TITLE
A RESOLUTION AWARDING A CONTRACT FOR THE YEAR 2000 TRENCHLESS
SANITARY SEWER REHABILITATION PROJECT, AND AUTHORIZING THE
PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE THE SAME
ISSUE
Should the City Council award a construction contract to K.R. Swerdfeger Construction,
Inc. for trenchless sanitary sewer rehabilitation in the City of Pueblo for $156,995.98.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the Resolution
BACKGROUND
Bids were received for three (3) sites for "trenchless" rehabilitation. The approved
trenchless rehabilitation methods consist of either: cured -in -place or fold- and -form. We
are able to use a trenchless method on sewer mains where the existing pipe has not
completely collapsed and open excavation is not acceptable or practical.
Site #1 — The 10 -inch cast iron pipe (CIP) crossing the Highway 50 bypass at Amarillo
Avenue is eroding and becoming a maintenance problem. Before it collapses beneath the
highway, we have scheduled it to be rehabilitated.
Site #2 — The 6 -inch vitrified clay pipe (VCP) along South Union Avenue near Corona
Avenue is cracked severely and the joints are in poor condition. During rainstorms water
is infiltrating into the main. This main is to be rehabilitated with this project.
Site 93 - Years ago, concrete pipe was installed in some areas of the City to provide
sanitary sewer service to the areas. The concrete mains are now beginning to show signs
of deterioration and have collapsed in isolated locations. In an effort to upgrade the
deteriorated sewer mains, a rehabilitation program was initiated. This year the 21 -inch
concrete pipe crossing 1 -25 near Santa Fe Avenue will be rehabilitated.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The project will financed by the Sewer User Fee Fund, account number 525 -4140-
432.70-10. A copy of the bid summary is attached for your information.
