Attachment 5-A Confidential Information Designation

All materials submitted as part of a response to a solicitation are subject to Arizona public records law and will be disclosed if there is an appropriate public records request at the time of or after the award of the contract. Recognizing there may be materials included in a solicitation response that are proprietary or a trade secret, a process is set out in A.A.C. R2-7-103 (copy attached) that will allow qualifying materials to be designated as confidential and excluded from disclosure. For purposes of this process the definition of “trade secret” will be the same as that set out in A.A.C. R2-7-101(52).

Complete this form return it with your Offer along with the appropriate supporting information to assist State in making its determination as to whether any of the materials submitted as part of your Offer should be designated confidential because the material is proprietary or a trade secret and therefore not subject to disclosure.

STATE WILL NOT CONSIDER ANY MATERIAL IN YOUR OFFER “CONFIDENTIAL” UNLESS DESIGNATED ON THIS FORM.

Check one of the following – if neither is checked, State will assume that as equivalent to “DOES NOT”:

This response DOES NOT contain proprietary or trade secret information. I understand that my entire response will become public record in accordance with A.A.C. R2-7-C317.

�This response DOES contain trade secret information because it contains information that:

1. Is a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, AND

2. Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; AND

3. Is the subject of efforts by myself or my organization that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.

NOTE: Failure to attach an explanation may result in a determination that the information does not meet the statutory trade secret definition. All information that does not meet the definition of trade secret as defined by A.A.C. R2-7-101(52) will become public in accordance with A.A.C. R2-7-C317. State may make its own determination on materials in accordance with A.A.C. R2-7-103.

If State agrees with Offeror’s designation of trade secret or confidentiality and the determination is challenged, the undersigned hereby agrees to cooperate and support the defense of the determination with all interested parties, including legal counsel or other necessary assistance.

By submitting this response, Offeror agrees that the entire Offer, including confidential, trade secret and proprietary information may be shared with an evaluation committee and technical advisors during the evaluation process. Offeror agrees to indemnify and hold State, its agents and employees, harmless from any claims or causes of action relating to State’s withholding of information based upon reliance on the above representations, including the payment of all costs and attorney fees incurred by State in defending such an action.

Selected Experience: A Historical Architecture Inventory and NRHP Eligibility Assessment for Phase 1 of the Apache Nitrogen Products Facility; Saint David, Cochise County, Arizona; Apache Nitrogen Products. Following the removal of 31 unused buildings on the Apache Powder Plant that posed a health and safety hazard due to the presence of lead paint, asbestos, and nitrate contamination, Mr. Buckles and the Architecture Company conducted a post-demolition historical architecture inventory of the buildings using photographs and period building plans to assess the eligibility of the buildings for inclusion in the NRHP. The Apache Powder Plant as a whole had been determined eligible under Criteria (c) and (d) as a unique example of an early high explosives plant in the United States. Seven buildings in the Phase 1 area of potential effect were unique and specific to the process of producing explosives at the plant—these were recommended eligible as contributing elements to the overall NRHP eligibility of the Apache Powder Plant. The remaining buildings were either not unique or less than 50 years old. These were recommended as non-contributing elements to the eligibility of the plant as a whole. No further historical documentation was recommended.

A Historical Architecture Inventory and NRHP Eligibility Assessment for a Portion of the Apache Nitrogen Products Facility; Saint David, Arizona; Apache Nitrogen Products. Apache Nitrogen needed to remove 13 unused buildings that posed a health and safety hazard due to the presence of lead paint, asbestos, and nitrate contamination. Eleven of these buildings were at least 50 years old and, therefore, potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. As Project Archaeologist, Mr. Buckles assessed the eligibility of the standing structures for inclusion in the NRHP. The Apache Powder Plant as a whole was recommended eligible under Criteria (c) and (d) as a unique example of an early high explosives plant in the United States. The buildings under assessment, however, were not unique and therefore not recommended as contributing elements to the eligibility of the plant. No further historical documentation was recommended prior to the removal of the buildings.

Documentation of the Historical Powder Line at the Apache Powder Plant; Curtiss, Cochise County, Arizona; Apache Nitrogen Products. In order to resolve the adverse effects of the removal of 194 buildings and structures from the Apache Powder Plant, Mr. Buckles developed a work plan for the historical study of the plant. The work plan consisted of four tasks: (1) architectural documentation of the standing buildings; (2) photography of the building interiors; (3) documentation of plant infrastructure and building foundations; and (4) historical research and the formulation of research questions. The results of this study were presented in a report that was submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency. Following the completion of the study, WestLand recommended that no further historical documentation or archaeological work was needed in the area of potential effect.

The project consists of approximately 14 miles of sewer main to provide sewer capacity to serve the proposed Aerospace Corridor, and Verano private development, and relieve the existing State Prison Pump Station. The new ONI sewer will range from 15” to 36” and run from Old Vail Road and Wilmot, north adjacent to the Old Nogales Highway and Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) and tie into the new Southeast Interceptor in 36th Street. The alignment challenges include several wash crossings, private property, lengthy boring under I-10 and the need to be within the UPRR right of way. The route options are primarily land-locked and will require evaluation and permitting coordination with numerous jurisdictions such as TAA, ADOT, COT, PCDOT, PCRFCD and UPRR, as well as private property owners.

Southeast Interceptor Route Study and Design; PCRWRD. Project Manager/Lead Engineer. WestLand was retained by PCRWRD to perform an alignment study/route analysis and design of a large diameter sewer transmission main (36” to 48”) to augment the existing SEI. The route begins at 36th St and Euclid Avenue and ends just west of 17th Street, east of I-10. The route options traverse heavily urbanized residential and commercial areas. The route evaluation and permitting required coordination with many jurisdictions (including City of Tucson, City of South Tucson and Pima County) as well as historic neighborhood associations and community leaders. WestLand’s well-equipped geospatial resources and professional GIS analysts have worked closely with technical experts in engineering, survey/property acquisition, and environmental permitting to provide a valuable GIS-based geo-portal tool for data storage and route evaluation. Following route selection, WestLand developed engineering plans and specifications for the route selected by PCRWRD. The project will be constructed as a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) project.

South Rillito (West) Interceptor Rehabilitation; PCRWRD. Project Manager/Lead Engineer. WestLand was part of the CMAR team with KE&G Construction and PCRWRD for the rehabilitation of approximately 3.9 miles of 48” and 54” concrete sewer main, providing flow management plans (FMPs) and junction structure design for the project. The rehabilitated portion of the South Rillito Interceptor (SRI) is located within residential and commercial areas, with adjacent schools and parks. The sewer was rehabilitated with a combination of cured in place pipe (CIPP) and sliplining techniques. The combination of the two methods allowed the project timeline to be reduced and eliminated the third phase FMP. Extensive FMPs were utilized to allow for the maximum length of re-lining with each bypass. The largest bypass consisted of pumping over 14 million gallons a day through 9,000 lineal feet of force mains (three 18” HDPE pipes) running through commercial and residential areas and utilizing the Rillito River path. The project included new junction structures, replacement manholes, and rehabilitation of existing manholes including constructing a new bench and using carbon fiber to rehabilitate a badly corroded junction structure. The extensive public relations effort allowed the project to be completed without incident and with very minor complaints. This project was awarded the 2015 Project of the Year by the American Public Works Association (APWA) Southern Arizona and Arizona Chapter, Environmental Projects, $5-$25 Million.

Miraval Resort Water Reclamation Facility. Project Engineer. Mr. Archer designed a 50,000 gpd activated sludge treatment plant with nutrient removal and tertiary treatment capabilities. The plant included an influent lift station, anaerobic tanks for solids removal and digestion, an activated sludge secondary treatment system, filtration, disinfection, reuse storage and pump station, and recharge basins. Because of high influent nitrogen levels, the plant included two nitrification/denitrification loops with a carbon source for the second loop. The plant can be short-circuited to use just one nitrification/denitrification loop during low-flow periods in the summer.

Marana Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) Master Plan. Project Engineer. Mr. Archer developed flow and water quality projections in support of the expansion of the Marana WRF. He used ArcMap GIS software along with Specific Plan data from the Marana Planning Department to project sewer flow by basin for 5, 10, and 20 years, and also estimated buildout conditions by including General Plan data. Mr. Archer analyzed historical flows and water quality to develop peaking factors for flow and for BOD, TSS, TKN, and ammonia loading for each period. He used statistical models to check for water quality trends and distributions.

University of Arizona Science and Technology Park Sanitary Wastewater Treatment Plant (SWTP). Project Engineer. WestLand has been contracted several times to analyze the SWTP processes and to design upgrades to the existing plant. The unique conditions of the wastewater flow and size of the SWTP presented challenges to the operation of the existing extended aeration system. Mr. Archer reviewed the plant, component by component, and reviewed the existing influent quality data to determine what steps could be taken to improve plant performance. A final evaluation and list of modifications required to the physical plant as well as individual operational parameters was developed for the client to implement. In later projects, Mr. Archer analyzed the factors affecting chlorine demand and provided recommendations for changing the chlorine control loop, provided conceptual designs for increasing the chlorine contact time by modifying existing tanks, and performed a forensic analysis following a plant upset resulting from a toxic load.

Nogales International Wastewater Treatment Plant (NIWTP). Project Engineer. The 15 MGD NIWTP treats domestic, commercial, and industrial flows from Nogales and Rio Rico, Arizona, and from Heroica Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, with 75 percent coming from Mexico. Mr. Archer assisted the City in developing Local Limits for the NIWTP’s pretreatment program with the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality as the approval authority. The Local Limits were based on effluent water quality requirements, biosolids testing requirements, process inhibition, air emission criteria, vapor toxicity and operator safety, and collection system concerns. Mr. Archer’s analysis of Local Limits also accounted for existing Local Limits and existing Industrial Users.

Town of Marana Sewer Basin Study. Project Engineer. Mr. Archer reviewed the capability of the involved area’s sanitary sewage conveyance infrastructure to effectively accommodate the basin’s current tributary flows, as well as future flows. Various scenarios were evaluated to augment system facilities, rehabilitate certain system components, and/or to redirect the tributary flows to new reclamation/reuse facilities. The main goals of the project were to assure that the regional sewage conveyance components were able to accommodate present and future tributary flow in an environmentally sound manner, and deliver to facilities and locations for reuse. Mr. Archer used Esri’s ArcMap GIS software in the development of sewer basins in the planning area based on physical, political, and topographic constraints. The sewer basins were overlaid with planning information such as Marana’s general plan and specific plans to assign flow information to each basin for 5, 10, 20 and build-out scenarios. Several treatment alternatives and collection system alternatives were analyzed by combining sewer basins. GIS was also used to prepare graphics for the report and for presentations.

Ms. Daughtrey specializes in heritage conservation and the documentation and interpretation of the built environment, with an emphasis on historical archae-ology and collaborative inquiry with descendant communities and traditionally associated peoples. From 2013 to 2015, she served as an Assistant Researcher for the Bureau of Applied Research in Anthropology where her primary role involved the compilation of an ethnographic overview and resource-use planning document of 7,000 acres for the National Park Service. Her particular research interests are spatial modeling and large-scale land management strategies involving cultural and biological resources and rural historic and cultural landscapes. At WestLand, Ms. Daughtrey manages a wide variety of cultural resource projects and is responsible for conducting research, implementing field methods, writing reports, and overseeing quality control.

Selected Experience: Cultural Resources Inventory and Historic Building Assessment for Tucson Electric Power’s Irvington Campus; Tucson, Arizona; Tucson Electric Power. Tucson Electric Power is planning future improvements to its Irvington Campus, a 344-acre power-generating facility located at the intersection of Alvernon Way and Irvington Road. TEP contracted WestLand to conduct a cultural resources inventory of the facility as well as a historic building assessment to identify any standing buildings over 50 years old that might be of historical or architectural significance. Ms. Daughtrey served as Project Manager on the project. A detailed review of historical maps and aerial photographs was performed prior to the field survey to help identify Historic period buildings and structures that might still exist as archaeological sites. These potential finds were then keyed on field maps and “ground-proofed” in the field by the archaeological survey team. In the undeveloped portions of the project area, archaeologists walked parallel transects at 20-m intervals looking for archaeological resources on the ground surface. The Irvington Generating Station was assigned site number AZ BB:13:895(ASM) but was recommended not eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places because it did not represent a unique or innovative system of electrical power generation and its architecture was of an industrial-functional design that could not be assigned to any defined style. No further architectural or historical documentation was recommended prior to any improvements to the Irvington Campus.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 1.14 Acres for a 14.4-kV Electrical Transmission Line near Klondyke Road; Graham County, Arizona; Graham County Electrical Cooperative. The Graham County Electrical Cooperative proposes to construct a 14.4-kV electrical transmission line within a 15-foot-wide, 3,300-foot-long corridor across land administered by the Arizona State Land Department. Transmission line construction entails the installation of power poles every 320 feet within a disturbance footprint measuring 8 by 8 feet around each pole. Ms. Daughtrey served as Project Manager on the project, which identified two newly discovered archaeological sites—a Hohokam artifact scatter and a historical road—and a single isolated occurrence. The Hohokam site was recommended eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, and WestLand recommended that a 50-foot buffer be established and flagged around the site and that no poles be installed within its boundary or the surrounding buffer.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 1.6 Acres of Arizona State Land Department and 9.7 Acres of Pima County-administered Right-of-way; Pima County, Arizona; Diamond Ventures. In early 2017, WestLand conducted a cultural resources inventory in support of an Arizona State Land Department right-of-way application for an offsite sewer system to serve the proposed Verano housing development. As planning for the sewer system progressed, it was revealed that construction of the project would require a wider corridor than previously believed as well as improvements to several existing primitive roads and the development of a new road across Arizona State Trust land. The additional 11.3 acres were surveyed by Field Director Cannon Daughtrey, who recorded one previously unidentified prehistoric Hohokam archaeological site in the project area. WestLand recommended the site not eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places due to a lack of integrity and that no further archaeological work would be required at the site. Cultural resources clearance was recommended.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 5.72 Acres of Pinal County-owned Land; Oracle, Arizona; Pinal County Public Works Department. Pinal County proposes to sell at auction three parcels of county-owned land in Oracle, Arizona. As the sale of the parcels has the potential to adversely affect historic properties, the Pinal County Public Works Department contracted WestLand to conduct a cultural resources inventory prior to the sale of the parcels. Ms. Daughtrey served as Field Director for the project and, together with another archaeologist, walked parallel transects back and forth across the project area 10 m apart looking for surface evidence of cultural resources. The survey documented one newly identified prehistoric archaeological site (a habitation locale) and 11 isolated occurrences of cultural material. Although the site was in poor condition—it is surrounded by a 1960s-era subdivision and has been impacted by ongoing off-highway vehicle use, surface collecting, and lawn mowing—WestLand recommended the site eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Several options were recommended for the site: protection and avoidance; data recovery; or preservation in place and monitoring by the Arizona State Parks Site Steward program.

Cultural Resources Inventory of the 60-Acre Sycamore Canyon Parcel; Yavapai County, Arizona; GHD. GHD proposes to construct a soil repository on 60 acres of privately owned land north of Clarkdale, Arizona, and contracted WestLand to conduct a cultural resources inventory of the project area prior to the repository’s construction. Ms. Daughtrey served as Field Director during the survey, which identified two Native American archaeological sites and 11 isolated artifacts. WestLand recommended that the sites either be avoided or subjected to phased data recovery to mitigate any impacts caused by the proposed construction.

Phased Data Recovery on a City of Tucson Parcel at the Northwest Corner of I-19 and Irvington Road; Tucson, Arizona; Irvington Interstate Partners, LLC. WestLand undertook data recovery investigations at a City of Tucson-owned parcel in preparation for the future development of the parcel as a shopping center. Ms. Daughtrey served as Field Director during phased data recovery work at AZ BB:13:402(ASM) and AZ BB:13:55(ASM), and monitoring of the removal of a waterline that intruded upon the northern third of AZ BB:13:402(ASM). Phase I efforts included the excavation of 39 20-m-long trenches at both AZ BB:13:402(ASM) and AZ BB:13:55(ASM) to search for subsurface cultural manifestations and resulted in the discovery of 24 archaeological features. These were then the focus of Phase II data recovery. Eleven areas totaling 3,300 square meters were stripped at the two sites—an overwhelming majority at AZ BB:13:402(ASM). Stripping there resulted in the exposure of 7 prehistoric pithouse structures, 24 non-thermal pits, and 14 thermal pits. One historical trash-filled borrow pit was identified at AZ BB:13:55(ASM). Following data recovery, it was WestLand’s opinion that the portions of the project area most likely to contain buried cultural deposits and features had been appropriately investigated and that the proposed construction of the shopping center be allowed to proceed.

Selected Experience: Cultural Resources Inventory for the Proposed Marana Tap to Sandario Tap Transmission Line Rebuild Project; Pima County, Arizona; Southwest Transmission Cooperative, Inc. Principal Investigator on an archaeological survey of an 11.8-mi linear transmission line alignment along Trico Road. The project proposes to replace existing wooden-pole structures with metal single-pole structures. Five historic properties have the potential to be adversely affected by the construction, including the Hog Farm Ballcourt site and Avra Auxiliary Airfield No. 4. WestLand recommended that the planning and design of the proposed undertaking consider options to avoid the register-eligible sites. Alternatively, the preparation of an archaeological monitoring, testing, or data recovery plan specifying appropriate actions to minimize and resolve the impacts of the proposed construction activities was recommended.

Redington Interconnect Project Cultural Resources Inventory; Pinal County, Arizona; Southwest Transmission Cooperative, Inc. Principal Investigator for archaeological survey of 1,056 ac along the San Pedro River near San Manuel. Land ownership is a combination of private (646 ac), state (376.5 ac), and federally administered (33.5 ac) lands. Thirteen archaeological sites (11 newly discovered and 2 previously recorded) and 41 isolated occurrences were recorded in the project area.

Cultural Resources Inventory for a Proposed Power Line, Chukut Kuk District; Pima County, Arizona; Tohono O’odham Utility Authority. Project Principal for cultural resources inventory in support of the construction of an electrical power line to provide electrical power to villages and water wells in the Tecolote Valley. The survey identified 25 archaeological sites representing Native American use and occupation of the landscape, 18 of which were recommended eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Because all the archaeological resources were important to the Tohono O’odham Nation, appropriate avoidance measures for all 25 sites were incorporated into the power line design. WestLand recommended that construction activities could proceed without adverse effect to cultural resources.

Metro Water Lodge Road Well Site Archaeological Mitigation Plan for Site AZ BB:9:46(ASM); Tucson, Arizona; Metropolitan Domestic Water Improvement District. The Metropolitan Domestic Water Improvement District is exploring the feasibility of various locations for replacement water wells, including a 1-ac parcel at the south end of Fruchthendler Elementary School. Part of the feasibility study is an assessment of whether or not the activities associated with the drilling, constructing, operating, and managing of the water well will have an adverse effect on cultural resources. Mr. Deaver served as Principal Investigator for the development of a two-phase data recovery program designed to resolve adverse effects to the archaeological resources at the proposed well site as well as a program of archaeological monitoring for the ground-disturbing construction activities.

Historic Properties Treatment Plan for the Tucson Electric Power Tortolita to North Loop Transmission Line Project; Pinal and Pima Counties, Arizona; Tucson Electric Power. TEP intends to replace two existing 138-kV transmission lines with three higher rated 138-kV transmission lines within a 14.2-mile-long, 360-foot-wide corridor. The project includes the installation of 111 new steel monopole structures. Mr. Deaver served as Principal Investigator in the development of an HPTP that provided theoretical contexts and methods to mitigate potential adverse impacts to historic properties resulting from the proposed project. A previous cultural resources inventory had determined that 17 National Register of Historic Places-eligible sites were present in the project area. As all 17 of these sites were considered a single class of site (large agricultural field) associated with the Hohokam Classic period occupation of the Marana Platform Mound Community, WestLand proposed to conduct additional work on six of the sites, or a 35 percent sample. This negotiated settlement allows TEP to maintain their construction schedule and results in significantly lower archaeological mitigation costs.

Archaeological Monitoring for the Tucson Electric Power Silverbell Road Pole Replacement Project; Tucson, Arizona; Tucson Electric Power. At the request of the City of Tucson Historic Preservation Officer, WestLand conducted archaeological monitoring of the ground-disturbing activities associated with the replacement of three TEP utility poles within the City of Tucson Silverbell Road right-of-way south of Goret Road. Mr. Deaver served as Project Manager for the project. No cultural resources were discovered during monitoring and WestLand recommended a finding of No Historic Properties Affected.

Archaeological Monitoring for the Tucson Electric Power Ina Road Wastewater Treatment Facility 46-kV Power Line; Marana, Pima County, Arizona; Tucson Electric Power. Archaeological Monitor during the rerouting of an existing 46-kV overhead power line to service the Ina Road Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility. The project involved the installation of 34 new poles ranging from 25 to 70 feet in height. In consultation with Pima County, TEP determined that 18 pole locations required monitoring during augering activities because they were located in or adjacent to some of the most important archaeological sites in southern Arizona (e.g., Las Capas and Costello-King). During monitoring, cultural materials were observed in two locations: a rhyolite secondary flake and a fragment of brown bottle were located at a geotechnical boring and a river-worn red chert primary flake was recovered from the upper foot of a pole hole. No other cultural materials were observed.

Data Recovery at the Wooddell Site (AZ BB:9:46[ASM]) for the Metro Water Lodge Road Well Site; Tucson, Arizona; Metropolitan Domestic Water Improvement District. Principal Investigator and Project Director for data recovery excavations in a 1-ac parcel at the south end of Fruchthendler Elementary School along Lodge Road as a potential location for a new water well. Over the course of archaeological testing, WestLand excavated 190 linear meters of backhoe trench (31 trenches total). No archaeological features were found in the project area and WestLand argued that Site AZ BB:9:46(ASM) did not extend into the project parcel and that the boundaries recorded at the Arizona State Museum be amended to reflect this fact. The absence of archaeological deposits within the project parcel removed any potential for adverse effects to AZ BB:9:46(ASM) from the construction of the water well and WestLand suggested that the project be allowed to proceed without further archaeological work.

Selected Experience: Tucson Water, Booster Energy Efficiency Project. Principal in Charge. WestLand has been working with Tucson Water for the past year developing and implementing a Booster Energy Efficiency Program. The goal of this project is to focus on the approaches most likely to result in significant savings—the “low-hanging fruit,” thereby generating the greatest improvement in energy usage for the lowest up-front investment. As part of this comprehensive program, WestLand conducted a baseline data collection task at approximately 125 booster sites to document site information related to booster pumping equipment such as pumps and motors. The field data were entered in a database populated with accurate and current information, which is planned to be imported into Tucson Water’s other data management systems. WestLand also developed the process for the field energy testing and performed this testing and the subsequent analysis at 20 prioritized sites, consisting of more than 100 individual pumps.

Avra Water Co-op Energy Efficiency Analysis; Pima County, Arizona. Principal in Charge. For this energy audit and pump efficiency testing project, WestLand analyzed routine electrical consumption data from the Avra Water Co-op prior to field evaluation of well and booster pumps. The electrical consumption information analyzed included calculating electrical cost per 1,000 gallons, kilowatt-hours (kWhr) per 1,000 gallons, and peak kilowatt (kW) demand, to allow the Co-op to review data for trends, and to optimize their operational scenarios. In the second phase of the project, WestLand performed pump efficiency testing at Avra Water well and booster station sites. Pump testing was performed at eight Avra Water facilities (5 booster stations and 3 wells, total of 15 pumps). The energy audit was performed under a Water Infrastructure Finance Authority (WIFA) Planning and Engineering Grant, as a “Green” project.

Avra Valley Irrigation and Drainage District Pumping and Distribution System Efficiency Evaluation. Principal in Charge. In conjunction with Avra Valley Irrigation District (AVIDD) and Apex Applied Technology (APEX), WestLand performed a system optimization overview for the AVIDD irrigation wells and distribution system. AVIDD is located along the Santa Cruz River, west of Interstate 10 in eastern Pima County. AVIDD covers approximately 40 square miles of agriculture lands, which are generally sloped from southwest to northeast. AVIDD has over 50 privately-owned irrigation wells with the capacity ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 gallons per minute (gpm), and two to three miles of open-ditch distribution systems associated with each well. The annual irrigation water demand is approximately 30,000 acre-feet per year.

The majority of the wells were drilled in 1950’s and many of the existing well pumps were installed in the 1980’s as replacements for original equipment and are still in operation today. Many of the well pumps are gas engine-driven, while some of them have been converted to electric motors (150 to 350 hp). WestLand’s tasks for the project include building an inventory of the AVIDD irrigation systems, assessing the overall efficiencies of the existing well pumps by performing pump efficiency testing and evaluating the energy consumption records, and identifying potential rehabilitation and modification opportunities for system improvements. WestLand conducted records research including public records available online from the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR), groundwater levels from Tucson Water’s monitoring wells in the project vicinity, and AVIDD’s energy billing records. WestLand also performed site visits to 29 available well sites and conducted field pumping efficiency test to 5 wells utilizing electrical motors. The project is ongoing and WestLand is currently reviewing collected information, identifying system deficiencies, and providing recommendations for system improvements in terms of energy and water efficiencies.

Ray Water Company Water and Energy Efficiency Study. Principal in Charge. WestLand is currently providing energy efficiency evaluation to the Ray Water Company to identify areas where optimization would be beneficial to the system. Some portions of the water infrastructure are older and require a higher level of maintenance. The focus of this project is to assess the older infrastructure in terms of water and energy efficiency and determine infrastructure replacement needs to improve overall water system efficiency. Historically, shstem-wide water loss in the service area has ranged between 6 and 8 percent. However, is is known that there are many areas of the distribution which are relatively older and experience more frequent line breaks and likely higher than normal water loss. These service areas and water system facilities are the focus of this project. This project is 100 percent funded as a green project by WIFA.

Oro Valley Water Utilities Pump Testing Project. Principal in Charge. The Oro Valley Water Utilities (OVWU) operates 22 groundwater wells and 26 booster sites with a total of approximately 107 pumping units. WestLand obtained baseline information on existing pump systems, performed pump performance testing to determine operating pump curves, and performed pump efficiency analysis for each pump. Additionally, WestLand developed a database which included all baseline pump and motor data and pump efficiency data to provide ease of access to OVWU staff for day-to-day operations. WestLand also provided training to staff, operators, and technicians regarding pump basics, repair and maintenance, water system hydraulics, and pump efficiency to enable them to operate and maintain the system more efficiently and effectively.

Background: Fred Huntington, Director of Cultural Resources, has been an archaeologist in the public and private sectors for over 25 years. He began his career at the Institute for Conservation Archaeology, Peabody Museum, Harvard University in 1976. Immigrating to Arizona in 1981, Mr. Huntington worked for the Arizona State Museum, where he directed survey and testing operations for the Phase B portion of the Central Arizona Project from Picacho to Tucson. Mr. Huntington subsequently became a field director and project manager for the Institute for American Research (now Desert Archaeology), with a research focus on prehistoric site structure and household economics. Prior to joining the staff of WestLand, Fred served as Director of Cultural Resources for Tierra Right of Way Services, where he directed numerous large survey and multi-site data recovery projects in both Arizona and New Mexico. Fred also owned his own business for 14 years and is able to combine his business and archaeological skills to successfully manage large cultural resources projects.

Selected Experience: Cultural Resources Inventory of Eight Pulling Stations and an Associated Overland Route for the Tucson Electric Power PYWN Fiber-optic Line Replacement Project; between the Whitlock Valley and Willcox, Arizona; Tucson Electric Power. Tucson Electric Power proposes to remove and replace four spans of fiber-optic cable co-located on existing 345-kV transmission line structures. A rubber-tired crane will access eight 100-by-250-foot rectangular pulling stations to remove and replace the fiber-optic line. Seven of the eight pulling stations are located immediately adjacent to existing dirt roads; access to the eighth station will require the construction of a 25-by-155-foot overland route. The eight pulling stations and overland route encompass a total of 4.64 acres of Arizona State Trust land. Mr. Huntington served as Project Manager for the cultural resources survey, which identified one prehistoric archaeological site (a lithic scatter with possible subsurface features) and one isolated cultural feature. The site was recommended eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Because the proposed project will use rubber-tired vehicles to access the pulling station encompassed by the site, the work is not anticipated to result in damage to the site. WestLand recommended that the project be allowed to proceed without further archaeological work.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 41.80 Acres for Proposed Drinking Water Quality Improvement Project (Arsenic Removal); Cochise County, Arizona; Pomerene Domestic Water Improvement District. To comply with federal arsenic and fluoride drinking water quality standards, PDWID needed to design and construct new infrastructure and update operational treatment and control systems. Seven project alternatives were considered, collectively measuring 41.80 acres. As part of the compliance effort for projects that utilize federal funding, WestLand conducted a cultural resources inventory of all the project alternatives. Mr. Huntington served as Project Manager for the survey, which resulted in the identification of one new archaeological site and two isolated occurrences. Two previously recorded sites were relocated. WestLand recommended that the water system improvement project avoid the NRHP-determined eligible site and that the project would have no adverse effect on the NRHP-determined ineligible site, the NRHP-recommended ineligible site, or the recommended-ineligible isolated occurrences.

It was determined that pole-replacement activities would not impact any cultural resources sites.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 4.08 Acres for a Tucson Electric Power Pole Replacement Project; Elgin, Santa Cruz County, Arizona; Tucson Electric Power. Principal in Chargefor cultural resources inventory prior to the removal of an existing utility pole and the installation of a new pole in its place along TEP’s Ft. Huachuca 46-kV sub-transmission line. The project area consisted of the 30-m-diameter pole location and an approximately 1,700-m-long and 9-m-wide access corridor. No archaeological sites or isolated occurrences of cultural materials were identified during the survey, and WestLand recommended that the pole replacement project proceed with no further archaeological work.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 10.2 Acres of Coronado National Forest Land for a Proposed Maintenance Project along the TEP Fort Huachuca 46-kV Transmission Line; Green Valley, Pima County, Arizona; Tucson Electric Power. Principal in Charge for cultural resources inventory of 8 proposed access routes and 18 small block parcels within an existing transmission line right-of-way on Coronado National Forest land. TEP plans to replace numerous existing transmission line poles along the Fort Huachuca 46-kV transmission line as part of its long-range maintenance plan. Four previously identified NRHP-eligible archaeological sites were relocated during the survey: historic Box Canyon Road, for which no project-related impacts were anticipated; the Arrastra mine site, for which TEP re-routed its access corridor to avoid; a large Hohokam habitation and historical mining site with no surface archaeological features or artifacts along the proposed access route; and a large Hohokam habitation site with a historical/modern checkdam and rock pile, for which WestLand recommended monitoring. The one newly documented archaeological site was the Fort Huachuca 46-kV electrical transmission line, which WestLand recommended not eligible for inclusion in the NRHP. No isolated occurrences were identified during the survey.

Selected Experience: Cultural Resources Inventory of a Small Section of Arizona Department of Transportation Right-of-way between Mileposts 354 and 355; Bisbee, Cochise County, Arizona; Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. As part of the requirements for obtaining an ADOT encroachment permit to construct a new culvert across ADOT right-of-way, Dr. Lindly served as Principal Investigator for a cultural resources inventory of a small portion of NRHP-eligible State Route 92 (AZ EE:12:59[ASM]) that runs through the Copper Queen facility. SR 92 and one isolated occurrence (a combined wood and concrete culvert) were located in a Y-shaped 80-by-20-foot linear area of potential effect. Although construction of the culvert affected SR 92, the road remained in the same location, had the same feel, and the surface was rebuilt to the same condition and with the same materials as before the proposed construction. The historical culvert feature, both the inlet and outlet, was demolished by the construction. The culvert was an isolated occurrence, the recording of which was sufficient to mitigate any adverse effects of the project on it.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 17,243 Acres of Privately Owned Land for the Morenci Project; Greenlee County, Arizona; Freeport-McMoRan Morenci, Inc. In 2010 and 2011, archaeologists from WestLand surveyed approximately 17,243-acres in an almost continuous block around the Morenci open pit mine and related tailings dumps, leach fields, and processing facilities. This intensive Class III archaeological inventory survey was conducted to support and facilitate the planning and future permitting of FMMI mining facilities. Dr. Lindly served as Principal Investigator for the project. One-hundred and seventy-six archaeological sites and 807 isolated occurrences were identified in the survey area. The majority of these sites were related to historical copper mining, farming, ranching, and community development, although numerous Native American sites, both prehistoric and potentially Apache, were also documented. Six sites had been previously determined eligible for inclusion in the NRHP; 91 were recommended eligible, 78 were recommended ineligible, and one was exempt from Section 106 review.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 16.92 Acres of Arizona State Trust Land for a Haul Road Right-of-way; Dragoon, Cochise County, Arizona; Alpha Calcit Arizona, Ltd. Principal Investigator for survey of 16.92-acres as part of an application for right-of-way over and across lands administered by the Arizona State Land Department for the purpose of a haul road to be used during the extraction of white marble from a proposed above-ground non-metal mine.

John M. Lindly, PhD Senior Principal Investigator



The survey identified no archaeological sites. WestLand, therefore, recommended that the proposed haul road construction activities proceed without any further archaeological work.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 4,300 Acres in the Bunker Hill Mining District; Mammoth, Pinal County, Arizona; Redhawk Resources, Inc. As part of long-term environmental planning associated with possible mining development, Redhawk requested that WestLand document all cultural resources on 1,553-acres (ac) of Bureau of Land Management-managed land, 1,736-ac of Arizona State Trust land, and 1,011-ac of privately owned land. Dr. Lindly served as Principal in Charge of the survey, which resulted in the identification of 34 archaeological sites. Sixteen sites were recommended eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, most of which were habitation, mining, and ranching sites from the first half of the twentieth century.

Principal Investigator for cultural resources inventory prior to the acquisition of State land for the development of a new tailings disposal facility. The inventory resulted in the documentation of 34 new archaeological sites, eight previously recorded archaeological sites, and 371 isolated occurrences. Twenty-nine sites were recommended eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, 12 were recommended ineligible, and one remained unevaluated. WestLand recommended that a qualified archaeological consultant prepare an archaeological data recovery and eligibility testing plan to minimize and resolve the adverse effects of the project on the National Register-eligible properties.

Cultural Resources Inventory of the 2-Acre United Verde North Hopewell Property; Jerome, Yavapai County, Arizona; Freeport-McMoRan Corporation. Principal Investigator for survey of 2-ac parcel of land. No sites were recorded during the survey. Six isolated occurrences were recorded. Archaeological clearance was recommended for the project area.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 1.06 Acres near Pinal Creek and Horseshoe Bend Wash; Gila County, Arizona; Freeport-McMoRan Miami Inc. Principal Investigator for cultural resources inventory in preparation for the replacement of sections of a water pipeline that supplies water to the Miami mine. The 1.06-ac project area was located near the confluence of Horseshoe Bend Wash and Pinal Creek. Two potential archaeological resources were evaluated: a Historic period Euroamerican erosion-control device and the pipeline crossing itself. Neither of these occurrences was determined eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places and no adverse effect was anticipated from the proposed construction activities.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 0.66 Acre along Russell Gulch; Miami, Gila County, Arizona; Freeport-McMoRan Miami Inc. Principal Investigator for cultural resources inventory in preparation for the installation of a water pipeline to supply water to the Miami mine. Two locations were under consideration for the planned stream crossing, both located near the confluence of Russell Gulch and Bloody Tanks Wash. Two isolated features (Historic period erosion-control devices) were identified during the survey, but no cultural resource sites. The features were not considered significant and were deemed ineligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. No further work was recommended.

Cultural Resources Inventory of 1.64 Acres along Patton Road; Whittmann, Maricopa County, Arizona; Maricopa County Department of Transportation. The Maricopa County Department of Transportation contracted WestLand to conduct a cultural resources inventory prior to proposed drainage improvements along Patton Road, an east-west rural roadway that becomes inundated with ponding water and sediment during storm events at a low-flow crossing. In order to minimize ponding and sedimentation, alternatives to improve drainage were evaluated, including 520 linear feet of channel construction, the construction of a cutoff wall, and the installation of grouted riprap. Dr. Lindly served as Field Supervisor on the project. No archaeological sites or isolated occurrences were recorded in the project area, and WestLand recommended that the proposed improvements be constructed with no further archaeological work.

Selected Experience: Saguaro Water Company and Spanish Trail Water Company GIS Water System Base Mapping. Lead GIS Specialist. WestLand developed a GIS database for water company asset management for these two adjacent water utilities. Existing AutoCAD basemaps were converted to geodatabases in GIS using both the ArcGIS Water and Wastewater Modules, and ESRI’s Mapping Specifications for CAD. WestLand was able to automate some of the export from CAD to the geodatabases and all CAD feature data was attributed either through automation or by hand. WestLand incorporated all operator notes from the original as-builts with linked PDFs and DWGs for each feature. Mapped assets included pipelines, valves, water meters, fire hydrants, storage tanks, and booster pumps. A replica environment of the clients’ network was constructed to test the asset management tool prior to delivery of the final product as ArcGIS, ArcReader, and PDF files to the clients’ server.

GIS Database Development for Unisource San Juan to Vail 345 kV Transmission Line. Lead GIS Speicalist. WestLand developed a GIS database for this transmission line alignment, which extends approximately 72 miles within the Gila and Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests. This system can collectively store a variety of information sources in separate databases, link them to a geographic map, and allow users easy and interactive access to this large amount of information with selected levels of detail for specific areas of interest. Information can be displayed in a variety of formats including color-coded overlays on the geographic map, spreadsheets, pop-up notes, and scanned copies of original documents. The project goals are to manage right of way, cultural resource, and environmental documents associated with the transmission line, create land rights layers, incorporate scanned documents with the corresponding features in the geodatabase, and maintain additional documents and survey reports related to the transmission line, as needed.

Unisource DMP to Tucson Route Analysis Project. Lead GIS Specialist. TEP, a Unisource Power Company, contracted WestLand to provide a fast-track route analysis for a planned 138 kV transmission line connecting the DeMoss Petrie (DMP) substation to the Tucson substation in central Tucson, Arizona. The approach to this site selection analysis relied heavily on customized modeling and GIS capabilities and expertise for property and easement assessment. The results of the evaluation provided TEP with the tools to graphically indicate where new right of way acquisitions (full takes or easements) were required, and the costs associated with obtaining property rights for the project. The GIS system created for this project was used to produce detailed maps of data for conveying the restrictive aspects of each alignment during public stakeholder meetings and Arizona Power and Plant Committee Line Siting Committee hearings.

Charles B. Powell GIS Specialist



The GIS system and mapping provided TEP with the necessary tools to determine their requirements for each property. The detailed data was provided to TEP in an extremely short timeframe because of WestLand’s well-equipped geospatial resources and professional GIS analysts working closely with technical experts in engineering, property acquisition, and environmental permitting. Once the final route was selected, WestLand archaeologists conducted a cultural resources survey to identify archaeological sites or significant historic resources that might be adversely affected by the proposed construction, and to help project designers minimize impact to significant cultural resources. The successful completion of this project demonstrates WestLand’s ability to perform multiple services on linear projects in an urban environment, including mapping, cartography, property, cultural resource, and natural resource planning within a GIS framework.

Bisbee Sewer Lateral Evaluation Pilot Project. Lead GIS Specialist. As part of this sewer lateral evaluation project, WestLand created a GIS database with web interface to review and evaluate the condition of existing public sanitary sewer lateral serving historic Old Bisbee. Field maps from City engineers were digitized and original maps and field notes linked to feature data. Web interface allowed for creation of digital comments and edits by users. Ground-based LIDAR was used to create surfaces in ArcGIS and AutoCAD for as-builts and future planning.

Rosemont Project GeoPortal. Lead GIS Specialist. WestLand created a GIS database that graphically displays the study area and incorporates links to files such as reports, analytical data, and plans associated with specific or general locations. The Geoportal consists of an interactive map that can be used much like Google Earth, with the ability to turn data layers on and off, and to draw points, lines, and polygons. WestLand builds the base map by importing existing CAD line work (design plans), existing GIS files, and maps that show property lines, surrounding surface management, and roads from almost any file format (DWG, DGN, CSV, etc.). ESRI ArcGIS® Enterprise is used for the server platform and a web mapping application that incorporates both spatial data (GIS) and non-spatial data (i.e., reports and databases). The information is available for review and analysis by the project team from any location through a secure web browser. Chuck designed, created, and maintains the Geoportal as a custom web mapping application, providing the client with a seamless management tool to assist in planning, permitting, and monitoring project activities.

Freeport McMoRan (FMI) GIS Database Development for Morenci Operations and Sierrita Operations. Task Manager/Lead GIS Specialist. WestLand developed a GIS database to manage data and to facilitate permitting efforts at FMI’s 21,830-acre Morenci Operation. WestLand and the client agreed to use ESRI ArcGIS, which can interface directly with Excel, Access, AutoCAD, and Microstation, and can be easily customized for each project or user. The GIS database also includes information that can be used for other activities. To facilitate use of the database, WestLand provides secure access to the database using ESRI’s ArcGIS Web Application, employing a web-based interface which allows selected FMI staff to access the GIS database via a secure web server located at WestLand’s Tucson office. The GIS database includes historical documents, current and past surveys, land status, and expansion alternatives with hyperlinks to reports and other maps.

WestLand has also created a Land Management GIS database for FMI’s Sierrita Operation. Layers for the system include surface and mineral rights, survey boundary and control, sections, easements, claims, topography, impacts, utilities, roads, rights of way, County and internal parcels, environmental, cultural, and miscellaneous tasks and inventories in addition to background data such as surface management, USGS Quads, aerials and other useful layers. Linking of data to GIS layers enables the system to act as a seamless management tool helpful in assisting in permitting and recordkeeping activities.

Background: Mark Taylor is an engineering Principal and one of WestLand’s founders. He has over 30 years of experience in water resources and wastewater systems engineering, including the design of water and wastewater systems for large, multi-disciplinary public works projects, master-planned communities, private water company master planning/energy efficiency evaluation, and the mining industry. Mark is responsible for the development of water system master plans; water policy, energy efficiency studies, well, reservoir, booster station, and transmission main design; water treatment design; and the assessment of rates and development impact fees for private and municipal clients. He is also experienced with wastewater master plan preparation, energy efficiency and feasibility studies, system modeling and simulation, and capacity analyses. Mark has provided training and presentations on water and wastewater system and energy efficiency topics in numerous forums.

Selected Experience: Continental Ranch Regional Pump Station Upgrades Analysis and Design. Principal in Charge. WestLand performed a validation study to determine what was needed to bring Pima County Regional Wastewater Reclamation Department’s (PCRWRD) largest sewer pump station up to code for the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 820 which governs explosive hazards in wastewater facilities. The study reviewed the existing system for what was required to provide the required air changes per hour (ACH) for each of the rooms within the facility as well as what was needed to repair the pump station, provide back-up power, and provide a permanent flow management facility. Improvements for the facility include removing the shaft driven pumps in lieu of dry-pit submersibles, provisions for up to three force mains for ultimate flows, a permanent bypass facility that includes diesel driven sewage pumps that provides back-up pumps and a back-up power source in one. All concrete repairs and coatings were included as well as upgrades to the control structure of the pumps for the future mulit-force main system. The study outlined all upgrades and prioritized them. PCRWRD chose to move forward with design of all improvements, which WestLand performed.

Principal in Charge of the design of an influent lift station to deliver wastewater generated at the airport to a new 19,000-gpd septic/leach wastewater treatment and disposal system. The septic/leach system is an interim solution to serve the new terminal until the completion of a sanitary sewage conveyance system from the airport to a new regional wastewater reclamation facility. Wastewater generated at the new terminal and restaurant is conveyed by gravity through 1,400 feet of existing 12-inch sewer to the farthest manhole of the existing sewer line (Manhole No. 20). Sewage from Manhole No. 20 then gravity feeds through 40 feet of new 8-inch sewer to a lift station wet well where a duplex submersible pump station pumps the sewage to a new septic tank via 60 feet of 4-inch high-density polyethylene force main.

Miraval Resort and Spa Wastewater Disposal Basin; Catalina, Arizona; Miraval Resort Tucson, LLC. Principal in Charge of the design of an effluent disposal basin for the Miraval Resort Wastewater Treatment Facility, which treats and reclaims wastewater from the 232-acre Miraval Resort.

The two basin cells alternate for 50 percent wet/dry cycles. Two 60-foot, 6-inch-diameter gravity pipelines convey the treated effluent from the distribution box to each of the disposal basin cells. The pipelines are equipped with a knife valve to allow independent operation of the effluent disposal to each cell. University of Arizona Tech Park - Secondary Containment Management Evaluation. Principal in Charge. WestLand provided an evaluation of stormwater discharge and containment conditions at the Project.
