Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: Amendment to Joint Development Agreement No. W0954778 DATE: July 13, 2011 Dubuque All- America City 2007 Smarter Sustainable Dubuque Project Manager David Lyons is recommending an amendment to the IBM Joint Development Agreement on Smarter Water to extend and expand the community access to Smarter Water information and tools. In 2009 the City of Dubuque and IBM entered into a Joint Development Agreement for the purposes of conducting research into water utilization and to develop a proto -type service that would allow participating volunteers to visualize and understand their water consumption. This project was part of Smarter Sustainable Dubuque, a research initiative of Sustainable Dubuque. The overall concept of the research is to provide citizens with real time information to be able to assist them in saving money and time, while conserving resources and reducing green house gas emissions, through more effective utilization of resources. The research to date has included the installation of specially equipped R900 meters in volunteer households, development of a system for collection, analysis and visualization of water utilization information, the incorporation of two years of historical data as a baseline, and the conduct of two "pilot session" studies with approximately 150 volunteer households in each session. IBM has provided the formal report ,showing a minimum 6.6 percent reduction in utilization and an eight -fold increase in leak detection and response for engaged households and showing significant promise in helping the community achieve its Sustainable Dubuque goals. As the City of Dubuque has completed the IBM pilot research phase for Smarter Water and awaits the conduct of the other pilots and the development of an "integrated system" coordinating the data streams for all the resource silos, the City wishes to extend the active access for the volunteer households and provide access to additional households using the standard new meters (R450s) being installed as part of the City's water meter change -out process. The amendment being proposed extends access for volunteer households through July 2013 and expands access for up to four thousand R450 households for that same time period. It will provide important information to help develop the capacity and scale of the "integrated" portal system being designed with IBM. The extension is supported by $75,000 provided through funding originally scheduled for sub - metering activity within the Water Plant. Review of the sub - metering opportunity has been conducted and it has been determined that it will be a better return on investment and research for the City to expand the direct metering and analysis program with households versus establishing additional sub - metering activity within the plant. I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval. Michael C.
