Award of Contract to Blue Pacific Engineering & Construction for the
Martincoit Road Sewer Upsize Project; Bid No. 19-015
This project involves the upsizing of existing sewer mains along Martincoit Road and within an
equestrian trail and sewer easement, between Camino del Valle and Espola Road. Approximately
3,360 lineal feet of existing 8 -inch, 10 -inch, and 12 -inch vitrified clay pipes (VCP) are to be upsized
to 12 -inch and 15 -inch polyvinylchloride (PVC) pipe, and 16 -inch high-density polyethylene
(HDPE) pipe, respectively. In addition, approximately 350 lineal feet of sewer adjacent to Green
Valley Creek is to be upsized using pipe bursting and other trenchless methods. The project will
also involve sewer bypassing, dewatering, tree removal, fencing, and traffic control.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended that the City Council:
(1) Appropriate $275,000.00 from the unappropriated Sewer Fund balance (5200) to
the Martincoit Road Sewer Upsize project account (SWR0004); and
(2) Award the contract for the Martincoit Road Sewer Upsize Project to Blue Pacific
Engineering & Construction, the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, in the
amount of $2,414,880.00.
Discussion:
The contract time for this project is 200 working days with an Engineer's estimate of
$2,300,000.00. Bids were opened on May 1, 2019. The following four bids were received:
Company
Bid Amount
Blue Pacific Engineering & Construction
$2,414,880.00
Burtech Pipeline, Inc.
$2,931,106.00
Wier Construction
$3,059,724.00
Bonadiman Water, Inc.
$3,424,130.00
Due to the depth of the sewer installation and project's proximity to an existing creek, additional
funding is needed for soil/materials testing, and environmental monitoring. Additional funding is
also needed to allow for 10% contingency during construction. Sufficient funds exist in the
unappropriated Sewer Fund balance (F5200-89010) for the additional funding.

Environmental Review:
A Notice of Exemption for this project was filed with the San Diego County Clerk on February 15,
2018. The proposed sewer replacement upsizing project is a Class 2 Categorical Exemption,
pursuant to Section 15302(c) of the 2016 CEQA Guidelines, in that the project consists of
replacement or reconstruction of existing utility systems and/or facilities where the new
utilities/facilities will be located in the same area as the replaced systems/facilities and will have
substantially the same purpose and involve negligible or no expansion of capacity.
Fiscal Impact:
Approval of staff recommendation authorizes the appropriation of $275,000.00 from the
unappropriated Sewer Fund balance (F5200-89010) to the Martincoit Road Sewer Upsize project
account (SWR0004), bringing the total funds available for this project to $2,797,420.17.
