The existing TAP pipeline runs along Highway 99 from its connection to the MWC main transmission line at Belknap Road to its terminus in the City of Talent at Suncrest Road. The City has a reserved capacity of 1.5 million gallons per day (mgd) from the MWC through the TAP pipeline. In 2004, the City contracted with Carollo Engineers, P.C. (CONSULTANT) to complete preliminary engineering for an extension of the TAP pipeline from its current terminus in Talent to Ashland's distribution system. This initial work was completed in the 2007 and included an analysis of alternatives for the TAP pipeline routing, identification of a preferred pipeline size, a storage evaluation, conceptual design of a pump station, and planning-level cost estimates. It was initially assumed that a new TAP Terminal Reservoir would be constructed within Ashland. However, work completed in 2007 under the Water Distribution System Modeling Services Project determined that the TAP extension could be connected directly to the Ashland distribution system along Highway 99, allowing Granite Reservoir to provide operational storage for the new pipeline. The objectives of this scope of services is limited to identifying and evaluating potential pump station sites in Talent, making a pump station site recommendation, and assisting the City with land us permitting and purchase of the recommended site. CONSULTANT SCOPE OF SERVICES It is anticipated that the TAP pump station will be located near the current terminus of the TAP pipeline at Suncrest Road in Talent. The pump station is assumed to have a firm capacity of 1.5 mgd, delivered by two 250-hp horizontal centrifugal pumps. The pump station is assumed to have a third empty pump bay to accommodate future expansion to a firm capacity of 3 mgd if desired. The pump station is assumed to have dimensions of approximately 20 by 30 feet, and to C:\DOCUME-I%rownp\LOCALS-I\Temp\XPGMWise\Ashland TAP Design SOW limited scope for ps- DRAM'. doe I be constructed at grade using concrete masonry construction.

Specific items included under this task will include: Confirmation of Site Selection. CONSULTANT will confirm the current availability of sites identified in the preliminary design and rank all available sites, including identification of a preferred site. The results of the site selection will be summarized in a brief technical memorandum. Permitting Assistance.
