SUBJECT: Authorize the Award of a Construction Contract to Insituform Technologies, LLC to Construct the Sewer Line Rehabilitation Phase 5 Project
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
In November 2011, the City of Killeen voluntarily entered a ten-year Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) Initiative Agreement with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).

The action plan includes five (5) phases of Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Survey (SSES) in which 595 miles of sewer main and 8,142 manholes are evaluated. In Phases 1-4 of the SSO Initiative Action Plan, 1,410 manholes and 44,742-feet of sewer main were rehabilitated. Phase 5 of the SSO Initiative Action Plan, which will complete the City’s SSOI Agreement with the TCEQ, consists of the rehabilitation of 28 manholes and 607-feet of sewer main.
City staff petitioned Insituform Technologies and Vortex Lining Systems for a BuyBoard proposal to rehabilitate twenty-eight (28) manholes on a large sewer line that extends between Featherline Road and East Trimmier Road. Both companies are approved by the State of Texas BuyBoard for the geopolymer manhole coating technique required for the extreme corrosion in these manholes.
