Summary & Background: Department of Public Works recommends approval to increase spending authority to complete projects that provide standby miscellaneous construction for 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 the 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 shortages as a result of COVID-19 pandemic, and inclement weather conditions. If the increase is not approved, projects will be delayed until the 2022 contract is executed.
The below requires this approval to complete the listed projects:
Kemi Construction Company, Inc. projects:
• 20 Manhole repair and rehabilitation at South Fulton;
• 700 linear feet (LF) of 12-inch VCP pipe repair and Creek bank restoration at Garnett Way; and
• Transition manholes rehabilitation damaged by Hydrogen sulfide gas in south Fulton.
Site Engineering, Inc. projects:
• 7685 Fayetteville Rd, Phase 3 Rehabilitation of 600 LF of damaged 20-inches of VCP / concrete pipe; and
• 3 manholes repairs, 1300 LF of damaged 12 and 8-inches VCP/concrete pipes in Sandy Springs and Roswell.
Sol Construction Company projects:
• Installation and replacement of 3 air release valves (ARV); and
• Repair and replacement of 900 LF of 8 and 12-inches of VCP/reinforced concrete pipes (RCP).
Community Impact: If these repair/rehabilitation projects are not completed, there may be a pipe/manhole failure that could result in a sewer spill, having an adverse impact to the human health and the environment.
Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works recommends approval to increase the spending authority of the contract with (A) Kemi Construction Company, Inc. (B) Sol Construction Company, LLC; and (C) Site Engineering, 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.
