DISCUSSION The Public Works Sewer Maintenance Division staff performs ongoing assessment of the City'ssewer infrastructure. Illumination continues to be a limiting factor when inspecting sewer mains as confined space of pipes leave little room for lighting equipment. The QuickView Haloptic zoom camera system manufactured by Envirosight offers the latest technology in underground utility assessment. The new design doubles inspection range, eliminates the need for continual camera realignment and delivers up to 20 times more light than staff's current equipment. The camera and lighting system will help to evaluatepipelines and manholes from street level thereby eliminating the need for confined-space entry. The system may also aide to evaluate storm pipe conditions with minimal exposure to traffic. Haaker Equipment Co. is the sole authorized dealer for Envirosight equipment in Southern California. The Pelican remote area lighting system is the recommended lighting equipment for the QuickView Haloptic zoom camera. Haaker Equipment Co. offers a discounted price on the lighting equipment with the purchase of the QuickView zoom camera. Staff recommends Council approval of the recommended action. 22A-1 Contract Award for Sewer Camera and Lighting System September 3, 2013 Page 2 FISCAL IMPACT Funds are available in the Public Works Sanitary Sewer Service account (no. 05617640-66400).
