AGENDA ITEM: Well No. 2 -Addition of Pump and Mot
~. SUBMITTED BY: Donna Kaluzniak, Utility Director
DATE: February 12, 2004
AGENDA ITEM #8B
MARCH 8, 2004
BACKGROUND: As part of the Consumptive Use Permit, the St. Johns River Water
Management District required the City to backplug Well No. Z, located at 1100 Sandpiper Lane.
""' A contract was awarded to the low bidder, W. Earl Floyd, and the backplugging was properly
completed. Unfortunately, the backplugging of the well has resulted in a significant reduction in
the well's capacity from 800 gallons per minute to 200 gallons per minute. In order to provide
sufficient supply, a pump and motor will need to be added to the well. This work will also
require electrical supply and connection, and additional pipework and valuing.
The addition of the pump and motor needs to be expedited in order to have the well ready for the
warm-weather demands on Water Plant # 1. CH2M Hill prepared a basic design including
~„ pump/motor sizing and calculations for the project. Staff requested quotes from the existing
well contractor, W. Earl Floyd for the pump and motor installation, piping and concrete pad, and
received a quote of $39,000 for this work. In addition, quotes for electrical work were requested
~,. from the City's annual electrical contractor, Brooks Limbaugh Electrical, and a cost proposal in
the amount of $20,160 was received.
To demonstrate that the prices for the additional work are competitive without the delay and
additional engineering costs that would be required for a bid, a comparison is provided below
using a bid for the same size well (Well #4) at Water Plant #2. The comparison price is the low
bid from a project completed in 1948, that included drilling of the well. All costs for the well
drilling in the 1998 project were eliminated from the comparison, so only like items are
compared:
Item Cost Low Bid 1998
Well #4
Addition of the well pump, motor, header line and $59,160 $59,259
piping with valves, fittings, supports, concrete
ad, and electrical work.
BUDGET: Funds are available in the Water Fund under Account Nos. 400-5502-533-6300
and 400-5504-533-6300, since the security fencing came in under budget and staff has
determined that some of the work on Renault project can be done in-house.

MARCH 8, 2004
RECOMMENDATION: Use the City's annual electrical contractor, Brooks Limbaugh, and
extend the contract with the existing well contractor, W. Earl Floyd, to complete the installation
of a pump and motor on Well No. 2, and waive the formal bidding process.
