Item Summary:
Based on the history of asbestos -cement (a/c) waterline main breaks that have occurred within the City, staff
identified these areas and has developed a program to replace these water mains. In November 2007 and
November 2009, the City awarded construction contracts to replace existing a/c waterlines in these problem areas
by means of pre -chlorinated pipe bursting. This technique allows less impact to our customers.
This contract is to continue the City's a/c pipe replacement program that began in November 2007 and is the second
phase of pipe replacement in the Greenslopes subdivision. This second phase includes the replacement of 8,475
feet of eight inch a/c waterlines in the Greenslopes subdivision. This program will continue annually to replace a/c
pipe as necessary.
On March 1, 2011, two bids were received and publicly opened and read aloud. The bid amounts ranged from
$819,688.90 to $854,940.00. The low bidder was SKE Construction, LLC of Alvin, Texas. The design engineer and the
City's staff recommend awarding the project to SKE Construction, LLC.

27.0 - Ensure there is an adequate and safe water supply.
Cost: $819,688.90
