ISSUE
Should the City Council award a construction contract in the amount of $48,500 to Aslan
Construction Inc. to Remove and replace the knifegates and chutes in the centrifuge building at
the James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility project?
RECOMMENDATION
Approve this Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Wastewater treatment at the James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility requires disposal of
biosolids residues via landfilling. During the winter months the biosolids must be dried using
industrial centrifuges to remove excess water. The granular material and corrosive atmosphere
cause wear on metal components, including the knifegates and chutes used to deliver finished
biosolids to truck trailers. The existing knifegates and chutes are 25 years old and are showing
severe corrosion, causing the moving parts to malfunction. To prevent disruptions in the
wastewater treatment process it was determined that the knifegates and chutes should be
replaced.
The bid summary sheet is attached. The bid summary shows a bid of $106,000 submitted by a
single bidder. After the bid opening, it was determined that the chutes do not need to be
replaced at this time. The project has been modified to include only the knifegate replacement
at a cost of $48,000, plus $500 insurance and $9,250 in contingencies.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funding for this project will be taken from the Sewer User Fund. Funding for Project No. 12-055
(WW1101) is available and was appropriated in the 2012 budget.
