AND SETTING FORTH $235,000 FOR CONTINGENCIES, FOR PROJECT NO. 14-078 (WW1203) JAMES R. DIIORIO WATER RECLAMATION FACILITY PHASE II SWITCHGEAR REPLACEMENT PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE THE SAME SUMMARY: Attached is a Resolution awarding a construction contract to Sturgeon Electric Company, Inc. for project No. 14-078 (WW1203) James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility Phase II Switchgear Replacement Project to proceed with phase II of the electrical rehab for the James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION : Resolution No.12835, passed on November 25, 2013 for James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility Phase I Electrical Rehab. BACKGROUND : The electrical equipment at the James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility has passed its normal design life and requires constant maintenance. The Water Reclamation Facility depends on electricity to operate the various wastewater treatment processes. Electrical supply components at the facility have at times failed to operate. This is unacceptable and could lead to the inability to treat wastewater and to noncompliance of state requirements. It is the intent of this on-going project to rehabilitate key electrical supply equipment in stages to avoid any service disruptions or permit violations. This second phase of the electrical rehab will replace the switchgear. This project is vital to the smooth operation of treatment processes at the James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS : The cost of the construction project was bid at $2,347,926 with contingencies of $235,000. Funds are available from the Sewer User Funds and have been budgeted and appropriated to Project No. 14-078 (WW1203). BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION : Not applicable STAKEHOLDER PROCESS : None ALTERNATIVES : Alternative No. 1 – No Action In the event of no action being taken, electrical components could potentially fail and lead to the inability to treat wastewater causing the City to be in noncompliance of state requirements and cause serious health and safety issues to the public. RECOMMENDATION : Approval of the Resolution. Attachments : Bid Summary Sheet Site Location Map
