BACKGROUND: Sewer Pump Station 35 is located in the southeast corner of Old Town near the corner of Electric Avenue and Seal Beach Boulevard. It is a large wet/dry well station which receives all of the sewage flows generated in the Naval Weapons Station, Old Town, Marina Hill and Bridgeport areas. These flows are delivered to an Orange County Sanitation District's (OCSD) pump station located at Seal Beach Boulevard and Westminster Avenue via a 16 -inch force main that lies in Seal Beach Boulevard. The OCSD sewer pump station, then sends the flows on to their treatment plant, for treatment and disposal. The pump station was constructed in 1973 as part of a comprehensive program that eliminated the City's treatment facility. This station is in need of refurbishment. The existing pumps were installed approximately 8 years ago and show signs of premature wear. Their power consumption is less efficient than some of the newer pumps available. On average, this station pumps 1.2 million gallons per day with a peak flow of approximately 2,800 gallons per minute. The 1999 Sewer Master Plan defines Sewer Pump Station 35 as the most important facility in the City's Sewer System, and as such, it must be kept in top condition. On July 11, 2005 the City Council approved plans and specifications and authorized staff to initiate the bidding process. Agenda Item P One (1) bid was received and opened by the City Clerk on Thursday, November 3, 2005 as listed below: 1 Cora Constructors, Inc. $534,800.00 Staff has reviewed the submitted bid documents and found the low bidder to be in compliance with the contract documents.
