The proper function of the clarifiers depends on reliable clarifier drives. Both of the clarifier drives were originally installed in 1983. Inspection in 2017 showed significant wear to the major mechanical components in both of the clarifier drives. City Wastewater staff consulted with industry experts to explore options, timelines, and expenses for clarifier drive repair and concluded that complete replacement of the drives was the most efficient solution based upon expense and continuity of effective wastewater treatment. Funds were allocated in the 2018 Budget to replace the clarifier drives. City staff used the Municipal Research and Service Center Professional Services Roster process to select the lowest bidder. Ovivo USA, LLC. submitted the lowest bid and has the expertise to provide the required services necessary to replace the clarifier drives. The terms of the contract would be in an amount not to exceed $185,782.65 to perform the work as shown in the attached bid summary and contract and would come from fund 478.
