RIVERSIDE PUBLIC UTILITIES <br /> R I t T , T , s Board Memorandum <br /> BOARD OF PUBLIC UTILITIES DATE: June 18, 2010 <br /> ITEM NO: 5 <br /> SUBJECT: LIGHT EMITTING DIODE (LED) STREETLIGHT DEMONSTRATION PROJECT <br /> WORK ORDER NO. 0916504 <br /> ISSUE: <br /> Board of Public Utilities approval is requested for Work Order No. 0916504, <br /> RECOMMENDATIONS: <br /> That the Board of Public Utilities approve Work Order No. 0916504 for the estimated capital expenditure <br /> of $109,978.40 to install 14 LED technology streetlights as a demonstration project on Overlook <br /> Parkway. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> Riverside Public Utilities (RPU) Energy Delivery Staff has been researching Light Emitting Diode (LED) <br /> technology as an energy saving program for the City's Street Lighting system. Although LED technology <br /> is used in a number of lighting applications, it has not been able to meet roadway lighting requirements <br /> for the streetlight industry until recently. Like many utilities, RPU is testing LED's on their roadways, in a <br /> number of scenarios, to evaluate their performance. On April 3, 2009, the Board of Public Utilities <br /> approved $52,000 of funding from Electric Utility Public Benefit funds to test LED luminaries. The <br /> proposed project is along Overlook Parkway in an area of reverse-frontage and streetlights were not <br /> installed. This original estimate only covered the cost to purchase the LED fixtures and the engineering <br /> expense. Additional funds will be required to install the concrete light standards. The total capital <br /> expenditure for the Overlook Parkway project is estimated to be $161,978.40 which includes design, <br /> construction, materials, contingencies, construction management and inspection. <br /> The engineering for this project was performed by RPU staff. Construction of the Overlook project will be <br /> performed by a contractor through the Energy Delivery Contractor's Panel, <br /> FISCAL IMPACT: <br /> Funds for the Overlook Parkway project are budgeted and available in the Neighborhood Street Light <br /> Retrofit Account No. 6130000-470638 in the amount of$109,978.40. <br /> Prepared by: Stephen H. Badgett, Public Utilities Deputy General Manager/Energy Delivery <br /> Approved by: David H. Wright, Public Utilities General Manager <br /> Approved by: Belinda J. Graham, Assistant City Manager <br /> Approved as to form: Gregory P. Priamos, City Attorney <br />
