NO. 06-013) <br />C TY MANAGER <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br />APPROVED <br />^ As Recommended <br />^ As Amended <br />^ Ordinance on 1St Reading <br />^ Ordinance on 2nd Reading <br />^ Implementing Resolution <br />^ Set Public Hearing For_ <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Renew the contracts for water well rehabilitation for a one-year period in <br />an annual aggregate amount not to exceed $250,000 to: <br />Vendor: <br />Orange County Pump Co. <br />So Cal Pump & Well Drilling, <br />Bakersfield Well & Pump Co. <br />Layne Christensen Co. <br />Location: <br />Santa Ana <br />Inc. Riverside <br />Bakersfield <br />Fontana <br />DISCUSSION <br />The City currently operates 19 active water wells and seven water pumping <br />stations to supply the City's drinking water. Staff has determined that <br />through rehabilitation, the efficiency of a majority of the water wells can <br />be increased. The rehabilitation work is needed to restore the wells to <br />maximum water production capacity. Completion of the work will result in <br />the wells producing more water while utilizing less electricity. To avoid <br />schedule conflicts and ensure rapid response, an option of four vendors is <br />recommended. <br />On May 15, 2006, the City Council awarded contracts to Layne Christensen <br />Co., Bakersfield Well & Pump Co., So Cal Pump & Well Drilling, Inc., and <br />Orange County Pump Co., a Santa Ana vendor, for a two-year period, with <br />provision for three one-year renewals. The vendors have performed <br />satisfactorily during the past contract period, and staff recommends the <br />first renewal of the contract. <br />22D-1 <br />
