| SUBJECT: |
| Council Consideration of a Resolution for the Submittal of a Grant Application for the 2015 Sewer Main Replacement Project to the Office of State Lands and Investments Board in the Amount of $1,295,140.00. |
| BACKGROUND: |
This Grant Application to the Office of State Loan and Investments (SLIB board) for $1,295,140 is intended to fund the City of Gillette's annual program to replace deteriorated or failing sections of the sanitary sewer collection system. Projects are generated through maintenance records and video inspections developed by the Wastewater Division personnel. The replacement projects are prioritized and replacement occurs as funding will allow.
This project has identified replacement of 2400 LF of 8” vitrified clay sanitary sewer main, 400 LF of 12” vitrified clay sanitary sewer main and 50 LF of 15” vitrified clay sanitary sewer main. The 8” sanitary sewer mains that will be replaced are in North Fir Avenue from West 1st Street to Echeta Road, North Fir Avenue from 4th Avenue to 5th Avenue, and Hidden Valley Road from Patik Road to Dade Road. The 12” and 15” sanitary sewer mains that will be replaced are in Hwy 14/16 from Foothill Boulevard to BNSF railroad tracks. The existing deteriorating vitrified clay sanitary sewer mains will be replaced with 8”, 12” and 15” PVC pipe. The location of the new sanitary sewer mains will generally be within the same footprint of the existing sanitary sewer mains. Included with these sanitary sewer main replacements are surface restoration of the pavement and curb and gutter where the new mains will be excavated.
This project design is estimated to start in September 2015 and be complete in January 2016. Construction of the main replacements is estimated to start April 2016 and be completed in July 2016. |
