W A T E R E N E R G Y L I F E <br />RIVERSIDE PUBLIC UTILITIES <br />• ' Board Memorandum <br />P U B L I C U T I L I T I E S <br />BOARD OF PUBLIC UTILITIES <br />DATE: JUNE 22, 2020 <br />ITEM NO: 2 <br />SUBJECT: SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH CORMETECH, INC. FOR CARBON MONOXIDE <br />CATALYST REPLACEMENTS ON RIVERSIDE ENERGY RESOURCE CENTER <br />UNITS 3 AND 4 IN AN AMOUNT OF $561,195; AND WORK ORDER NO. 2027437 <br />FOR RIVERSIDE ENERGY RESOURCE CENTER UNITS 3 AND 4 CARBON <br />MONOXIDE CATALYST PROJECT IN A TOTAL AMOUNT OF $633,000 <br />ISSUES: <br />Approve a service agreement with Cormetech, Inc., of Durham, North Carolina, for Carbon Monoxide <br />Catalyst Replacements on Riverside Energy Resource Center Units 3 and 4 in an amount of $561,195 <br />and approve Work Order No. 2027437 for the Riverside Energy Resource Center Carbon Monoxide <br />Catalyst Project in a total amount of $633,000. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS: <br />That the Board of Public Utilities: <br />1. Approve a service agreement with Cormetech, Inc., of Durham, North Carolina, for Carbon <br />Monoxide catalyst replacement at Riverside Energy Resource Center Units 3 and 4 in an amount <br />of $561,195; <br />2. Approve Work Order No. 2027437 for the Riverside Energy Resource Center Catalyst Projects in <br />a total amount of $633,000; and <br />3. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the service agreements with Cormetech, Inc. <br />including the ability to make non -substantial changes. <br />BACKGROUND: <br />Since their commissioning in June 2011, the Riverside Energy Resource Center Units 3 and 4 (RERC 3 <br />& 4) have reliably produced 96 megawatts of electricity a year, helping Riverside Public Utilities (RPU) <br />meet Riverside's energy needs. Each unit operates in compliance with the United States Environmental <br />Protection Agency (EPA) and South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) operational and <br />air quality regulations. Two of the most stringent operating permit limitations are the emission <br />concentration levels of Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Nitrogen Oxide (NOx). Hourly CO concentration <br />emissions levels must average less than 4 parts per million (ppm), and NOx emissions hourly averages <br />must be below 2.3 ppm. <br />Reducing the plant's CO and NOx air emissions to these microscopic levels are achieved in two separate <br />stages. The first stage consists of 80 CO catalyst modules that have platinum and other precious metals <br />in their composition. The modules are integral to each gas turbine and react with the raw emissions to <br />
