RECOMMENDATION Fayetteville City Administration recommends approval of an authorization totaling S100,000.00, said amount including a contract with Multi -Craft Contracting, Inc. of Springdale, Arkansas in the amount of 595,000.00 plus a contingency in the amount of S5,000.00. BACKGROUND The Noland wastewater Treatment Plant includes ten effluent filter cells providing the final polishing of wastewater before release to the receiving streams. These units were constructed in 1988 and have been in constant service since said date. In recent months, the plant operations have experienced failures in the filter media support systems, causing loss of filter performance and media. At first this was demed an isolated incident; however, to date three of the units have failed, the most recent replacement unit rebuild being completed this month. It is evident that the remaining seven filter units are in a similar condition and may be expected to experience similar failures in the very near terns. The filtering process is an essential component of the wastewater plant, as filtration is necessary to meet the effluent limits set forth in the city's current NPDES discharge permit. The recognition of this potential threat to treatment plant compliance is an esculated concern due to the nearing rainy season during which all filtering units must be in service to process the high wet weather flows. Due to the imminent threat to operations, the possibility of effluent limit violation and the escalating patterns of failure; rehabilitation of the remaining filter cells is a very high priority need of the Fayetteville Wastewater Treatment Facilities. DISCUSSION fhe rehabilitation of the existing three filter cells have been accomplished by OMI using plant labor, operation/maintenance budgets and completion of repairs as fill-in work. This prior work has invovled one -at -a time failures over multple months, rendering time less 1 • City Council Meegg of October 7, 2003 Agenda Item Number of a consideration. The collective rehabilitation of the remaining seven filter cells is a major undertaking outside the scope of OMI's agreement and beyond their current resouces. This activity is classified as an emergency capital improvement project, for which an outside contractor must be retained. As a measure of probable costs, OMI did dcvlcop an estimate of cost for rehabilitation of the remaining sewen filter cells, said estimate being S90,993.93. A set of contact specifications for the work, materials, schedules and constraints was developed reflecting OMI's accumulated experience with three units and knowledge of plant operations. These specifications were created to enable the subsequent solicitation of proposals. Under State of Arkansas Procurement Law, Section 19-11-203, the maintenance of technical equipment (such as wastewater treatment plant effluent filters) is exempted from competitive bidding. Furthermore, due to the specialized nature of the work, the interaction/coordination with delicate wastewater plant operations and the emergency nature of this need, the waiver of competitive bidding requirements is deemed to also meet the City of Fayeteville's criteria for waiver of bidding. Accordingly, OMI has contacted Multi -Craft Contracting, Inc. to provide a proposal for the engineering filter rehabilitation and has negotiated a lump sum price of 595,000.00 for completion of the filter rehabilitation in accordance with the specifications. Considering the fact that the negotiated contract price transfers some risk to the contractor and the bid price includes 100% performance and payment bonds, it is deemed a reasonable and competitive proposal. The total completion time is predicted at 70 days, subject to plant flows and operator directions. BUDGET IMPACT This $100,000.00 expenditure for effluent filter system rehabilitation was not forseen or included in the Fiscal Year 2003 Budget. Due to the Wastewater Treatment Department's favorable financial outcomes on current year capital budget projects plus the ability to defer other planned capital purchases, the funds to complete the emergency filter rehabilitation work can be secured without a Budget Adjustment. The rehabilitation of the remaining sewen filter cells is deemed the highest priority need for the current year capital acitivities. 2 STAFF tVIEW FORM - FINANCIAL OBLIGATI' X AGENDA R^QUF.S'i CONTRACT REVIEW GRANT REVIEW For the Fayetteville City Council Meeting of: October 7, 2003 FROM: Greg Boettcher Name Water & Wastewater Wastewater Treatment Plant DivisiorL Department R s� r1 ACTION REQUIRED: Passage of a or a contract with MultiCraft for the emergency repairs of the effluent filtering system at the Noland Wastewater Treatment Plant.
