<br />RIVERSIDE PUBLIC UTILITIES <br />Board Memorandum <br />BOARD OF PUBLIC UTILITIESDATE: JANUARY 9, 2023 <br /> <br />SUBJECT:SUGARLOAF BOOSTER STATION TO PRESSURE REDUCING STATION <br />CONVERSION PROJECT, WORK ORDER NO. 2116992IN THE AMOUNT OF <br />$464,000 <br />ISSUE: <br />Consider approvingWork Order No. 2116992in the amount of $464,000for all engineering, <br />construction, paving and construction contingency costs for the Sugarloaf Booster Station to <br />Pressure Reducing Station Conversion Project. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />That the Board of Public Utilities approve Work Order No. 2116992 in the total amount of $464,000 <br />for all engineering, construction, paving, and construction contingency costs for the Sugarloaf <br />Booster Station to Pressure Reducing Station Conversion Project. <br /> <br /> <br />BACKGROUND: <br />The Sugarloaf Booster Station was built in 1968 to supply water to the Blaine 1300 Pressure Zone. <br />Over time, changes in the water system due to residential development, such as the construction <br />of other water facilities, have reduced the need for this booster station. Staff recognized that the <br />booster station could be replaced with a pressure-reducing stationfeeding the Blaine 1300 <br />Pressure Zone from the Heustis 1400 Pressure Zone, eliminating the ongoing costs associated <br />with maintaining the booster station, such as purchasing and installing new equipment, as many <br />of the components of this facility are no longer manufactured. Presently only one of the station's <br />six pumps remains in operation. <br />The proposed project will reduce operation and maintenance costs and increase the flow to the <br />Blaine 1300 Pressure Zone. Once the new pressure-reducing station is complete, the existing <br />booster station will be removed from service and decommissioned. Staff intends to solicit <br />construction bids to demolish the abandoned booster station and seek an award of a construction <br />contract at a future date. <br />DISCUSSION: <br />The work generally entails constructing two pressure-reducing valves, one pressure relief valve, <br />and a flow meter, along with all necessary piping, vaults, fittings, and incidental work installed <br /> <br />
