INTRODUCED: October 27, 2014 BY: Ami Nawrocki COUNCILPERSON City Clerk’s Office Item # M-3 Background Paper for Proposed Resolution COUNCIL MEETING DATE: October 27, 2014 TO: President Sandra K. Daff and Members of City Council CC: Sam Azad, City Manager VIA: Gina Dutcher, City Clerk From: Gene Michael, Wastewater Director SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT IN THE AMOUNT OF $363,000 TO K.R. SWERDFEGER CONSTRUCTION, INC. AND SETTING FORTH $72,600 FOR CONTINGENCIES, FOR THE FY2014 WEST SIDE SANITARY SEWER REDIRECTION PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE THE SAME SUMMARY: Attached is a resolution awarding a construction contract to K.R. Swerdfeger Construction, Inc. for FY2014 West Side Sanitary Sewer Redirection Project to redirect the sanitary waste flow from the broken mains under Burlington Northern Santa Fe’s railroad tracks. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION : None BACKGROUND : Currently, there are two broken mains that are located under Burlington sanitary sewer th Northern Santa Fe’s (BNSF) railroad tracks near Halleck Avenue and West 16 Street th and Halleck Avenue and West 17 Street. The Wastewater Department is called out to these locations at least once a month to flush the line because wastewater is backed up due to the broken pipe. There is always a possibility for the cleaning head to become lodged in the broken pipe while flushing the main. Redirecting the wastewater flow will eliminate the sanitary sewer mains under BNSF’s railroad tracks. Also, any future maintenance problems can be repaired with an open cut fix. A new sanitary main will be constructed at the manhole located in the thth intersection of Halleck Avenue and the alley between West 17 Street and West 18 Street and head south crossing BNSF’s and the Colorado State Hospital’s Right Of Way (ROW) to an existing manhole located in the southern portion of the State Hospital’s ROW. This proposed alignment will not be under any railroad tracks or secured fences. A permit to place the sanitary main has been granted by BNSF. The plans have been approved by the Colorado State Hospital and an easement agreement is being drafted by the Colorado State Hospital. The work by K.R. Swerdfeger Construction, Inc. will involve the construction of 2,926 lineal feet of 8-inch pipe, constructing 11 (eleven) 48-inch diameter manholes, removing and replacing 3 (three) 48-inch diameter manholes and 1 (one) 60-inch manhole, as well as various surface improvements. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS : The cost of the construction project was bid at $363,000. Funds have been budgeted and appropriated to the Projects To Be Determined Fund and will be transferred to (WWAN01) for Project #14-031 (WWAN01). BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION : Not applicable STAKEHOLDER PROCESS : None ALTERNATIVES : Alternative No. 1 – No Action Under this alternative, the City would make no improvements to the existing sanitary mains and the system would remain as is. Doing so could introduce unsanitary conditions to the public as well as contaminate ground water sources with raw sewage. Furthermore, there is a possibility the cleaning head may get lodged in the broken pipe. Alternative No. 2 – Pipe Bursting Existing Pipe Under Railroad Tracks This alternative was considered but discarded due to the lack of feasibility. Pipe bursting is a trenchless method of replacing buried pipes that cannot be replaced with a traditional open cut trench. Due to the type, size and slope of the pipe, pipe bursting was not suitable for this project. RECOMMENDATION : Approval of the Resolution.
