Title
Hydrant Fueling System Modification (Ordinance S-48981)
Description
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a sale and purchase agreement and to amend Hydrant Fueling Agreement Lease No. 57871-ARL with the Arizona Fueling Facilities Corporation (AFFC) for the modification of the fuel storage and hydrant fuel line system at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
Report
Summary
AFFC is a consortium of airlines that operates under a ground lease for its piping system, which allows the airlines to fuel their aircraft at the gates from hydrants tied to the system. The hydrant fueling system was extended to provide fueling service to eight new gates as part of the Terminal 4, S1 Concourse construction project. To accommodate the accelerated schedule for this project, the Aviation Department included design and construction of the hydrant fuel line into its building contract. Following construction, AFFC will reimburse the City for the new section of the pipeline.
Financial Impact
The total cost for design and construction is approximately $2.8 million. Following receipt of final payment by AFFC, the Aviation Department will transfer pipeline ownership to AFFC by a bill of sale.
