Workshop Memorandum 18-263
Date: December 11, 2018
Prepared By: John Wrobel, Public Works Manager
Subject: Overview of the 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
On November 6, 2018, the Board of Directors awarded a contract to Weka for a sum not to exceed
$32,684.
