Title
Discussion of issues relating to a proposed PAX Water Mixers and Residual Control System for Pasadena Boulevard Water Storage Tanks.
Body
Summary: We received a sole source quote from PAX Water Technologies for water quality improvements in the Pasadena Boulevard tanks. This system provides a mixer in both the elevated and ground storage tanks and a residual control system in the ground storage tank. It provides a more efficient and uniform method to boost the chlorine residual at the site and have a direct impact on the neighborhoods served by these tanks.
The proposal, totaling $162,600.00, includes a water quality station, a PAX Smart Controller, a chemical feed system for ammonia, a mixer for the ground storage tank, a mixer for the elevated storage tank, SCADA control and feedback, training, and installation.
The Coy site has shown that the PAX system is an effective process for boosting the chlorine residual levels both at the tank and in the distribution system as well as keeping nitrification from taking place within the tank.
Fiscal/Budgetary Impact: this project is funded from the account 40-506-4904.
Recommended action:
Discussion only. Action is proposed to be taken at the Regular Council Meeting.
