June 2018 P.E.E.R. Award Winner
Lieutenant Doug Fuller, Niles Fire Department
Lieutenant Fuller from the Niles Fire Department was
nominated for June’s PEER Award for going above and
beyond his job duties as a Niles Fire Lieutenant.
Lt. Fuller has been with the Niles Fire Department since
1995; he has continually been a reliable member of the Fire
Department. As a firefighter he was a paramedic preceptor
for several years, riding in the field with new paramedic
students to teach and guide them in the principles and
procedures the student learned while in school.
As a lieutenant, he has volunteered and assumed the
responsibility of several tasks including the purchase and
layout of new fire engines and towers. Lt. Fuller spent
several hours of his own time mounting equipment into the
new vehicles to best utilize the space of the new
apparatus.
Lt. Fuller is a member of the MABAS Division 3 Technical
Rescue Team, the department team leader, and he has the responsibility of being the hose
and water usage officer. This schedule would fill the plate of most firefighters but Lt. Fuller
still finds time to be an instructor at the regional fire academy (NIPSTA).
Lt. Fuller is a hard worker who cares about the people in the community he serves in
addition to his "brother/sister" firefighters. When it comes to the fire service, one thing you
rarely hear Lt. Fuller say is, "I can't" or "No".
Lt. Fuller is a very caring and giving person. Last year, Doug had a friend who was in need
and, without being asked, Doug made a tremendous sacrifice to help out his friend. This is
just one of the many incidents that make up that man we work with and have the pleasure
of knowing.
The ERC feels that Lieutenant Fuller’s actions deserve the June PEER award. The Village of
Niles prides itself on recognizing employees who show integrity and honor in their
positions.

and micro wireless facilities and prevent visual blight in the neighborhoods in which facilities are
installed, (v) facilitate the location of small and micro wireless facilities in permitted locations
within the public right-of-way in the Village, and (vi) assure the continued safe use and enjoyment
of private properties adjacent to small and micro wireless facilities.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS - COMMERCIAL EQUIPMENT
“Company” shall mean Trane Canada ULC for sales in Canada and Trane U.S. Inc. for sales in the United States.
1. Acceptance. These terms and conditions are an integral part of Company’s offer and form the basis of any agreement (the “Agreement”)
resulting from Company’s proposal (the “Proposal”) for the sale of the described commercial equipment and any ancillary services (the
“Equipment”). COMPANY’S TERMS AND CONDITIONS ARE SUBJECT TO PERIODIC CHANGE OR AMENDMENT. The Proposal is subject to
acceptance in writing by the party to whom this offer is made or an authorized agent (“Customer”) delivered to Company within 30 days from the date
of the Proposal. If Customer accepts the Proposal by placing an order, without the addition of any other terms and conditions of sale or any other
modification, Customer’s order shall be deemed acceptance of the Proposal subject to Company’s terms and conditions. If Customer’s order is
expressly conditioned upon Company’s acceptance or assent to terms and/or conditions other than those expressed herein, return of such order by
Company with Company’s terms and conditions attached or referenced serves as Company’s notice of objection to Customer’s terms and as
Company’s counter-offer to provide Equipment in accordance with the Proposal and the Company’s terms and conditions. If Customer does not reject
or object in writing to Company within 10 days, Company’s counter-offer will be deemed accepted. Customer’s acceptance of the Equipment will in
any event constitute an acceptance by Customer of Company’s terms and conditions. This Agreement is subject to credit approval by Company.
Upon disapproval of credit, Company may delay or suspend performance or, at its option, renegotiate prices and/or terms and conditions with
Customer. If Company and Customer are unable to agree on such revisions, this Agreement shall be cancelled without any liability.
2. Title and Risk of Loss. All Equipment sales with destinations to Canada or the U.S. shall be made as follows: FOB Company’s U.S.
manufacturing facility or warehouse (full freight allowed). Title and risk of loss or damage to Equipment will pass to Customer upon tender of delivery
of such to carrier at Company’s U.S. manufacturing facility or warehouse.
3. Pricing and Taxes. Following acceptance without addition of any other terms and condition of sale or any other modification by Customer, the
prices stated are firm provided that notification of release for immediate production and shipment is received at Company’s factory not later than 3
months from order acceptance. If such release is received later than 3 months from order acceptance date, prices will be increased a straight 1% (not
compounded) for each 1 month period (or part thereof) beyond the 3 month firm price period up to the date of receipt of such release. If such release
is not received within 6 months after the date of order acceptance, the prices are subject to renegotiation or at Company’s option, the order will be
cancelled. Any delay in shipment caused by Customer's actions will subject prices to increase equal to the percentage increase in list prices during
that period of delay and Company may charge Customer with incurred storage fees. In no event will prices be decreased. The price of Equipment
does not include any present or future foreign, federal, state, or local property, license, privilege, sales, use, excise, value added, gross receipts or
other like taxes or assessments. Such amounts will be itemized separately to Customer, who will make prompt payment to Company. Company will
accept valid exemption documentation for such from Customer, if applicable. All prices include packaging in accordance with Company’s standard
procedures. Charges for special packaging, crating or packing are the responsibility of Customer.
4. Delivery and Delays. Delivery dates are approximate and not guaranteed. Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the
Equipment on or before the estimated delivery date will notify Customer if the estimated delivery dates cannot be honored, and will deliver the
Equipment and services as soon as practicable thereafter. In no event will Company be liable for any damages or expenses caused by delays in
delivery.
5. Performance. Company shall be obligated to furnish only the Equipment described in the Proposal and in submittal data (if such data is issued in
connection with the order). Company may rely on the acceptance of the Proposal, and in submittal data as acceptance of the suitability of the
Equipment for the particular project or location. Unless specifically stated in the Proposal, compliance with any local building codes or other laws or
regulations relating to specifications or the location, use or operation of the Equipment is the sole responsibility of Customer. If Equipment is tendered
that does not fully comply with the provisions of this Agreement, and Equipment is rejected by Customer, Company will have the right to cure within a
reasonable time after notice thereof by substituting a conforming tender whether or not the time for performance has passed.
6. Force Majeure. Company’s duty to perform under this Agreement and the Equipment prices are contingent upon the non-occurrence of an Event
of Force Majeure. If the Company shall be unable to carry out any material obligation under this Agreement due to an Event of Force Majeure, this
Agreement shall at Company’s election (i) remain in effect but Company’s obligations shall be suspended until the uncontrollable event terminates or
(ii) be terminated upon 10 days notice to Customer, in which event Customer shall pay Company for all parts of the Work furnished to the date of
termination. An "Event of Force Majeure" shall mean any cause or event beyond the control of Company. Without limiting the foregoing, “Event of
Force Majeure” includes: acts of God; acts of terrorism, war or the public enemy; flood; earthquake; tornado; storm; fire; civil disobedience; pandemic
insurrections; riots; labor/labour disputes; labor/labour or material shortages; sabotage; restraint by court order or public authority (whether valid or
invalid); and action or non-action by or inability to obtain or keep in force the necessary governmental authorizations, permits, licenses, certificates or
approvals if not caused by Company; and the requirements of any applicable government in any manner that diverts either the material or the finished
product to the direct or indirect benefit of the government.
7. Limited Warranty. Company warrants the Equipment manufactured by Company for a period of the lesser of 12 months from initial start-up or 18
months from date of shipment, whichever is less, against failure due to defects in material and manufacture and that it has the capacities and ratings
set forth in Company's catalogs and bulletins ("Warranty"). Equipment manufactured by Company that includes required start-up and sold in
North America will not be warranted by Company unless Company performs the Equipment startup. Exclusions from this Warranty include
damage or failure arising from: wear and tear; corrosion, erosion, deterioration; modifications made by others to the Equipment; repairs or alterations
by a party other than Company that adversely affects the stability or reliability of the Equipment; vandalism; neglect; accident; adverse weather or
environmental conditions; abuse or improper use; improper installation; commissioning by a party other than Company; unusual physical or electrical
or mechanical stress; operation with any accessory, equipment or part not specifically approved by Company; refrigerant not supplied by Company;
and/or lack of proper maintenance as recommended by Company. Company shall not be obligated to pay for the cost of lost refrigerant or lost product.
Company's obligations and liabilities under this Warranty are limited to furnishing replacement equipment or parts, at its option, FCA (Incoterms 2000)
factory or warehouse (f.o.b. factory or warehouse for US domestic purposes) at Company-designated shipping point, freight-allowed to Company's
warranty agent's stock location, for all non-conforming Company-manufactured Equipment (which have been returned by Customer to Company.
Returns must have prior written approval by Company and are subject to restocking charge where applicable. Equipment, material and/or parts that
are not manufactured by Company are not warranted by Company and have such warranties as may be extended by the respective manufacturer.
COMPANY MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING PREVENTION OF MOLD/MOULD,
FUNGUS, BACTERIA, MICROBIAL GROWTH, OR ANY OTHER CONTAMINATES. No warranty liability whatsoever shall attach to Company until
Customer’s complete order has been paid for in full and Company's liability under this Warranty shall be limited to the purchase price of the Equipment
shown to be defective. Additional warranty protection is available on an extra-cost basis and must be in writing and agreed to by an authorized
signatory of the Company. EXCEPT FOR COMPANY’S WARRANTY EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, COMPANY DOES NOT MAKE, AND
HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, ANY WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED CONCERNING ITS PRODUCTS, EQUIPMENT OR
SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF DESIGN, MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, OR OTHERS THAT ARE ALLEGED TO ARISE FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR TRADE.
8. Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Company and Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each other from any and all
claims, actions, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, including reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from death or bodily injury or damage to real
or personal property, to the extent caused by the negligence or misconduct of their respective employees or other authorized agents in connection
with their activities within the scope of this Agreement. Neither party shall indemnify the other against claims, damages, expenses or liabilities to the
extent attributable to the acts or omissions of the other party. If the parties are both at fault, the obligation to indemnify shall be proportional to their
relative fault. The duty to indemnify will continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the expiration or early termination hereof, with respect to any
claims based on facts or conditions that occurred prior to expiration or termination.

9. Insurance. Upon request, Company will furnish evidence of its standard insurance coverage. If Customer has requested to be named as an
additional insured under Company’s insurance policy, Company will do so but only subject to Company’s manuscript additional insured endorsement
under its primary Commercial General Liability policies. In no event does Company waive any rights of subrogation.
10. Customer Breach. Each of the following events or conditions shall constitute a breach by Customer and shall give Company the right, without an
election of remedies, to terminate this Agreement, require payment prior to shipping, or suspend performance by delivery of written notice: (1) Any
failure by Customer to pay amounts when due; or (2) any general assignment by Customer for the benefit of its creditors, or if Customer becomes
bankrupt or insolvent or takes the benefit of any statute for bankrupt or insolvent debtors, or makes or proposes to make any proposal or arrangement
with creditors, or if any steps are taken for the winding up or other termination of Customer or the liquidation of its assets, or if a trustee, receiver, or
similar person is appointed over any of the assets or interests of Customer; (3) Any representation or warranty furnished by Customer in connection
with this Agreement is false or misleading in any material respect when made; or (4) Any failure by Customer to perform or comply with any material
provision of this Agreement. Customer shall be liable to the Company for all Equipment furnished and all damages sustained by Company (including
lost profit and overhead).
11. Limitation of Liability. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR ANY
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION
REFRIGERANT LOSS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOST DATA, LOST REVENUE, LOST PROFITS) EVEN IF A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED
OF SUCH POSSIBLE DAMAGES OR IF SAME WERE REASONABLY FORESEEABLE AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE CAUSE OF
ACTION IS FRAMED IN CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, ANY OTHER TORT, WARRANTY, STRICT LIABILITY, OR PRODUCT LIABILITY). In no
event will Company’s liability in connection with the provision of products or services or otherwise under this Agreement exceed the
entire amount paid to Company by Customer under this Agreement.
12. Nuclear Liability. In the event that the Equipment sold hereunder is to be used in a nuclear facility, Customer will, prior to such use, arrange for
insurance or governmental indemnity protecting Company against all liability and hereby releases and agrees to indemnify Company and its suppliers
for any nuclear damage, including loss of use, in any manner arising out of a nuclear incident, whether alleged to be due, in whole or in part to the
negligence or otherwise of Company or its suppliers.
13. Intellectual Property; Patent Indemnity. Company retains all ownership, license and other rights to all patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade
secrets and other intellectual property rights related to the Equipment, and, except for the right to use the Equipment sold, Customer obtains no rights
to use any such intellectual property. Company agrees to defend any suit or proceeding brought against Customer so far as such suit or proceeding is
solely based upon a claim that the use of the Equipment provided by Company constitutes infringement of any patent of the United States of America,
provided Company is promptly notified in writing and given authority, information and assistance for defense of same. Company will, at its option,
procure for Customer the right to continue to use said Equipment, or modify it so that it becomes non-infringing, or replace same with non-infringing
Equipment, or to remove said Equipment and to refund the purchase price. The foregoing will not be construed to include any Agreement by
Company to accept any liability whatsoever in respect to patents for inventions including more than the Equipment furnished hereunder, or in respect
of patents for methods and processes to be carried out with the aid of said Equipment. The provision of Equipment by Company does not convey any
license, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, under patent claims covering combinations of said Equipment with other devices or elements. The
foregoing states the entire liability of Company with regard to patent infringement. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph, Customer will hold
Company harmless against any expense or loss resulting from infringement of patents or trademarks arising from compliance with Customer’s
designs or specifications or instructions.
14. Cancellation. Equipment is specially manufactured in response to orders. An order placed with and accepted by Company cannot be delayed,
canceled, suspended, or extended except with Company's written consent and upon written terms accepted by Company that will reimburse
Company for and indemnify Company against loss and provide Company with a reasonable profit for its materials, time, labor, services, use of
facilities and otherwise. Customer will be obligated to accept any Equipment shipped, tendered for delivery or delivered by Company pursuant to the
order prior to any agreed delay, cancellation, suspension or extension of the order. Any attempt by Customer to unilaterally revoke, delay or suspend
acceptance for any reason whatever after it has agreed to delivery of or accepted any shipment shall constitute a breach of this Agreement. For
purposes of this paragraph, acceptance occurs by any waiver of inspection, use or possession of Equipment, payment of the invoice, or any indication
of exclusive control exercised by Customer.
15. Invoicing and Payment. Equipment shall be invoiced to Customer upon tender of delivery thereof to the carrier. Customer shall pay Company’s
invoices within net 30 days of shipment date. Company reserves the right to add to any account outstanding for more than 30 days a service charge
equal to the lesser of the maximum allowable legal interest rate or 1.5% of the principal amount due at the end of each month. Customer shall pay all
costs (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Company in attempting to collect amounts due and otherwise enforcing these terms and conditions. If
requested, Company will provide appropriate lien waivers upon receipt of payment. Company may at any time decline to ship, make delivery or
perform work except upon receipt of cash payment, letter of credit, or security, or upon other terms and conditions satisfactory to Company. Customer
agrees that, unless Customer makes payment in advance, Company will have a purchase money security interest in all Equipment to secure payment
in full of all amounts due Company and its order for the Equipment, together with these terms and conditions, form a security agreement (as defined
by the UCC in the United States and as defined in the Personal Property Security Act in Canada). Customer shall keep the Equipment free of all taxes
and encumbrances, shall not remove the Equipment from its original installation point and shall not assign or transfer any interest in the Equipment
until all payments due Company have been made. The purchase money security interest granted herein attaches upon Company’s acceptance of
Customer’s order and on receipt of the Equipment described in the accepted Proposal but prior to its installation. The parties have no agreement to
postpone the time for attachment unless specifically noted in writing on the accepted order. Customer will have no rights of set off against any
amounts, which become payable to Company under this Agreement or otherwise.
16. Claims. Company will consider claims for concealed shortages in shipments or rejections due to failure to conform to an order only if such claims
or rejections are made in writing within 15 days of delivery and are accompanied by the packing list and, if applicable, the reasons in detail why the
Equipment does not conform to Customer’s order. Upon receiving authorization and shipping instructions from authorized personnel of Company,
Customer may return rejected Equipment, transportation charges prepaid, for replacement. Company may charge Customer any costs resulting from
the testing, handling, and disposition of any Equipment returned by Customer which are not found by Company to be nonconforming. All Equipment
damaged during shipment and all claims relating thereto must be made with the freight carrier in accordance with such carrier’s policies and
procedures. Claims for Equipment damaged during shipment are not covered under the warranty provision stated herein.
17. Export Laws. The obligation of Company to supply Equipment under this Agreement is subject to the ability of Company to supply such items
consistent with applicable laws and regulations of the United States and other governments. Company reserves the right to refuse to enter into or
perform any order, and to cancel any order, under this Agreement if Company in its sole discretion determines that performance of the transaction to
which such order relates would violate any such applicable law or regulation. Customer will pay all handling and other similar costs from Company’s
factories including the costs of freight, insurance, export clearances, import duties and taxes. Customer will be “exporter of record” with respect to any
export from the United States of America and will perform all compliance and logistics functions in connection therewith and will also comply with all
applicable laws, rules and regulations. Customer understands that Company and/or the Equipment are subject to laws and regulations of the United
States of America which may require licensing or authorization for and/or prohibit export, re-export or diversion of Company’s Equipment to certain
countries, and agrees it will not knowingly assist or participate in any such diversion or other violation of applicable United States of America laws and

Statement of Qualifications
Effective distribution of water to local residents is vitally important to the growth of any community.
Whether the distribution channels are to extend from an existing infrastructure, or the infrastructure
itself needs to be repaired or engineered, numerous economic and environmental factors come into
play; Regulatory requirements must be met; and revenue projections must be accurately assessed.
Above all, environmental safety and efficient delivery must be achieved to ensure community
acceptance. ADS offers the full complement of technology and resources necessary to solve your
community's water distribution system needs.
The commodity that water systems deliver today has greater value than ever before. Water supply,
treatment, storage, and pumping all add value to the water user. With mounting infrastructure costs
and growing constraints on water resources, water system managers must strive to account for all of the
water that travels from source to end users. Water accountability on the supply side is effective
because it is under utility managers’ direct control and water savings translate directly to cost savings.
ADS Environmental Services 2
Water System Leak Detection and Survey Services
Village of Glenview (Joint Bid)
Water accountability analyses track water through the delivery system and identify potential areas for
improvement.
ADS Environmental Services (ADS ES) has an extensive background in Water Audits, Special Hydraulic
Measurements, District Measurements, and Leak Detection. ADS ES has provided these services in
hundreds of cities across the United States. During several of these projects, important discoveries were
made – such as open blow-offs and closed valves – to water leaks that would never surface, because the
channel of water had found its way back into a storm water pipe. These examples led to savings of
millions of dollars and improved water delivery after the problems were remedied.
The Pitometer water group has led the water industry in diagnostic water services since 1895. Pitometer
Associates originally devised the Water Loss Survey and this has become the modern IWA/AWWA Water
Audit. Their experience in water services is unmatched in the water industry. This includes many of
today’s techniques in leak survey services, meter testing, and other water loss analysis services. With
the recent acquisition of Pitometer assets by ADS, these two organizations have joined together to offer
utilities world class distribution and collection system diagnostics. The knowledge and experience of
Pitometer are enhanced with the resources, expertise, and strength of ADS. ADS Environmental
Services has the capability to mobilize and implement the largest and most challenging water and
wastewater projects - with 23 locations throughout the United States and Australia, the most
experienced operations team in the industry, and over a century of water distribution system knowledge
and refined processes. The Pitometer Group of ADS provides comprehensive water services from water
audits to complete diagnostic services including: district flow measurement, leak detection, pressure
surveys, meter testing, fire flow testing, valve exercising, and hydrant flushing.
ADS has the equipment, knowledge, and experience to carry out every aspect of this project as
outlined in the Invitation for Bid and for all of the Municipalities involved in this Joint Bid.
ADS Environmental Services 3
Water System Leak Detection and Survey Services
Village of Glenview (Joint Bid)
Project Approach and Understanding
For this project, ADS agrees with the approach and methodology for the leak detection survey outlined
in the Invitation for Bids. Some of the highlights of this approach include:
Comprehensive Leak Detection Survey – ADS will conduct a leak detection/location survey with
sonic detection equipment for each community under this Joint agreement. Each community
system will be monitored by making physical contact and listening on all hydrants and selected
main line valves and b-box or service valves with highly sensitive sound intensifying instruments.
Leakage Investigation and Pinpointing – In areas showing indications of leakage, or when the
leakage technician suspects they may be hearing a leak through sound amplification, ADS will
thoroughly investigate the mains and services with an electronic leak correlator to pinpoint the
leak location for repair.
Systems Documentation – ADS will record all defective system components such as valves,
hydrants and curb stops, as well as any map errors, that are noted in the course of carrying out
other field activities.
Project Deliverables – ADS will prepare a final report showing the results of all tests and
investigations. The report will include the location and estimated quantity of leakage found and
cost benefit analysis of the survey, as well as the inventory of defective system components and
map errors. A leak location ticket will also be included for any leak discovered during the
survey.
Emergency Leak Detection Services – When called upon from time to time, ADS can respond
during after business hours (4 p.m. and 7 a.m.) or during regular business hours (7 a.m. and 4
p.m.) when not performing work in another municipality, to assist crews with locating possible
main breaks. Our office and technical staff are all located in the Chicago-land area, which allows
us to quickly mobilize for emergency leak locates, in most cases within 90 minutes of
notification.
ADS Environmental Services 4
Water System Leak Detection and Survey Services
Village of Glenview (Joint Bid)
Detailed Scope of Services
ADS will conduct a leak detection/location survey with sonic detection equipment each community’s
water system. ADS can utilize two different methodologies to survey the total length of water for each
system. The first method (Method 1) would consist of our technical staff listening directly on all
hydrants and main line valves, and when necessary b-box and service valves with highly sensitive sound
intensifying instruments. The second method (Method 2) would consist of our technical staff listening
directly on all hydrants and selected main line valves, and when necessary b-box and service valves.
Each method has a calculated cost as outlined in the price tables attached. By offering both methods,
communities of this joint bid can chose which method is most appropriate for their overall needs and
budget.
Regardless of either method highlighted above, when valves cannot be found within 10 minutes of their
identified/noted location by the community, a “Valve Not Found” status will be recorded.
Considerations should be made by each community when a valve basin/box/cleanout is paved over,
covered or full of debris or full of water. As outlined in the bid, it is assumed that it will be the
responsibility of the community to clean out and make accessible all valves in their system that will be
required for the sounding survey.
For larger systems, and regardless of either method utilized, we propose two days sounding of the
system followed by one day of resounding and correlating at each potential leak location. This approach
will provide a set of organized results for the report that can be submitted to the city each week. ADS
will perform two full days of sounding for each system (when necessary) and mark down the potential
leak sounds. One day will then be taken to return to those locations to see if the sound is still present.
The sound may simply be due to usage and resounding will determine whether it is a leak sound. If it is a
leak sound, the location will be further investigated with the electronic correlator.
ADS will thoroughly investigate the mains, hydrants, valves and/or services with an electronic leak
correlator and ground microphone to pinpoint the leaks for repair. Leak locations can be marked with
Precautionary Paint (color selected by municipality) unless otherwise noted by the Community. ADS
recommends that all identified leaks be repaired while ADS engineers/technicians are still working in the
community so that the immediate area can be sounded again in case another leak may have been
masked by the original leak noise. If the leak is suspected to be in a residential driveway, ADS will not
mark the leak location with any spray paint, but instead will notify the respective Municipality’s contact
person if a leak is found on a non-public area.
On particularly difficult to find leaks Hydrophone sensors or Ground Mics may be deployed to assist the
pinpoint of the leak. ADS will also record all defective system components – such as valves, hydrants
and curb stops – as well as any map errors that are noted in the course of carrying out the field
activities. We will be able to conduct the vast majority of the survey during normal working hours
outlined in the RFP documentation. In areas with a high traffic volume or heavy background noise, ADS
will perform this work during off-hours and will provide each community with the necessary notice.
ADS Environmental Services 5

Equipment
ADS is unique in that we use a number of industry leading technologies to perform our leak detection
surveys. Our primary equipment includes the Fluid Conservation Systems (FCS) S-30 and/or the
ADS/Primayer Mikron Leak Surveyor for sounding the leaks and the Echologics LT Leak or ADS/Primayer
Digital for pinpointing the leaks. Echologics and Primayer are leaders in the manufacture and service of
leak detection equipment. Our leak technicians use this equipment for leak surveys and emergency leak
calls on a daily basis and continue to have good success with it. In those areas of the leak survey with
very high traffic volume, we may use a second leak detection device to supplement the work of the
Echologics LT Leak correlator. The Primayer Enigma – used by our leakage technicians on many of our
most recent leakage surveys in the Midwest region – combines sound logging and correlation. Up to six
correlating “pods” can be deployed in an area on hydrants or valves. The pods can be programmed to
sound and correlate with each other at a particular time of day (for example, during nighttime hours
when traffic and other noises are minimized). The information from the pods is then downloaded to a
laptop computer and analyzed to determine if and where there are leaks in the target area.
Classification of Leaks
ADS will classify all leaks as outlined below. These are defined as:
Classification Definition
Class 1 Any leak which is hazardous in terms of potential
undermining, possibly resulting in surface collapse,
encroachment and / or damage to nearby utilities,
commercial or private properties or leaks severe
enough to warrant immediate repair.
Class 2 All leaks that display water losses significant
enough to be monitored on a regular repair
schedule.
Class 3 Relatively small leaks that should be repaired as
workload permits.
Daily or Weekly Reporting
We will meet with the designated community representative on daily/weekly basis and deliver any leak
reports from the previous day/weeks work. Leak sheets will be prepared with a sketch of the location,
leak classification and estimated water loss. ADS can prepare and submit a weekly report to
communities designated representative that will include:
• Miles or Feet surveyed that week
• Miles or Feet surveyed to date
• Total estimated water loss
• Number of leaks and suspected locations
• Hours worked that week
ADS Environmental Services 6

Final Report
Our final report will summarize the project and show the results of all tests and investigations. Hard
copies of this report will be included and will include:
• A brief summary of the Survey
• A description of the area surveyed
• An overview of the methodology and equipment used for the survey
• A comprehensive list of all leak types and locations and estimated quantity of leakage found
• An inventory of defective system components and map errors encountered during the survey
• Sketches of the individual leak locations
• Estimated water loss from the leaks discovered during the survey
Schedule of Work
ADS will be available to start the survey within three to five weeks of having a signed agreement. Based
on the number of miles for each community, we are confident that all field work can be completed by
the outlined date in the IFB document. The time needed to pinpoint leaks depends upon the number of
leaks discovered and their level of difficulty. As previously discussed, we have found that two days of
sounding the system should be followed by one day of resounding and correlating at each potential leak
location. The leak survey will be conducted primarily during normal working hours with additional leak
detection being conducted during late evening and/or early morning hours if necessary in areas of high
traffic volume. The final report will be submitted to each community within 30 days of the end of the
field work.

Project Experience
CHICAGO, IL – Hydraulic Engineering Services for the Department of Water Management
ADS initially began working with the City of Chicago in 1904 and
did so periodically until 1960. Since 1960, we have partnered
with the City on consecutive year-long projects. During that time,
major ADS projects have saved the City millions of dollars in lost
revenue. We have completed numerous projects for the Water
Department including a comprehensive leak detection survey
program from the 1990s to current. Some of the recent
highlights of these surveys include:
Year Miles Surveyed # of Leaks Found Annual Water Loss
2015 1032 miles 585 leaks 8.0 MGD
2014 1042 miles 380 leaks 6.3 MGD
2013 1763 miles 637 leaks 9.1 MGD
2012 1908 miles 659 leaks 8.9 MGD
2011 1600 miles 460 leaks 6.4 MGD
2010 1220 miles 400 leaks 4.9 MGD
*(through 10/1/14)
ADS will continue to provide our leak detection services into 2016 which will also include much of the
City’s larger diameter water mains. We also anticipate continued services through 2017.
We conduct services at the request of the City of Chicago Water Department which serves the City and
118 surrounding suburbs. The department oversees two filtration plants – South Water Purification
Plant and Jardine Water Purification Plant – that serve a population of 5,000,000 people and deliver an
average of 376 billion gallons of water per year with an average daily pumpage of 727 million gallons to
the City and 303 million gallons to the suburbs. The City of Chicago water system covers an area of 228
square miles in the City and 524 square miles in the suburbs. The water distribution system consists of
4,233 miles of main ranging in size from six to 60 inches.

DECATUR, IL – Multi-Year Leak Detection Program for the Department of Water Management
A leakage investigation on 176 miles of the City’s water
distribution system has been conducted since 2008. This
included listening on all hydrants and strategic main line valves
and selected B-Box service valves using sensitive sound
intensifying instruments. A subsequent investigation was
conducted in all suspect areas where indications of leakage
were detected by using an electronic leak correlator to pinpoint
the leaks for repair. ADS also performed correlation on 7 water
mains that have been identified as river or lake crossings to
ensure no leakage is occurring on these mains. Additionally, ADS was contracted to perform Master
Meter testing at 11 meters, 5 of which were water treatment plant meters and 6 which were large
commercial meters. This project was also featured in Municipal Water and Sewer in January of 2011,
showing a 5:1 return on investment from 2008 to 2010.
Year Miles Surveyed # of Leaks Found Daily Water Loss
2015 182 miles 37 leaks 279,000 gpd

“We’re always looking at our water accountability. You’re always upgrading your meters to make sure they’re
accurate. This was just one piece of the puzzle: Let’s find some leaks that we can’t see.”
Randy Miller, Water Services Manager City of Decatur, IL
“We had about a 17% apparent water loss between what we pump out of our water treatment plant and what we
bill to our customers. We thought one of the most important ways to start toward lowering that percentage was to
do a systemwide leak detection survey.” “Certainly we had the majority of our water loss through our water mains.
But the amount that we were losing from hydrant leaks and water service leaks surprised me. I didn’t expect those
numbers to be as high as they were. Those are easy fixes that we were able to do right away.”

Philadelphia, PA – Various Water Engineering Services for the Water Department (PWD)
ADS Environmental Services was the Prime Consultant
conducting all field activities for various water engineering
services. ADS also supervised a sub-consultant MBE to
conduct this work. The Pitometer group of ADS LLC conducted
surveys for the City of Philadelphia from 1941-1946 and from
1956 to 2012.
ADS performed specialized work such as trunk main gauging’s in each of the Cities Ten pressure zones,
loss of head (C-Factor) tests, and water accountability measurements. These measurements included
master meter test verification and large customer meter verification, special investigations and water
loss measurements through leak detection.
The work performed by ADS and Pitometer over the years has been referenced by many of the manuals
and text developed for water loss control studies. One example is that information found in the AWWA
M-36 Manual for Water Audits and Loss Control
programs. This manual is the industry’s source
text for information and standards of water loss
control. Results by the Pitometer Group with
the Philadelphia Water Department helped
pave the way for other standards in water
distribution, and lead to better understanding
of established minimum pressures (Pressure
Zones) that is required for providing adequate
water distribution pressures when
topographical variations are present in a water
system.

EXHIBIT B
FORM OF NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
VILLAGE OF NILES, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS
PROPOSED MILWAUKEE-OAKTON TIF REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA AND PLAN
Notice is hereby given that on September 25, 2018, at 6:30 p.m. following the
close of the Milwaukee-Dempster public hearing at the Village Council Chambers, 1000
Civic Center Drive, Niles, Illinois, a public hearing will be held to consider the
designation of the Milwaukee-Oakton TIF Redevelopment Plan (the “Redevelopment
Plan”) and the designation of that redevelopment project area known as the Milwaukee-
Oakton TIF Redevelopment Project Area (the “Redevelopment Project Area”). The
Redevelopment Project Area consists of the territory legally described in Exhibit A
attached and is generally described below:
The Milwaukee-Oakton TIF is located in the center of the Village, at the intersection of
Milwaukee Avenue and Oakton Street. More specifically the RPA includes properties long the
eastern and western portions of Milwaukee Avenue from Howard Street to Monroe Street,
parcels along the eastern and western portions of Milwaukee Avenue from Oakton Street to
Monroe Street and parcels along the northern and southern portions of Oakton Street from Oriole
to Osceola Avenue. Adjacent rights of way are also included.
At the hearing, designation of the Redevelopment Plan and Project, designation of the
proposed Redevelopment Project Area, and adoption of tax increment allocation
financing therefor will be considered. The Redevelopment Plan and Project is on file
and available for public inspection at the office of the Village Clerk, Niles Village Hall,
1000 Civic Center Drive, Niles, Illinois. Pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan and Project
the Village proposes to alleviate conservation area conditions in the Redevelopment
Project Area and to enhance the tax base of the Village and the taxing districts having
taxable property within the Redevelopment Project Area by utilizing tax increment
financing to fund various eligible project costs to stimulate private investment within
the Redevelopment Project Area. These eligible project costs may include, but may not
be limited to, studies, surveys, professional fees, property assembly costs, construction
of public improvements and facilities, rehabilitation of properties, financing,
administrative and other professional costs, all as authorized under the Tax Increment
Allocation Redevelopment Act, as amended. The Redevelopment Plan objectives
include promoting and protecting the health, safety, morals and welfare of the public by
establishing public/private partnerships, establishing economic growth, and
B-1
development in the Village, encouraging private investment while conforming with the
Village’s comprehensive plan, restoring and enhancing the Village’s tax base, enhancing
the value of the Redevelopment Project Area, improving the environmental quality of
the Redevelopment Project Area, and retaining and attracting employment
opportunities within the proposed Redevelopment Project Area. To achieve these
objectives, the Redevelopment Plan proposes to provide assistance by paying or
reimbursing costs related to the acquisition, construction and installation of public
facilities and improvements, property assembly, site preparation and improvement,
rehabilitation, environmental remediation, job training and other eligible
redevelopment project costs, the execution of one or more redevelopment agreements,
and the payment of financing, administrative and other professional costs.
Prior to the date of the hearing, each taxing district having property in the
Redevelopment Project Area and the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic
Opportunity may submit written comments to the Village, to the attention of the Village
Clerk, 1000 Civic Center Drive, Niles, Illinois 60714-3132.
There is hereby convened a joint review board to consider the designation of the
Redevelopment Plan and Project for and the designation of the proposed
Redevelopment Project Area and the adoption of tax increment allocation financing
therefor. The joint review board shall consist of a representative selected by each
community college district, local elementary school district and high school district or
each local community unit school district, park district, library district, township, fire
protection district and county that will have the authority to directly levy taxes on the
property within the Redevelopment Project Area at the time that the Redevelopment
Project Area is approved, a representative selected by the Village, and a public member.
The first meeting of said joint review board shall be held at 10:15 a.m. on August 15,
2018, at the Village Hall, 1000 Civic Center Drive, Niles, Illinois.
At the hearing, all interested persons or affected taxing districts may file written
objections with the Village Clerk and may be heard orally with respect to any issues
regarding the proposed Redevelopment Plan and Project, the Redevelopment Project
Area, and confirmation of tax increment allocation financing therefor. The hearing may
be adjourned by the President and the Board of Trustees of the Village without further
notice other than a motion to be entered upon the minutes of the hearing fixing the time
and place of the subsequent hearing.

the Village proposes to alleviate conservation area conditions in the Redevelopment
Project Area and to enhance the tax base of the Village and the taxing districts having

development in the Village, encouraging private investment while conforming with the
Village’s comprehensive plan, restoring and enhancing the Village’s tax base, enhancing
the value of the Redevelopment Project Area, improving the environmental quality of

opportunities within the proposed Redevelopment Project Area. To achieve these
objectives, the Redevelopment Plan proposes to provide assistance by paying or
reimbursing costs related to the acquisition, construction and installation of public
facilities and improvements, property assembly, site preparation and improvement,
rehabilitation, environmental remediation, job training and other eligible
redevelopment project costs, the execution of one or more redevelopment agreements,
and the payment of financing, administrative and other professional costs.
Prior to the date of the hearing, each taxing district having property in the
Redevelopment Project Area and the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic
Opportunity may submit written comments to the Village, to the attention of the Village
Clerk, 1000 Civic Center Drive, Niles, Illinois 60714-3132.
There is hereby convened a joint review board to consider the designation of the
Redevelopment Plan and Project for and the designation of the proposed
Redevelopment Project Area and the adoption of tax increment allocation financing
therefor. The joint review board shall consist of a representative selected by each
community college district, local elementary school district and high school district or
each local community unit school district, park district, library district, township, fire
protection district and county that will have the authority to directly levy taxes on the
property within the Redevelopment Project Area at the time that the Redevelopment
Project Area is approved, a representative selected by the Village, and a public member.
The first meeting of said joint review board shall be held at 10:00 a.m. on August 15,
2018, at the Village Hall, 1000 Civic Center Drive, Niles, Illinois.
At the hearing, all interested persons or affected taxing districts may file written
