Authorize payment to Kennedy Industries for emergency repairs to Pump 1 at the Warner Creek Lift Station, for a cost not to exceed $14,870


BOARD ACTION REQUESTED:

Authorize payment to Kennedy Industries for emergency repairs to Pump 1 at the Warner Creek Lift Station, for a cost not to exceed $14,870.

BACKGROUND:

The Warner Creek Lift Station is a bi-plex (2 pumps) station, responsible for pumping over 75,000 gallons of sanitary sewerage daily. On October 28, 2020, Pump 2 at the Warner Creek Lift Station suffered a catastrophic impeller failure requiring emergency repairs to the failed pump. Immediate repair was necessary due to the high risk of relying on a single pump to carry the high volume of sewerage this station moves daily. Kennedy Industries was able to remove and rebuild Pump 2, bringing the station back to full capacity in a timely manner.
