The wastewater division <br />has re-jetted these sections of pipe with a root cutter a number of different times. The root cutting <br />operation is a temporary ftx to assure the pipe does not clog. Once the roots have found a way into the <br />pipe they will keep re-growing in the pipeline until the pipe is either slip lined or replaced. The process <br />of slip lining will prevent the roots from re-entering the pipe line. The slip lining will also seal the pipe <br />line to prevent any infiltration of clean ground water into the pipe line. We have chosen to slip line these <br />sections because it can be done at a lower cost than full replacement, and with no surface disruption. The <br />slip lining company will set up at a manhole and insert an uncured resin infused fiberglass membrane into <br />the existing pipe. They then use steam to heat the new pipe up to 180 degrees and it cures the pipe lining <br />in place. <br />Staff obtain four quotes for the project as listed below: <br />^ Insituform - $56,882.40 <br />^ Visu-Sewer - $62,488.50 <br />^ Lametti - $72,350 <br />^ Veit - $81,150 <br />Staff is recommending the project be awarded to Insituform in the amount of $56,882.40. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />The 2012 Wastewater Budget currently has $70,000 in capital outlay for this work to be completed. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />None <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />PRiMERE~ RT <br />N:\I'ublic Bodies\City Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\07-1G-2012\Slip lining request sheet.docs ~~~~, !~~ <br />
