Background:The Riverwatch Parkway corridor in the vicinity of Interstate 20 is one of the more heavily traveled routes in Augusta-Richmond County, carrying approximately 30,000 vehicles per day. This corridor is one of the primary routes from West Augusta and Columbia County into the Augusta Downtown and Medical District and experiences congestion during peak periods of travel which can be attributed to several factors including lack of left- turn capacity, lack of signal interconnectivity and unbalanced lane utilization. In February 2011, LPA Group was awarded the Design Consultant Services contract for the project and released to perform the initial phases of the project that included: traffic analysis, concept development, environmental document and survey. The purpose of this item is to continue the project and move it from concept into detailed design and move the project to construction Analysis:In February 2011, commission approved the initial design phases of the project that included concept development, survey, environmental documentation, and public involvement. The purpose of this item is to move the project from concept to final design and keep it moving forward.

Background:The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Georgia Enviromental Protection Division require that we monitor for Total Trihalomethane (THM) compounds in our water distribution system once per quarter. We collect those samples and send them to the Georgia EPD laboratory for analysis. This results in what can be a delay of approximately four weeks before results are available. Recent changes in the federal reporting rules makes it desirable to be able to analyze more samples and receive the results much more quickly. This would allow us to operate our water distribution to in a manner that helps to insure continued compliance with all requirements. Analysis:We believe that having the capability to perform THM analyze for THM compounds in our own laboratory would provide the opportunity to to optimize our system operation as it relates to this parameter. We have identified the Parker-Hannifin THM Analyzer as an instrument that will allow us that capability. In discussions with Parker-Hannifin we were told that theirs is the only system that provides that capability. We have investigated the claim by the Parker-Hannifin Corporation that the Parker THM Analyzer is a unique product with no other manufacturer offering the same technology. We have performed an internet search for laboratory bench top THM analyzers and we have also attended the largest water conference in North America which included an exhibition of several hundred vendors that provide products and services for the water industry. In each search we not only found that the Parker THM Analyzer is indeed unique but we could not locate another vendor that even offers a laboratory bench top THM analyzer. There are several vendors that offer an on-line THM analyzer but those are limited to performing analyses at only one location. The bench top model offers the advantage of being able to analyze samples collected at multiple locations and transported back to the laboratory. Based on this investigation we have concluded that the Parker-Hannifin Corporation is the sole source Cover Memo Item # 7 for a product that meets our requirements. Financial Impact:$36.298.25 from budgeted funds. Alternatives:Continue current monitoring approach with limited ability to optimize our water distribution system operations. (not recommended) Recommendation:Approve the sole source procurement of the Parker-Hannifin THM Analyzer at a cost of $36,298.25.

Background:Augusta's new and upgraded surface water treatment plants utilize a technology which allows onsite generation of sodium hypochlorite which is used as a replacement for chlorine gas as a disinfectant in drinking water. The system used at our facilities is manufactured by Severn Trent Services. These units require periodic replacement of generation cells due to normal deterioration of the electrodes. The purpose of this procurement is to purchase a replacement cell for one of the units at the N. Max Hicks Water Treatment Plant. Analysis:This is a replacement part for an existing piece of equipment which is proprietary in its design and construction. The only source for this procurement is the equipment manufacturer. Financial Impact:$39,350.00 from budgeted funds. Alternatives:No feasible alternatives are available.
