ITEM SUMMARY:
Well No. 12, located at 627 W Hawthorne Lane, is one of the five City-owned deep wells. The well assembly
consists of a Goulds Pump and a Byron Jackson 300hp motor with a mechanical seal, set at a depth of
approximately 915 feet. The well is rated to pump 1,000 gallons per minute (gpm). The well was constructed in
2012 and has not been serviced since its installation. Starting in 2023 the Well began exhibiting reduced gpm while
pumping. In 2024 the well assembly was tested following a failure of the Well. The testing results indicated wear of
the pump assembly of the well, causing reduced gpm, requiring it to be pulled for a repair. Staff believes the pump
assembly is ready for a complete rebuild based on the current output of 750 gpm.
Layne originally installed the well in 2012. Due to its familiarity with the equipment and its installation, staff solicited
a proposal from the Layne Company to pull, inspect, and rehabilitate the well assembly. Layne’s proposal includes
a complete rebuild and rehabilitation of the existing well equipment, including a television survey of the well casing.
This proposal also contains provisions for a new column pipe, cable, cleaning and re-coating of the existing column
pipe, and overall inspection of all well components. The estimated total for these services is $339,935.00, which
includes a factory exchange motor for $124,736.00 if needed. At this time, staff does not believe the motor will
need to be replaced.
Staff requests that the City Council authorize the Mayor to execute a professional services contract with Layne
Company, for an amount not to exceed $339,935.00, for services necessary to remove, inspect, repair, re-install,
test, and place the well assembly at Well Station No. 12. This is a budgeted item in FY 2025 in 06-34-47-4420.
ACTIONS PROPOSED:
Approve Resolution No. 25-R-0001 authorizing the Mayor to execute a contract with Layne Company for
professional services related to the Well Station No. 12 Rehabilitation Project for an amount not to exceed
$339,935.00.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Infrastructure Committee voted 7-0 for approval.
