Explanation

 

1. BACKGROUND: The Intermodal Sanitary Subtrunk Extension (ISSE) project was initiated in response to commercial and industrial growth associated with the Northern Pickaway County Joint Economic Development District (JEDD) and consists of the construction of approximately 8,550 lineal feet of 54-inch micro tunnel through soft ground with mixed face conditions.  The subtrunk will provide sanitary sewer service to approximately 4,374 acres within the JEDD tributary service area.  The scope of work is to perform Professional Construction Management (PCM) for the Intermodal Sanitary Subtrunk Extension Phase 1 project.

 

Subtrunk extensions that serve larger overall areas are considered Citywide, 99.

 

2. PROCUREMENT: The project was formally advertised on the Vendor Services and Bonfire websites from January 16, 2020 to February 21, 2020.  The city received three (3) responses.  All proposals were deemed responsive and were fully evaluated according to Columbus City Code Section 329.  MarshWagner, formerly iTunnel Consulting, was selected for the professional construction management award.

8. Economic Impact: The Intermodal Sanitary Subtrunk Extension (ISSE) project was initiated in response to commercial and industrial growth associated with the Northern Pickaway County Joint Economic Development District (JEDD) and consists of the construction of approximately 8,550 lineal feet of 54-inch micro tunnel through soft ground with mixed face conditions.  The subtrunk will provide sanitary sewer service to approximately 4,374 acres within the JEDD tributary service area.  The micro tunnel begins near the intersection of Rickenbacker Parkway and Thoroughbred Drive, near the entrance to the Norfolk and Southern Intermodal facility, and travels in an easterly direction along the south side of Rickenbacker Parkway to its terminus just east of Little Walnut Creek along Airbase Road.  Along the alignment the micro tunnel will pass beneath the main entrance to the Intermodal facility as well as State Route 762.  The micro tunneling piping will likely consist of 54-inch RCP with an integral HDPE liner for the entire alignment and shall be excavated using a slurry micro tunnel boring machine.  The project also includes the construction of 7 micro tunnel launch and receiving shafts at depths ranging from 20 to 35.  All construction shafts will require water tight construction. 

 

9.   Fiscal Impact: An appropriation and transfer of $953,856.71 is necessary within the Sanitary General Obligation Bond Fund 6109; an expenditure of $3,950,398.71 is needed; as well as amending the 2019 Capital Improvement Budget to align the expenditure.
