AB # 450 TITLE:
MTG. 7/27/w AUTHORIZATION FOR PURCHASE OF
DEPT. PTTR PIPELINE MATERIAL FOR CAPITAL PROJECT NO. 3824
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends the Board adopt Resolution No. /o b / authorizing the purchase of pipeline
material for the construction of Santa Fe II Transmission Main Relocation, CMWD Project No. 99-103.,
capital project number 3824.
ITEM EXPLANATION
The Santa Fe II Reservoir is located south of Palomar Airport Road near Ranch0 Santa Fe Road in the City
of San Marcos. A land development project referred to as Meadowlark Estates is now under construction
around the reservoir. The existing transmission main to the reservoir is located within an easement. The
grading operations, for Meadowlark Estates, call for construction of a large earthen embankment containing
a new major road called White Sands Drive and a large concrete culvert to convey surface runoff through
the earthen embankment. The toe of the earthen embankment is adjacent to the existing transmission
main making access to this major facility hazardous and difficult. In addition, the storm drain culvert
redirects runoff directly to the transmission main resulting in significant erosion of the cover material over
the transmission main.
Staff has reviewed this situation and recommends relocating approximately 2800 feet of the transmission
main to White Sands Drive. Benefits of this relocation are: First, this will enable operations and
maintenance staff to reach the pipeline and its valves directly from a road way surface. Second, this will
eliminate the need to construct major erosion control measures in a sensitive habitat area to protect the
transmission main. Third, this will eliminate the potential of damaging the large earthen embankment
should a break occur in the transmission main.
Because Meadowlark Estates is under construction and there is a long lead time to receive the needed
material, it is recommended that the pipeline material be preordered. The pre-ordered material consists of
54-forty foot long, and 52-twelve foot long sections of 36-inch diameter cement mortar lined and coated
steel pipe.
In accordance with Section 3.28.120 of the Municipal Code, Notice to Bidders was published and Requests
for Bid (RFB) were sent to three vendors. Two responsive bids were received. The lowest responsive bid
was received from Ameron International. Bid tabulation follows:
Ameron International
Northwest Pipe Company
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
$170,245.00
$198,507.00
The Planning Director has reviewed this project and EIA99-01 Negative Declaration was published on
February 15, 1999.
FISCAL IMPACT
The developer of Meadowlark Estates, Lennar Homes, is willing to install the relocated pipeline by
reimbursement agreement. This agreement is now in preparation and will be submitted to the Board for
approval in the near future. The Board directed the Finance Department to appropriate funds for the
purchase of this material in CMWD Resolution No. 1055, dated June 8, 1999. Funds in the amount of
$450,000 have been appropriated for this project.
