Agenda Item No. 1
and having the proper equipment could prevent property damage. Assistant City Engineer
Stein related that, if one station in a two -station system fails, the second station cannot replace
the first, two pump stations are better than four pump stations because of maintenance costs,
and tide gates and drains will be removed once a pump station is online. Public Works Director
Webb clarified that multiple pumps are located in a pump station, an alternate pump can replace
a failed pump in a station, a generator running on an alternative fuel source can power pumps
during an electrical outage, cost and siting/access are the major factors in considering pump
station options, and a one pump station may be better at this time.
In response to Council Member O'Neill's questions, Assistant City Engineer Stein shared the
advantages of micro -tunneling versus open cutting streets to install pipes, stated that Collins
Bridge is in good condition, and the project will not affect it. Public Works Director Webb added
that additional problems could make open cutting less expensive, $1.6 million covers the
designing of the pump stations and underground storm drains, and designing street changes
will be separate. Council Member O'Neill preferred a concept that does not puncture seawalls.
In response to Council Member Dixon's questions, Assistant City Engineer Stein reported Item
7 covers the design of the pump station and storm drain on the west end of Balboa Island, staff
spoke with the Federal Emergency Management Association (FEX4) staff regarding potential
grant funding but they did not encourage City staff to apply, and the project is designed for a
200 -year rain event. Public Works Director Webb indicated staff is searching for grant funding,
this project would qualify for grant funding because it protects housing, and work would be
completed in segments so traffic circulation is maintained/
In response to Mayor Avery's question, A Stant City Engineer Stein advised that low flows
would be captured and diverted to the Initary sewer system.
Mayor Pro Tem Muldoon requeste%vide a brief report regarding estimated costs.
