PROPOSAL FOR <br />On -Call Engineering Design Services PFAS Treatment Systems <br />Victor Ramirez, PE, SE Education <br />Structural <br />B5, Civil Engineering, <br />California State University, <br />Victor has more than 41 years of structural engineering design <br />Los Angeles, 1995 <br />experience with special emphasis in the design of water storage/water <br />Registrations <br />containment and water conveyance related structures. His experience <br />Professional Civil Engineer, <br />includes reservoirs, water/wastewater treatment plants, booster pump <br />California, No. 56863, 1997 <br />stations, flow control facilities, pressure reducing stations and <br />Professional Structural <br />pipelines. Victor is thoroughly knowledgeable in all types of <br />Engineer, California, <br />construction, including reinforced concrete, masonry, structural steel, <br />No. 4720, 2004 <br />and timber. <br />Years of Experience <br />EXPERIENCE <br />41 <br />PEAS On -Call Contract, Orange County Water District, CA. 2021. <br />Lead Structural Engineer for IXIGAC treatment for PFOS and PFOA design for 18 affected wells in the <br />main Orange County Basin. Projects included design, estimating of capital and operating costs, <br />coordinating with vessel suppliers, and construction management for the following projects: <br />■ Serrano Water District Well #5 and #9 (In Operation): This project consists of a 3,000 GPM <br />IX System with a bag filter pre-treatment, 3,000 GPM Booster Pump Station and new chemical feed <br />system for disinfection. <br />■ Kimberley Well 1A (In Operation): Located on a very small site with a single well this facility is <br />designed to produce 3,000 GPM using an IX System with a bag filter pre-treatment and new <br />chemical feed system for disinfection. <br />n Fullerton Main Plant (Completed Design): The Fullerton Main Plant will treat six onsite wells with a <br />total capacity of 10,100 GPM. PFOS, PFOA and VOCs will be removed using 5 to 12 ft diameter, <br />40,000 lb. GAC vessels that will discharge into an existing forebay then pumped into the distribution <br />system, The remaining wells will be treated with an IX system consisting of 8 vessels and bag filters <br />for pre-treatment. <br />n Yorba Linda Water District Headquarters Plant (In operation): This system will treat water from <br />10 wells with a total capacity of 17,400 GPM. An IX System consisting of 11 pairs of Lead/Lag <br />Vessels (22 vessels total), bag filter pre-treatment, Booster Pump Station, and new Onsite <br />Generation System for chlorine disinfection. In order to get the system on the existing site an <br />extensive analysis of the site improvements was completed. <br />PFAS Study for Wells ET-1, ET-2 and 78, Irvine Ranch Water District, Irvine, CA. 2 02 1. Lead <br />Structural Engineer for a study to determine the options to add PFAS treatment to an operating VOC air <br />stripper project. Well ET-1 operates at 2.0 MGD through one tray air stripper that discharges into a <br />small wet well with a single booster pump station. The existing plant is located on a small lot with <br />limited space. Project included analysis of water quality, options for IX or GAC treatment and analysis <br />of adding wells ET-2 and 78 to the project if they become affected by PEAS. Capital and O&M costs <br />were also prepared. <br />PFAS Study for Five Wells, City of Downey, CA. 2021. Lead Structural Engineer for a study to <br />determine the options to add PFAS treatment to five existing wells in Downey affected by PFOS and <br />PFOA. Study included analysis of water quality, siting study, comparison of IX and GAC treatment, <br />evaluation of piping wells to a central location for treatment, capital cost estimates, O&M estimates and <br />lifecycle cost analysis. The report was used as an attachment to the City of Downey's funding <br />application to Water Replenishment District of Southern California. <br />Hunting Horn Reservoir Evaluation, Golden State Water Company, North Tustin, CA. 2019. <br />QAIQC Structural Manager for the structural and seismic evaluation and study of Hunting Horn <br />Reservoir, a partially buried, cylindrical, reinforced concrete tank with a wood framed roof. The tank has <br />a capacity of 0.44 MG and is about 72 feet in diameter by 16 feet deep. It has a flat concrete floor, <br />concrete masonry walls, and a wood framed roof. <br />TETRA TECH <br />
