AUTHORIZATION NO. 1
For
PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES
To
BURNS & McDONNELL ENGINEERING COMPANY, INC.
Kansas City, Missouri
In accordance with the AGREEMENT for PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES dated
between City of Jefferson City, Missouri
(hereinafter called OWNER) and Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company,
Inc. (hereinafter called ENGINEER) , OWNER hereby authorizes ENGINEER to proceed
with the following services:
I. SCOPE
The Scope of services to be provided by ENGINEER, in connection with this
Authorization, is as follows.
In general, ENGINEER will prepare a study report examining the technical and
economic feasibility of utilizing incinerators to recover energy from burning
OWNER'S municipal solid waste. This study will include the following tasks:
1 . TASK I.1 DETERMINE SOLID WASTE GENERATION
Burns & McDonnell will evaluate the available information on the loads
and yards of waste received at the landfill to determine the volume of
solid waste generated in Jefferson City and outside the corporate
limits. Because weight data is not available on the loads of waste, it
is planned to conduct a limited weighing program to determine load
densities for use in calculating quantities in tons.
Information on the quantities of wastes collected and recycled from
state institutions, private industries, and commercial establishments
will be obtained to provide a more complete evaluation of waste
generation.
Using the calculated quantities of waste available for energy recovery
and census data, Burns & McDonnell will project the supply of solid
wastes available for conversion to energy throughout the anticipated
life of the facility.
. 2. TASK I.2 DETERMINE SOLID WASTE COMPOSITION
The waste composition will be estimated from the available landfill data
and will be based on waste types (e.g. , residential, commercial,
industrial, institutional, etc.) . Each waste route (or load) will be
categorized by waste type (or percentages of each) and the total tons of
each waste type calculated. The total waste composition will then be
calculated by taking weighted averages of each waste type, using
national composition data for each waste type. The calculated
PBAUI.JEF 1
composition data for Jeffersion City will then be compared with
composition data for similar cities.
The data obtained in Tasks I.1 and 1.2 will be used to calculate the
available energy in terms of Btu.
3. TASK II, COST OF PRESENT SYSTEM
Burns & McDonnell will estimate the cost of operating the existing
landfill based on amortized capital cost and operating cost to determine
a disposal cost per ton. Because the existing landfill is only a short
distance from the City, it is not anticipated that significant
collection or transportation cost savings will be realized from the
location of an energy recovery plant within the city limits. Therefore,
a collection cost study will not be made in order to reserve available
study funds for evaluation of alternative energy technologies and
markets.
4. TASK III.1 IDENTIFICATION OF MARKETS
Burns & McDonnell will develop a preliminary listing of potential users
of recovered energy in and near the City of Jefferson City using the
following sources:
• Existing City listing.
o. SIC listings of City industries, and
• Local utility service companies.
Steam/hot water will be the major energy commodity considered; however,
the potential for cogeneration (simultaneous production of steam and
electricity) and chilled water air-conditioning systems will be
considered if warranted.
The potential users (including city office buildings, state office
buildings, hospitals, Lincoln University buildings, state penitentiary,
and local industries identified from the above sources) will be
telephoned to determine amount of steam usage, type and cost of fuel,
etc. Significant energy users will be mailed an energy user survey
form. A personal interview will follow the mailing in order to obtain
complete survey information. At a minimum, the following data will be
collected from the potential energy users:
a. Consumption, characteristics, use, and contractual requirements for
all fuels and electricity presently used.
• b. Identification of existing boilers and turbine generators along.with
their:
• Location
• Age
• Type
• Capacity
• Primary and secondary fuels
• Efficiency

r
o Operating schedule
o Output conditions (steam-temperature, pressure; electricity-
voltage)
o Boiler feedwater treatment
o Auxiliary equipment (air pollution, ash handling) .
e. A statement of interest on the part of the potential user. Successful
resource recovery facility operators stress the necessity of not only
finding a customer for recovered energy products, but a willing
customer.
d. A proposed price which the potential energy user would pay for waste-
derived energy.
e. An indication of the stability of the market. Specific information
useful in this regard includes:
• Plans for installing new or removing old energy production
equipment,
• Plans for changing primary fuel usage,
• General expansion plans,
• Length of operation at existing location,
®
• Other plant locations of the same firm,
o Plans for major operational changes.
5. TASK III.2 INVESTIGATION OF POTENTIAL SITES
The most promising potential energy markets will be identified based on
the information developed in Task III.1 and available solid waste
quantities. We will then meet with City personnel and representatives
of potential energy users to identify possible sites for energy recovery
facilities. Map and field investigations will be conducted in this
effort, and sites both on and off potential user's property will be
considered.
The identified sites will then be evaluated for each potential energy
user with respect to:
o Availability of sufficient space
o Proximity to tie-in to energy user
o Existing and proposed zoning
o Surrounding land use
o Traffic patterns
• , Applicable city ordinances
• State laws and regulations concerning energy recovery incinerators.
In most cases; the first two factors will be dominant in determining the
optimum facility site for a specific energy market; however, all the
above factors will be considered.
6. TASK III.3 ENERGY RECOVERY TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT
An assessment of energy recovery technology will be developed based on
information available from operating facilities. The incinerator
technologies would include, as a minimum:
PBAUI .JEF 3
o Multiple-ohamber oontrolled-air incinerators with external waste heat
boilers
o Multiple-chamber controlled-air incinerators with water tubes in the
combustion area
o Water-cooled, rotary-kiln incinerators with external waste heat
boilers.
The assessment will include as a minimum the following:
• Experience
• Equipment life
• Capacities
• Maintenance requirements
• Manpower requirement
• Downtime
• Ash generation
• Efficiency (combustion and heat recovery)
• Energy product recovered.
• Air pollution control requirements.
7. TASK III A IDENTIFY ALTERNATIVE SYSTEMS,
The purpose of this task is to identify alternative energy recovery
systems which are technically capable of being implemented. Information
developed in the previous three tasks as well as that gathered
concerning the existing solid waste management system will be evaluated
and assimilated. A minimum of two alternative systems will be defined
in sufficient detail to allow for economic analyses of the projects as
discussed in Task IV.1. Burns & McDonnell will submit a progress report
and meet with the City to discuss the alternative systems and potential
sites before proceeding to perform the economic evaluation. This review
by the City will serve as important input to the decision-making
process.
8. TASK IV-1 ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF ALTERNAXIVE SYSTEMS
After review by the City of the progress report, we will perform an
economic evaluation of the selected alternatives. The alternatives will
not be developed in great detail; therefore, the pricing information
will be based on historical data from operating facilities, previous
Burns & McDonnell estimates, and published information; as well as
manufacturer's quotes. The major elements of the economic analysis will
be:
• Project cost (amortized capital cost) includes total construction
cost plus engineering, administrative, underwriting costs, interest
® during construction, start-up, debt reserve, and other reserves.
o Annual operation and maintenance cost (salaries, fringe benefits,
insurance, taxes, utilities, transportation, maintenance, ash
disposal, etc.) .
• Revenues produced by the system.
• Tax credits.
These elements will be utilized to generate present-worth cost summaries
for each alternative. Interest rates and inflation rates to be used in
4 PBAU1.JEF

these analyses will be mutually agreed upon by Burns & McDonnell and the
City.
g. TASK IV.2 ANALYSIS OF OWNERSHIP AND OPERATING ALTERNATIVES
The three major options which have been used in procuring energy
recovery systems include:
o Conventional--City contracts with engineering firm to prepare system
plans and specifications which then are used as a competitive bid
package for construction.
o Turnkey--City contracts with one party to provide facility design,
construction and start-up.
o Full Service--City contracts with one party who has full
responsibility for financing, design, construction, operation, and
possibly ownership of the system.
The potential advantages and disadvantages of the City of Jefferson City
entering into the above procurement options will be evaluated.
The following methods of financing will be discussed and evaluated for
this specific situation:
o Revenue Bonds
o General Obligation Bonds
o Industrial Development Revenue Bonds
o Environmental Improvement Authority Revenue Bonds
o Chattel or Corporate Bonds
10. TASK IV.3 PROVIDE FINAL REPORT
A draft final report will be prepared for the City summarizing all the
information and analytical results developed in all project tasks. This
report will contain Burns & McDonnell's final recommended energy
recovery alternative (if any) including the most suitable combination of
financing, ownership and management. A preliminary implementation plan,
including proposed project schedule, estimated project costs, and
financing requirements will be provided.
Following review of the draft final report with the City, the final
report will be prepared and 100 copies provided to the City.
