RECOMMENDATION
We recommend the City Council award the bid for the Phase I Demolition of the Old Main Line Lift
Station to C&C Demo Inc., of Orange, Texas, in the amount of $12,500.
BACKGROUND .
Our old Main Line LS is in need of rehabilitation. It was originally constructed in 1960. Conventional
rehabilitation would be cost prohibitive; as none of the existing valves function, and the LS does not
meet current TCEO Design Criteria, especially in the area of confined space safety. Our solution is to
convert this wet well/dry-well LS into'a wet well only LS, complimented by a single submersible
- -
- (expandable to two),-and multiple self-priming pumps to yield adequate capacity.:This eliminates the
current LS's design shortcomings and allows our personnel to work in a much safer environment. For
months, we have been looking into re-commissioning the old Main Line Lift Station in order to get our
system-back upao peak capacity. Toward this end, we have developed a plan o split this work into
small, disfihct phases to reduce costs and to get more local participation. Phase j of the plan is to
demolish the existing interior equipment/piping in the LS. Phase II will be the structural modifications
necessary to bring the LS bacKup to service,conditiohs, by coating the interior, sealing off some doors,
vents and vrindows, and replacing some doors. Phase Ill. will install/reinstall new/existing pumps and
.piping, placing-the LS bacK into active. service. Phase II &-III may be combined if we cannot get.
