Scope of Work
Under the direction of the Public Works Director or designee, the Contractor shall furnish all material, labor, equipment, and supervision to perform the maintenance and repair services for the wells as requested by the City. The Contractor shall perform such work in a through and professional manner.
The Contractor shall secure the well site and its equipment at all-time throughout the duration of work. The Contractor is also responsible for discharging of treated water after rehabilitation of well into an appropriate drainage system in a manner that complies with NDPES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) regulations and permits.
Currently, the City’s water system consists of two (2) operational wells, Well 11A and Well
15. The Contractor will need to maintain and repair the system, as needed, with the same components. Equivalent components will not be accepted and would exclude the Contractor from working on the wells and would constitute a breach of contract.
Well 11A is a 350-horsepower vertical turbine assembly and Well 15, is a 250-horsepower vertical turbine assembly. The Contractor is required to service these motors periodically at the City’s request. These services include but are not limited to removal of motor, clean, dip, brake, rewind, balance, voltage testing, replace bearings, re-installation, and start-up.
The City also has the need to rehabilitate the existing wells when there is a decrease in capacity, bacteriologial problem, or other well production issue. The Contractor is required to provide appropriate tools, equipment, materials, and personnel to sucessfully complete the cleaning and disinfection of the wells. Prior to commencement of work, the Contractor and the City shall discuss, review, and evaluate well records to recommend possible treatment methods depending on the condition of each well. The Contractor shall submit to the City a detail proposal including the type of treatment, chemical uses, quantity, duration, man-hours, and cost for final approval.
