Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Hadronex, Inc.,
subject to nonsubstantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney, to provide two-
way wireless communication, real-time, continuous, remote alarm monitoring management services,
in an amount not to exceed $75,000 annually, for a term of one year, with the option to extend for up
to three additional one-year periods exercisable by the City Manager.
DISCUSSION
The proposed agreement with Hadronex, Inc., will provide the City with a preventive mechanism to
immediately identify sewer system overflows in compliance with the State's waste discharge
requirements. The City of Santa Ana's sanitary sewer collections system comprises approximately
390 miles of sewer mains, two sewer lift stations, 48,500 sewer laterals, and 8,000 sewer manholes
that are used to convey all sewer effluent from the city into the Orange County Sanitation District
system. In accordance with the City's Sewer System Management Plan and the State's waste
discharge requirements, the City must inspect, assess, and maintain the sanitary sewer system in
good repair.
The SmartCover® technology developed by Hadronex, Inc., is a state-of-the-art system to assess
flow level surges inside sewer manholes and prevent possible sewer system overflows. Real-time
continuous remote sensors transmit alarms through two-way wireless communication and provide
data in an easy-to-use web-based interface. The agreement includes inspection, monitoring,
maintenance, and equipment for 20 SmartCover® alarm monitoring devices. The City will also
secure additional SmartCover® units to be deployed at strategic locations throughout the city.
Hadronex, Inc., has been providing remote alarm management services to the City since 2010, and
has a history of providing these same services to other cities and utility agencies. The SmartCoverO
system has been proven effective to date, and has enhanced the City's ability to comply with the
State's wastewater discharge requirements.

SECTION 3. DESCRIPTION OF THE SATELLITE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
The SmartCover° communication system is unique in that it does not use GSM, GPRS
or any other cell phone based system to communicate from the manhole location.
SmartCover® uses the highly reliable Iridium satellite system as the communications
backbone. Iridium is a state of the art system of 66 Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites
with 6 orbiting spares. This satellite system has many years of reliable experience.
The SmartCover° system uses 2048 bit encrypted servers stored in a climate controlled
and secure facility. The servers are redundant and have an emergency power supply to
prevent any interruptions. The Hadronex Secure Servers store historical
Communication, Data Storage, and Data Access information, available through any web
server via encrypted data and send notifications directly to you.
Being a web or cloud based system; data is available at all times through any computer
via access to the internet.
IT IS NOT NECESSARY FOR THE CITY OF SANTA ANA TO PURCHASE ANY
SPECIAL COMPUTER PROGRAMS.
Iridium Satellite Constellation
Hadronex Inc. 381 Engel Street, Escondido, CA, 92026
25E-18

As seen below, the SmartCover° communicates directly to an orbiting satellite. The
communications signal is then sent to earth link stations of Iridium and then to Hadronex
secure servers. Alarm signals are subsequently sent to the City of Santa Ana via cell
phone, Smart Phone, digital pager and to computers via the internet. Should you want
the alarms sent to a central control room, it can easily be accommodated.
This communication system also operates in reverse. If the City of Santa Ana wishes to
change the alarm distance it is done via the City of Santa Ana management page on the
secure City of Santa Ana web page. This is then sent to the Hadronex servers and
through the Iridium system down to the unit attached to the manhole cover. There is
never a need to go to the site to make any of these changes. The units can also be
turned on and off by this same method.

System Operations
The SmartCover° system works by taking a distance measurement every 6 minutes
using the DSM (ultrasonic sensor). If the water is below the alarm level, the
SmartCover® logs every other distance reading and sends it to the historical server
every hour for long term trending. If the water level is above the alarm level, an
alarm notification is sent directly to the users. It is a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week
system.
Below is a typical graph from the City of Santa Ana secure web page. It can be
seen that everything is normal and then there is a high water level alarm. The
bottom of the sensor is 64 inches from the manhole cover and the alarm is set for 74
inches below the manhole cover.

The City of Santa Ana will receive alarms through cell phone or pagers via Short
Message Service (SMS), or Smart Phones and emails via email messaging. A
direct-from-satellite handheld system is available upon request for highly critical
communications in case of massive power loss upon request.
A LEVEL MEASUREMENT IS TAKEN EVERY 6 MINUTES AND UPDATES THE
DATA ON THE SERVER EVERY HOUR. IN THE EVENT OF A HIGH WATER
EVENT, THE ALARM IS SENT THE NEXT TIME A LEVEL MEASUREMENT IS
MADE. IN THIS CASE THE LONGEST TIME BETWEEN THE TIME THE WATER
REACHES THE ALARM LEVEL AND WHEN THE ALARM SOUNDS IS 5
MINUTES AND 59 SECONDS.

every SmartCovero as shown above. There are three symbols for ease of
management.
GREEN - Means that everything is functioning properly, the water level is not at the
alarm level and there are no other alarms.
BLUE - Indicates that some maintenance action is required, for instance it could mean
the battery has low voltage and needs to be replaced or that a unit has not
communicated the last time it was supposed to.

SECTION 4. INSTALLATION AND ACTIVATION
INSTALLATION
• Standard Installation: The SmartCovero-S unit is installed in the field at the
designated location.
Alternate Installation: The SmartCover®-S unit is installed on the selected
cover off site and transported to the designated location. This method can
minimize the need for traffic control and disruption.
• Installation consists of physically attaching of the SmartCovere-S unit to the
cover at the designated location; alignment and on-site testing to ensure that
the unit is operational prior to leaving the site.
• The SmartCovere-S unit is mounted directly to the lid or hatch by the use of
stainless steel hardware.
• The SmartCovero-S antenna is low profile, high performance and traffic rated.
Attachment of the antenna is achieved by using Mil.-spec epoxy and requires
the drilling of a 3/8" hole in the cover.
• City of Santa Ana will provide personnel and equipment, as appropriate for
traffic control as required by local regulations and safety of field personnel.

taken to bring full functionality to the SmartCover® system.
