DISCUSSION On September 21, 1999 (M&C C-17651), the City Council authorized the award of a contract to ACE Pipe Cleaning, Inc. for the cleaning of large diameter sanitary sewer mains. The specifications and contract documents included a stipulation giving the City the option to renew the contract three times under the same terms, conditions, and unit prices The Water Department wishes to exercise the first of these options at this time. The work to be performed under this contract consists of closed-circuit color television inspection, high- pressure jet cleaning and heavy mechanical cleaning of large diameter sanitary sewer collector mains and major mains in various locations in the City This project is part of the wastewater collection system preventative maintenance program to eliminate sanitary sewer overflows and backups Cleaning of the large diameter sewers on a regularly scheduled basis will restore hydraulic capacity of the existing pipelines and reduce the potential of sewer overflows The Water Department is not currently equipped or staffed to perform cleaning of sanitary sewer mains in sizes ranging up to 96-inches in diameter The bid documents included a stipulation that the total quantities listed may not reflect actual quantities to be used, and are based on the budgeted amount of $200,000 Final payments will be made based on actual measured quantities. M/WBE - A waiver of the goal for M/VVBE subcontracting requirements was requested and approved by the M/WBE Office because the purchase of services is from a source where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible.
