Summary & Background: Department of Public Works recommends approval to increase spending authority to complete projects which provide standby miscellaneous construction - wastewater system services.

 

Scope of Work: These standby contracts consist of providing all labor, equipment and materials necessary for the construction, installation, and repair of sewer mains, wastewater service lines, and projects associated with the spill mitigation program to reduce the inflow and infiltration of storm water into the sanitary system within both North and South Fulton County service areas. The work includes providing an emergency wastewater main repair crew on an as needed basis as directed by Public Works staff. 

The additional authority is needed as certain projects cannot be completed within the budget year in 2021 due to material availability delay, contractor’s delay due to labor shortage as a result of COVID-19 pandemic, and inclement weather condition. If the increase is not approved, projects will be delayed until the 2022 contract is executed.

The below list requires this approval to complete the listed projects:

                     Fifteen (15) Manhole repairs and rehabilitation at Azalea Drive

                     900 linear feet (LF) of 30-inch RCP pipe repair and creek bank restoration in Roswell and Alpharetta.

                     Replacement of 700 lf of 8-inch VCP in Sandy Springs

 

Community Impact: If these repair/rehabilitation are not made it may lead to a pipe/manhole failure which will result in a sewer spill and may have an adverse impact to the human health and environment.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works recommends approval to increase spending authority of the contract with Wade Coots Company, Inc.

 

Project Implications: Without the assistance of on-call, standby contractors, the amount of repair work that can be completed by Fulton County will be limited, especially in emergency situations.

 

Community Issues/Concerns: No concerns have been raised to Public Works staff.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: Public Works does not have any concern or issues.
