Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Contract with Fuquay, Inc. for the Cycle 3 - Basins 4 and 5 Manhole Rehabilitation Project.
Body
The City is required to continue our Wastewater Collection System Rehabilitation program in order to comply with the Texas Commission the Environmental Quality's (TCEQ) Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone Protection Program. This project requires that wastewater collection systems located over the Edwards Aquifer be inspected and rehabilitated every five years. The elimination of defects will not only help to protect the Edwards Aquifer but will also reduce inflow and infiltration entering the City's wastewater collection system, thereby reducing the City's treatment cost. The City has completed the inspection of 14 sub-basins to determine areas that require rehabilitation for this project.
These recent inspections of Basins 4 and 5 have indicated deteriorating conditions of some manholes located within the basins. Deteriorating manholes can lead to infiltration of water into the wastewater line, and if left untreated, the failure of the manhole. This project will consist of the extensive rehabilitation of 50 manholes, which will restore the service life of the manholes and wastewater basin.
The Utilities and Environmental Services Department used BuyBoard to contract the project. Fuquay, Inc. provided the BuyBoard amount of $410,640.40 on March 26th, 2024.
Cost: $410,640.40
