APPROVAL OF MEETING AGENDA
OLD BUSINESS/UPDATES:
a. White River Use Attainability Analysis (Minerals)
In the early part of June we anticipate presenting our case to the ADEQ. The City's position
is that the Noland WWTP needs to be operating under discharge limitations that are both
technically defensible and allow the City to effectively and efficiently operate the treatment
facility.
b. Ozone Disinfection System Project
Construction is complete with the exception of the electrical coordination study and arc flash
labeling (J L Bry-son). The equipment has been operated by CH2M/OMI for the City since
March 10, 2016. Final payment to Blue In Green has been processed. Final completion
with J L Bry-son, Inc. is anticipated May 2016.
Mauling Address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville,AR 72701
c. Ramsey— Overcrest (aka Old Wire Road) Sanitary Sewer Improvements.
Construction started on April 14th. Phase I is the boring of the sewer line under Ash
Street and Old Wire Road.
The anticipated completion date is October 29, 2016.
NEW BUSINESS:
a. Formation of a Nutrient Trading Group
The cities of Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers and Bentonville have agreed through
resolutions in each municipality to form an informal cooperative group for the purpose of:
1. Joint development of nutrient water quality trading regulations for proposal to the
Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality.
2. Exploring potential nutrient water training projects.
3. Participate in joint projects as approved by the members' respective City Councils or
water/wastewater commissions, including the hiring of professionals and contractors to
do work on behalf of the group.
b. Proposed Engineering Contract with McGoodwin, Williams and Yates
McGoodwin, Williams and Yates Engineering Firm (MWY) was selected to complete the
Water Master Plan Update and to design the Dinsmore Trail water Line replacement
project.
McGoodwin, Williams and Yates (MWY) was selected for these two tasks in a formal
engineering selection committee meeting on April 1, 2016 (RFQ 16-01). The contract
scope and the not to exceed costs of$182,077 were negotiated by City Utilities staff.
The contract includes two tasks: the Water Master Plan Update, and the design for
replacing approximately 3000 If of water line on Dinsmore Trail.
The previous update to the Water Master Plan was 2011 (by MWY). The Water Master
Plan Update provides a planning tool for our future Capital Improvement Program projects.
The Dinsmore Trail water line replacement design is requested due to the condition of the
existing water line.
STAFF REQUESTS THIS BE FORWARDED TO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR
APPROVAL
c. Noland WWTP Gearbox Rebuilds
On 16 October, 2015, the City Council passed and approved Resolution 174-15 awarding
Alliance Pump and Mechanical, Inc. Bid 15-48 to rebuild the seven (7) gearboxes in the
Amount of$78,950.00. Since that time, the gearboxes were removed, delivered to
Alliance Pump and Mechanical Inc., and disassembled for inspection. Upon inspection,
additional items were found in need of repair. The additional repairs total $43,521.00. With
2
this change order, the total amount to rebuild and repair the gearboxes is $122,471.00
plus applicable taxes. Even with the additional repairs needed, the cost is significantly
less than purchasing new gearboxes.
d. Approval of the 2016 USGS Joint Funding Agreement
In 2015 the City of Fayetteville modified its contract with USGS to begin monitoring both
flow and major pollutants at two location on major outfalls from the City, Town Branch and
Mud Creek . This data is being gathered continuously and through sampling at various
times in order to more closely model the pollutant concentrations in these streams. This
combined with the flow data will give accurate information on the total amount of the
various constituents being measured leaving the City at these points.
The proposed program would remain unchanged from 2015 and include a continuous
monitor stream gauge with sampling and determination of various pollutant concentrations
at two locations within the City of Fayetteville. These locations would track continuous
information regarding flow, turbidity, temperature and conductance. The sampling at
these locations would provide a mechanism in which these constituents could be related
to other pollutants such as total suspended solids (TSS) essentially providing relatively
accurate continuous pollutant loading information.
