EXPLANATION: The Utility owns and operates ground water supply wells that supply untreated water to the Lime and Membrane Plants on Wellington Trace. The Utility is currently under construction on Phase II of a comprehensive water supply rehabilitation program to improve well performance, ensure available raw water supply to meet demands and extend the useful life of the wells.
Well R3 is currently planned to be rehabilitated under Phase II. This well is located in the playground area of the Boys and Girls Club adjacent to the Water Plant on Wellington Trace. Rehabilitation of Well R3 will require the playground be closed for up to three (3) months. This Well was constructed over 30 years ago and due to age, and current and future impacts to the playground at the Boys and Girls Club, staff is recommending relocation of the Well onto the adjacent Water Plant Site.
The additional cost to relocate and drill a new well is $94,189.05. This change order will authorize the relocation of Well R3, including drilling a new well and relocating all mechanical equipment, from the Boys & Girls Club site to the Water Treatment Plant site.
