AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR DRILLING OF MAIN STREET
WELL NO. 4 (CITY PROJECT NO. 600103)
SUMMARY
This action is a request for authorization to advertise for bids for drilling of Main Street Well No. 4.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council
1. Adopt Resolution No. 98-50 approving the environmental determination for the project.
.
Adopt Resolution No. 98-35 approving the plans and specifications and authorizing
advertisement for bids for the subject project.
FISCAL IMPACT
The engineer's estimate for this project is $345,400. There is currently $1,297,700 remaining in the
1997/98 budget allocated for completion of this project. This well will be constructed under the Orange
County Water District (OCWD) conjunctive use well construction program as authorized in the
agreement approved by the City Council on October 21, 1996. The City will be reimbursed for expenses
as they occur. Once the well is operating, the City will repay OCWD for capital costs over the next 20
years based on an interest rate of 3.5%. The water supply from this well will reduce the City's annual
water production expenses by $200,000 per year.
BACKGROUND
The drilling of the replacement water well was budgeted as a Water Capital Improvement Program
project within the current Fiscal Year. City Project No. 600103 consists of constructing a new water
well at the Main Street Plant which will replace Main Street Well No. 2.
DISCUSSION
On August 19, 1996 the Tustin City Council authorized Richard C. Slade & Associates (Slade) to
prepare plans and specifications for the subject well replacement. Slade has completed the plans and
specifications which have been reviewed and approved by City staff.
During the preliminary design phases of the project, Slade recommended that the new well not be drilled
in the site originally selected due to its close proximity to existing active and previously abandoned
wells. The City Council subsequently authorized the purchase of the adjacent property at 275 E. Main
Street on which the new well will be drilled.
The well will be constructed in two phases. The first phase, to be completed under this contract, will ~be
the drilling and construction of the subsurface facilities. Once the drilling and testing are complete, and
the water quality and flow of the well are known, final design of the wellhead facilities will be
completed and a second contract will be issued for construction of those facilities.
The following is the anticipated schedule for the well drilling:
