AGENDA TITLE: Approve Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for White Slough
Water Pollution Control Facility Pond Fencing Project 2013
MEETING DATE: November 20, 2013
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve specifications and authorize advertisement for bids for
White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility Pond Fencing Project
2013.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WSWPCF) has
four onsite storage ponds with a capacity of 100 million gallons and
working depths ranging from 7 to 9 feet. These ponds are primarily
used for effluent storage for use as agricultural irrigation or as storage of effluent not suitable for surface
water discharge due to plant operational issues. Currently, these ponds are only partially fenced on the
southern border.
In order to minimize the potential for liability, the full perimeter of the ponds needs to be fenced,
preventing unauthorized public access into the ponds. This project includes approximately 4,800 lineal
feet of fence and three access gates. The layout of the fencing will allow public access to the existing
wildlife viewing area at the northeast corner of Pond 3.
Specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date is
December 12, 2013. The project estimate is $100,000.
FISCAL IMPACT: This work has already been included in the FY 2013/14 budget.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding will be identified at project award.
