RE:                                          Proposed Amendment No. 4

                                          Contract No. 1067

MOTION

Upon recommendation of Navid Mehram, Chief Operating Officer - Wastewater Operating Services, the Board of Directors (Board) of the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA), authorizes the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to enter into Contract No. 1067, “Proposed Amendment No. 4” with Detroit Pump & Mfg. Co, with no increase in cost for a total cost not to exceed $1,100,000.00 and an increased duration of 211 days for a total contract duration of 2,238 days; and authorizes the CEO to take such other action as may be necessary to accomplish the intent of this vote. 

BACKGROUND

The Wastewater Team operates and maintains many pumps to convey wastewater, including dewatering tanks, provide flushing water, etc. The wastewater that these pumps convey contains abrasive materials like rocks, gravel, and many other solids that originate from the combined sewer systems that are upstream of the WRRF and CSO facilities. The solid-bearing wastewater that our pumps convey increases the frequency of wear and damage that our pumps experience.

JUSTIFICATION

Wastewater pump failures can occur at any time based on the amount of gravel and solids that enter a facility, especially during a storm event. GLWA uses contractors to assist with repairs, including troubleshooting or rebuilds. This amendment will provide for continuous pump repair services while GLWA works on procurement for a replacement contract.  Regular repairs and rebuilds of our pumps are required for maintaining compliance.
