the Valley Substation was initially energized at 115kvV. Additional project services provided by POWER included system studies,preliminary engineering,survey, transmission line design and construction management.

Sited by the client in a constricted area of the mine at an elevation of over 7500 feet,the Cyprus Substation required several special design considerations.The relatively smal!(125°x 200')area allocated for the sub- Station dictated minimum separation of certain station components,as well as closely spaced station fayout.Dust contamination and the high altitude necessitated specification of a higher basic insulation level (BIL)than the station's operating voitage in order to offset the increased flashover potential created by these conditions.

Financed by Cyprus,South Butte Substation is currently operated by SREC. The $1.9 million facility required design interface with several entities.As the joint owners of the project, Cyprus and Salmon River supplied key input data and retained final review and approval authority.Bonneville Power Administration,as the power supplier,provided in- put to the station's totalized metering design.The Bureau of Land Management,on whose land the station is sited,was actively involved in the site selection process and also requested that certain visual impact mitigation measures such as berms and revegetation be incorporated into the design plan. Aesthetics were of primary importance in POWER's design of this modern facility located adjacent to the scenic Challis National Forest.Every attempt was made to mitigate the visual impact of the station on its moun- tain surroundings.A low-profile rigid bus scheme was utilized to streamline its appearance and reduce visibility. Slender field-welded and gusseted tubular steel station structures with battered legs were custom designed to give the station a sleek,non-angular look.Spacious physical layout and selection of a structure paint that blends with the surrounding mountains were further design measures to minimize the station's visibility and enhance its aesthetic appearance. Electrical design of the 100-MVA substation features a redundant autotransformer scheme to ensure a reliable power supply for the mine.One autotransformer normally supplies both feeders while the other transformer serves as a backup.Autotransformers were specified for thei considerable cost savings over multiple-winding transformers.Additional cost savings were realized by specifying circuit switchers for high-side transformer protection in lieu of more costly circuit breakers. Ne Sited at 5700 feet in mountainous terrain with severe winter conditions,the South Butte Substation also required high-altitude and extreme-weather design measures.Average winter snow depths of several feet necessitated raising the bus height to maintain safety clearances,while electrical spacings and clearances were increased to compensate for the reduced atmospheric insulation at that altitude. Further design features included extensive site pre- paration and an elaborate oil spill containment system.Space constraints dictated siting of the substation in an old streambed adjacent to the existing stream.To prevent the possibility of flooding,the entire site was raised with fill material and drainage was employed.An extensive oil spill containment system was incorporated to prevent oil from polluting the nearby stream in the event of leakage.The sophisticated system features a three-layer filter drain composed of sand, polyurethane foam and oil imbiber beads that permit water to pass through while trapping oil. arisar +SE Tames mea.

There are presently two 34.5kV connections to other utility systems.One connection is to Anchorage Municipal Light and Power (ML&P)at WPP Substa- tion.The other connection is to Fort Richardson/ ML&P at Hospital Substation. POWER conducted a field investigation to verify equipment nameplate ratings,circuit configurations, conductor and cable sizes,and operating configura-tion for the electrical power system.POWER con- ducted interviews with Base operations and mainte- nance personnel,facilities managers and local utili- ties to develop normal and emergency operating modes and utility intertie requirements.Power plant operating records were researched to compile his- torical load data for Elmendorf AFB and prepare load forecasts to the year 2000. POWER compiled data from the field investigation and base records for the 12.47kV generating plant, 34.5kV subtransmission system and 12.47kV distn- bution feeders to develop a computer model of the electrical system for analysis.POWER evaluated five electrical system analysis software packages and recommended an analysis package that was 'best suited to Elmendorf AFB's needs. Project Brief -Studies Upon purchase of the analysis software,POWER created the electrical system database and one-line diagrams for the electrical system analysis software. Load flow,short circuit,transient stability and protec- tive device coordination studies were performed to assess the capabilities and liabilities of the existing and alternative electrical systems with normal and emergency operating modes.A report on the stud- ies'findings andrecommendations forupgrades and improvements was submitted to and approved by the Air Force. POWER designed an upgrade to the existing Hospi- tal Substation to provide a full-time intertie capability to ML&P and a nearby U.S.Army facility.POWER's recommendations for the point of connection to ML&P required the construction of a new breaker bay and transformer upgrade to the existing ML&P 115-34.5kV substation,therefore alleviating any ex- tra line routing and right of way expense. 'POWER prepared designs and specifications for replacement of approximatelytwo miles of 12.47kV underground cable (direct buried and in duct)to improve system reliability,provide loop feed capa- bility and bring the system into compliance with codes and standards. Upgrades to the 34.5kV system protection and me- tering were.also designed by POWER.The up- grades provided revenue class metering at the elec- trical utility intertie points and protection of the Elmendorf AFB electrical system from outages due to disturbances on the interconnected utility sys- tems. The project was completed on time and under bud- get.

AEA specified five aspects for POWER to address: (1)determine the need for a new transmission line between Anchorage and the Kenai Peninsula and determine a complete field of options if such a line is needed;(2)assess upgrading the existing Chugach Electric Association and Homer Electric Association lines; (3)conduct a transmission route selection study for a new transmission line;(4)determine environmental and permitting requirements for recommended routes;and,(5)prepare a cost estimate for the recommended new line and or upgrade of the existing line. After existing studies of the utility were reviewed,POWER conducted its own transmission system studies using an in-house system specifically designed for scientific and engineering applications.The POWER System Analysis (PSA)programs are run on POWER's network of supermini computers.These programs included load flow studies to evaluate the existing and proposed transmission system and a stability study to analyze the voltage and phase conditions during and immediately following a system disturbance.The results of these studies were analyzed to determine the optimum voltage level,conductor size,line configuration,switching requirements,and reactive compensation requirements for the proposed intertie. POWER also researched the land use and environmental issues concerned with this project and identified geographic conditions that would require special considerations.POWER developed cost estimates for land services such as right of way acquisitions and permits,as well as for engineering,material construction management,submarine cable construction, and maintenance costs for each alternative route. POWER selected a preferred route among four possible routes:the existing line upgraded to 230kV and three other proposed routes.POWER also determined the design criteria for the transmission system.Because the Cook Inlet must be crossed to reach the Peninsula from Anchorage,POWER addressed design and routing concerns for submarine cabling. POWER conducted this study in conjunction with Hart-Crowser,who provided environmental, land,and geotechnical services,with extensive Alaskan and arctic experience.

The Northeast Transmission Intertie required: 1.Upgrading an existing 115kV line between Teeland Substation and O'Neal Substation; 2.Construction of approximately 285 miles of 230kV overhead transmission line between O'Neal and Jarvis Creek Substations (with a new switchyard at Gakona); 3.Construction of a 138kV overhead trans- mission line between Carney Substation and North Pole Substation;and 4.Modifications to the O'Neal,Pumping Station No.11,Jarvis Creek,Carney,and North Pole Substations. POWER provided feasibility-level design,cost estimates and associated engineering,route selection,and permitting studies for these line sections and stations. The project was organized in two phases.In the first phase,POWER analyzed the trans-mission system and performed a reconnaissance study to determine both a preferred route and an alternative route.In the second phase,POWER performed a transmission system design of tre preferred route.POWER identified landowners. right of way,and permit requirements for tre preferred route.A critical part of Phase 2 was a field investigation of the preferred route to acquire specific geotechnical and environ. mental information critical to the design of tre various facilities. An Alaskan-based environmental engineenrg firm,Hart Crowser,joined POWER for this project.Hart Crowser was involved in the rout- ing and environmental tasks for the feasibility study. This complex project was given a relatively short time period to complete the study.Because of the short time frame,rapid data transfer for the studies was necessary for the project.POWER's Electrocon PSA software capabilities was a major asset for the study. During the transmission system analysis,POWER determined the reactive compensation require- ments and the transmission line conductor size and configuration. To identify alternative routes and prepare route maps,POWER used Alaska State Department of Natural Resources (DNR)maps.On these maps, significant routing constraints were identified and incorporated into a general analysis.From there,a recommendation for a preferred route was made.With the preferred route transferred to DNR maps to determine specific ownership,a list of permits and right of way agreements were developed.This land information was used later in performing the final cost estimates. Cost estimates included costs associated with design,permitting,land acquisition,engin- eertng,surveying,construction labor and materials,and construction management and administration. The project study area is subject to varied climatic and geologic conditions.The terrain ranges from mountains to tundra;the climate 's temperate to arctic.This variety posed challeng- ing design considerations for POWER's design team.One design feature was structure selection.A choice for extreme weather conditions where frost heaves are prevalent were tubular guyed "X”structures with pile foundations. With the completion of the transmission system studies,POWER submitted a final report.This report presented the results of the electrical data review,utility meetings,environmental reconnaissance,land use issues,line route system requirements,cost estimates,and the transmission studies.

The attached evaluation form was created for the five proposals received to allow for a fair comparison based on experience, ability to perform,man-hour effort,and price.Of all the proposals,was felt to provide the best value,local experience, and realistic view of the tasks to be performed. Phucan Consulting provided a hastily prepared proposal which did not provide a approach for construction.Experience was good,but most of the transmission line experience was on the rocky northern portion of the intertie which has had several foundation problems. The selection of Golder and Associates was primarily based on the team's superior value demonstrated by their arctic experience in substation design and construction management of successful projects,local Alaskan design team with the ability to provide timely services,and realistic price.The following shows the ranking for design and construction management based on price alone: Proposer Phase 1 Phase 2 Total Phucan Consultant Golder &Assoc.

Therefore,this project will be a significant logistics challenge.In this proposal we have concentrated much of our effort on the drilling program and other programs that can supplement and enhance this part of our study.We believe we have developed a workable program that will provide the geotechnical data and recommendations to efficiently design and construct the intertie. Our approach,a detailed description of the tasks we have planned,our costs,and our proposed schedule are presented in the following four sections of this proposal.In the last two of the proposal we have discussed our proposed staffing for this project and our firm experience. Appendices present resumes of our proposed staff,description of many of our recent Alaskan geotechnical projects,and details of the project plans we have developed for this proposal. Golder Associates February 22,1994 ae PR3-5606 2.PROJECT APPROACH Our approach to siting transmission line projects is based on viewing Golder as a team member along with the transmission line designer and Golden Valley.By working closely with the designer and Golden Valley,throughout the project,we can help ensure that design,and future operationsand maintenance issues are considered at the appropriate time.We have already established this working relationship with the designer and we expect that it will assist us in providing the most cost-effective product to Golden Valley.Often cost is the controlling factor in developing siting criteria.However,when cost is not the apparent controlling factor,costs can be assigned to other factors such as right-of-way concerns,geotechnical constraints,topographic constraints,and environmental issues.Assigning ranges of costs to these issues,assists in tracking siting decisions on a rational basis. Our team members have performed numerous siting studies in Alaska and throughout the world for powerlines,pipelines,waterlines,waste facilities,dam structures,missile sites,and other structures and facilities.In each of these studies our primary role has been the geotechnical assessment of the route or site.In most cases the preferred geotechnical route could not always be used.Therefore,it has always been important to work with the design team to balance the -*+4mportance of each siting criteria issue.This has been done using decision matrices and other techniques to keep the design team focused on all aspects of the siting process. In the following subsections of this proposal we will present our step by step approach to performing the geotechnical assessment of the Healy to Fairbanks 230 kV Intertie through Phases 1 and 2.This section will present the flow of information as we see it being developed.Later in the proposal we will address each of the tasks you have defined for Phase 1 and Phase 2 and show how our approach fits into those tasks. 2.1 Initial Layout of the Transmission Line This is usually performed by the designer and frequently one of our geologists or geotechnical engineers will assist with this route selection.In your RFP the initial route has been presented. In addition,no subsurface data has been acquired and winter access is preferred to minimize Golder Associates February 22,1994 -3-PR3-5606 environmental impact of the geotechnical boring program.Thus,in Phase 1 of this study the route provided in the RFP will be the route that is assessed. 2.2 logic Mapping and Borehol tion Selection Some basic geologic mapping was provided in the RFP.In this proposal we have selected 25 proposed boring locations based on this mapping and other more detailed mapping from our files.In developing these boring locations we have attempted to select boring locations that would help us more precisely define the engineering characteristics and limits of the mapped geologic units. Additional published information is available as are high altitude (lin =1mi)false color infra-red photography.Other aerial photography may be available for portions of the route.This existing information will be studied in detail by our geologists using a high power stereo zoom transferscope.The boring locations we have presented in our proposal will be reviewed after the aerial image analysis and may be adjusted after consultation with the designer. Once the final Phase 1 boring locations are selected and agreed upon,latitudes and longitudes will be developed for each boring.A GPS will be used with a helicopter to locate each boring. The accuracy is expected to be plus or minus about 300 ft.Each boring will be flagged and flagged PVC casings will be left at each boring upon completion.With this flagging and marking, the GPS should provide adequate accuracy for Phase 1.Additional accuracy (+2-5 meters)could be provided by having a survey team use a Trimble GPS Master Receiver with a Rover.This additional surveying,if done in conjunction with the drilling program,would add about $15,000 to the cost of Phase 1. At this point we would usually recommend that the designer and a geologist or geotechnical engineer inspect the route by helicopter to verify the office interpretations.However,because snow cover would severely limit aerial viewing at this time,we have proposed to wait until the __end of the drilling program when the snow cover is gone. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -4-| PR3-5606 2.2 Field Drilling Program The field drilling program for Phase 1 will consist of drilling 25 borings to an average depth of approximately 35 ft.The field program will be directed by our field manager who will locate each boring using a helicopter and GPS prior to the rig coming on location.The depths of the borings may be adjusted in the field by our geologist or geotechnical engineer if appropriate. To make our program more efficient and less likely to result in environmental impacts,we plan to drill most of the Phase 1 borings using a helicopter transported rig.The rig we plan to use has been specifically designed for helicopter use with light weight easy to assemble modules and sufficient power to air rotary drill at least 50 ft in dense or stiff soils. The rig will have the following sampling equipment as a minimum: 1.SPT standard and 3 in.O.D.split tube drive samplers 2.140 and 300 lbs drive hammers 3.Shelby tubes for unfrozen clay or other soft soils 4.Modified Shelby Tubes for frozen silts and clays Each boring will be sampled at 5 ft intervals.In granular soils,penetration tests will be conducted using the Standard Penetration Test procedure or a modification of that procedure to accommodate the particle sizes and other conditions encountered.Frozen soils will be sampled with a Modified Shelby barrel sampler and will be weighed and measured in the field for dry density determinations.Some frozen samples will be stored frozen for thaw consolidation testing. Others will be allowed to thaw and will be used for moisture content testing and classification testing. Pocket Penetrometer and Torvane tests will be conducted on intact samples that are obtained. When samples are allowed to thaw,these tests will be conducted before and after thawing. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -5-PR3-5606 2.3 Laboratory Testing Laboratory testirtg will be used to aid in the characterization of the engineering properties of each geologic unit we investigate.Classification,moisture content,thaw consolidation,and dry density determinations will be the key laboratory testing categories.For Phase 1 we do not recommend costly strength testing,such as triaxial shear,because we believe that the field tests we have proposed give results that are much more representative of the actual insitu soil conditions.As Phase 2 is developed,other specific laboratory tests may be recommended if we can demonstrate that they would aid us in understanding the strength properties that will control the design of the tower supports. 2.4 Engineering Analyses The key to successful tower foundations is the close coordination and cooperation of the geotechnical engineers and the designer so that they can synergistically optimize the design while addressing each of the appropriate concerns. This project has a very unique opportunity to take advantage of information that is frequently not available for this type of project.The existing intertie is,in many ways,similar to the proposed intertie and passes through many of the same geologic units.The performance of foundations of the existing intertie should give us a good base for identifying potential problem areas for the new intertie foundations.\We have proposed a significant effort to make this evaluation.In Phase 1 we will field check some of the problem foundations on the existing intertie and make extensive use of any records available from Golden Valley. In Phase 1 the engineering analyses will tecus on determining which properties in each geologic unit will control the design of the tower toundations.In areas near Healy,landslides may affect some tower locations and shallow bedr«k may control the construction of the foundations. Particular attention will be given to landslide issues because of the history of problems in this area.We have developed practical engincenng solutions for numerous landslides in this area including along the Parks Highway.Nearer to Fairbanks permafrost concerns may control design,particularly if the construction of the powerline could result in ground thermal reyime Golder Associates February 22,1994 -6-PR3-5606 changes.In most areas the active layer and the resulting heave and variation in lateral restraint will be a concern that will be addressed.This phase of the work will have to be conducted in close consultation with the designer so that no time will be wasted developing concepts that cannot be readily accommodated. During the analyses we will work with the designer to develop appropriate foundation types for each geologic unit encountered.We will then set criteria for establishing the geotechnical properties that will be used in the design of these foundations.Because there will inevitably be route adjustments,we will assess the lateral variability of the engineering geologic units selected. As we assess the lateral capacity of piles,we will be using LPILE to perform these analyses.In the past we have frequently used COM624,the predecessor to LPILE.Both programs were developed by associates of Dr.Lyman C.Reese and are designed to determine the lateral restraint provided by multiple layers of soils.In many cases in Alaska the lateral resistance change with the seasons is significant.We will use LPILE to perform parametric studies to bound the strength variations we determine may be possible.We will design and modify our field testing program to realistically develop the appropriate soil properties for use in these analyses. 2.5 Phase 1 Report Phase 1 will end with a report of our findings and conclusions.It will contain the following information: 1.A description of the work performed 2.Details of drilling and testing programs 3.A geologic map of the powerline alignment 4.Boring and geologic unit soil property profiles 5.Recommended foundation types 6.Recommended foundation design procedures 7.Recommended criteria for Phase 2 investigations Golder Associates February 22,1994 .7-PR3-5606 2.6 Phase 2 Approach Phase 2 will be ued to provide more definition to the geotechnical features and foundation types to maximize project cost effectiveness.We believe that Phase 2 should be performed as a continuation of Phase 1.There are some tasks that should be accomplished before next fall and new snow cover.The project geologist and project geotechnical engineer should closely review the output of the DVG survey.This may result in the identification of a need for an additional helicopter inspection of the route concentrating on specific locations for tower foundations.It is critical that this work be done in the summer.This work would also be very helpful in optimizing the locations of the Phase 2 borings and in developing specific field test programs that may be appropriate for some types foundations. At this time further definition of Phase 2 would be dependent on the results of Phase 1.In the Task by Task description of the our proposed work we have scoped out a plan for Phase 2 which we believe will be the most that would be required for Phase 2.We believe that through close coordination with you and the designer we will be able to modify and optimize Phase 2 geotechnical work. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -8-PR3-5606 3.TASK DESCRIPTIONS This proposal ha§been developed to follow the major tasks that were outlined in your RFP.We have proposed our approach in the preceding paragraphs and we propose to implement this approach according to the schedules presented as Figure 1.These schedules show your tasks as we have modified and scheduled them using Microsoft Project.In appendices tabbed "Phase 1 Project Detail"and "Phase 2 Project Detail”,the Microsoft Project Printouts have been included to give you the cost and resource detail for each task. 3.1 Task 1.0 -Project Administration This task will consist of the initial meetings with you and the designer and the preparation of monthly progress reports and other administrative information that you may request.We do not expect thatithis will be a task that will consume a significant amount of time since we have planned to work closely with the designer as we go through the other tasks,keeping him up to date on what we are doing. 3.2 Task 2.0 -Data Review In our approach we consider this to be one of the more important tasks.There is a substantial amount of geologic and engineering data available near and along the proposed intertie route. We have worked in this area for the Alaska Railroad,Alaska DOT/PF,and Usibelli Coal Mine and therefore we are aware of some of the information available from these sources.The most important information,we believe,will be the performance history data from the existing intertie; the geotechnical data from the existing intertie;the available geologic data;and aenal photography.All of this information will be reviewed and summarized in our Phase 1 report. 3.3 Task 3.0 -Study Design Criteria _In this task we will review the specific boring locations,the anticipated foundation types,and other available information with the designer.We have proposed our approach to the Phase 1 Golder Associates February 22,1994 -9-° PR3-5606 drilling program.We would use this task to review and,as appropriate adjust that program prior to going into the field. '3.4 Tasks 4.0 &4.1 -Geologic Mapping Prior to drilling,geologic research and mapping will be conducted to identify and delineate the landforms traversed by the proposed powerline alignment.As elements of the landscape,each landform has a definite composition and range of physical,vegetative,geotechnical and visual attributes that occur wherever the landform exists.Because of the large body of geotechnical test data which was correlated to landforms along the nearby Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS), we will use the TAPS landform classification system.This system groups landforms on the basis of genesis,with the rationale that similar geologic processes result in landforms with similar engineering properties that present similar engineering problems. US Geological Survey (USGS)reports,geologic maps and stereo analysis of aerial photographs will be used to aid the landform delineation.Geologic reports will be reviewed to determine the limits of glaciation,bedrock properties,permafrost distribution,thermal regime,Quaternary geology,and other geologic aspects relevant to the powerline alignment. Some of the alignment is covered at a scale of 1 inch =1 mile by USGS geologic maps.1986 false color infrared photos cover the entire alignment.Using the USGS maps as a guide,the landforms will be delineated on acetate overlays of the aerial photographs and transferred to USGS topographic base maps.Geologic hazards such as active and inactive landslide zones and permafrost zones will also be delineated. In addition,available geotechnical data from material sites and boreholes on adjacent portions of the Parks Highway will be obtained from the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF).Because the Parks Hiyhway crosses similar terrain near the proposed powerline,these logs will provide information on surface and subsurface conditions which will correlate well with the corresponding landforms on the powerline route.Other existing borehole data from Golder Valley Electric Association and Usibelli Coal Mine will be used if available and relevant to the landforms traversed by the powerline route. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -10-PR3-5606 A preliminary geologic strip map of the alignment will be prepared at a scale of 1 inch =1 mile. The map will be annotated as necessary to identify hazards,slope,and economic considerations. In our Microsoft Project detail and in our costs we have included a task which was not requested, but which we feel is very important in the development of our understanding of the geology of this route.We propose a two day geologic helicopter reconnaissance immediately after the drilling program is completed,if snow cover permits.During this reconnaissance our geologists or engineer would fly with the powerline designer to refine our geologic and engineering interpretations of route.This would also help in identifying criteria for future borings and the planned DVG survey. 3.5 Task 5.0 -Soils Boring Locations And Data Phase 1 boreholes will be selected in order to characterize the landforms as a whole rather than to investigate specific locations.Based on the geologic map provided in the RFP,we have developed the following table to show the length of the powerline alignment that traverses each of the mapped geologic units on the map.We have assumed for the purposes of this selection that each geologic unit is a landform. Geologic Cumulative Number of Unit Miles Boreholes Qs 9.1 2 Teb 2.1 1 Tn 178 5 Qaf 19 1 Mt 25 1 QI (landslide)v4 0 Qha 13 1 Qtf m1 1 Qab 22.5 4 Qa 123 3 be 1]1 Qsu 1345 3 'Qf 12 2 Totals 8 3 25 Golder Associates February 22,1994 -11-PR3-5606 The 25 boreholes were approximately apportioned to each landform based on the landform's cumulative length.At least one borehole was designated to each major geologic unit.The approximate preliminary locations of these boreholes are shown on Figure 1.Borehole locations will be refined based on interpretation of aerial photographs prior to drilling.Final boreholes locations will be determined based on considerations of slope orientation,slope angle,permafrost, vegetation,drainage,slope stability,and other factors._ Phase 2 boreholes will be selected to confirm landform boundaries and will also likely include some specific locations such as points of intersection,or areas with questionable.sub-surface conditions. The latitude and longitude of each proposed borehole will be determined based on plotting the locations on a USGS base map.The boreholes will be located and staked in the field by helicopter using air photos and Global Positioning System (GPS)instruments.We typically expect an accuracy of 300 ft or better with the GPS. We have discussed higher accuracy surveys with surveyors from USKH.For an additional cost of about $15,000 a survey team working with our drill crew could increase the accuracy of each hole location to +2 to 5 meters using a GPS master receiver in conjunction with a roving receiver. 3.6 Tasks 6.0 -Foundation/Anchor Type A number of different foundation and anchor systems will be developed which are appropnate for the particular terrain units identified during the field mapping/exploration.Consideration will be given to the following design and construction criteria: °Axial loading conditions (compression and uplift) °Lateral loading conditions .Heave forces (including capability to resist heave forces and to iraae adjustments as necessary to accommodate heave) Golder Associates February 22,1994 -12-PR3-5606 °Liquefaction potential in floodplain areas °Constraints on construction equipment imposed by access routes .Constraints on construction scheduling imposed by access conditions Typical terrain units and associated foundation/anchor types might include the following: Shallow bedrock -Footing foundations with tie-downs;grouted rock anchors. .Competent soil -Short H-pile foundations;screw anchors or grouted soil anchors. .Soft/loose soil -Long H-pile foundations;screw anchors or driven pile anchors. °Frozen soil -Pre-drilled H-pile,drilled pipe pile,or drilled concrete pier foundations;grouted soil anchors,pre-drilled screw anchors,or pre-drilled pile anchors.Thermal modification may be considered to improve installation conditions. As we assess the lateral capacity of piles,we will be using LPILE to perform these analyses.In the past we have frequently used COM624,the predecessor to LPILE.Both programs were developed by associates of Dr.Lyman C.Reese and are designed to determine the lateral restraint provided by multiple layering of soils.In many cases in Alaska the lateral resistance change with the seasons is significant.We will use LPILE to perform parametric studies to bound the strength variations we determine may be possible.We will design and modify our field testing program to realistically develop the appropriate soil properties for use in these analyses. 3.7 Task 7.0,7.1,7.2,&7.3 -Drilling and Sampling Methods Drilling will be accomplished using a combination of track-mounted and heli-portable drill rigs. Boreholes accessible by the tracked-mounted will be drilled with a Mobile B-61 drill mounted on a Nodwell carrier using hollow-stem auger.Other boreholes will be drilled with a heli-portable drill using air rotary methods.We understand that Golden Valley will obtain appropriate rights of entry prior to the commencement of drilling for the access to,and the location of,each borehole. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -13-PR3-5606 Drive samples will be obtained with splitspoons driven with a 140 lb or 300 Ib safety hammer. Drive samples will be taken every 5 ft to a depth of 35 ft or refusal.Samples will be visually logged in the field and placed in moisture proof containers for shipment to the Golder soils laboratory.Particular attention will be paid to the depth of the water table and presence of visible ice.Frozen samples will be kept frozen. Our field crew will consist of a Golder geotechnical engineer or geologist who will supervise the drilling and log the borehole,a driller,and two drill helpers.One of the helpers will proceed ahead of the drilling operation with a chainsaw to clear drill sites.He will also help during ng moves as personnel are required on both ends of the slinging operation. Prior to backfilling,a 1 inch PVC casing will be installed in each borehole to provide a conduit for measuring ground temperatures.Thermistor strings will be temporarily installed in the casings to measure the ground temperatures. 3.8 Tasks 8.0 &8.1 -Field and Laboratory Testing Reports Laboratory testing will concentrate on classification,moisture determinations,dry density determinations,and thaw stability of saturated frozen strata.The details of the tests proposed are presented in the Microsoft Project Printouts in the appendices tabbed as "Phase 1 Project Detail”and "Phase 2 Project Detail". Results of all field and laboratory testing will be summarized in tables.Specific design parameters will be shown on profiles of each boring.To the extent practical we will develop "Design Profiles"for each geologic unit.It is possible that these profiles would result in standard foundation designs for given loads in each geologic unit. 3.9 Task 9.0 -Final Report Phase 1 In the final report we will detail all analyses and methods used to develop the foundation designs and recommendations that we will present to you.In this effort,as throughout the Golder Associates February 22,1994 -14-PR3-5606 study,we have elected to use our senior staff to prepare this report.We believe that this will bring more experience to the project and will be produce a more efficient product for you. This task would consist of the preparation and assembly of the final report which would include the following: 1.A description of the geotechnical study 2.Details of drilling and testing 3.A geologic map of the powerline alignment 4.Boring and geologic unit soil property profiles 5.Recommended foundation types 6.Recommended foundation design procedures 7.Recommended criteria for Phase 2 investigations Prior to submission of our final report we plan to have discussed in detail each of our recommendations with you and your designer so that our recommendations do not impose any unnecessary constraints or conditions on your project.In many cases we find that this process allows us to better understand your expectations and capabilities to address issues that we may identify during our work.We then are able to adjust our recommendations to better fit your specific needs. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -15- ) PR3-5606 4.ESTIMATED COSTS Microsoft Project was used to cost and schedule the work we have proposed.Phase 1 has been described and costed in detail.Phase 2 has been costed in detail with limited scope descriptions based on the assumption the tasks will be similar with levels of effort modified as we have shown.We believe that when Phase 1 is completed there will be changes in the Phase 2 scope which could result in substantial savings in cost.For example Phase 2 costing is based on another drilling program using 2 drills with one helicopter to bore 100 locations.We think the number of locations may change and,with adequate knowledge of the route and planning,some savings may be possible using a track-mounted drill for more of the borings. The total not-to-exceed cost for Phase 1 as proposed is $205,000.Of this $11,000 is for Task 4.1 which is beyond the scope of your RFP and could be eliminated,though we do not recommend that you do so.The total not-to-exceed cost estimated for Phase 2 is $278,000.The details of this estimate are presented in the appendix tabbed "Phase 2 Project Detail". All costs are time and materials at the rates shown on Figure 4 our "Schedule of 1994 Standard Rates"the Resources Table presented in the appendix tabbed "Phase 1 Project Detail”.Please note that for the cost estimate and for this project we have proposed a reduced rate of $130 per hour for the two Principals proposed on this project. The man-hour breakdowns and costs from the Microsoft Project Printouts have been transferred to your forms which are presented as Figures 2 and 3.In completing your man-hour breakdown table which is shown in Figure 2,we have presented hours for our Principal Engineer and Principal Geologist under your title Project Manager although neither will act as the project manager as will be discussed in Section 6 «1 this proposal.One of the Project Engineers assigned to the project will provide the day to day project management.The two Principals will provide senior technical guidance for the project and participate in specific project activities for which their experience and skills are required.I'lvase reter to our Project Detail for specifics. In this cost estimate we have assumed that vou would be able to provide rights of entry to each of the boring locations prior to the initiation ot our drilling program as laid out in the schedule Golder Associates February 22,1994 -16-PR3-5606 discussed in the next section of this proposal.This is very important because our drilling contractor costs are lump sum,based on a single mobilization and continuous access to the drill locations thereafter. If there are items in our cost estimate that do not reflect the level of effort you believe is necessary,whether too much or too little,we would be happy to sit down with you and discuss any changes you may desire.In the Project Detail appendices we have tried to provide the detail that you would need to assess our approach. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -17-PR3-5606 5.SCHEDULE In Figure 5 we have presented our proposed project schedules for Phase 1 and Phase 2 in conformance with the schedule deadlines presented in your RFP.Two significant points to note in our schedule are: 1.We are ready to begin immediately. 2."We-have a significant break between Phase 1 and Phase 2. The significant schedule break was our response to our understanding of your schedule requirements.We believe that immediate continuation of Phase 2 after Phase 1 would allow additional visual study of the route in summer which could result in a more effective and efficient drilling program for Phase 2.he . Le This schedule has been developed as part of our overall project plan on Microsoft Project.Detail dates of each proposed activity are presented in the Project Detail appendices.This plan is based on our understanding of your project as of today.As you know with the Project program this plan can be modified easily and adjusted to fit your needs.We are veryWilling to work with you to speed up or lengthen the schedule and work with you to make this an efficient and well planned project for you. As stated in the previous section of this proposal,the costs of this project are closely tied to this schedule.Other activities can possibly change with little impact.Upon notice to proceed we would meet with you and determine if there are any aspects of the schedule that are not realistic from your standpoint.We would then adjust the schedule to accommodate your needs while assuring that the drilling program can proceed with no interruptions. Golder Associates February 22,1994 -18-PR3-5606 6.PROPOSED KEY STAFF The key staff for this project have been shown in their respective positions in an organization chart which is presented as Figure 6.
