City Project No. 2496 (Project) rehabilitates 2,060 linear feet of stormwater pipe that is experiencing severe root intrusion. The failed clay and concrete pipe, comprising sections of former Yakima County Drainage Improvement Districts Nos. 4, 29 and 38, requires frequent and extensive root removal efforts by City Stormwater crews to maintain water flow and avoid back-ups. The Project will utilize cured-in-place (CIPP) technology to line the existing pipe with a continuous liner to prevent the intrusion of roots.
HLA Engineering and Land Surveying, Inc. provided the Project design and bid documents under City Contract No. 2019-099. The City utilized the procedure established by the State of Washington for competitively bidding projects. Three contractors submitted bids, with Michels Corporation submitting the lowest bid of $244,495. The attached resolution and contract provide the specific elements of the agreed upon pipe rehabilitation.
The project is funded through the Stormwater Capital Fund 442. |
