Castle Rock Water (CRW) staff request Town Council approval of a resolution (Attachment A) approving a Services Agreement (Exhibit 1) with Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc. (BMcD), for Construction Phase Engineering Services on the Plum Creek Water Purification Facility (PCWPF) Expansion project. This project is a key component to Castle Rock’s long term renewable water plan and will expand the PCWPF treatment capacity from 6 million gallons per day (MGD) to 12 MGD. Facility improvements generally include expanding water treatment and solids handling systems, increasing high service pumping, and installing an emergency electrical generator.
BMcD was retained as the design consultant for this project through a competitive process and they have prepared plans and specifications for construction of this facility. As engineering consultant for the project, they have direct knowledge and experience with the specialized components designed for this project. Their continued support during construction is important to maximize value and to ensure a quality-constructed facility built in accordance with facility plans and specifications.
At the request of CRW, Burns & McDonnell submitted a proposal to provide engineering services during construction and startup. These services include but are not limited to, attending weekly progress meetings, daily construction inspection, reviewing equipment submittals, responding to requests for information from the contractor, reviewing project records, providing start-up assistance with training for CRW staff, and preparing record drawings. Staff recommends approval of the services agreement for $3,824,954, plus a Town-managed contingency of $191,248 (5%), for a total project authorization of $4,016,202. Completion of the project is expected in Spring of 2028.
