RECOMMENDED ACTION
Amend the current contract with ISCO Industries, LLC for HDPE fusible pipe in the amount
of $15,000, for a total annual amount not to exceed $40,000 and renew the contract for an
additional year in an amount not to exceed $40,000.
DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency's Water Resources Division maintains a sanitary sewer system
consisting of approximately 390 miles of pipelines and 8,500 manholes. There are approximately
45,000 sewer laterals in the sewer system. In 2001, a Sewer Service Fee was established that
created a Sewer Lateral Replacement Program. The program allows City maintenance crews to
replace deteriorated private sanitary sewer laterals that are within the public right of way with City
owned main sewer lines. High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) fusible pipe is used to replace
deteriorated sewer laterals. The HDPE pipe prevents future root intrusions, the primary reason
for sewer lateral replacements.
On April 1, 2009, a competitively bid contract for $25,000 was awarded to ISCO Industries, LLC
for the purchase of HDPE fusible pipe for cone-year period, with provision for four one-year
renewals. An increase in sewer lateral replacements by the Water Resources Division caused
the contract to exceed the $25,000 aggregate limit and requires City Council approval.
Amending the contract will allow for the payment of invoices and provide uninterrupted service
during the final two months of the contract. Additionally, ISCO Industries, LLC has performed
satisfactory during this contract period and staff recommends the first renewal of the contract.
