TOPIC: Caterpillar Diesel Standby Generator Sets for Water Wells
AGENDA TITLE
Award a Contract to Quinn Power Systems for the Purchase of Two Caterpillar Diesel
Standby Generator Sets for Well 28 and Well 31 in the Amount of $458,870 (Specification
No. 21-078) (Non-General Fund)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Award a contract to Quinn Power Systems for the one-time purchase of two Caterpillar
diesel standby generator sets for Well 28 and Well 31 in an amount not to exceed
$458,870, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City
Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency’s Water Resources Division oversees and maintains the daily
operations of the City’s water and sanitary sewer systems. The water system is composed
of approximately 480 miles of water main, 21 groundwater wells, seven pump stations,
10 reservoirs with a storage capacity of 49 million gallons, four pressure-regulating
stations, and seven connection points to the Metropolitan Water District (MWD). The
system has an average daily demand of 30 million gallons from its roughly 45,000 service
connections.
During power outage events, such as the Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) performed
by the City of Santa Ana’s energy provider Southern California Edison (SCE) to reduce
the fire risk caused by the SCE infrastructure, certain water production equipment is
rendered non-operational. In response, the Water Resources Division applied for and
received $300,000 in funding from the California Governor’s Office of Emergency
Services (CalOES) Community Power Resiliency Allocation to Cities Program for the
purchase of fixed power generators for use at Wells 28 and 31. These generators will
ensure that water production equipment at these two sites remain operational during
power outage events.
Santa Ana Ordinance No. NS-2312 authorizes the City to purchase against contracts from
any public agency employing a competitive bid process. Sourcewell has awarded a
contract for Caterpillar Heavy Construction Equipment to Quinn Power Systems and has

made it available to public agencies. Utilizing the contract awarded to Quinn Power
Systems will ensure efficient procurement of the two diesel standby generator sets.
Therefore, staff recommends awarding a one-time contract to Quinn Power Systems for
the purchase of generator sets for Well 28 and Well 31.

EMISSIONS NOTE
"California Air Resources Board (CARB) has approved alignment with the federal New Source Performance Standards (NSPS). Such
alignment allows for emergency standby engines to be exempt from Tier 4 emissions standards; however, local air districts can require more
stringent emissions control. The prospective buyer of the equipment quoted above is hereby notified the NSPS exemption does not apply to
non-emergency standby engines (e.g. prime power applications such as peak shaving, parallel operation with the grid, or storm avoidance), or
portable engines, even if used for emergency standby. Consult the local air district for permitting requirements and required emissions
controls. Presently, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 1470 requires the use of a particulate filter if an engine is
located within 100 meters of a school, and may require either a diesel particulate filter or an oxidation catalyst, depending upon engine size, if
the installation is within 50 meters of a sensitive receptor. Particulate filters may also be required for Title V and major polluting facilities. For
emissions requirements specific to the project for which this engine is being quoted, please contact SCAQMD at 909-396-2000. Unless
otherwise listed above a DPF is not included in this proposal, please call for quotation if a DPF is required for this project.”
Caterpillar engines require a minimum of 30% load to prevent engine damage due to wet-stacking. Depending upon the permit and site
specific conditions, SCAQMD emergency engine permits will only allow between 20 and 50 hours of runtime per year for non-emergency
applications such as testing and exercising. Passive Diesel Particulate Filter systems depend on generator loading of a minimum of 50-60% to
achieve minimum exhaust temperature threshold to keep soot regeneration and the filter backpressure within acceptable levels. If the engine
will be operated consistently at low loads/low exhaust temperatures, the customer should make provisions to add load via facility operations or
a load bank. Active Diesel Particulate Filter systems require no external load in order to regenerate. If listed above, Passive DPF option pricing,
does not include a load bank or a load bank circuit breaker. If a load bank is needed for this project, please call for quotation.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Acceptance of Order.
This Quotation is for Buyer's information only and is not a valid offer to sell unless signed by an authorized representative of Seller in the place provided on the face of this Quotation. Prices, terms and
conditions in an order from Buyer, which are inconsistent with the prices, terms and conditions of this Quotation, will be rejected by Seller, and are of no force and effect unless accepted in writing by Seller. Prices,
delivery schedules and the scope of work on this Quotation are subject to change at Seller’s discretion.
2. Liability.
Seller's liability on any claim of any kind, including claims for negligence, or for any loss or damage arising out of or connected with the manufacture, sale, delivery, installation, resale or use of any products
covered by or furnished under any order connected with this Quotation shall be limited to those claims arising solely from the acts of Seller and Seller shall in no way be liable for any special, indirect, incidental or
consequential damages. The term “consequential damages” shall include, but not be limited to, loss of anticipated profits, business interruption, loss of use, revenue, reputation and data, costs incurred, including
without limitation, for capital, fuel, power and loss or damage to property or equipment. Buyer expressly acknowledges and agrees that Seller has set its prices in reliance upon the limitations of liability and other terms
and conditions specified herein, which allocate the risk between Seller and Buyer and form a basis of this bargain between the parties. Any claims against Seller for shortages in shipments shall be made in writing to
Seller within fifteen (15) days of receipt of shipment by Buyer. Unless otherwise provided for in writing, Seller's responsibility for shipment ceases upon delivery to carrier, and any claims for shortage, delays or damage
occurring thereafter shall be made direct to carrier by Buyer. Seller shall not be liable for any delays in delivery attributable to strikes, labor disputes, lockouts, accidents, fires, delays in manufacture or in transportation,
delays in delivery of component materials, floods, severe weather, or Acts of God, embargoes, governmental actions, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Seller. Seller shall not indemnify nor be liable
to Buyer, Buyer’s assigns, successors, purchasers, lessees or licensees, or to any person or entity for any claims, losses, expenses or judgments arising out of or resulting in any way from the product or integration
of compatibility of the product with any other components, processes, facilities or equipment that does not comply with the equipment manufacturer(s)’s recommendations.
3. Shipments.
Unless otherwise specified, all risk of loss from the goods shall shift to Buyer at such time as the goods are delivered to a carrier for shipment to Buyer. Unless otherwise specified, shipment dates are
approximate and all quoted prices exclude shipping costs. Shipment of goods under any order accepted by Seller shall be subject to the approval by Seller of Buyer’s financial condition at the time of shipment.
Whether or not terms of payment are specified elsewhere, Seller may, at its option, condition shipments under any order accepted by Seller upon receipt of satisfactory security or of cash prior to shipment. If, at
Buyer’s request, shipment of goods under any order accepted by Seller is delayed more than thirty (30) days after the shipment date specified in the order, or the date the goods are ready for shipment, whichever is
later, Seller will require immediate payment in full and/or assess additional charges for the expenses incident to such delay.
4. Termination.
In the absence of a written agreement between Buyer and Seller expressing different terms and conditions as to termination, any order accepted by Seller may be terminated prior to completion by Buyer only
upon written notice to Seller and payment of Seller’s termination charges. If notice of termination is received by Seller after Seller has committed to buy the principal components for any order, termination charges
shall include all direct and indirect costs incurred by Seller and the total profit anticipated by Seller. Additionally, Buyer’s instruction to Seller to stop work for thirty (30) days during the time specified for performance
in any order may be construed by Seller as the equivalent of written notice of termination from Buyer and previous stipulations will be in effect.
5. Taxes.
Unless expressly stated, Seller's prices do not include sales, use, excise or similar taxes, which Seller may be required to pay in filling Buyer's order. The amount of any applicable tax shall be paid by Buyer as
an additional charge unless specifically included in any order accepted by Seller, or in lieu thereof, Buyer shall provide Seller with a tax exemption certificate acceptable to the taxing authorities.
6. Patents.
Seller shall, at its own expense, defend and save Buyer harmless from the expenses and consequences of any suit or procedure brought against Buyer, based on a claim that the use or sale of goods specified
in any order accepted by Seller constitutes an infringement of any United States letters of patent in existence on the date of any such order; provided Buyer promptly notifies Seller in writing of such claim and gives
the necessary authorization, information and assistance for the defense of such a claim.
7. Changes.
Seller, and Seller's suppliers, may, at any time, without notice to Buyer, make changes (whether in design, materials, the addition of improvements, or otherwise) in any goods specified in any order accepted
by Seller without incurring any obligation of any kind as a result thereof, but only to the extent that such change does not cause the goods specified to fail to meet Buyer's requirements. Buyer may, in its order,
provide for changes in its requirements with provision for a corresponding equitable change in the price, if any; but in no instance shall Buyer make changes, which are substantially different from the scope of the
original order accepted by Seller.
8. Export Sales.
In the event the goods and services specified in any order accepted by Seller are for export, the Buyer shall be responsible for securing export, import and other licenses or authorizations as may be required.
The conditions specified in this Section apply to all export transactions. This transaction is only for the sale of the equipment requested and detailed in this Quotation. Not included is any startup assistance, field-
testing, training or any other services that might be required on site. Also not included is any installation, installation audits, sea trials (if applicable), or installation materials. To ensure proper application,
installation, and warranty integrity, Buyer is encouraged to contact the applicable Caterpillar Dealer for these services. The costs of these services are not included in the sale price nor will Seller be responsible for
any such related costs.
9. Permits for Equipment Design, Installation and Operation.
As a supplier of equipment, disclaims responsibility for any and all permits or licenses necessary to design, install and operate the equipment due to zoning, air quality, environmental, safety, building or
construction codes or use permits pertaining to Buyer’s particular application of such equipment or any similar type of permit. Special attention should be given to the requirements of local air district rules and
California Air Resources Board (CARB) regulations pertaining to permit requirements. Seller is quoting on equipment based on the specifications set forth in this Quotation. If additional equipment or engine
modifications are required beyond the specifications, such as additional equipment required for compliance by a local air district or CARB, those items are not included and are the responsibility of Buyer. For
example, South Coast AQMD (SCAQMD) Rule 1470 may require controls and limits on particulate matter, especially when the engine installation is within 100-meters from a school, or within 50 meters of a sensitive
receptor (defined in Rule 1470). Ultra low sulfur fuel is required for particulate filters. CARB Diesel Fuel, or other CARB-approved alternative fuel, is also required for compression ignition (CI) engines operated in
California. When indicated in the bill of materials, the proposed equipment may be SCAQMD pre-approved as Certified Equipment. This certification does not eliminate the permit process or responsibility of others
to obtain a permit. Procurement of certified equipment assures permitability, reduces the permit processing fees and reduces the time necessary to obtain the permit through SCAQMD.
10. Start-up, Commissioning and Operating Requirements.
Equipment provided in this Quotation may require start-up and commissioning, including inspection(s), to ensure the equipment is installed in accordance with manufacturer(s)’s recommendations and
specifications. If Seller has commissioned the equipment, Buyer agrees not to modify the design or components of the installation such that the modifications would violate any legal requirements of the installation,
or would cause the installation to deviate from manufacturer(s)’s recommendations and specifications. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to products sold to Buyer in connection with this Quotation,
Buyer shall have the sole responsibility to ensure the products are properly installed, operated and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer(s)’s recommendations and specifications, and to determine and

Buyer shall furnish to Seller, at no cost, suitable working space, storage space, adequate heat, telephone, light, ventilation, regulated electric power and outlets for testing purposes (if applicable). The facilities
shall be within a reasonable distance from where any applicable services are to be provided. Seller and its representatives shall have full and free access to the equipment in order to provide any applicable
services. Buyer shall provide the means to shut-off and secure electric power to the equipment and provide safe working conditions. Buyer shall not require Seller or its employees, as a condition to site access or
otherwise, to further agree or enter into any agreement, which waives, releases, indemnifies or otherwise limits or expands any rights or obligation whatsoever. Any such agreements shall be null and void. Seller is
under no obligation to remove or dispose of parts or equipment unless specifically agreed upon in Seller’s scope of work. Seller-removed parts become the property of Seller. Seller must not perform any electrical
power switching unless specifically requested by Buyer, under the supervision of Buyer, and subject to procedures jointly agreed to in advance. Notwithstanding Buyer’s request, Seller may refuse to perform power
switching, if in the opinion of Seller, such action would be unsafe. IN THE EVENT THAT SELLER PERFORMS POWER SWITCHING, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BUYER SHALL
INDEMNIFY, DEFEND, AND HOLD SELLER HARMLESS FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, ACTIONS, SUITS, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, DAMAGES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES (“LOSSES”) ARISING OUT OF OR IN
ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RESULTING FROM SELLER’S PERFORMANCE OF POWER SWITCHING, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LOSSES RESULT FROM SELLER’S NEGLIGENCE
(WHETHER ACTION OR PASSIVE, AND WHETHER SOLE, JOINT, OR CONCURRENT), AND EVEN THOUGH CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY A PRE-EXISTING DEFECT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR
OTHER LEGAL FAULT OF SELLER. THIS INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OR NEGLIGENT CONDUCT, WHETHER ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, ON THE PART OF EITHER SELLER OR
BUYER. If OSHA or any other federal, state or local government, trade association, or contractual regulations or standards require a “safety person” to be on site during the performance of services, or in the event
of a trade union jurisdictional dispute where trade union represented personnel are required to assist or stand by during the performance of services by Seller, Buyer shall be responsible for providing for and paying
for any charge or wages for such person(s), as applicable. Buyer shall immediately inform Seller, in writing, at the time of order placement and thereafter, of any unsafe or hazardous substance or condition at the
site, including, but not limited to, the presence of asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, and shall provide Seller with any applicable Material Data Safety Sheets regarding the same. Any losses, costs,
damages, claims and expenses incurred by Seller as a result of Buyer’s failure to advise Seller shall be borne by Buyer. Seller, in its sole discretion and without cost or penalty, reserves the right to cancel its
performance under this Agreement or any order immediately upon written notice to Buyer following Seller's discovery of unsafe or hazardous site substance or condition or any other circumstance altering Seller
performance of Services. Buyer shall appoint a representative familiar with the site and the nature of the Services to be performed by Seller to be accessible at all times that Seller personnel are at the site. Seller
shall not be liable for any expenses incurred by Buyer in removing, replacing or refurbishing any Buyer equipment or any part of Buyer’s building structure that restricts Seller's access. Buyer's personnel shall
cooperate with and provide all necessary assistance to Seller. Seller shall not be liable or responsible for any work performed by Buyer.
