Explanation
1. BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a professional engineering services agreement with Burgess & Niple Inc. for the Mound Street Floodwall and West Columbus Local Protection Project (WCLPP) Repairs Project, in an amount up to $249,934.26, for Division of Sewerage & Drainage, Stormwater Section CIP No. 611708-100000.
The initial phase of work for this Project will involve reviewing historic data and completing field investigations associated with the existing concrete floodwall located along the east side of the Scioto River, between Main Street and the Norfolk Southern/CSX railroad bridge. Similarly, this Project will also initially investigate the spalling and cracked panels of the existing concrete wall sections along the West Columbus Local Protection Project (WCLPP), also known as the Franklinton Floodwall.
Following the initial data review and field investigations, recommendations will be prepared for the rehabilitation and/or repair of the Mound Street Floodwall and the damaged WCLPP panels. A planned contract renewal will then be negotiated for the design and development of plans for the rehabilitation and/or replacement of the existing Mound Street wall. Similarly, the planned contract renewal will enable the development of effective and sustainable repairs to those panels of the WCLPP which exhibit significant spalling and cracking.
