Background
As a critical component of the City's overall stormwater management program, drainage
facilities must be regularly inspected and cleaned. Catch basins trap sediment and
other solids that might otherwise clog a storm sewer and cause flooding. The regular
removal of trapped sediment and debris from these facilities reduces the incidence of
foul odors, minimizes contamination in receiving waters, and satisfies some of the
requirements of the City's NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System)
permit.
A call for bids for the revised project was advertised, and on January 9, 2015, sealed
bids were opened and read aloud. The following is a summary of the bids received:
