Set Public Hearing For <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Authorize the City Manger and Clerk of the Council to execute the attached agreement with Orange <br />County Pump Company and Bakersfield Well and Pump Company, subject to nonsubstantive <br />changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney, to provide water well rehabilitation <br />services, in an annual aggregate amount not to exceed $300,000. <br />DISCUSSION <br />In fiscal year 09/10, the Public Works Agency delivered approximately 40,000 acre-feet of water to <br />businesses and residents in Santa Ana. The Agency operates 20 active water wells and seven water <br />pumping stations to supply the City's drinking water. Staff determined that through rehabilitation, the <br />efficiency of a majority of the water wells can be increased to maximum water production capacity. <br />Completion of the work will result in greater production of water and a reduction in the use of <br />electricity. To avoid scheduling conflicts and to ensure rapid response, the option of two vendors is <br />recommended. <br />Bids were solicited from three qualified vendors. A summary of the bid invitations and bids received is <br />as follows: <br />3 Invitations For Bid mailed <br />1 Invitation For Bid mailed to Santa Ana vendor <br />3 Bids Received <br />1 Bid Received from Santa Ana vendor <br />Bids were received on November 15, 2010 and evaluated (Exhibit 1).
