SUBJECT:
title
Amendment No. 1 to the Professional Services Agreement for the 2025 Sanitary Sewer Investigations and Rehabilitation Program to RJN Group Inc. in the Amount of $13,205.70

BACKGROUND:
On March 4, 2025, the City Council approved a Contract with RJN Group Inc. for the 2025 Sanitary Sewer Investigations and Rehabilitation Program for a not to exceed amount of $539,650.00. Public Utilities Operations staff have recently discovered a large amount of groundwater entering the sanitary sewer system near the Benton and Maple Lift Station. The excess water is causing the pumps to run continuously at the lift station. It is recommended that the City complete a sanitary sewer evaluation survey to identity the sources of inflow and infiltration and complete rehabilitation recommendations.
The Public Service Committee will review this matter.
CONCLUSION:
RJN Group Inc. has provided a proposal to complete the following tasks:
• Smoke Testing, Manhole Inspection, Televising Review, Mapping Updates, and Dyed Water Flooding on the sewer system tributary to the Benton and Maple Lift Station.
Amendment No. 1, for an amount not to exceed $13,205.70, represents the cost of completing this additional work. Funds will be charged to the Water & Sewer Improvement Fund / Professional Services (Org 50180020, Object 557200, $13,205.70, Project 25027).
