SANITARY SEWER POINT REPAIR AT 50 WILLIAM WHITE BLVD.,
PROJECT NO. 24-033 (WWAN03) AND APPROVING THE
XECUTION OF THE SAME
SUMMARY:
This Resolution ratifies and approves award of a construction contract to Miller Pipeline,
LLC., for emergency sanitary sewer point repairs at 50 William White Blvd.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None
BACKGROUND:
On December 30, 2024, the Wastewater Department discovered a leakage in the force
main near 50 William White Boulevard. Initially, it was estimated that the repair would
be limited to remove and replace the broken pipe segment, but after extensive site
investigation, the Wastewater Department discovered the surrounding area and gravel
road were contaminated. Also, during the repair, another force main - break was
discovered downstream of Lift Station #3. To protect public health and safety and the
environment, an emergency repair was necessary to repair the broken pipe segments
and perform additional work required to remove and replace contaminated soil, remove
contaminated road base, import new material and regrade the road.
The repair work was performed under the Sanitary Sewer Point Repair multi-year
contract under which two contractors were qualified via competitive bid. An estimate was
prepared, and Miller Pipeline, LLC., was the lowest bidder and accepted the work.
The cost breakdown for the project is as follows:
Sanitary Sewer Replacement-related
Total: $ 7,084.53 3%
Surface Improvement Related
Total: $ 233,557.35 97%
Grand Total: $ 240,641.88 100%
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. 24-033 (WWAN03) - Emergency Point Repair.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Not applicable
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None
ALTERNATIVES:
