Workshop Memorandum 18-243



                Date:              October 30, 2018

                Prepared By:       John Wrobel, Public Works Manager

                Subject:           Overview of Proposed Sewer Mainline Repairs in Wildwood Creek, Yucaipa


               The District staff performs routine inspections, maintenance, and repairs of the sewer collection
               system within Yucaipa and Calimesa.  One commonly used inspection procedure is to video the
               interior of the sewer mains to ensure the mainline integrity and to identify any root intrusions.




























               During one of the recent video inspections, District staff found a section of 10-inch HDPE sewer
               mainline that had been compromised.  This section of pipe is located just south of Wildwood
               Canyon Road, on the north side of Yucaipa Creek, in the channel.  This section of pipe was last
               repaired in early 2011.  During the 2010 winter storms, approximately 560 feet of this sewer main
               collapsed and an emergency repair was made using HDPE pipe.  After the repairs were made in
               2011, this section of pipe was video inspected, and no defects were found.

               District staff solicited 3 proposals from local contractors capable of making proper repairs to HDPE
               pipe.
                                                Contractor                 Amount
                                      Weka, Inc.                           $32,684
                                      ProCraft Construction                $64,000

                                      Merlin Johnson Construction          $73,350

               District staff recommends that this job be awarded to Weka, Inc.
