AGENDA TITLE: Plans and Specifications and Advertisement for Bids for White Slough Water Pollution Control
Facility Pond Recirculation Pump Replacements
MEETING DATE: April 5, 2000
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve the plans and specifications for the above project
and authorize advertising for bids.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project consists of replacing two 30 -year-old electrical motor -driven, mixed
flow, single stage, vertical lift pumps. One of the existing units is in immediate
need of replacement and the other shows signs of pending failure. These
pumps are needed to recirculate flows within the storage ponds.
One pump is budgeted in the 1999/2000 Capital Improvement Budget and a second pump in the 2000/2001 Capital
Improvement Budget. Due to the condition of the second pump and the cost savings that can be anticipated by
combining the two purchases, we are requesting that both pumps be bid at this time. The additional funds will be
requested from the Wastewater Capital Reserve and will be offset by retiring the funds budgeted in the 2000/2001
Capital Improvement Budget for this project. Installation will be performed by facility maintenance staff.
The specifications are on file at the White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility.
FUNDING: The money for this project will be coming from the 1999/2000 and 2000/01 Wastewater Capital
Improvement Budget. A request for appropriation of funding will be made at contract award.
Project Estimate: $24,000
Budgeted: 1999/2000 and 2000/01
Planned Bid Opening Date: April 20, 2000
