ON-CALL STORM PIPE CLEANING

The City is requesting proposals from qualified companies to conduct on-call stormwater pipe and proprietary water quality device (such as stormceptor and crystal stream) pumping maintenance service that will be used on an as needed basis. No baseline amount of work is guaranteed with this contract. This will include pumping, removal, and disposal of all materials associated with cleaning out partially and fully clogged storm structures and pipes (the City will provide traffic control).
In accordance with the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) regulations the City is required to maintain stormwater pipes and structures within our jurisdictional authority. The City is making strides to become more proactive in its inspection and maintenance program. As such, we have found that the number of storm pipes we are unclogging each year has significantly increased to the point that we need to maintain an on-call company for this service. Additionally, the city currently has and continues to install new proprietary water quality devices where necessary on public improvement projects. These devices require at least annual inspections and pumping maintenance.
