FINAL for 10/16/06 Meeting	MPWMD Comparative Matrix, Part I-A, Desalination Projects
DECISION ELEMENT	Seawater Conversion Vessel
PROPONENT/SPONSOR	Water Standard Company
PROJECT DESCRIPTION	Completely self contained seawater desalination treatment plant installed on a ship. Electrical energy and propulsion will be provided by gas turbine engines fueled with Biodiesel.  No seabed intake or outfall lines are required.  Water produced on the ship will be  shuttled to shore as required. Facilities required to distribute the water to customers on shore are unknown at this time but could be assumed to be similar to those required in the other alternatives. Size of project is unknown but assumed to be 20 MGD (approx 22,000AFY).
Pilot Project	None planned. State currently requires pilot plans but that requirement was written around land based facilities. WSC sees no need to pilot the process since we have over 2,000 ships currently successfully treating seawater. Issues needs to be discussed with the State DOHS.
PROJECT YIELD	Actual yield based on commitments of purveyor customers
Comply with Order 95-10? Water for Seaside Basin?	Yes, and can easily meet all future needs
Future Mont. Penin. Needs?	Could easily be sized for all future needs
Future Non-MP Needs	Could easily be sized for all future needs
TOTAL YIELD	Could easily be sized for all future needs
Yield Phasing to Mont Penin	Phasing will be based on demands. Larger size initially is better.
PROJECT COST	Costs in 2006 dollars for 22,000 AFY (approx 20 MGD) project provided by WSC
Capital - see lines 77-106	$129,000,000 for 20 MGD SCV (with power plant). Distribution improvements unkown.
Amortized Cap. Cost ($/yr)	Information not provided
O&M - see lines 108-112	Information not provided
Assumed energy cost ($/kwh)	$0.05 / kwh (using Biodiesel with current US government rebate tax incentive)
Total Annual Cost	Information not provided
Time frame for estimates	2006, costs not escalated
COST TO PENINSULA
Share of total project cost
How share determined
Cost sharing of existing vs. future Cal-Am ratepayers
Cost of Water ($/AF)	Cost of water produced on the SCV estimated to be less than $1,000 AF.  Costs for required distribution and pumping unknown
Impact to Cal-Am Bill	N/A
FINANCING ASSUMPTIONS	WSC funding can be used. Prefer a public private partnership with MPWMD
Interest rate (%)	80% at 7% interest and 20% at 12% if private, 7% if municipal
Term (yrs)	20 years if private, 30 yrs if municipal
Public vote required?
Grants (describe)	Office of Emergency Services or other Homeland Security funding should be looked into. WSC has not done that.
TIMELINE
Draft EIR (and/or EIS)	No actions taken on CEQA activities
Certify FEIR (EIS ROD)
Obtain key permits	none applied for at this time
Secure financing	Upon municiapl agency approval
Secure ROW/property access	NA for SCV
Start construction	Information not provided
Commence water delivery	3 years after contractual arrangements
Total time to water delivery	3 years after contractual arrangements
PERMITS/REGS
Federal Agencies	Same as land based facility except Coast guard must review operational plans.
EIS needed?
Fed lead agency?	to be determined, if needed
Sanctuary approval?	permit will be required. Not applied for yet
State Agencies	same as any land based treament palnt
CPUC approval?	N/A
EIR lead agency	MPWMD
SWRCB/Water Rights	N/A
Regional Agencies	None required for SCV
Monterey County	None required for SCV
Local Agencies	None required for SCV. Distribution system requiores construction and use permits within affected jurisdictions
SITE CONTROL
Confirmed site?	Location doesn’t really matter for the SCV itself. Shuttle ship off loading site must be selected depending on who the customers are.
Alternative sites and projects?	No restrictions. No land required. SCV can be located anywhere.
OPERATIONS/OTHER
Technical, Managerial and Financial Capabilities (TMF) to meet DHS standards	Assume implementing entity would operate desal plant with MPWMD oversight.
Back-up; water production interruptions (e.g., power or intake water)	Redundant treatment equipment per State codes; back-up gas turbine planned
PROJECT PARTICIPANTS
Overview	Willing to expand plant to meet needs of others such as FORA, MCWD and Monterey Peninsula. Shuttle ship concept may allow cities up and down the coast to participate.
MPWMD participation	MPWMD currently envisioned as sole sponsor.
Other entities participation	None specified; partnerships possible.
