FOR EMERGENCY SANITARY SEWER POINT REPAIR AT THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT DRYING BED DRAIN LINE, PROJECT NO. 20-059 (WWAN03) AND APPROVING THE PURCHASING AGENT’S EXECUTION OF THE SAME SUMMARY: This Resolution ratifies and approves the award of a construction contract to Parker Excavating, Inc. for emergency sanitary sewer point repairs at the Wastewater Treatment Plant Drying Bed Drain Line. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: None BACKGROUND: On September 1st, 2023, the Wastewater Treatment Plant reported that they had backup issues in the drying bed drain line. A television crew was sent out to inspect the drain line, but they could not televise to the end of the pipe segment due to debris in the line. After the line was cleaned and televised again, they discovered a large joint offset and an obstruction in the last segment of the pipe and could not make through the entire line. An emergency repair was performed to fix the joint offset and remove the obstacle, so the line would drain properly and not cause any backups. The repair work was performed under the Sanitary Sewer Point Repair multi-year contract under which three contractors were qualified via competitive bid. An estimate was prepared, and Parker Excavating was the lowest bidder and accepted the work. The cost breakdown for the project is as follows: Sanitary Sewer Replacement-related Total: $ 4,374.92 100% Surface Improvement Related Total: $ 0.00 0% Grand Total: $ 4,374.92 100% FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Funding for this project came from the sanitary sewer rehabilitation budget funded by the Sewer User Fund. Funding was available and had been budgeted, appropriated, and allocated to Project No. 20-059 (WWAN03). BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: None ALTERNATIVES: Not approve the Resolution, but this would require a finding that there was not an emergency condition. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the Resolution. ATTACHMENTS: 1. 02-26-24 Wastewater Treatment Plant Drying Bed Drain Line Emergency Point Repair Attachment
