Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners of the County of Oakland, by majority vote of its
members-elect, and pursuant to Michigan Public Act 342 of the Public Acts of 1939 ("Act 342"), as
amended, has authorized and directed that there be established a county system of sewage disposal
improvements and services to serve municipalities in the County (hereinafter sometimes referred to as
the "System"), and has designated the Oakland County Water Resources Commissioner as the county
agency for the System (said Water Resources Commissioner being hereinafter sometimes referred to as
the "County Agency"); and
WHEREAS, under and subject to the terms of Act 342, the County is authorized, through the
County Agency, to acquire and construct the sewage disposal facilities hereinafter described to improve
and extend the System (the "Project"); and
WHEREAS, the System recognizes the need to make improvements to its existing Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition System (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "SCADA System"); and
WHEREAS, the County Agency has authorized Tetra Tech to prepare a Project Plan, which
recommends upgrading the existing SCADA system by utilizing the existing OakNET network
infrastructure and Management from OCIT. This consists of a distributed network which uses radios and
OakNET fiber optic communication to provide the high speed communication network. The system
includes a new SCADA Data Server Center (SDSC) to be located at the OCIT building, a new SCADA
Operations Control Center (SOCC) located at WRC offices (replacing the outdated existing FEP
hardware), and approximately eight new Radio Concentrator Sites (RCS) with upgrades to additional
radio repeater sites dispersed throughout the County; and
WHEREAS, said Project Plan was presented at a Public Hearing held on May 30, 2013 and all
public comments have been considered and addressed; and
WHEREAS M.R. # 13039 acknowledged that the Water Resources Commissioner has applied for
an 52-Grant from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality for $498,334 to provide funding for
the SCADA system. The purpose of the grant is to offset enterprise and special revenue funding for the
"common to all" part of the system currently under design; and
WHEREAS adopting a final project plan is a requirement under this grant.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that Oakland County formally adopts said Project Plan
and agrees to implement the selected alternative [upgrading the existing SCADA system by utilizing the
existing OakNET network infrastructure and Management from OCIT. This consists of a distributed
network which uses radios and OakNET fiber optic communication to provide the high speed
communication network. The system includes a new SCADA Data Server Center (SDSC) to be located
at the OCIT building, a new SCADA Operations Control Center (SOCC) located at WRC offices (replacing
the outdated existing FEP hardware), and approximately eight new Radio Concentrator Sites (RCS) with
upgrades to additional radio repeater sites dispersed throughout the County]. The project cost for the
SCADA System is $2,366,339.30. These costs were previously presented and approved by the Oakland
County Budget Task Force on September 18, 2012.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County Agency, a position currently held by Jim Nash,
Water Resources Commissioner, Phil Sanzica P.E., Chief Deputy and Suzanne R. Coffey P.E., Manager,
are designated as the authorized project representatives for all activities associated with the project
