Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into an engineering agreement with OHM Advisors for the Blueprint W. Franklinton Yale / Edwin Integrated Solutions Project. It is the objective of the City to mitigate DSRs (Designed Sewer Reliefs) overflows throughout the City’s collection system to the 10-year level of service. The City will evaluate and determine if this is best accomplished by eliminating inflow and infiltration into sanitary sewers, and constructing green infrastructure to retain and treat the resulting stormwater.

To accomplish this objective, the scope of work for this project will include all the requisite evaluation, formulation, and design to produce fully independent construction documents for the remediation of inflow and infiltration (I/I), green infrastructure (GI) technologies, and other related activities and/or documents necessary for project completion. A future modification is anticipated.

This project will also conduct field investigations, model all DOSD-owned storm water system facilities in the area, and devise, plan, and produce preliminary design documents for all green infrastructure facilities to accommodate storm water removed from the sanitary system by the I/I remediation efforts.

This work will occur in the Franklinton and Hilltop area, and the limits of the project are bounded by Broad Street and I-71 on its northern and southern extents and by Yale Ave. and Townsend Ave. on its eastern and western extents.

PROCUREMENT: The Division advertised for a Request for Proposals (RFP’s) for the subject services on the City’s Vendor Services website and in the City Bulletin in accordance with the overall provisions of Section 329 of the Columbus City Code. The Division of Sewerage and Drainage received fourteen (14) proposals on February 12th, 2016 from the following companies:
