SUGGESTED CRITERIA FOR ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTION
Proposed by Council Member Casagranda
• Vendor should not be previously affiliated with staff, council or administration.
• Vendor must start work immediately and continue through completion of sludge removal
and repair project.
• Council may have specific vendors to request, including:
- Greg Jones of GV Jones &Assoc. 907-346-4123, highly recommended by several folks I
spoke to, put in Windsong's wastewater treatment plant; he's in Anchorage
- Northern Utilities Services, Dave Kranich, 907-632-0012, dave @nusalaska.com
- Mike Pollen, Pollen Environmental, 907-452-6855, mrp @ntlalaska.com
- Mike Tauriainen or Mike Gahr at Tauriainen Engineering & Consulting in Soldotna 907-
262-4624
- And finally, Merrell Brothers, the same people as was low bidder on the RFP, so we
already have their contact info. There have been several people that spoke highly of
Merrell Brothers and the work they did at North Pole recently.
The decision was made to sole source the Sludge Removal and Disposal project to M.L. Foste &
Associates as they are familiar with our facility and the issues that we have faced with the od.rs and
permit compliance. The contract was for an amended scope of work related to ongoing issues, including
a Notice of Violation, at the Lowell Point Wastewater Treatment Facility(LPWWTF). ADEC's otice of
Violation and odor issues at the LPWWTF,and the identified need to remove sludge and refu bish items
in the pond (air system,valves&diffusers) necessitated a quick decision to be made.
Since M.L. Foster and Associates have produced documents and studied our system extensiv:ly, I felt it
was in the Public interest to employ their services. Mr. Leman of M.L. Foster&Associates ha produced
the following documents over the course of the last 5 years for the City of Seward:
1. Lowell Point Wastewater Treatment Facility Plan 2012
2. Lowell Point Quality Assurance Plan 2011
3. Wastewater System Evaluation 2010
4. Wastewater Facilities Operation & Maintenance Plan
5. Assisted with re-permitting APDES at the Lowell Point Facility
6. Currently assisting with the re-permitting at the SMIC Facility
Because of his involvement with the LPWWTF over the course of the past 5+years, I felt that e would
be the best qualified and most expedient at ensuring the needs of the City of Seward were mot. A
purchase order for$45,000 was requested to retain their services.
