Report
Summary
The purpose of this project is to provide water and sewer service to the West Anthem area, which will require the Water Services Department to construct significant new infrastructure including a 24-inch to 36-inch water transmission main, 18-inch to 21-inch gravity sewer lines, a lift station, three high density polyethylene force mains, and upgrades to the existing Booster Pump Station (BPS) 8CP-B1.
This contract will cover CA&I services for the upgrades to Booster Pump Station (BPS) 8CP-B1 located on the southwest corner of 45th Avenue and Opportunity Way. Work for the BPS upgrades includes disconnecting the BPS from the current EPCOR suction line and establishing the City of Phoenix suction line connection, improving efficiency by replacing the five existing pumps, installing a new pressure reducing valve (PRV) to meet fire flow demand, and installing a new direct connection from the EPCOR suction line for emergency back-up.
Separate contracts will be executed for CA&I services for the water main and gravity sewer improvements between Sheriffs Pistol Range Road and Opportunity Way; and for the lift station, force mains, and south part of the gravity sewer line from Carefree Highway to just north of Sheriffs Pistol Range Road.
Entellus, Inc.'s services include, but are not limited to: project administration and engineering services during construction, review of shop drawings and test results, issuing interpretations and clarifications, on-site inspections, record drawings, system training, processing contractor progress payments, recording and tracking warranty requests during the 12-month warranty period, and other special services as requested.
