Recommendation: Approve contracting for professional inspection_ services with Corrosion Engineering and Research Company. Analysis: In October of this year, the city plans to begin construction of the Downtown Water Transmission Pipeline. Inspection for the cathodic protection system is beyond the capability of the Department of Public Works. Therefore, inspection for this must be handled by a professional corrosion engineering firm. Requests for proposals were sent to six agencies prov.ding these services. Proposals were submitted by Robert L. Deskins Engineers, PSG Corrossion Engineers, Inc. and Corrosion Engineering and Research Company. The- have been reviewed and evaluated by staff. The most qualif4ed firm is Corrosion Engineering and Research Company. Based on the criteria 4n their proposal and the projected time of construction, the inspection services can be a'')mplished for an anticipated budget of $15,000+. Funds for these inspection services have been included in the project budget for th. Downtown Transmission Pipeline. If this project does not proceed, the city will be under no obligation to retain the se -,,vices of Corrosion Engineering and Research Company. Funding Source: Water Division's Capital Outlay Account 921689. Alternative Action: Deny request.
