RECOMMENDATION(S):

(1) ADOPT Resolution No. 2016/501 accepting as complete the construction contract work performed by Valentine Corporation for the North Richmond Pump Station Diversion Project, Corner of Gertrude Avenue and Richmond Parkway, Richmond.


(2) DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to file with the County Recorder a certified copy of Resolution No. 2016/501 and the attached Notice of Completion no later than fifteen (15) days after adoption.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct fiscal impact resulting from the adoption of the Resolution of Acceptance and Notice of Completion, but the adoption and recording will limit the period for filing stop payment notices and bond claims on this contract.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of the project is to participate in a pilot project to divert storm water to a sanitary district treatment plant to determine the feasibility of treating storm water at a wastewater treatment plant before it is discharged into a receiving water body. The project will divert storm water from the existing North Richmond Pump Station to a West County Wastewater District sewer main on Gertrude Avenue. The diversion will be conducted on a temporary basis. Inside the existing pump station, two new pumps were installed into the wet well, in addition to new circuit breakers, control panels, and new level and float sensors. Installation of the new pumps will also help the pump station with temporary dry weather flows.

On March 10, 2015, the County entered into a construction contract with Valentine Corporation for the subject project. The above contract has been completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. It is recommended that the work covered by the contract be accepted by adopting a Resolution of Acceptance and Notice of Completion (Resolution No. 2016/501).

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Accepting a contract as complete is standard procedure and allows for proper closeout of the contract. If the above contract is not accepted as complete, the period for filing stop payment notices and bond claims may be extended.
