3 Issues and differentiators Delivering Quality Solutions for Operational Results More and more utilities are deciding to obtain control system programming services as a professional service rather than a low-bid commodity. They have learned that programming quality cannot be controlled with a low-bid, construction contract approach. Since 1993, Carollo has been a leader in providing quality programmable logic controller (PLC) and human-machine interface (HMI) programming services to water and wastewater utilities. Our clients have benefited from having their engineer design and program their process control systems, especially when their engineer has the programming resources of Carollo. In 2006, Carollo formed a dedicated subsidiary, Carollo Systems, LLC, to better serve our clients' needs by focusing on delivering the water industry's finest supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) programming services. V:\CompanySOQs\ProgrammingSvcs\Indd\01IssuesPRG.indd Carollo programmers will work with your operations staff to develop easy-to-use SCADA graphic screens. The Limitations of Low-Bid Software On most construction projects, the SCADA control system is part of a low-bid contract. The SCADA system is generally the last portion of a construction project to be completed and often the most troublesome. Every modification can become a significant change order. Low-bid programmers often leave unfinished work, software bugs, and very little documentation. On these projects, treatment plant staff have minimal input on the look and feel of the operator interface and the details of control strategy operation. That s because the contractor-programmer performs its work far from the owner s facilities. By the time the SCADA software is completed and placed in operation and operations staff can really see how it works, the general contractor and programmer are out of time and money and are primarily motivated to wrap things up and leave. issues and differentiators 1
4 The Right Approach Carollo Systems can eliminate these difficulties by performing the programming as a direct extension of our engineering services. When Carollo Systems performs system programming, we establish a relationship with you before the work starts, develop it throughout the project, and continue that relationship long after your new control system is commissioned. We work with your staff to select screen colors and symbols, command sequences, and other look and feel aspects of the SCADA operator interface. We also reserve part of our budget for post-installation refinements. This way, operations staff can test drive the new SCADA system before the final configuration adjustments are performed. Because Carollo's staff includes programmers, engineers, and operators, we can provide the most effective, innovative control system solutions customized to meet your needs. We take advanced control strategies from conception to successful implementation, working with your operations staff each step of the way. Benefits Many of our clients have experienced the benefits of Carollo s programming services. Carollo delivers SCADA systems that work. A successful SCADA system project should provide the means to effectively translate the Engineer's process control concepts into a practical SCADA system that can be readily understood and fully utilized by operators. By eliminating the low-bid contractor from the delivery process, the Carollo engineer/programmer can work directly with your operations staff to refine control strategies into practical, effective operational logic and easy-to-use graphic screens. Carollo combines our programming, process engineering, and operations expertise with your operations staff s knowledge to deliver control systems that improve your plant s performance. We streamline the automation process. By eliminating the contractorprogrammer, an unnecessary middle-man in the process, many of the typical construction delays and disputes related to development and configuration of the SCADA software are eliminated. Because we have extensive experience programming our own control strategies, we can efficiently deliver quality SCADA solutions that improve treatment plant performance, reliability, and efficiency. V:\CompanySOQs\ProgrammingSvcs\Indd\01IssuesPRG.indd We achieve operations staff participation and buy-in, resulting in greater utilization of the new technology and automation. Carollo delivers practical process control solutions directly to the user, tailored to meet each of our clients' individual needs. We understand that early involvement of operations staff in the development of SCADA screens, staff training, and easy-to-use documentation are keys to realizing full operator use of new SCADA controls and technology. issues and differentiators 2

19 Town of Hillsborough, California SCADA System Design and Programming H I G H L I G H T S Full-service SCADA system design, equipment selection, programming, commissioning, and field testing 154-MHz radio telemetry system for 25 sites Radio system design and implementation in a highly congested environment Sophisticated digital radios for high-speed transmission on limited bandwidth Redundant PCs at the master station and communications processing PLC at the master station to enhance reliability Carollo designed water, water quality, and wastewater facility telemetry for the Town of Hillsborough. This project included a fully integrated and programmed control and monitoring system. Hillsborough also selected Carollo to integrate and program the system, provide construction management, and assist with system installation. Teledesign Systems radios with digital modems were installed. The Carollo team determined the radio frequency band during design. Signal propagation was an important consideration, since most of the facilities are located in hilly areas with buildings and trees. However, the bandwidth available in the highly congested San Francisco Bay Area was only about one-third the amount normally used for high-speed telemetry systems. The use of specialized radios allows use of the assigned frequency ( MHz) with a reasonable speed of data transmission (4,800 bps). The team tested radio communication at this speed during design. At some low-lying sites, a dial-up telephone line was provided for increased reliability. Field instrumentation included water quality monitoring for turbidity and chlorine residual; monitoring of flow, pressure, and energy usage for each pump at the pump stations; utility power monitoring; and process alarms. Carollo configured the PLCs/RTUs and the master station. The PLCs/RTUs are SCADAPack with radios manufactured by Teledesign Systems of San Jose, California. This system is open-architecture with ladder logic programming of the SCADAPack RTUs. National Instruments Lookout is used for operatorinterface functions at the master station PC. V:\CompanySOQs\SCADAProgrammingSvcs\Indd\03KeyAcheivePRG.indd Hillsborough s SCADA system features a 154-MHz radio telemetry system for high-speed transmission to 25 sites on limited available bandwidth, in hilly terrain ~. key achievements 17

Carollo designed both the process improvements and the control system upgrades. Prior to the upgrade, the Merced plant operated using stand-alone controllers and hardwired control devices. The new design provides for a central PC-based computer system used for monitoring and controlling the plant processes. The project included the installation of new PLCs in both the new and existing process areas, the installation of a new fiber optic network, and the installation of a host computer system. The design of the system included hardware specifications, details on the related electrical system modifications, and comprehensive process descriptions presenting the revised methods of operation. Carollo performed all of the programming and system integration for the project, including establishing programming standards, PLC programming, HMI configuration, testing, commissioning, training, and documentation. Because the Merced Wastewater Treatment Plant is normally staffed only 40 hours per week, Carollo provided a redundant dialer system to alert operators of any problems at the plant.

21 City of Corcoran, California Arsenic Removal Water Treatment Plant SCADA System Design and Programming H I G H L I G H T S Programming and startup of 20-mgd pressurized filtration plant for removal of arsenic from groundwater supply Replacement of outdated interface software for existing wellfield control system and integration with new plant control system Upgrade using GE/Intellution ifix software Carollo Engineers, in cooperation with another firm, designed the new Arsenic Water Treatment Plant for the City of Corcoran, California. Carollo Systems was selected to program the new plant control system. Prior to the project, the City of Corcoran's existing water supply system consisted of eight groundwater wells delivering water to the city storage system with minimal filtration through a sand filter and chemical disinfection. The existing control system consisted of RTUs at each well and pump station communicating through a radio network to a National Instrument's Lookout SCADA program at the public works facility. In addition to the process upgrades, declining factory support for the existing SCADA software prompted the replacement of the existing SCADA control system with an implementation of GE Proficy ifix 4.0 SCADA/HMI software. Plant control is now handled through a pair of Allen-Bradley SLC5/05 processors. Carollo's efforts on this project included: Duplication of existing well and pump station controls in new SCADA/HMI system. Programming of control and operator interface for all plant processes (with exception of OEM filtration system). Integration of communications with OEM filtration system into plant SCADA system. System startup and commissioning. Provision of thoroughly documented control system for the City. Operations personnel training. Process report development.

22 City of Fresno, California Fresno-Clovis Regional Wastewater Reclamation Facility 68-mgd Expansion H I G H L I G H T S Design and programming of a complete PLC-based distributed control system with over 8,000 I/O points Programming, graphics display configuration, and MIS database development Fiber-optic data highway Carollo designed and programmed the new control system for the $87-million expansion to the existing Fresno-Clovis Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. The control system includes multiple, hot backup PLCs and a network of 15 PC operator interface computers (OIS). All data highways are fiber optics. This distributed control system has more than 8,000 input/output points, which can be accessed from any of the 15 OIS computers. In addition, there is a separate MIS network, which consists of an additional 30 computers. Any of these 30 MIS computers can access process data and graphic displays with proper passwords. Carollo performed process control software programming, graphic display configuration, and MIS database application software, which includes automatic report generation. Carollo programmed a complete control system with more than 8,000 I/O points for the $87 million, 68-mgd expansion to the Fresno-Clovis Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant.

23 South Tahoe Public Utility District, California Effluent Pumping SCADA Upgrade H I G H L I G H T S Worked directly with operations and maintenance staff Programming of Allen-Bradley PLCs Configuration of Wonderware HMI Development of energy management pump scheduling program The South Tahoe Public Utility District (STPUD) Wastewater Plant discharges effluent through a pipeline that extends from the plant, over a Sierra Nevada pass, to the Harvey Place Reservoir. Two pumping stations convey the water through the pipelines. Significant power cost savings have been realized by curtailing the use of the pumps during the afternoon hours by avoiding pumping during peak electric rate hours. Carollo worked directly with the plant O&M staff to develop a practical control strategy to store effluent during peak rate hours and pump at high rates during the lowest rate periods. Carollo designed and programmed the new control system for operating the export pumps and scheduling their operation based on a computer model of the pumping system. The control system was built around Allen-Bradley PLCs and the existing Wonderware SCADA system. Active X components were also developed for this project to provide a spreadsheet-style interface for the data tables required to adjust the pump scheduling program. The Wonderware displays served as a container for the custom components to seamlessly integrate the custom operations into the existing SCADA system. Carollo worked with operations and maintenance staff at the STPUD s Wastewater Treatment Plant to design and program a new control system for the plant s export pumps. Carollo provided wiring drawings and worked with maintenance staff who installed the hardware and wiring for the project. Carollo worked with operations staff to test and refine the logic to make sure it is effective, reliable, and easy to use.
