The California Regional Water Quality Control Board requires the <br />City to regularly inspect and assess the condition of sewer pipelines and <br />manholes. Currently, the City has contracted with an outside organization <br />to videotape the entire sewer system, utilizing closed circuit television <br />(CCTV) technology. However, it is more cost effective for City employees <br />to perform emergency investigations for spot repairs. The recommended <br />purchase of a CCTV system will facilitate this work. <br /> <br />The notice inviting bids was advertised on February 14, 2008 and bids were <br />solicited.
