Summary & Background (First sentence includes Agency recommendation. Provide an executive summary of the action that gives an overview of the relevant details for the item.)

 

Scope of Work: The contract is for sewer system chemical root services for the Department of Public Works for the County’s North and South Fulton sanitary sewer service areas. Approximately 798.8 miles of sewer pipeline have been treated for root intrusion from 2014 thru 2020.

 

Community Impact: Root intrusion into the sanitary sewer system can result in sewer system spills that can create odorous conditions. If significant, the result could be a fish kill, and possible adverse impacts to human health and the environment if a body of water is impacted.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department requests approval to renew the existing contract with Dukes Root Controls Inc.

 

Project Implications: If root intrusion is not managed and corrected by Public Works, the frequency of sewer system overflows would likely increase and result in fines and penalties.

 

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

Department Issues/Concerns: No issues/concerns are known to Public Works staff.
