Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The Bay View Water Reclamation Plant houses the traditional treatment facilities which can handle up to 195 million gallons per day, and the wet weather treatment facilities which can handle up to 205 million gallons per day. The Plant as well as the outside pump stations employ numerous pumps, valves, gates, motors, actuators, etc. The condition of some of the equipment used in the treatment facilities to maintain National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) compliance is of great concern. Various improvements to these components throughout the facilities need to be undertaken to maintain a reliable wastewater treatment system. The Division intends to seek formal as well as informal proposals for rebuilding and/or replacing pumps, valves, gates, motors, actuators, etc. as needed in order to maintain compliance with the Plant's NPDES discharge permit and to provide the necessary redundancy of such equipment at the Plant. Some equipment will require proprietary parts for rebuild and others can only be purchased from authorized sole sources. For that, the Division is requesting a waiver of all competitive bidding provisions of TMC Chapter 187.
