Morales, City Manager DATE: January 15, 2020 SUBJECT:A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, ACCEPTING THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY MANAGER AND WAIVING, BY 5/7TH VOTE, THE FORMAL COMPETITIVE BIDDING REQUIREMENT, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2-367 OF THE CITY CODE, FINDING SUCH WAIVER TO BE IN THE CITY'S BEST INTEREST, AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF BIOLOGICAL ODOR CONTROL SYSTEMS, MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS AND PARTS FROM BIOREM ENVIRONMENTAL INC. FOR THE PURPOSE OF STANDARDIZING THE BIOLOGICAL ODOR CONTROL SYSTEMS LOCATED IN THE WASTEWATER PUMP STATIONS CITYWIDE, IN THE NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT APPROPRIATED ANNUALLY FOR THESE PRODUCTS THROUGH THE CITY'S BUDGET PROCESS. RECOMM ENDAT ION The Administration recommends approving the Resolution. BACKGROUND/HISTORY On July 8, 2015, The Mayor and City Commission awarded a construction contract to David Mancini & Sons, Inc. (DMSI), pursuant to Request for Proposal 2014-253-YG. The scope of the agreement was to design and build a 54" redundant sewer force main. On December 14, 2016, the Mayor and Commission approved a change order to the agreement which added the refurbishing of wastewater Pump Station No. 1. As part of that refurbishing, DMSI installed a biological odor control system from BIOREM Environmental Inc. The Purpose of the odor control system is to treat air emissions and removal of odor found within organic compounds that may contribute to the surrounding environment. BIOREM is an environmental biotechnology company that designs, manufactures various emission control systems. After more than two years the City of Miami Beach Public Works Department has been very pleased with the performance of the new odor control system at wastewater Pump Station No. 1 located at 1053 Jefferson Avenue. It has been both exceptionally effective at removal of odors and very reliable with minimal maintenance required. Public Works desires to use this particular biological odor control system and standardize citywide for repairs of all inoperable odor control systems and other wastewater pump station needs. Page 1267 of 1618 Internal and external stakeholders complain about the awful smell that wastewater pump stations produce. When wastewater begins to turn septic, the bacteria in the sewage will begin to produce higher levels of hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, methane, and other odorous substances. In addition to the unpleasant smell, these chemicals are corrosive, flammable, difficult to treat, and harmful to the environment. At this time the City has the need to replace non-operating odor control systems at wastewater pump station No. 10 located at 28 Venetian Way, wastewater pump station No. 15 located at 5100 Pine Tree Drive and wastewater pump station No. 28 located at 300 28th Street. Furthermore, standardizing BIOREM Environmental, Inc. would allow Public Works to continuously design, built, install and maintain odor control systems as needed on wastewater pump stations citywide. The following are additional factors that make it necessary for the City to standardize BI OREM Environmental Inc.: 1) to assure consistency, efficiency and reliability for all city wastewater pump stations odor concerns; 2) to minimize having to use multiple vendors for maintenance issues; 3) to reduce the cost associated with keeping large stock of parts from different manufactures. In addition, Public Works has collected references from other municipalities where BIOREM Environmental odor control systems have been designed, built, installed and maintained at wastewater pump stations and are successfully operating. Therefore, for the reasons stated herein and pursuant to Section 2-391 of the City Code, the Administration recommends standardizing BIOREM Environmental Inc. biological odor control systems as the City's standards to design, built, install and maintain at wastewater pump stations citywide. MANAGER'S DUE DILIGENCE & RECOMMENDATION Based on the foregoing, I recommend that the Mayor and City Commission hereby accept the written recommendation of the City Manager and waive, by 517ths vote, the formal competitive bidding requirement, in accordance with Section 2-367 of the City Code, finding such waiver to be in the City's best interest, , and authorizing the purchase of biological odor control systems from BIOREM Environmental Inc.for the purpose of standardizing citywide wastewater pump stations in the not to exceed amount appropriated annually for these products through the City's budget process. ANALYSIS KEY INTENDED OUTCOME To design, build, install and maintain biological odor control systems for the City's wastewater pump stations. FINANCIAL INFORMATION The standardization of BIOREM Environmental Inc. for biological odor control systems will be funded by Project Number 28320-Capital Improvement Plan Account:418-0815-069357-29-418-561-00-00-00-28320 Amount:$850,000.
