Title: To authorize the Director of Public Utilities to modify and increase a purchase order with the Righter Company Inc. for the Sludge Storage Tank Cover Replacement for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage, to authorize the expenditure of $14,344.00.00 from the Sewerage System Operating Fund, and to declare an emergency. ($14,344.00)
Explanation

The purpose of this legislation is to authorize the Director of Public Utilities to modify and increase a contract with the Righter Company Inc. for Sludge Storage Tank Cover Replacement at the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant.

Formal bids were opened by the Director of Public Utilities on November 12, 2003 for Sludge Storage Tank Replacement at the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant. The Righter Company Inc. was awarded a contract for the project, EL-004175 in accordance with Ordinance Number 0120-2004, Passed March 1, 2004.

Originally the pipes were to be removed by the personnel of Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant. It became apparent that the removal of the piping in the tanks is a sizeable undertaking and complex. Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant personnel do not have the training or the experience for this type of endeavor. Therefore, it is necessary for the Righter Company to remove the piping. This additional work remains within the scope of work of the contract.

SUPPLIER: The Righter Company Inc. (31-0889208)

FISCAL IMPACT: $14,344.00 is needed for this modification and is budgeted.

Emergency legislation is being requested so that there is not an interruption of the project.
