" " " " AGENDA ITEM NO. 2 " " " " RIVERS" COUNTY TRANSPORTATION OMMISSION June 13, 1990 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Marilyn Williams, Staff Analyst III THROUGH: Jack Reagan, Executive Director SUBJECT: Graphic Design/Public Relations Qualified Consultant List Due to the development of various Measure A programs and increasing demand for related informational brochures and materials, there is a need for services available from various types of graphic design and public relations consultants. The Commission has an opportunity to establish an identity for itself and to provide the general public and the public and private agencies with which it works with good quality and informative periodic materials such as annual reports, brochures, newsletters, etc. Part of forming a highly visible identity for the Commission is designing graphic I.D.'s for the various Measure A highway improvement, transit, rideshare, and rail projects. The purpose of these identity's is to create a distinct theme for each type of project so that citizens can easily recognize and associate the project to the Commission and to their Measure A tax dollars at work for them. Commission staff is preparing to develop several types of communication materials for an on -going newspaper column, rideshare marketing project and park-n-ride lots which require design development in various formats. As these will be the first materials produced relating to Measure A projects it makes sense to establish quality themes that will communicate action and progress to the general public over the next twenty years. Repetitive use of I.D.'s has been proven to be extremely valuable to an organization's efforts to increase awareness of its programs. The need for various types of graphic/public relations services can vary from project to project due to differing characteristics and budget limitations. It would be difficult to follow the Request For Proposal (RFP) process for each project under the limited time normally available to develop and produce the desired printed materials. In order to provide staff with some flexibility in obtaining consultant service needed for the various types of projects and materials, we are proposing that a list of qualified graphic/public relations consultants be pre -approved by the Commission. Consultants from this list would be interviewed by staff to review their approach and work samples, and evaluate their experience and suitability for the job. The consultants would then be required to prepare a written quote for the project detailing tasks, product, completion date AMNDA I'171'4 # 4F JUNF 13, 1990 " " " and cost. Based on cost and expertise, a consultant would be selected and awarded the project by staff. A total of $70,000 was included in the FY 90/91 Commission budget for these types of consultant services. Staff has been in the process of identifying consultants who have performed graphic/public relations services for transportation oriented agencies (CTS, OCTD, & RTA). Included in the search were local governmental agencies (City and County of Riverside) who have used consultants based in the county. The following firms come with a recommendation from the contacted agency: IPL Marketing Design 4319 E.

MW:sc " " " " AGENDA ITEM NO. 3 " " " RIVERS COUNTY TRANSPORTATIOOCOMMISSION June 13, 1990 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Jack Reagan, Executive Director SUBJECT: D.J. Smith Contract Renewal Attached is the proposed contract renewal with D.J. Smith. In light of D.J.'s record of support and success representing RCTC's interests in Sacramento, I strongly believe that renewal of the contract is justified. The contract reflects a proposed 10% increase in both the monthly retainer ($3,000 to $3,300) and hourly rate ($100 to $110). This is the first such adjustment since December 1988 and is warranted based upon general cost increases and the growing demand for D.J.'s services throughout California. The approved FY 1990-91 budget reflects the adjusted rates for D.J.'s services, and no additional budget adjustments are required. BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Budget and Finance Committee recommendation will be presented at the Commission meeting. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: RCTC should approve the D.J. Smith contract renewal as proposed. JR:sc attachment AGENDA ITEM #6 JUNE 13, 1990 " i " " " AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of the date hereinafter specified between D.J.

COMMISSION June 13, 1990 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Mark T. Massman, Measure A Project Manager Mike Limbaugh, Measure A Project Coordinator THROUGH: Jack Reagan, Executive Director SUBJECT: Cost Sharing Agreement with the City of Corona for Construction of the Promenade Overcrossing on Route 91. At its meeting of August 2, 1989 the Riverside County Transportation Commission approved, in concept, the expenditure of Route 91 Measure A funds to supplement City of Corona funding for the construction of an Overcrossing on Route 91 at Promenade. The additional Measure A funding would cover that portion of the construction expense necessary for the Promenade Overcrossing to accommodate the Measure A project for the addition of two lanes on Route 91. The balance of construction costs not attributable to accommodation of the Measure A project will be borne by the City of Corona. This action will avoid future significant cost to the Measure A program by eliminating the need for future reconstruction of the overcrossing. The final design for the Overcrossing will be completed and submitted to Caltrans within the next month. The sharing formula for construction costs between the Commission and City of Corona will be based solely on the increase in the bridge deck area needed to accommodate the Route 91 widening. This percentage will be applied only to the bridge construction items. The current estimate for the bridge item construction work is $1,240,000. The shared cosi values will be calculated on the actual bid amounts from the final construction contract. The original Overcrossing proposed was to be 248 feet in length and 60 feet in width, comprising a total deck area of 16,898 square feet. The Overcrossing to be constructed for accommodation of the Measure A Route 91 widening will be 275 feet long and 60 feet wide for a total deck area of 18,700 square feet. Thus, the increase in deck area is ten (10) percent. AGENDA ITEM #12AA JUNE 13, 1990 " 0 Page Two June 13, 1990 Cost Sharing Agreement with the City of Corona for Construction of the Promenade Overcrossing on Route 91 Based upon this figure the recommended funding split for the Promenade Overcrossing is 90% for the City of Corona and 10% for the Commission. The Commission's share will be allocated from Measure A Western County Highway Improvement funds for Route 91 and will be approximately $ 130,000. The City of Corona has agreed in concept to the proposed cost sharing arrangement. Attached is the draft cooperative agreement. BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE The cost sharing agreement will be reviewed by the Budget and Finance Committee prior to the Commission meeting. Any comments made by the Committee will be reported at the Commission meeting. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Commission approve the cost sharing agreement.

Massman, Measure A Project Manager THROUGH: Jack Reagan, Executive Director SUBJECT: Amendment to Memorandum of Understanding with the City of Corona to Establish a Cost Sharing Agreement for Construction of the Smith, Maple, and Lincoln Overcrossings on Route 91 At its July 12, 1989 meeting the Riverside County Transportation Commission approved a Memorandum of Understanding with the City of Corona for the Smith, Lincoln, and Maple Overcrossings. As stipulated in this MOU, the City and RCTC are to mutually agree on the cost sharing determination for this project. The project will be financed using Measure A funds supplemented by potential State monies applied for under Senate Bill 140. The Measure A funds for the project will come from three different programs: 1) Western County Highway funds; 2) the Western County Highway interchange improvement monies, and; 3) the City of Corona's Measure A Local Streets and Roads funds. In determining the cost share split between the City and ROTC a hypothetical project (replacement of existing facility, with longer bridge) was compared to the actual project (replacement of existing facility with wider and longer bridge). The results of this analysis show the funding split, based on the final design of the actual project, are as follows. The City of Corona's share is 33 %, to be funded with interchange improvement funds and local streets and roads monies. The RCTC's share is 67 %, to be financed with Western County Highway improvement funds. The current cost estimate for the total project is $14,605,000. Based upon the above cost sharing formula RCTC's portion of project expenses would be $9,785,000, with the City paying the $4,805,000 balance. The total estimated project cost includes 10% contingency for construction. The amounts to be paid for this project will be based on actual costs to the project. The cost sharing between the Interchange Improvement Program(IIP) and the Local Streets and Roads program will be determined once the IIP policy is adopted.

If the split is acceptable to both the City and ROTC an amendment to the MOU will be executed. A draft copy of this amendment is included with this agenda item for your review. BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION The Budget and Finance Committee will review this item prior to the meeting and staff will report on any Committee comments. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the proposed cost sharing. The increased cost is a result of additional detailed work to be performed. ROTC Staff and Bechtel have reviewed the cost sharing analysis and feel that it fairly represents the required effort and funding source identification. 411 MM/ML:sc i " " " " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING AMENDMENT NO. 1 WITH THE CITY OF CORONA FOR INTERCHANGE/OVERCROSSING FUNDING ASSISTANCE This amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) defines the Project funding percentage to be used in the execution of the agreement. WHEREAS, pursuant to the MOU entered into between the City and ROTC, the cost sharing arrangement between the parties for the PROJECT was determined in accordance with the policy established in the MOU dated July 19, 1989 between the City and RCTC, and; WHEREAS, the City will fund thirty-three percent (33%) of the PROJECT as defined in the agreement, and; WHEREAS, RCTC will fund sixty-seven percent (67%) of the PROJECT as defined in the agreement.

I agree with the 33% City, 67% Riverside County Transportation Commission cost sharing proposal. It is my understanding that this cost sharing proposal pro- vides that the City pay, as part of its share, 100% of the cost of the Smith Avenue storm drain from an upstream connec- tion at Pleasant View Avenue to an outlet at an existing storm drain in Maple Street. With the exception of the por- tion under the freeway, this storm drain will be built under a separate contract utilizing an amount of the 33% local sharing for funding. At some future date a determination will be made as what por- tion of the 33% of the local share will be reimbursed from the interchange improvement program, which we have applied for. i Your recommendation to commence repayment of the City's local share in 1995 is appreciated. This will allow the City to complete the five-year capital improvement program which was recently transmitted to your office. " " " Jack Reagan - R.C.T.C.

Werle, Senior Staff Analyst THROUGH: Jack Reagan, Executive Director SUBJECT: CONTRACT FOR SERVICES WITH HINDERLITER, de LLAMAS The Commission has an approved Memorandum of Understanding, (MOU) with the County to use the quarterly sales tax data provided to the County by Hinderliter de Llamas and Associates. We need to have the data summarized for the three geographic areas, (Western County, Coachella Valley, and Palo Verde), of the Measure "A" program. Staff has geocoded the data for those three areas. For a one time charge not to exceed $1,000, Hinderliter de Llamas & Associates will incorporate the geocode data into their database. They will then maintain and update that database and produce quarterly reports sorted and summarized for each of the three areas as part of their agreement with the County, at no additional cost to RCTC. Commission staff will then receive periodic reports on the sales taxes collected in the format necessary to apportion Measure "A" funds among the three County areas. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Executive Director to execute an agreement with Hinderliter, de Llamas & Associates to incorporate the RCTC geocode data into the County Sales Tax database for a one time fee not to exceed $1,000.

Bechtel currently has 10 full time professional and administrative staff located in RCTC's offices. During the 1989/90 Fiscal Year, Bechtel has assisted with scoping, negotiations, contract administration and project management for the following projects: o Route 91 HOV Project Development and Design o Smith, Maple, and Lincoln Overcrossings o Route 91 additional projects o Route 74 widening in Perris o Route 111 Corridor Study o Route 215 Project Development o Cajalco Corridor Study o Measure A Alternatives Analysis o Sanderson Bridge Project In all, some 22 contracts (including MOU's and Cooperative Agreements) have been initiated and approved by the Commission during the fiscal year. In addition, Bechtel has: o Prepared estimates for the Interchange Improvement Program o Revised the Western County Scope and Cost Review o Implemented a Project Cost Tracking System o Assisted with development of the Short Range Financial Plan o Provided environmental support services to Caltrans o Performed right-of-way studies for the 60/91/215 IC Consistent with Commission direction, we are expecting to continue with the projects identified above as well as proceed with project development activities for the Measure A projects on Route 74 and Route 79. AGENDA I1'04 # 12B JTJNE 13, 1990 " " " Page Two June 13, 1990 Bechtel Contract Amendment for the 1990/91 Fiscal Year Included in your agenda package is the proposal Bechtel has submitted to continue to perform project management services for the Measure A program. In response to the PECG vs. Caltrans decision, it is possible that some of the contracts originally intended to be administered by RCTC/Bechtel may be administered by Caltrans. However, I believe Bechtel's services at the proposed level would still be required in order to serve as RCTC's agent in dealing with Caltrans to assure that the work continues to be expedited. Such indirect project monitoring is oftentimes more difficult than direct project management. BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION The recommendations of the Budget and Finance Committee will be presented at the Commission meeting. The $1,250,000. contract amount for the 1990/91 Fiscal Year is included in the 1990/91 budget by $1,250,000. identified for Bechtel services. The $109,000. discretionary amount for Caltrans environmental support is included in the budget under "Caltrans".

Dear Jack: In response to your request, we are pleased to offer the continuing services of Bechtel Corporation to provide Project Development Management Services (PDMS) for the Riverside County Transportation Commission Measure A Transportation Improvement Plan. These additional and continued services are for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1990 and ending June 30, 1991. The total cost of these services for the 1990/91 fiscal year is $1,250,000.00. Due to uncertainty over Caltrans confirmation of the Measure A program direction (approval of the overall program MOU), and at your direction, Bechtel delayed staffing during the 1989/90 fiscal year. We currently estimate that this delay will result in a minimum under expenditure of our 1989/90 budget of $156,000. Of this, approximately $109,000. for Caltrans Environmental support remains unspent. Provision has been made in the contract amendment for Bechtel to provide these support services as an additional service at RCTC direction. Bechtel has completed staffing under the 1989/90 budget plan. Our assumption for the 1990/91 fiscal year is that our current staffing is adequate to achieve the following program goals: 1. Follow through with ongoing project development activities for Route 91, 86, 79 (Sanderson), and 74 (Perris). 2. Follow through on added program activities for Cajalco Corridor, Route 111 Corridor Study, and Route 215, including the portion in San Bernardino County. 3.

" " " AGENDA ITEM NO. 9 RIVERSt COUNTY TRANSPORTAT[ct COMMISSION • June 1 1990 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Marilyn Williams, Staff Analyst III THROUGH: Jack Reagan, Executive Director SUBJECT: Measure A Park-n-Ride Program - Rt. 60 @ Pigeon Pass Rd. The City of Moreno Valley is proposing to build a park-n-ride lot at Rt. 60 and Pigeon Pass Rd. in conjunction with a new on -ramp and commercial development (Home Depot) on the northwest corner of the interchange. Commission staff was contacted by the City to discuss the possible use of Measure A Highway funding for the project. The proposed 2.1 acre parcel (map attached) is owned by Caltrans and offers excellent access to west bound morning traffic heading to Routes 91 and 215. Commission staff has met with the City and Caltrans to define areas of participation. Generally, Caltrans will provide the parcel and oversight services for the design and construction of the entire project. The City has awarded the project design contract and will enter into a cooperative agreement with Caltrans to perform contract administration for the project and will assume responsibility for on -going maintenance. The Commission is requested to fund the design and construction of the lot estimated at $305,935 based on a minimum of 200 spaces (see attached project cost estimate). There is some question concerning a potential riparian habitat on the proposed site which may affect the use and/or layout of the site. The new on -ramp project which is contiguous to the park-n-ride site has cleared the environmental review process and received a "categorical exemption" determination. However, the proposed park-n-ride site was identified in that review as vacant land. Before final approval can be granted, the City of Moreno Valley will have to rgvise the on -ramp project report to include the exact park-n- ride site to determine if the change in scope presents any significant environmental impacts. This is a high priority project for the City and they are making every effort to leverage developer funding. This project allows the Commission to participate in a joint effort to establish a permanent park-n-ride lot along a highly congested section of Route 60. AGFICA #12F JUNE 13, 1990 " " " BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION The Budget and Finance Committee recommendations will be presented at the Commission meeting. STAFF RECOMMENDATION That the Commission approve in concept the use of Measure A Highway or Commuter Services funds in an amount not to exceed $306,000 for the design and construction of a park-n-ride lot at the northwest corner of the Rt. 60/Pigeon pass Rd. interchange in cooperation with Caltrans and the City of Moreno Valley, and direct staff to prepare a formal agreement for Commission action.

We have invited Jack Wyatt and Glen Ducat of the Southern California Edison Company in the technical advisory committee. Because of Southern California Edison's interest in this study, Jack Wyatt has secured a commitment of funding to make up the difference (i.e., $27,000). According to Jack, this is the first time Southern California Edison has made a commitment to rail transportation of this nature for fifty years or more. Even though the dollars are small, from the standpoint of public policy this is a major commitment for Southern California Edison. Subsequent discussions with Morrison-Knudsen related to what else should be done to develop a truly complete Electrification Study would raise the additional price to $40,000 instead of $27,000. The attached May 30, 1990 letter and proposed Revised Scope of Work describes the additions, which in summary are as follows: 1. Expand the study to include electrification of freight, in addition to commuter rail as originally proposed. 2. Extend the electrification study to include Fullerton to Redondo Junction and the Olive Subdivision, to coincide with the added Conventional Commuter Rail Study analysis funded by LACTC/LOSSAN and the City of Irvine. 3. Expand the economic analysis to define the "shortfall" that might be necessary to make up from other than operators funds. Possible sources might be local and/or state rail funds, utilities funding to transportation as a partial offset to alternative stationary source controls, federal grants, etc.. AMNDA 1'1# 13 JUNE 13, 1990 " Page Two June 13, 1990 Riverside -Orange County Commuter Rail Study Electrification Study Jack Wyatt has committed to seek additional funding from Southern California Edison, but it is not certain if he will receive an answer by the June 13, 1990 RCTC meeting date. In order for Morrison-Knudsen to adjust their Electrification Study schedule, it is necessary to act as quickly as possible. BUDGET COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS The Budget Committee will present its recommendations during the June 13, 1990 RCTC meeting. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Based upon the Southern California Edison Company's existing $27,000 commitment, RCTC should approve the expanded scope of work proposed by Morrison-Knudsen. " 2. RCTC should encourage the Southern California Edison Company to increase its commitment from $27,000 to $40,000. 3. In the event the Southern California Edison Company does not agree to the increase, I should be authorized to shop for additional funding from other affected entities (LACTC/LOSSAN, Irvine, ATSF, Southern California Gas, SCAQMD, etc.). 4. Follow-up with formal funding agreements between RCTC and Southern California Edison (and possibly other affected entities) as soon as possible. JR:sc " " " " " MORRISON-KNUDSEN ENGINEERS, INC.

Enclosed please find a draft of the revised scope and estimated consultant costs for Task Group 3. By copy of this letter, I am also sending this draft to both Jack Wyatt and Glenn Ducat for review and comment. The attached work scope is essentially the same as that included in our original proposal. (As you recall, that original scope was reduced in our final consultancy contract in order to transfer some budget to the study of conventional commuter rail.) We have, however, expanded the original scope somewhat to reflect SCE's concerns, and this has accordingly increased the estimated cost from the original proposal amount. The additional scope includes the following: 1. Expansion of the study to include freight traffic. The original proposal addressed only electrification of commuter service, but SCE is interested in electrification of all rail traffic in the Los Angeles basin. Therefore, we have added the incremental study of electrifying the AT&SF freight services, for which we consider the minimum operable segment would extend from Barstow to Hobart. This additional analysis will involve evaluating the existing diesel freight operations and costs, modeling the same operations with electric traction, establishing electrical supply requirements on the extended line, assessing terminal operations, and estimating the additional capital costs of electrification. 2. Extension of commuter rail electrification to Irvine and LAUPT. The original proposal included commuter service only to Fullerton, but the current study now extends to Irvine and Hobart. Electrification of this complete service would be included in the revised work scope. 7626R MORRISON-KNUDSEN ENGINE. INC.

While the original proposal focuses on determination of the optional timing of implementing electrification, it now seems apparent that economically this timing may be beyond the deadline imposed by the Air Quality Plan. Thus we understand the preferred focus is to estimate the economic "shortfall" that would result from converting to electric traction at a predetermined date, so that external funding requirements could be identified. Again, this analysis would be done separately for commuter and freight electrification. We believe these changes reflect SCE's desires, but are prepared to discuss them further with SCE and RCTC. The estimated cost to perform the electrification study as revised is approximately $73,000, as detailed in the attached estimate. This amount compares to approximately $59,000 in our original proposal, or approximately $33,000 in our current contract. If the expanded work scope is adopted, our current schedule for the electrification study will probably need some modification. This task is presently scheduled for completion by mid -July, but with the added work, would require approximately an additional month. However, this should not materially affect the overall study duration, provided an early decision is made to proceed with the additional work. We welcome your comments on the enclosed draft and are prepared to discuss it in more detail if desired. Please contact me if there are any questions. Very truly yours, ___ Willard 0.

Daniels, MKE Jack Wyatt, SCE Glenn Ducat, SCE Carl Schiermeyer, RCTC Encls. 7626R " " " Riverside -Orange County Commuter Rail Study Revised Scope of Work Task Group 3 - Electrification Study May 30, 1990 Objective Electrification of the commuter line offers the potential for faster train service coupled with reduced operating costs through savings in fuel, crew and vehicle maintenance costs. A separate study will be performed to examine the feasibility of electrification of the conven- tional commuter rail service, based on results of and in conjunction with the analysis of Task Group 2. As part of this task, we will also examine the possible additional electrification of the AT&SF lines for freight traffic and will perform a separate analysis of this additional increment. For freight operations, it is assumed that electrification will be required between Barstow and Hobart, as the minimum practical segment for changing motive power. Being one of the leading firms in the U.S. in the design of rail and transit electrification systems, MKE is in a unique position to under- take this analysis. We have performed numerous such studies in the past to aid in the choice between diesel and electric traction for a variety of projects, and have established an analytical approach and design data background that is directly suited to this application. In the electrification study approach, motive power alternatives will first be evaluated to select the most appropriate rolling stock. A power system analysis will then be performed to select the electrifica- tion voltage and develop the power system configuration, including substation locations and ratings and overhead conductor sizes. With the basic criteria defined, conceptual design of the electrification system will be prepared, including any necessary modifications to other system elements such as trackwork, signalling, communications and control, maintenance facility, etc. Upon completion of the conceptual design, cost estimates will be prepared, which will then be used as the basis for comparison with the conventional rail and high-speed commuter rail alternatives, and for comparing diesel and electric freight operations. Task 3.1 - Motive Power and Operations Motive Power An initial task in planning for electrification is the selection of motive power equipment. An electrified passenger service could be operated with locomotive -hauled trainsets or with electric multiple - unit railcars similar to those used in Europe, New York City, or on the Illinois Central and Chicago South Shore and South Bend commute lines in Chicago. Both types of equipment possess performance characteristics - 1 - 7627R " " different from diesel traction. Acceleration, deceleration, and maximum speed, as well as energy consumption, maintenance requirements, and equipment utilization will all be different in an electrified alternative. The choice of motive power equipment for the commuter service depends largely on the implementation timing for electrification. If electrification proves to be justified for initial operation of the commuter service, either type of equipment could be adopted. On the other hand, if initial operation is with diesel locomotives and passenger cars, future conversion to electrification would probably be done by simply replacing the locomotives with electric units. The choice of motive power will be made jointly with RCTC and AT&SF considering the likely timing and comparative costs of equipment. For freight operation, an electric locomotive will be selected, in consultation with AT&SF, which is appropriate for heavy freight service and can replace the existing diesel locomotives without changing the basic train dispatch. Train Operations An analysis of train operations and scheduling is fundamental to the electrification system design, as the movement of the train loads define the electrical supply requirements. The initial step in the electrified operations analysis will be to model the train runs for the selected equipment, again using a computerized simulation model. Since motive power performance characteristics are different for electrified alternatives, it is necessary to model the operations separately from the diesel operation. MKE's train perfor- mance simulation capability is especially adapted to model an electri- fied system, making the study of this alternative more reliable and less time-consuming than a manual analysis. It is anticipated that individual simulations will be performed for a number of different commuter train configurations and operating conditions developed from the operations analysis for the conventional rail. From these simulations, operating schedules will be prepared for each service level scenario, as in Task 2.3 and electrical loading requirements will be; defined for use in the traction power system design. A similar analysis will be performed for the electrified freight operation. The MKE team will also be equipped to assess the interface between an electrified passenger system and AT&SF's diesel freight trains in the event the freight service is not electrified. Since relatively high passenger service frequencies will be needed to justify the capital costs of an electrified system, the electrification alternative may require a separate set of electrified tracks. Consequently, we will specifically evaluate the effects of high -density electrified passenger service on AT&SF freight trains, separately from the analysis of diesel passenger operation. - 2 - 7627R " " Output from the electrified operations analysis will include the following operating parameters: o Optimum train schedules and start -to -stop speeds. o Optimum service levels, including definition of the amount of service that can be operated with a given investment in rolling stock. o An impact analysis of the effects an electrified system would have on the AT&SF diesel freight operation. Task 3.2 - Power System Analysis An initial consideration in the traction power system analysis is the choice of system voltage for the vehicles. A comparative analysis will be made between 12.5, 25, and 50 kV ac power supplies, and standard do supply levels, to determine the most suitable system voltage in light of an overall electrification strategy in the area. This study will evaluate the effects of the alternative traction system voltages on electrification costs such as the overhead contact wire system; the traction power substations and their spacing along the route; the civil modifications needed to overcome any clearance restrictions on the route; and differences in signalling and communications system modifica- tions required for different power supply systems, specifically between ac and do supplies. The study will determine the system voltage level which gives the lowest cost of the combined elements, and will also consider the long-range effects of adjacent lines possibly being electrified, in particular, the Los Angeles -San Diego Corridor and the high-speed rail system between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. In this task, the MKE team will also meet with Southern California Edison, the principal utility that will supply the electrified railroad, to establish criteria and collect data on the primary supply, such as: o Locations and characteristics of existing substations and transmission lines. o Utility loading criteria (generation capacity, short circuit capacity, etc.). o Electrical power and energy rates and related charges. The principal configuration and dimensioning of the traction power system will then be developed in this task. A number of individual studies are involved, which consider the effects of various related factors, such as vehicle performance characteristics, substation locations, transformer/rectifier ratings, utility system criteria, and overhead contact system ratings. Using the train loading data generated in the TSP, together with the established train schedule, a load flow analysis will be performed using MKE's Load Flow Program. This program combines the electrical demand of the individual train loads derived in the train simulations - 3 - 7627R " " " with the overall train dispatch, and calculates the voltage at each train location. The load analyses will be performed considering normal operating conditions and emergency conditions that could result due to outage of a utility supply line or malfunction of a substation equip- ment. In locations where the voltage drop exceeds the limits established, adjustment will be made to the sizes of the conductors in the overhead contact system or to the location of the substations. The results of this analysis will be used to confirm substation locations, equipment ratings and overhead contact system conductor sizes. This analysis will also identify any differences in the traction power system configuration if freight service is also electrified, such as increased traction substation capacity, catenary conductor sizes, etc. A sample plot showing power, voltage and current in a substation is shown in Exhibit 1. Task 3.3 - Conceptual Design Substations Based on the results of the power systems studies discussed above and the locations established for the substations, conceptual design of the individual traction substations and related facilities will be performed. This will include the following activities: o Prepare system layout including transmission line configurations. o Prepare typical single -line diagrams for substations. o Define supervisory monitoring, control, and data requirements. o Size and tentatively select principal equipment. Catenary Conceptual design of the overhead contact system, or catenary, will be performed to establish the basic system configurations and structural design features. Selection of conductors will be based on the elec- trical criteria, principally the capacity requirements, developed in the power system studies. The configuration of the catenary, in terms of system depth, number of conductors, conductor material, conductor tensions, and fixed or auto -tensioning, will be balanced against the requirements of train speed and economic support structure spacing. The optimum support spacing will be determined considering the following aspects: o Conductor sizes and loading conditions o Pantograph sweep, wind blow -off and locomotive sway o Choice of weight -tensioned or fixed -termination equipment o Position of ground wire on support structures o Effect of meteorological conditions (ambient temperature and winds) on current capacity - 4 - 7627R EXHIBIT 1 • SUBSTATION OUTPUT PROFILES • • s a IW 0 a i z� W a • Y W O J 0 • 10- t !""

It is often the case when electrifying an existing railroad that the basic cost of materials is small in comparison with the cost of labor and its supervision, espe- cially when these are combined with the additional railroad traffic operating costs incurred by temporary track possessions during construction. Conceptual design drawings will be prepared covering major elements of the overhead contact system, to describe the design arrangements and components selected. The overall line layout will then be analyzed to establish material and construction quantities for cost estimating purposes. Again, separate catenary configurations will be described for electrification of both passenger and freight services, if appropriate. Modifications to Other System Elements Conceptual designs will be prepared covering modifications to other system elements affected by electrification, such as signals, communi- cations and control, along -track civil structures, trackwork, and maintenance facilities. Since electrification systems can impact the electrical coding used by railroad CTC dispatching systems to control signal aspects, an evalu- ation will be made of the possible continued use of the existing AT&SF system, and necessary signalling system modifications will be designed. An assessment will be also made of the possibility of utilizing existing communications equipment in the electrified system, along with a deter- mination of modifications necessary to permit operation under electric traction. This task will also include conceptual design of the remote supervisory control system for the traction power equipment. Overhead and lateral structures along the line will be reviewed to determine where clearance restrictions exist for catenary installation. Cased on the review of along -track structures, the most suitable form of modification will be determined (e.g. structural modification, track lowering, etc.). An assessment will be made of the maintenance facilities to determine modifications required for locomotive maintenance. In addition, maintenance requirements will also be determined for the catenary, substations, signalling system, and communications and control systems, in order to estimate annual maintenance costs. Task 3.4 - Capital and Operating Cost Estimates Applying unit prices to the quantities derived in the conceptual design, capital costs will be estimated for the following electrification facilities: o Electric locomotives (and spare parts) o Overhead contact system (catenary) - 6 - 7627R " " " o Substations o Utility system installations or modifications o Signal and communications systems installation and modifications o Installed facilities and equipment for electrification system maintenance o Modification of vehicle maintenance facilities o Modifications to bridges or tracks for restrictive clearances o Trackwork installations and modifications In addition, estimates will be made of the costs of surveying, engineering, and other implementation services, as well as transitional costs associated with the electrification process. The residual values of diesel locomotives and salvage values of diesel support facilities considered surplus at the time of electrification will also be estimated. MKE will make use of its extensive electrification cost data files for applicable unit prices for the estimates. Costs of operation and maintenance of the electrified operation will be developed on an annual basis. These costs will be broken down into major components such as electric energy consumption and demand costs, materials and equipment, maintenance labor and other costs, as developed in the respective tasks discussed earlier. Primary elements of annual costs will be: o Electrical energy consumption and power demand o Electrical locomotive maintenance o Maintenance of installed electrification facilities (overhead contact system, substations, signaling system, etc.) Capital and annual costs will be estimated separately for electrification of commuter service only and for electrification of both commuter and freight operations. Task 3.5 - Implementation Timing Based on the costs and corresponding service levels developed in the preceding tasks for electrification of the commuter service, we will evaluate the service level at which it would be most desirable to adopt electrification. This will essentially be an economic analysis, incorporating the beneficial effects of reduced air pollution, noise levels and other impacts as well. The evaluation of railroad electrification involves essentially a trade-off between the initial capital costs of the installed equipment and motive power and the annual economic savings deriving from reduced fuel/energy costs, reduced vehicle maintenance costs, reduced train crew costs, reduced pollution, and reduced travel time. While the initial costs are relatively independent of future traffic levels, the annual savings vary directly with the number of trains operating; hence there is a theoretical traffic threshold, or service level, at which electrification becomes economical. - 7 - 7627R " " " Our analysis in this task will focus on the determination of the optimum service level which will justify electrification, but it is recognized that some impacts are not readily quantifiable, such as reduced pollution, travel time savings, and impact on related railroad operations. Thus we will analyze these effects subjectively, in consultation with RCTC and AT&SF, to arrive at realistic conclusions regarding the appropriate service level for electrification of the line. In the event an optimal implementation date is not clearly indicated in the foregoing analysis, a separate computation will be made of the economic "shortfall" resulting from electrification at a designated point in time. For example, if conversion to electric traction must be done by a certain year to comply with clean air regulations, we will assess the amount of "subsidy" that would be required in order to make the investment economically attractive. This analysis will be performed separately for electrification of commuter rail only and for the incremental additional electrification of freight service. Task 3.6 - Prepare Technical Memorandum (TM-2) At the conclusion of the electrification study, we will prepare a Technical Memorandum (TM-2) which will document the various analyses, findings and conclusions and will present the resulting operations plans, facility designs and costs. The Technical Memorandum will be prepared as a stand-alone document, to be used as input for subsequent study tasks and for agency and/or public distribution, and will also become a component of the final report to be prepared in Task Group 7. - 8 - 7627R . i • • Our analysis in this task will focus on the determination of the optimum service level which will justify electrification, but it is recognized that some impacts are not readily quantifiable, such as reduced pollution, travel time savings, and impact on related railroad operations.
