Explanation

The purpose of this legislation is to authorize the Director of Public Utilities to modify and increase a contract with Technical Construction Specialties Inc. 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. Technical Construction Specialties Inc. Inc. was awarded a contract for the project, EL-004177 in accordance with Ordinance Number 0120-2004, Passed March 1, 2004.

During the project, it was noticed that the concrete was deteriorating down deeper into the tanks then originally anticipated. This is partially due to rusted rebar located near the top rim of the tanks. Furthermore, tensioning bars and support plates buried under the surface of the tanks interior walls are near the deteriorated concrete and need to be replaced to extend the useful life. Each case is caused by the construction process used many years ago when the tanks were built and need to be upgraded.

SUPPLIER: Technical Construction Specialties Inc. Inc. (34-1479038)

FISCAL IMPACT: $38,800.00 is needed for this modification and is budgeted.

Emergency legislation is being requested so that there are not interruptions in the concrete repair and upgrade of the tanks.
