ITEM SUMMARY:
The Lead Service Line Replacement and Public Notification Act that became effective on January 1, 2022, requires
the City of West Chicago to develop, implement, and maintain a comprehensive Water Service Line (WSL)
Inventory and a Lead Service Line Replacement (LSLR) Plan. On April 13, 2023, the City completed its initial WSL
inventory based on the best available information and submitted to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(IEPA). Based on the available information, the City has approximately 551 full or partial lead water service lines.
The Initial LSLR Plan is due April 15, 2024, with annual updates required in 2025 and 2026. The Final LSLR Plan
is due before April 15, 2027.
Engineering Enterprises, Inc. (EEl) has successfully worked with multiple communities within the Chicagoland area
to prepare a LSLR Plan as well as a Project Plan. EEl’s proposed fees of $68,184.00 is reasonable for the required
effort based on EEl’s experience performing similar services for other Chicagoland communities. The information
required to be included in LSLRP requires similar efforts regardless of the number of services present in a community.
This is an unbudgeted item in FY 2023, but there are unused funds from the Waste Lime Sludge Removal Project
(about $244,400.00). Staff recommends awarding the professional services contract to EE.
ACTIONS PROPOSED:
Approve Resolution No. 22-R-0068 authorizing the Mayor to execute a contract with Engineering Enterprises, Inc.
of Sugar Grove, IL for professional engineering services related to the preparation of Lead Service Line
Replacement Plant in an amount not to exceed $68,184.00.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Infrastructure Committee voted 7-0 for approval.
