Summary & Background: This request is a one-time procurement for the purchase of one (1) MC1312-3S3X Combination Jet/Vac Truck to provide cleaning and maintenance of sewer lines, storm drains, and pipelines to ensure continued operational efficiency and reliability of the County’s wastewater infrastructure system.
Scope of Work: The Combination Jet/Vac Truck will perform sewer line cleaning, storm drain maintenance, debris removal, and pipeline system maintenance primarily in the North Fulton County service area. This piece of equipment has been specified to meet the needs of the North Fulton Sewer System maintenance protocols and will be used to allow the Public Works Department to comply with the Capacity, Management, Operations and Maintenance (CMOM) program that is required by the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD).
Community Impact: The Vacuum Truck will be used daily to clean and remove blockages within sewer lines throughout the community, increasing the effectiveness of the sewer system. This equipment will enhance the Department’s ability to maintain critical wastewater infrastructure, reduce the risk of sewer backups and overflows, and improve response times for sewer system maintenance and emergency operations, thereby supporting public health, safety, and environmental protection throughout the community.
Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works request the purchase of a MC1312-3S3X-Combination Jet/Vac Truck.
Project Implications: Without this equipment, the Department may experience delays in sewer system maintenance and emergency response operations, increasing the potential for system blockages, service interruptions, environmental concerns, and higher long-term maintenance costs.
Community Issues/Concerns: No community issues/concerns have been raised to the Department of Public Works.
Department Issues/Concerns: No issues or concerns have been raised by the Department of Public Works.
