Homer Trunk Line -
Final Homer Project update for 2013:
ENSTAR's contractor crews are finishing up the last few service line and main tie-ins for the
2013 construction season. ENSTAR has been busy doing Engineering and Permitting work for
2014. ENSTAR anticipates getting an early start on installing the gas main out on the Homer
Spit. Contractor crews will start the Homer spit work in January 2014 and work weather
permitting. Our goal is be done with the gas main installation on the Homer Spit prior to the
busy 2014 tourist season. Work on Kachemak Drive, East Hill,West Hill and Skyline Drive and
the surrounding subdivisions will start in May 2014.
ENSTAR and its contractors would like to thank everyone in Homer and Kachemak City for
their patience and cooperation this past year.Together we've installed 65 miles of gas main
(-4
and 800 service lines.Currently, over 400 businesses and residences are enjoying the benefits
of using natural gas.Thanks again and Happy Holidays!

Expansion Background
Founded in 1961 as a natural gas distribution company, ENSTAR Natural Gas
Company serves approximately 350,000 customers through: 3,200 miles of distribution
and transmission main, 115,000 service lines, and 134,000 meters. As the only natural
gas distribution company in Southcentral Alaska, ENSTAR has historically relied on
natural gas discovered by producers in the Cook Inlet. Expansion to new areas, such as
the City of Homer and Kachemak City allows ENSTAR to bring a safe, clean, and
reliable energy to thousands of additional Alaskans while reducing their energy costs by
more than half.

2)City of Homer Distribution System
The City of Homer is working through a public process to create a Homer Special
Assessment District (HSAD). This process would approve the funding for the city's
distribution system and allow the City to contract with ENSTAR for its construction. The
build-out is structured in two phases with the first phase constructed in 2013 and the
second in 2014. For more information on how the HSAD proposal would work please

Surcharge
A surcharge is a temporary cost recovery mechanism that ENSTAR uses to assist area
residents in paying for the cost of bringing natural gas to a new service area.
Construction costs for the Homer trunk line are estimated to be $10.5 million. The State
of Alaska's grant amount of$8.15 million reduces the cost to Homer area residents to
$2.35 million (assuming the project% actual cost is$10.5 million). Consistent with
ENSTAR policies and practices approved by the RCA, the difference of approximately
$2.35 million is passed on to customers of the new service area who receive natural gas
through a $1 per thousand cubic feet(Mcf) surcharge, This allows the cost of delivery to
be distributed over a period of time rather than area residents having to pay the full cost
up front in order to receive natural gas.
The duration of the surcharge is dependent on how quickly gas is consumed. Therefore,
the earlier customers sign up and start consuming gas, the sooner the balance will be
paid and a surcharge will no longer be necessary.
All parcels below the solid green line will be assessed the $1 per Mcf surcharge.

how the surcharge works
q
Natural Gas Trucking
Many sources of natural gas are shut-in and abandoned because the economics simply do not
justify their development. In some cases,access to public transmission lines may be limited by
distance or local geography. in other cases, the need for additional processing to bring the gas
up to pipeline quality standards may be a factor.While many industrial applications can utilize
gas that does not meet these strict standards, the distance to the nearest such industrial
consumer may not justify the cost of laying a direct pipeline. In such cases, transporting the gas
by truck may provide a solution.
Natural gas in volumes as low as 500,000 cubic feet per day can be moved economically by
truck within a 60-mile radius of the source.The typical system built by Tucker Gas Processing
Equipment, Inc. is designed to handle twice that much. (Depending on a number of variables,
the transport of two to three million cubic feet per day is possible).

In our system, the gas first passes through a compression and dehydration station.After
odorization,the gas is metered and loaded under pressure onto tube trailers.When the trailers
arrive at the customer site, the gas is unloaded through a delivery terminal(provided by TGPE)
where the pressure is reduced and controlled to meet the customers requirements.
Trucking natural gas can offer several benefits. Gas reserves that once lay stranded or
undeveloped begin to generate a revenue stream. Since the gas does not enter the public
transmission lines, processing costs may be reduced. Depending on the actual gas analysis and
customer requirements,additional processing may not even be necessary. Because the gas is
being sold directly for industrial use,attractive pricing packages can be offered to prospective
buyers.
if you have a source of natural gas that holds untapped potential,we invite you to contact us by
phone or e-mail

Meeting Date: March 19, 2014 a 95
c,,
To: Port and Commerce Advisory Board q�sKP
Tabled by the Body on 2-19-2014
From: Mack Funk, Seward Harbormaster
Agenda Item: RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVE AN
ENGINEERING CONTRACT FOR THE FINAL DESIGN OF A 1.5 TON
PUBLIC CRANE ON THE TRAVEL LIFT DOCK BULKHEAD AND
APPROPRIATING FUNDS.
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION: A new public crane would be useful to many boaters
including charter fishing operators, private vessel owners and especially commercial fishermen.
Ideally,after an operator is trained and checked out by the Harbor,the crane would be operated by a
computerized card in order: to allow 24 hour a day operation,to manage the use of the crane and to
keep track to time used for billing charges. The crane would allow Seward fishermen to load gear
and unload fish. By giving individual fishermen the ability to unload their product it could result in
higher ex-vessel prices in Seward.
In 2013,the City contracted with Moffatt and Nichol,who recently completed a preliminary
design report that looked at different sized cranes at two different locations in the northwesterly
sector of the harbor. Based on available funds, members of PACAB recommend that the City
Council approve a final design engineering contract for a new 1.5-ton crane on the Travel Lift Dock
Bulkhead. The bulkhead is approximately 65 feet long so vessels up to that length would not
interfere with boat lift operations.
Moffatt & Nichol would be the best engineering firm for the job based on their worldwide
expertise and knowledge of this specific project.
INTENT: The purpose of Resolution 2014- Olis to recommend to the City Council to appropriate
funds to complete the final design of a public crane on the Travel Lift Dock Bulkhead.
CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST: Yes No N/A
Comprehensive Plan (document source here): Encourage a thriving port
1. of Seward through harbor improvements, infrastructure expansion, and X
implementation of management plans. (page 23)
Strategic Plan (document source here): Adjust local development
2. regulations where appropriate, to encourage development that is X
consistent with our economic vision. (Page 5)
3. Other(list):
12
FISCAL NOTE: The engineer's not to exceed cost estimate to perform the work is $43,746 to
cover both design ($27,408) and bid services and construction management ($16,338).
A recent federal grant application to fund this project was turned down. Also, the State of Alaska
determined that this project was not eligible for a Harbor Matching fund grant. The City Council
approved$300,000 in the 2014 Capital Improvement Plan for this project. The Harbor Department
will charge the work to the Contracted Services Account 401-4360-5390, but since the budget for
this line item is$43,000,if the project is to continue beyond the design stage another source of funds
will be needed.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve PACAB Resolution 2014-Krecommending that the City Council authorize and fund the
final design of a new 1.5-ton crane on the Travel Lift Dock Bulkhead.
CITY OF SEWARD
PUBLIC USE CRANE INSTALLATION
ATTACHMENT A—SCOPE OF SERVICES (Rev.01)
A. INTRODUCTION
Seward Harbor currently has no public crane access. The local cannery, Seward Fisheries has a
privately owned crane on T-dock which is not available to the Public. Commercial fishermen
and others currently park boom trucks on the deck of existing timber piers to load/unload gear
and fish: an approach that works, but which can be awkward and dangerous. In 2012, a fatal
accident occurred when a boom truck loading fishing gear tipped,throwing the operator off T
Dock. A permanently-mounted Public crane would provide a safer, more stable and user-
friendly method of loading and unloading vessels by qualified users.
The City of Seward (City) is considering the installation of a crane on the Travel-lift Dock
bulkhead structure. Under direction from the Seward Harbormaster, Moffatt&Nichol (M&N)
performed preliminary design calculations, estimated construction costs, and developed
preliminary design drawings for each of two alternative sites. This work was summarized by
M&N in the Public Use Crane Preliminary Design Report issued October 10,2013.
The City subsequently contacted M&N to advise they had accepted the referenced Preliminary
Design Report and solicited a proposal from M&N for the Procurement, Design and
Construction Phase Services for a 1.5-ton crane at the Travel-lift Dock bulkhead.
B. SCOPE OF SERVICES
Work will be broken into the following tasks:
Task 1: Project Management
Project management activities will include, but not be limited to:
a. Team Coordination and Subconsultant Management. Facilitate and direct coordination, and
collect and convey information between the City, members of the design team and
subconsultant(s).
b. Meetings. Schedule and organize project coordination meetings, and produce and distribute
meeting notes.
c. Progress Communication. Provide the City with monthly reports accompanying project
invoices, documenting design (and later, fabrication and installation)progress, anticipated
work in the next period, and any special concerns or needs.
Attachment A—Scope of Services(Rev.01)
Page 1 of 6
d. Change Management(e.g., scope, project cost and schedule). Address and document
changes to project scope, schedule and/or budget.
e. Invoicing Support. Prepare and issue monthly progress invoices, backup and explanation in
a format suitable to the City.
Task 2: Environmental Permitting
M&N will support the City to complete the applications necessary to obtain all required
Municipal, State and Federal permits for in-water construction and the associated crane
installation. Specific tasks will include:
a. Complete and submit to the City all permit drawings (Draft and Final formats) needed to
support the City's applications for all permits.
b. Assist the City with responses to any questions that the regulatory agencies may have about
the project during the permit application review process.
The City will conduct all communications and negotiations with regulatory agencies and local
departments, will submit all final permit applications on to the applicable agencies, and will pay
any required local permit fees.
Preliminary coordination by the City determined that permits/approvals from the Department of
Fish and Game or the Department of Natural Resources will not be required. A separate
Department of Environmental Conservation Section 401 Water Quality Certification is not
anticipated as the project does not result in"discharge into waters of the United States." A
straightforward, noncontroversial permitting process is anticipated, and it is understood that the
following permits will be required:
• U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) Section 10 Permit for in-water work. A Nationwide
Permit (NWP) is anticipated in this case, as the proposed work refers to relatively minor
modifications of existing dock facilities. If during preliminary coordination with the Corps, a
NWP permit is not deemed appropriate, a Corps Letter of Permission or Individual Permit
may be necessary. This could add more time to the permitting schedule, however, the same
permit application is required for submittal to the Corps.
• City permits for local structural and electrical systems (e.g. building and dig permits, City
Fire Marshall review.)
Task 3: Design & Bid Documents
The project will be developed into two (2) separate bid packages: Procurement and Installation,
as follows:
Attachment A—Scope of Services(Rev.01)
Page 2 of 6
a. Procurement Contract. M&N will prepare a performance specification and a bid package for
the supply and delivery of a suitable 1.5-ton crane and all fittings and appurtenances to
Seward, to be subsequently installed by a qualified structural/marine contractor as "Owner-
supplied" equipment. Draft and bid-ready Final documents will be submitted to the City in
electronic (PDF) format, accompanied by an estimate of equipment cost(F.O.B. Seward.)
b. Installation Contract. M&N will design and prepare a set of plans with structural notes
suitable to install the crane and make fender modifications in order to install a 1.5-ton crane
along the Travel-lift dock bulkhead. Crane electrical power requirements and transformer
connection location will be identified. Review documents will be submitted at 65- and 95-
percent design, in addition to bid-ready Final documents in electronic (PDF) format. An
Opinion of Probable Construction Cost(OPCC)will be submitted with each review package
and accompanying the Final bod documents, including contingencies appropriate to the level
of design development.
Task 4: Bid Phase Services
M&N will assist the City for the duration of bidding for: (a) Procurement Contract and (b)
Installation Contract, including:
• Prepare and issue responses to Requests for Information (RFI)by bid addendum for both the
Procurement and Installation contracts. Up to two (2) addenda have been estimated for each
contract.
• Review the Procurement and Installation bids when received, for completeness and apparent
bid unbalancing, and provide the City with bid tabulation and a Recommendations to Award.
The City will advertise and pay the cost of advertisement for both contracts. It is expected that
the City will post bid-ready documents and addenda(if any) on their procurement website for
available bidders.
Task 5: Construction Phase Services
Construction phase services include periodic site inspection and office support, as follows:
a. M&N will conduct up to three (3)periodic visual inspections with the installation contractor
at the work site in Seward. Photographs will be taken and brief written reports prepared and
issued highlighting construction progress, issues reported by the City or contractor, and any
visibly apparent or reported deviations from the work.
Attachment A—Scope of Services(Rev.01)
Page 3 of 6

b. The Engineer of Record for M&N will perform an operational (a.k.a. "switch on") inspection
in conjunction vvit6theCitvnndcranemuoufacturerupnoconuple{ionof1hc }nobdladon
Contract.
c. M&N will provide office support as follows:
i. Review all contractually required submittals: proposed effort assumes that no more than
three (3) of the submittals are rejected for resubmission and, from among those rejected,
none require more than one resubmission.
ii. Prepare and issue Design Clarification/Verification Requests (DCVR)and Substitution
Requests, as needed: up to five (5) contractor requests have been estimated.
iii. Establish a project aocnuotaud directory using NewForma Project Center TM for the
purpose of logging, managing and responding to contractor submittals.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)
Included in the above tasks is an appropriate level of QA/QC, performed to our industry's
standard of care, by M&N senior staff and other members of the design team. QA/QC for the
project shall include checking and reviewing work for consistency with that of other members of
the design team to deliver a coordinated set of bid documents for construction. Typical QA/QC
tasks include:
• Integrity Check. The design checker is responsible for verifying the adequacy of the main
elements of the work. Verification will consist of independent calculations or a thorough
review of the designer's calculations of all designed elements and systems.
• Plan Check. The checker performs a thorough review of the plans to confirm that sufficient
detail has been provided and that the plans accurately reflect the results of the design
calculations (e.g., that m jor controlling geometry, elevations and dimensions are checked.)
Final quantities and specifications are reviewed.
• Constructability Check. A review of the plans is performed to confirm that the design is
constructible and that details and notes to the contractor are consistent and clear.
Additional Services (NOT IN SCOPE)
The following optional services are NOT IN SCOPE and have not been priced at this time but
may be added by Contract Amendment at the City's request:
a. Design of electrical transformation for crane power. It is assumed that adequate power exists
at the site, requiring connection to a nearby existing power transformer.
Attachment A—Scope of Services(Rev.Ot)

b. Crane electrical power and controls revi and permit and code compliance for electrical
installation (conducted by City Electrical Department.)
c. Bid advertisement and distribution of bid documents (both conducted by Ci .)
d. Resident Construction Observation.
e. Warranty Inspection.
f. Other services not explicitly identified above.
C. PROJECT SCHEDULE
It is assumed the City will provide M&N a Notice to Proceed (NTP)no later than March 11,
2014. The City desires that crane installation be completed by December 31, 2014. The
following deliverable schedule (i.e., weeks following NTP) is targeted:
a. Procurement Contract(Draft): 4 weeks
b. Procurement Contract(Final): 8 weeks
c. Installation Contract (65-percent): 16 weeks
d. Installation Contract(95-percent): 22 weeks
c. Installation Contract(Final): 26 weeks
Notes:
1. The schedule above assumes two (2) weeks for City review of each draft deliverable (i.e.,
Items a, c and d above) summarized in a single set of annotated review comments.
Z. Cranes are built to specification. It is anticipated that delivery of the Owner-supplied crane
to Seward will require between 20 and 24 weeks from award of the Procurement contract.
The Installation Contract will be scheduled accordingly.
D. EXPECTED MEETINGS & PRESENTATIONS
M&N will meet informally with the Harbormaster during all planned site visits during project
construction.
M&N will give brief verbal updates to the Port and Commerce Advisory Board (PACAB) and/or
City Council, at the City's discretion, in conjunction with one or more of the planned site visits.
