COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT Q I I ~ 9 1 1 f /[$ [ DATE:
Y) LC /I /I
TO: City Council
FROM: Paul LaFond, Director of Water & Wastewater
SUBJECT: Engineering Services for North Ferry Street Pump Station Replacement
TO BE PLACED ON COUNCIL AGENDA OF: April 28,2014
Background Information:
The existing North Ferry Street Pump Station (NFPS) was originally constructed in 1913 and is
located along the banks of the Mohawk River at the end of North Ferry Street in the City of
Schenectady's Stockade District. The NFPS was inundated from severe flooding resulting fiom
Hurricane Irene during the Fall of 2011, at which time the Mohawk River's water level rose
above the 100 yr flood elevation and raw sewage and river water breached the dividing wall
between the wetwell and drywell areas flooding the interior of the pump station. The flooding of
the pump station interior caused significant damage to the facility's electrical and control systems
as well as emergency generator thereby rendering the facility inoperable until the flood waters
subsided, at which time the City accessed the station and made repairs to the pump station to
bring it back on line. Due to the age and condition of the existing pump station, the City has
decided to pursue the construction of a new pump station to replace the existing pump station.
Evaluation/Analysis:
The City sent out a Request for Proposals in October of 2013 for the above project. Proposals
were received in sealed envelopes by the Water Department on November 18, 20 13. The City
then established a committee to review all proposals. Based on a unanimous decision of the
review committee, it is the recommendation of the review committee that the City Council enter
into a professional service agreement with MJ Engineering and Land Surveying, P.C. as the
lowest responsible proposal in the amount of $175,800.00.
Recommendation:
Authorize the Mayor to enter into an agreement with MJ Engineering And Land Surveying, P.C.
for the Engineering Report, Design, Construction Administration & Construction Inspection
Services for the North Ferry Street Pump Station Replacement in the amount of $175,800.00.
