STOCKTON CITY COUNCIL
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF A PUMP FROM G3 ENGINEERING, INC. FOR THE WASTEWATER RECOVERY CENTER NITRIFYING BIOTOWERS The Municipal Utilities Department (MUD) Wastewater Utility operates the Regional Wastewater Collection Facility (RWCF), an advanced tertiary treatment plant with a capacity of 55 million gallons per day (MGD) located next to the San Joaquin River; and The RWCF secondary treatment process uses a nitrifying biotower filtration system to improve wastewater quality by removing ammonia; and The nitrifying biotowers use pumps to move treated wastewater to tertiary treatment at the WRC; and The pumps at the RWCF are replaced at the end of their useful life in accordance with a pump maintenance program; and The lead time for purchasing a replacement pump may be up to 36 weeks, and it is industry best practice to keep large equipment with long procurement lead times readily accessible when redundant equipment is not installed, in case of equipment failure; and Staff solicited three bids for the purchase of a Cascade Model 24 mixed flow pump with a 30-inch discharge; and The bid submitted by G3 Engineering, Inc. is the lowest responsive bid, regular in all aspects and meets the City’s needs; now, therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STOCKTON, AS FOLLOWS:
Authorize the purchase of a replacement pump and motor for the nitrifying biotower at the WRC from G3 Engineering, Inc. in the amount of $186,319.15. //
