Mixed Flow Pump for the Utility Operations Department,
Wastewater Treatment Division.
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend the City Council award the bid for the Repair of One Vertical Line Shaft Mixed Flow
Pump to PEMSCO, of Beaumont, TX, in the amount of $9,040.
BACKGROUND
Over the past few years, we have replaced two of the three original pumps in the Main VVWTP
Effluent Lift Station. We kept the old units/parts, along with the last of the original pumps, and
brought this equipment to a local machine shop for evaluation. It was determined that we could use
this equipment to re-build a pump to replace the last old unit, get a 1-year warranty, and expect a
normal service life from this re-built pump. Five (5) bid packets were sent out and four (4) bids were
received on February 9, 2005.
