The project will remove and replace the deteriorated Small Sewer Mains and Manholes for the sites listed below. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: None BACKGROUND: The Wastewater Department maintains a priority list of deteriorating sanitary sewer mains. All the sites on the project were taken from this list due to their deteriorated structural condition. To protect the public interest, these mains require rehabilitation. The cost breakdown for the project is as follows: Description Sewer Related Surface Related Council District 1 Remove and Replace $1,155,742.00 $402,346.25 2, 3 & 4 Project % 74% 26% The total cost of the project is estimated at $1,869,706.25, including contingencies. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The cost of the construction project was bid at $1,558,088.25 with contingencies of $311,618.00.

BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: None ALTERNATIVES: Alternative No. 1 - No Action If no rehabilitation is performed on the collection system, the condition of the sanitary mains would continue to deteriorate until an emergency repair is required.
