CITY COUNCIL MEMO
SUBJECT: Approval of a resolution for rebuilding one (1) Fairbanks -Morse 20", 100hp Jet
Mixing Pump by Electronic Motor Center used at the West Side Water Resource
Recovery Facility (WRRF).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends repair of one (1) Jet Mixing Pump by Electronic Motor Center for the West
Side WRRF in the amount of $30,500.12.
BACKGROUND:
The West Side Recovery Facility treats an average of 7.2 million gallons of wastewater per day
(2017, Annual AVG). During normal -flow operation pre-screened process water is pumped
through the facility's flow equalization pumps. This operation allows the wastewater stream to
be flow -equalized, utilizing the facility's 7 -million -gallon Equalization (EQ) Basin, before entering
the biological nutrient removal reactors. Equalizing process flow provides several operational
advantages, primarily a more stable environment for the microbial treatment process. The liquid
contents of the EQ Basin are kept in suspended solution by one of two 20", 1 00h Jet Mixing
pumps. Recently one of the units experienced an internal failure requiring it to be sent off for
disassembly and repair inspection by a local repair facility.
DISCUSSION:
One (1) Jet Mixing Pump was recently shipped to Electric Motor Center in Springdale for
disassembly and repair inspection. The units cause of failure was determined to be the output
bearing housing and normal parts wear after 10 years of operation. Considering the purchase
price for a new unit was quoted at approximately $118,000 staff recommends a complete
overhaul rebuild for the Jet Mixing unit. The rebuild will also be tax exempt since the jet mixing
pump is involved directly with the biological treatment process.
Because it was necessary to have the repair facility disassemble and inspect the unit to
determine the extent of hidden and unknown damage to equipment already purchased, a bid
waiver and/or formal sealed bidding is not necessary according to Arkansas Procurement Law
R6:19-11-203, Subsection 14 (EE) "hidden or unknown damages".
