- Section 1
Understanding Of The Project
In order to better understand the scope of this project, we visited with both Mr. Ken
Griffin, City Engineer and Mr. Howard Pafford, Water Utilities Superintendent. We
discussed key elements of the project and the water system operation with both. We
have visited the pump station and ground storage site and discussed it's operation with
the pump station personnel as well.
This project is a
,_ high visibility The project consists of construction a ground storage tank on the existing available
project surrounded
by homes, an area at the Village Parkway Pump Station and Ground Storage Tank site, just
elementary school northeast of the intersection of Sandy Lake Road and MacArthur Boulevard. The tank
' and major
thoroughfares. iS tO have a capacity of four to six million gallons, and is to be constructed of
Our team has a
-- complete prestressed concrete to match the existing ground storage tank on site. It is
understanding of
Coppell's understood that the City of Coppell will confirm the proposed tank size through a
commitment to
" quality, esthetically separate water system analysis. Site improvements such as yard piping, valves, and
pleasing projects access roads will be included with the tank.
which are sensitive
' to the surrounding
environment.
Also included in the project are the additions of Pump No. 4 to the pump station,
variable speed controls for the motors on Pump Nos. 3 and 4, secondary low voltage
electrical connectors, emergency generator and necessary telemetry modifications.
In addition to the above described project requirements as outlined in the City's
request for statements of qualifications, we believe it is in the best interest of the City
to investigate the need for adding disinfection facilities to the Village Parkway Pump
Station. We understand that the City currently receives all of its treated water from
~_ Dallas Water Utilities, and that disinfection and required chlorine residuals are
generally provided by DWU. However, with the construction of the additional ground
- storage tank at the pump station site, which will potentially increase the detention time
in the storage tanks, and the continued growth of the City's water distribution system
SJ&F 1 - 1
_ increasing the travel time in the pipes, the City may want to consider a backup or
redundant disinfection facility at the pump station. The facility, of course, would need
_ to be compatible with the methods of disinfection currently utilized by the Dallas
Water Utilities (i.e., a chlorine system).
The addition of a chlorine facility at the pump station would add a measure of
protection against contamination of the City's water supply and thus help to insure the
health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Coppell. Currently, Coppell is dependent
on DWU to disinfect its water supply. In the event of a distribution main break or
other contamination of Coppell's water supply, there exist no practical, nor efficient
method for the City to respond to the problem. With the addition of a chlorine system
at the Village Parkway Pump Station, disinfection of the City's water supply, if
required, could be handled quickly, efficiently and without disruption of water service
to the community.
_ Disinfection facilities are an expensive addition to the City's water system; especially
in light of the 1990 revisions to the Uniform Fire Code regulating storage, spill
-- containment and treatment of hazardous gases. However, considering the population
served by the City's water system and the inherent importance of delivering safe
- drinking water, we believe the City should give serious consideration to a redundant
disinfection facility, if not with the scope of this project, then sometime in the near
" future.

Ability To Complete Project
-- Shimek, Jacobs & Finklea has been serving municipalities in the Dallas area for almost 25 years. Most
of our work during this time has come from repeat business. This is because we have been able to
-- successfully complete projects on time and within budget. The firm's staff is well experienced in the
work it undertakes; is familiar with local and national equipment representatives, and local, regional
-- and stage agency representatives; and is equipped with state of the art computer aided drafting and
design facilities to efficiently produce construction documents. If selected we expect to meet any
- reasonable schedule set forth by the City without the need of adding additional staff.
-- We invite you to contact the following references who can document our ability to complete projects in
a timely manner. We have worked with each of these individuals in excess of 10 years on projects
- similar to the Village Parkway Tank and Pump Station Improvements.

includes the design and specifications of negative pressure contaminant and air
_ treatment for facilities for the proposed chlorimine systems.
Charles R. McCreary & Associates has worked on dozens of water and sewage
pumping facilities. The firm is very experienced in the design of emergency
generation equipment. Two recent projects are the Celestial Road Pump Station in
Addison and the Village Parkway Pump Station in Coppell. Their previous
involvement at the Village Parkway Pump Station will prove invaluable to the City of
Coppell in design of improvements to the station. A complete list of McCreary's
pump station experience is included for your reference.
