TITLE: Approval of On -Call Maintenance and Repair Agreement with Sancon Engineering
for As- Needed Pipelining Services
ABSTRACT:
The Municipal Operations Department uses a contractor to perform as- needed pipe lining services to repair
and prevent minor cracks and corrosion to the City's storm drains and wastewater pipelines. A Request for
Proposals (RFP) was issued to obtain proposals for this service.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the on -call maintenance and repair services agreement with Sancon Engineering for as- needed
pipelining services for a term of three years with a total amount not to exceed $200,000, and authorize the
Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
The current adopted budget includes sufficient funding for this contract.
DISCUSSION:
The City contains 95.4 miles of storm drains and 202.4 miles of sewer mains that on occasion require
repairs or minor rehabilitation short of complete replacement. Cured -In -Place Pipe (CIPP) is a trenchless
rehabilitation method used to repair existing pipelines and extend the life of the pipe up to 40 to 60 years.
CIPP is jointless and seamless and the application provides minimal disruption to area residents.
On February 10th, 2015, the City posted an RFP for As- Needed Pipe Lining Services to provide Cured -In-
Place Pipe (CIPP) lining services throughout the City's storm drain and wastewater pipelines. The overall
weight of the qualifications, experience and ability to deploy services accounted for 50% of the evaluation
criteria, with 50% based on proposal price. The Municipal Operations Department (MOD) received three
proposals, including one from the previous contractor. The proposals were scored by a three - member
review panel.

Proposers were asked to provide their per -foot pricing for five (5) ranges of pipe sizes. There was no
consistency garnered from extrapolating the pipe size range pricing as some proposers presented low
costs in some ranges and high costs in other ranges. This being the case, the decision was made to
assess the proposed pricing for feasibility and reasonableness. As all the proposers submitted pricing that
falls in line with what staff would expect to pay for these services, all proposers were granted 50 points for
the Cost Ratio Score.
Therefore, Sancon Engineering, Inc. was chosen to provide as- needed pipelining services. The agreement
has a term limit of three years with a total amount not to exceed $200,000.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act
( "CEQA ") pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in
Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it
has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
NOTICING:
The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the meeting at
which the City Council considers the item).

9.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to
require Contractor to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim arising from the
sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. Nothing in this
indemnity shall be construed as authorizing any award of attorneys' fees in any action
on or to enforce the terms of this Agreement. This indemnity shall apply to all claims
and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy
limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by

civil service status or other right of employment shall accrue to Contractor or its
employees. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute approval for
Contractor or any of Contractors employees or agents, to be the agents or employees
of City. Contractor shall have the responsibility for and control over the means of
performing the Work, provided that Contractor is in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement. Anything in this Agreement that may appear to give City the right to direct

control over Contractor shall mean only that Contractor shall follow the desires of City
with respect to the results of the Services.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL
o It is the intent of this specification to provide for the reconstruction of pipelines
and conduits by the installation of a resin- impregnated flexible tube, which is
tightly formed to the original conduit. The resin is cured using either hot water
under hydrostatic pressure or steam pressure within the tube. The Cured -In -Place
Pipe (CIPP) will be continuous and tight fitting.
• REFERENCED DOCUMENTS
o This specification references American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)
standards and other related standards which are made a part hereof by reference
and shall be the latest edition thereof:
• AWWA M28 -Cleaning Specification
• ASTM D5813 & D790 - Resin Properties Specification
• ASTM F -1216 & F -1743 - Cured -In -Place Pipe Specification
• ASTM D2990 - Creep And Creep- Rupture Of Plastics
MATERIALS
The Tube:
o The Tube shall consist of one or more layers of flexible, needled felt or absorbent
non -woven felt fabric or an equivalent non -woven material made of polyester,
Sancon Engineering Inc Page A -6
11 -20
fiberglass cloth or equivalent material suitable for resin impregnation, and meet
the standard ASTM requirements. The tube shall be constructed to withstand
installation pressures, have sufficient strength to bridge missing pipe, and stretch
to fit irregular pipe sections.
o The outer tube coating shall consist of a translucent material that allows for
visual inspection and verification of proper resin impregnation. The tube used
shall be fabricated to a size that, when installed, will tightly fit the internal
circumference and the length of the original conduit. The material shall be able to
stretch to fit irregular pipe sections and negotiate bends.
o The Tube shall have a relatively uniform thickness that when compressed at
installation pressures will equal or exceed the calculated minimum design CIPP
wall thickness.
o The Tube shall be manufactured to a size that when installed will tightly fit the
internal circumference and length of the original pipe. Allowance should be made
for circumferential stretching during installation.
o The outside layer of the Tube shall be coated with an impermeable, flexible
membrane that will contain the resin (or equivalent material) and allow the
impregnation (wet out) procedure to be monitored.
o No material shall be included in the Tube that may cause delamination in the
cured CIPP. No dry or unsaturated layers shall be evident.
o The wall color of the interior pipe surface of CIPP after installation shall be a
relatively light reflective color so that a clear detailed examination with closed
circuit television inspection equipment may be made.
o Seams in the Tube shall be stronger than the non - seamed felt material.
o The Tube shall be marked for distance at regular intervals along its entire length,
not to exceed 5 ft. Such markings shall include the Manufacturers name or
identifying symbol.
Resin:
o The resin system shall be a corrosion resistant polyester or vinyl ester system
including all required catalysts, initiators that when cured within the tube create
a composite that satisfies the requirements of ASTM F1216, ASTM D5813 and
ASTM F1743, the physical properties herein, and those which are to be utilized in
the submitted and approved design of the CIPP for this project. The resin shall
produce a CIPP that will comply with the structural and chemical resistance
requirements of this specification.
Sancon Engineering Inc Page A -7 11 -21
TESTING
o The Contractor shall perform a performance test of the materials and general
workmanship of the installation and curing as defined in ASTM F1216 or ASTM
F1743, including chemical resistance, hydraulic capacity and wall thickness.
o The water tightness of the cured in place pipe shall be gauged while curing and
under a positive head.
o These test results must verify that the CIPP physical properties specified in this
section have been achieved.
o The layers of the cured CIPP shall be uniformly bonded. It shall not be possible to
separate any two layers with a probe or point of a knife blade so that the layers
separate cleanly or the probe or knife blade moves freely between the layers. If
the layers separate during field sample testing, new samples will be required to
be obtained from the installed pipe. Any reoccurrence may cause rejection of the
work.
o The cured pipe material (CIPP) shall conform to the structural properties, as listed
below:

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
o A City atlas broken down by route will be provided to Contractor. The City will
locate and designate all manhole access points open and accessible for the work,
and provide rights -of- access to these locations. If a street must be closed to
traffic because of the orientation of the sewer, the City will institute the actions
necessary to provide access for the mutually agreed time period. The City shall
also provide free access to water hydrants for cleaning, installation and other
process related work items requiring water.
o Prior to entering access areas such as manholes, and performing inspection or
cleaning operations, an evaluation of the atmosphere to determine the presence
of toxic or flammable vapors or lack of oxygen must be undertaken in accordance
with local, state, or federal safety regulations.
Sancon Engineering Inc Page A -8
11 -22
o The Contractor shall be responsible for locating all underground utility lines to
insure the safety of his /her work crew and to protect existing utility equipment in
place before commencing any excavation. Contractor shall contact the Project
Manager and Underground Service Alert (www.digalert.org) (1- 800 - 227 -2600)
before commencing any excavation, to locate underground service lines.
Inspection of Pipelines - Before, or at the time of installation, inspection of
pipelines shall be performed under the supervision of the Installation Supervisor
by experienced personnel trained in locating breaks, obstacles and service
connections using close circuit television (CCTV) inspection techniques. The
pipeline interior shall be carefully inspected to determine the location of any
conditions that may prevent proper installation of CIPP. These shall be noted and
corrected. A video recording and suitable written log for each line section shall
be produced for later reference by the City.
o If the installer determines that conditions are such that damage to the existing
piping would result, the Installation Supervisor shall inform the City, shall not
attempt the installation until the site is inspected by a Utility representative, and
shall postpone installation at that site until the Project Administrator authorizes
the Contractor to proceed with the work. The Contractor shall report any
plumbing irregularities including but not limited to: meters installed backwards,
disconnected meters, and taps located before a meter.
o Cleaning of Sewer Lines - The Contractor, when required, shall remove all internal
debris out of the sewer line that will interfere with the installation of CIPP. The
City shall also provide a dumpsite for all debris removed from the sewers during
the cleaning operation. Unless stated otherwise, it is assumed this site will be at
or near the sewage treatment facility to which the debris would have arrived in
absence of the cleaning operation. Any hazardous waste material encountered
during this project will be considered as a changed condition.
o Bypassing Sewage - The Contractor, when required, shall provide for the flow of
sewage around the section or sections of pipe designated for repair. Plugging the
line at an existing upstream manhole and pumping the flow into a downstream
manhole or adjacent system shall make the bypass. The pump(s) and bypass
line(s) shall be of adequate capacity to accommodate the sewage flow. The City
may require a detail of the bypass plan to be submitted.
o Line Obstructions - It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to clear the line
of obstructions such as solids and roots that will prevent the insertion of CIPP. If
pre - installation inspection reveals an obstruction such as a protruding service
connection, dropped joint, or a collapse that will prevent the installation process,
that was not evident on the pre -bid video and it cannot be removed by
conventional sewer cleaning equipment, then the Contractor shall make a point
repair excavation to uncover and remove or repair the obstruction. Such
Sancon Engineering Inc Page A -9
11 -23
excavation shall be approved in writing by the City's representative prior to the
commencement of the work and shall be considered as a separate pay item.
o At its option, the City may authorize Contractor to make any necessary repairs to
service lines or piping, provided Contractor approves such repairs at a rate
agreeable to both Contractor and the City prior to the repairs being done.
o Contractor shall flush water line after CIPP installation to remove all debris out of
the line and ensure the service restoration to the premises. Any location where
flushing cannot be accomplished shall be reported to the Project Administrator.
o The finished pipe shall be continuous over the entire length of an installation and
be free of dry spots, lifts, and delaminations. If these conditions are present, the
CIPP will be evaluated for its ability to meet applicable physical requirements.
Where the CIPP does not meet specifically stated requirements of the client or
engineer the affected portions of CIPP will be removed and replaced with an
equivalent repair mutually agreed upon by the client and contractor.
After the new pipe has been cured in place, the existing active (or inactive)
service connections shall be reinstated. This should generally be done without
excavation, and in the case of non -man entry pipes, from the interior of the
pipeline by means of television camera and a remote control cutting device.
• QUALITY CONTROL
o Overall, the hydraulic cross- section shall be maintained as large as possible. The
CIPP shall have a minimum of the full flow capacity of the original pipe before
rehabilitation. Calculated capacities may be derived using a commonly accepted
roughness coefficient for the existing pipe material taking into consideration its
age and condition.
o Contractor shall be responsible for replacing any CIPP improperly installed.
