Recommended Action
I move that the Board of Public Utilities approve Task Order No. 03 Under Services Agreement No. AGR17-45 with Alpha Southwest, Inc. in the amount of $77,866.52, and a contingency of $5,000.00, for a total of $82,866.52, plus Applicable Gross Receipts Tax, for the Purpose of Chlorine Generator Equipment Acquisition and Installation for Guaje Booster Station No. 2.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the BPU approve the motion as presented.
Body
This is the third of four Chlorine Generator Equipment purchases we have planned for in Water Production in the FY 2017 through FY2020 time frame. It is the only purchase scheduled for FY 2019. This unit is slated to be installed at the Guaje Booster Station No. 2 to replace the aging equipment at that booster station. Staff is requesting this Task Order be approved so that we may move forward with the purchase of the new chlorine generating unit for the Water Production system.
The scope of this Task Order # 03 is identical to the original scope as detailed in the original Services Agreement (AGR 17-45) and the scope of Task Order # 01 Amendment # 1 and Task Order # 02 except the installation will be at a different location with slightly different labor and material conditions. The schedule has been developed to accommodate the seasonal variation of Water Production requirements and is to be completed during the colder low water use period of FY 2019. We have an exact estimate for what this work will entail but we are requesting a small $5,000 contingency just in case something comes up in the field during installation that causes some unforeseen costs.
