BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The City of Lodi owns and operates a number of water and wastewater facilities, which include the Surface Water Treatment Facility (SWTF), the White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WSWPCF), 28 groundwater wells, 17 storm water pumping stations, and 10 sewer lift stations. All of these facilities utilize a computer-monitored alarm response, control, and data acquisition system, commonly referred to as a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. The central SCADA system for the water system and storm and sewer lift stations is located at the SWTF. WSWPCF operates independently on its own SCADA system. In addition to the current facilities monitored by SCADA, the Public Works Department has current and future projects that will require SCADA integration, such as the new 1.5 million-gallon water storage tank to be located at well site No. 28. The current Professional Services Agreement with Telstar expires on June 30, 2026. Additionally, the SCADA communications hardware that allows for the remote operation of infrastructure has reached end of life and Telstar will be doing the programming of the replacement hardware for the water, storm, and sewer collections systems to allow for a seamless transition between systems.
