RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 9?- IS Y for approval of plans and specifications, authorization to
advertise a notice inviting bids, and approval to increase appropriations for the construction
of Chinquapin Sewer Lift Station, 6-Inch Force Main, and 8-Inch Sewer, CMWD Project No.
97-401, Contract No. 34941.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
This project involves the replacement of a sewer lift station, a 6-inch force main and addition
of approximately 180-feet of gravity sewer collector pipeline. The sewer lift station was
originally built in 1959 and requires upgrading to replace pumps and meet current safety
codes. There are several other reasons for the upgrade. The lift station is presently very
unreliable mechanically and electrically. The lift station operators are called out after hours
to fix problems approximately 200 hours every year. The existing lift station is in the sidewalk
of Carlsbad Boulevard and causes the operators to block the sidewalk and bike lane during
their daily maintenance activities. The new lift station will incorporate moving the station
approximately 180’ south of the existing site and constructing a new driveway/turnaround for
the operators to pull off of Carlsbad Boulevard for daily maintenance activities. New features
will also be added to make the lift station more reliable such as new pumps and controls, an
emergency generator and new alarm equipment. The existing and proposed lift station sites
are shown on Exhibit 1.
The Engineering staff has prepared plans and specifications to construct the new lift station,
6-inch force main, and 8-inch gravity sewer pipeline which are on file in the office of the
District Engineer and are incorporated herein by reference. In accordance with Section
3.28.080 of the Municipal Code, an Invitation to Bid will be published, and the contract will be
awarded to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder subject to the City Council’s approval.
Construction is anticipated to require approximately one hundred fifty (150) calendar days
from the date of issuance of the Notice to Proceed. Staff recommends approval of the
project plans and specifications and requests approval to proceed to bid for the replacement
of the sewer lift station, 6-inch force main, and 8-inch sewer to improve conveyance system
reliability.
