ä's:l[?fl ¿':,ii,ii:JiilJT,ff ::f iffi if lSliå]îii:ffi ïJDAFT)
skimmer chain and flight equipment installed in 1990. Through the years, small parts have been replaced;
however; the major parts such as sprockets, flights, drive chains, and shafts now need to be replaced.
There are two DAFT tanks at the White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WSWPCF). ln 2013, a
set of skimmer chain and flight collector equipment was purchased and installed for the No. 1 DAFT.
Both DAFTs are needed to maintain the manufacturer's performance criteria and continuous compliance
with discharge permit requirements.
Tenco Hydro, lnc., is the sole source equipment distributor that designed and built the original skimmer
chain and flight collector equipment for both DAFTs. The equipment requires no special construction.
Once the new equipment is installed by staff, the No. 2 DAFT will provide the operational performance
necessary to maintain continuous compliance with discharge permit requirements.
Per Lodi Municipal Code Section 3.20.070, Bidding, the bidding process may be dispensed when the City
Council determines that the purchase or method of purchase is in the best interests of the City. Staff
recommends purchase of the skimmer chain and flight collector equipment from Tenco Hydro, lnc.
FTSCAL IMPAGT: lf the No. 2 DAFT is not rehabilitated with the new skimmer chain and flight
collector, existing equipment could fail, requiring an emergency purchase.
Additionally, WSWPCF could have problems maintaining discharge permit
requirements without the rehabilitation.
