Hydropneumatic Pump Station Zone Improvement Project (CI 5672)

The City is seeking professional engineering services from a qualified consulting firm to evaluate four existing potable water hydropneumatic pump stations. The scope of work includes collaborating with City operations and engineering staff, reviewing existing drawings and site conditions, and performing engineering calculations to determine the hydraulic capacity of the pumps. The assessment will also evaluate whether the current piping and equipment configurations adequately meet the required flow rates for the zone served, and will involve developing a preliminary design report with recommendations on piping modifications, standby engine generator integration, flow requirements, wildfire mitigation measures, and compliance with regional agency regulations. The consultant will participate in monthly coordination meetings with the City’s Project Manager, facilitate a workshop to review draft recommendations, and incorporate feedback into a final comprehensive analysis of pump station flow capacity, configuration, and operational strategies. The project, titled the Hydropneumatic Pump Station Zone Improvement Project (CI 5672), is posted as a solicitation with a response deadline of June 19, 2025. It is managed by the California Public Works - Engineering Division and falls within the NAICS code 237110, indicating heavy and civil engineering construction. The contract size is estimated between $500,000 and $1,500,000. The primary point of contact is Paul Weinstein, reachable via email at [email hidden] or by phone at [phone hidden].
