ITEM 5 : CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A REQUEST
TO AWARD A CONTRACT FOR WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
DESIGN ENGINEERING SERVICES,
Mr Carr presented the item. He said that the existing City of Owasso wastewater treatment facility
was constructed in 1986. Phase I improvements to meet changes in water quality criteria were
completed in 1998. The plant improvements were designed to treat an average daily flow of 2.15
million gallons per day. Current average daily flow is approaching the original design capacity of
the treatment plan and new effluent limitations require increasing the treatment capabilities. An
amendment to the facilities plan, completed in 1994, allows the City to obtain funding the State
Revolving Fund loan program for the needed modifications. Phase 11 improvements to the plant will
provide additional capacity, and will need to be in place by the year 2001. The staff requested
qualification statements from engineering firms capable of providing engineering design services
for the plant improvements. Responses were reviewed by a staff committee and the selection made
by a committee consisting of Councilor Smith, Mr Hancock, and Mr Carr. As a result of the final
evaluation, the committee determined that fee negotiation be conducted with HUB+Garver
Engineers. Two possible work tracks were discussed, and HUB+Garver has provided a fee proposal
that incorporates both work tracks. Funding for the design will need to be paid from OPWA
reserves. Once the design is completed, the entire project can be funded through a State Revolving
Fund loan from the Oklahoma Water Resources Board. Mr Wilken moved, seconded by Mr Smith,
to approve a contract with HUB+Garver, Tulsa, OIL in the lump sum amount not to exceede
$618,990 for design, bidding, construction phase engineering, resident project inspection and
operation and maintenance manual preparation for Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements Phase
11, and authorization for the Chair to execute the document.
