Explanation:
The 2007/2008 Wastewater System Master Plan identified the need to implement several capital improvement projects related to the continued assessment, renewal, and replacement of the major components of the City’s sewer collection system.
The primary goal of the Gravity Sewer System Condition Assessment, Renewal, and Replacement Program is to reduce the amount of inflow and infiltration (I/I) into the Southern Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant, and this program is also known as the Inflow/Infiltration Reduction Program.
This phase of the Inflow/Infiltration Reduction Program will address necessary repairs, rehabilitation, and/or replacement of existing sewer manholes located within several sanitary sewer basins which have been previously identified for rehabilitation, and achieving the greatest benefit to the City in terms of inflow and infiltration reduction.
Department of Public Utilities personnel prepared the related technical specifications and contract documents for the project.
On April 21, 2015 the project was advertised for construction services, and on May 21, 2015 four (4) bid proposals were received by the Office of the City Clerk and publicly opened at the Southern Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant with the following results:
