Re: Sole Source Otterbine River Fountains

The Community Development Division in partnership with Public Works has been working to
replace the now defunct fountain in the Nashua River with a new fountain and two additional
fountains over the past couple of years. As part of the Downtown Riverfront Master Plan the
City determined fountains with light would be an excellent way to help attract pedestrians and
boaters to our riverfront and help highlight its role in our downtown.

The City put out two separate bids for electrical upgrades and river fountains (RFP0365-013018
and RFP0365-111918) in 2018. Neither bid resulted in acceptable responses. To move the
project along Parks and Recreation hired Johnson Electric to install electrical upgrades on both
sides of the river to support the new fountain and additional fountains proposed by the riverfront
plan between the Cotton Mill and Main Street bridges.

In working with Lumen Studio, Inc the City’s Riverfront Lighting Designer and Halvorson
Design Partnership the firm that supported the creation of the Downtown Riverfront Plan, the
City is requesting to install up to three 5 HP Otterbine Fountains at a cost of $52,103.70. These
fountains will have a 4-light LED set and wind control, and we hope to have them installed by
early August.

Board of Aldermen Page 2
August 9, 2016

Finally | wanted to mention that an issue has come up (at 4:00 p.m. today) concerning the skateboard
park and the relocation. That has been recommended by the committee but we got a call from the
school department late saying that they think that they have to approve the relocation as well as the
Board of Public Works because this is part of a school facility or the area where this relocation where this
relocation would take place is part of a school facility. | don’t think there is a big problem because if you
approve the relocation we still have to go the Planning Board and now possibly the school department
and it looks like the preliminary indication is that the school department may be correct but it just requires
that we also in addition to the Planning Board get the School Board approval. | don’t think it’s a big
obstacle but it is something that we will work through.

| want to congratulate Alderman Clemons on his marriage.

RESPONSE TO REMARKS OF THE MAYOR

Alderman Siegel

| would ask the school department if they plan on allowing the Board of Aldermen to vote on whether or
not they can use the city’s money to appeal a decision on the custodian union. Obviously that is a
rhetorical question but | am a little concerned about that.

| would like to also congratulate my colleague, Alderman Clemons, on his recent marriage.

INSPECT AERATOR EQUIPMENT

Immediately report any shipping damage to the carrier that delivered your aerator.

Inspect your aerator and verify the following:
Unit - Check the nameplate located on the housing of the aerator unit to make sure you have received the correct
horsepower and voltage aerator.

Power Control Center - Verify the PCC is compatible with the aerator unit horsepower and voltage. Refer to the electrical
specifications on the nameplate located inside on the door of the PCC.

Power Cable Assembly - Verify the correct cable gauge and length.

For proper warranty consideration return your Otterbine warranty registration card.

ELECTRICALIPCC INSTALLATION

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION MUST BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED LICENSED ELECTRICIAN AND CONFORM
TO ALL APPLICABLE LOCAL AND NATIONAL CODES

DISCONNECT EQUIPMENT FROM ELECTRICAL SUPPLY BEFORE SERVICING OR PERFORMING MAINTENANCE
Use Only OTTERBINE power cord. Do not splice or repair the cord, replacement is necessary if damage occurs.

The standard Power Control Center includes a fiberglass NEMA 4X enclosure with twenty-four hour timer control in the
auto setting or manual control of the aerator unit, the required motor short circuit, ground fault and overcurrent protection,
surge protection, and personnel GFCI protection (except 460V 60Hz. applications). On 460V units EPD (Equipment
Protection Device) is an optional accessory to provide 5, 10 or 30 mA ground fault protection.

Caution: GFCI Protection is required. If GFCI protection is not used, serious or FATAL electrical shock may
occur.

Attention: GFCI/RCD de protection est nécessaire. Graves ou mortelles choc électrique peut se produire s'il n'est
pas utilisé.

A. Feeder

1. Proper feeder circuit protection in accordance with all applicable local and national codes must be provided to the
power control center.

2. Be certain to properly size feeder conductors to allow for no more than 5% voltage drop for the entire circuit from the
feeder source to the aerator unit. Failure to do so may damage the aerator and void product warranty.

OVERALL DIMENSION MOUNTING HOLE LAYOUT

Cc. PCC Mounting
1. To prevent damage to the enclosure mount the enclosure using all four (4) mounting holes.
2. Whenever possible do not mount the PCC in direct sun light.

D. PCC Cables & Connections
1. Only Otterbine Barebo, Inc. factory approved power cord is to be used from the PCC to the aeration unit with no
junction boxes or splices. Only use power cord gauges and lengths specified by Otterbine at the time of cable purchase.
(Contact your Otterbine Distributor for proper cable sizing)

2. It is recommended that all exposed cable between the PCC and the shoreline be installed in non-metallic conduit. It is
important that aerator and lighting cables be installed in individual conduits to avoid induced interference between cables
which causes random GFCI tripping.

3. Always use strain relief cord connectors to attach the Otterbine cable to the PCC.

4. Cables and conduits must only enter into the bottom of the PCC.

5. Factory connections may loosen during shipping. Verify tightness of all screw terminal connections before energizing.
6. Power input and output wiring connections are accessed from the bottom of the enclosure. The terminal blocks for the
cable connections are located behind the hinged swing panel. Loosen the captive screw on the right center of the swing
panel for access.

Terminal Torque Values: Input — 45 in/lb. Maximum, Output — 30 in/lb. Maximum
