SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT IN THE
AMOUNT OF $413,011 TO K.R. SWERDFEGER CONSTRUCTION, INC.,
AND SETTING FORTH $82,602 FOR CONTINGENCIES, FOR PROJECT
NO. 21-043 (WWAN05) 2021 MANHOLE REHABILITATION PROJECT
AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE SAME
SUMMARY:
During routine maintenance on the sanitary mains by the collections crew, an evaluation
of the manholes is also performed to determine the severity of deterioration. The
manholes are ranked using the National Association of Sewer Service Companies
(NASSCO) evaluation criteria – higher the ranking the worse the deterioration.
Manholes for the 21-043 (WWAN05) FY2021 Manhole Rehabilitation Project had to
meet two requirements, be the highest ranking on the evaluation list and not already be
on a rehabilitation list for the sanitary main segment to be replaced. To protect the
public interest, these manholes require rehabilitation. Manholes will be rehabilitated by
rebuilding the wall thickness with a cementitious material and sealing with an epoxy
coating or, in more severe cases, being removed, replaced and epoxy coated.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
During routine inspection of the sanitary mains, an evaluation of the manholes, manhole
benches and troughs are performed to determine the severity of deterioration in the
manhole structures and to prioritize them accordingly. The manholes chosen for the 21-
043 (WWAN05) FY2021 Manhole Rehabilitation Project had the highest ranking for
rehabilitation and the connected main was not on the Main Rehabilitation List.
The existing manholes will be rehabilitated with calcium aluminate and epoxy coating
and manhole benches and troughs will be rebuilt with fast-setting cementitious material
to maintain the intended function of the sewer system and secure a continuous service
to the public.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The cost of the construction project was bid at $413,011.00 with contingencies of
$82,602. Funds are available from the Sewer User Funds and have been budgeted and
appropriated to Project No. 21-043 (WWAN05).
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Not applicable.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
Alternative No. 1 – No Action
The Wastewater Department would take no action. The manholes would continue to
deteriorate until they eventually collapse warranting an emergency repair and possibly
endangering the public.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Resolution.
