SUBJ: Lift Station No. 11: Approve Quote for Electrical Panel and Pumps`
PROPOSED MOTION
"The City Council approves quote in the amount of $25,035.00 to Quality Flow
Systems, Inc. for pumps, electrical equipment and installation of equipment at
Lift Station # 11."
City Council approval requires a simple majority vote of the City Council
present.
BACKGROUND
Annually, the City considers replacement of equipment for lift stations that are
old, unreliable or of in need of upgrades. These replacements are designed to
make the sanitary lift station network more reliable and reduce the likelihood of
emergency calls and the potential for sewer backups. Currently, the City
maintains 31 lift stations in the system\ The repairs for the lift station were
generally identified in the 2008 Sanitary Sewer Comprehensive Plan and have
recently been refined based on recent identified needs in the system.
DISCUSSION
This year's proposed improvement is to replace the electrical panel at Lift Station
#11. Lift Station #I I is located on Utica Lane next to Lake Ann. Staff had
planned to replace the electrical panel at Lift Station #10 as well this year
however after reviewing the needs of this station, more electrical and piping work
is necessary than what was budgeted for. It is proposed to delay the work on Lift
Station #10 until 2012. Lift Station #1 i electrical panel is 12 years old, however,
the electrical components are in need of replacement so the controls can better
communicate with the SCADA system and replacement of level transducers are
needed at this time. Lift station #11's controls are unable to transmit the station's
wet well level to the supervisory control system. This information is critical in
power outages to determine which of the 31 stations needs to be generated and
pumped down to avoid sanitary sewer over flows. This information enables City
utility staff to generate stations only when needed rather that just dedicating one
generator full time.to the station. This mode of operation allows generators to

cover more area with less equipment, and more efficiently during power outages. The upgraded
controls also allow a utility operator access to historical pumping and level trend data at the
station to aid in trouble shooting. The proposed panels are of standard city specification,
constructed of stainless steel for low maintenance, and contain parts interchangeable with the
majority of Chanhassen's lift stations.
Staff has received two quotes for this work as follows:

The sanitary lift station rehabilitation program is designed to minimize sewer backups and emergency calls due to failed lift station equipment. The
City currently maintains 31 lift stations. Many of these lift stations-are high service pumps and need frequent servicing. The program will service
or replace pumps, pipe gallery, and electrical components as needed. The proposed lift stations scheduled for improvements over the next 5 years
are as follows:
2011 - #10 and #11
2012 - # 16 and #21
2013 - #1, #22 and #25
