REQUEST: <br /> Resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into a multi-year lease agreement for one (1) roll-off trailer and one <br /> (1) dewatering bin for a period of five (5) years for the Department of Environmental Management (DEM) <br /> Wastewater Division, <br /> 1 <br /> 3I <br /> i <br /> Jf3 <br /> 3 <br /> I <br /> B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): <br /> I <br /> The DEM Wastewater Division (WWD) is requesting to lease finance a roll-off trailer and a dewatering bin <br /> needed to dewater liquid/solids slurries generated from maintenance activities related to cleaning sewer <br /> lines, pump station wet wells, scum collection sumps, solids from wastewater treatment processes, and spill <br /> related discharges. The roll-off trailer is needed to haul the dewatering bin to dispose of the solids. <br /> WWD currently has no means to empty the vactor trucks storage tanks except by dumping all this <br /> liquid/solids slurries directly into the septage receiving pits at Hilo and Kealakehe Wastewater Treatment <br /> Plants (WWTP). This current practice causes the septage receiving pit pumps and further downstream, the <br /> grit collection pumps to clog, overheat, and eventually burn out the motors. WWD is constantly purchasing <br /> new pumps to replace the burned out motors and pumps. <br /> The purchase price for the roll-off trailer is estimated at $100,000. The estimated lease payment is $21,600 <br /> per year($1,800 per month). The purchase price for the dewatering bin is estimated at$75,000. The <br /> estimated lease payment is $15,600 per year($1,300 per month). This trailer and dewatering bin will be <br /> lease financed such that the County will own the equipment at the end of the five year lease. i <br /> Funding for this equipment is not included in the FY21-22 budget as delivery is not expected until next fiscal I <br /> year due to the long lead time. <br /> l <br /> We respectfully request that this resolution be waived from the Council's Finance Committee and be placed <br /> on the next Council agenda in order to expedite the procurement of this equipment. <br /> i <br /> 3 <br /> 3 <br /> SIGNED: d <br /> DATE: <br /> Depaklnent Head —'- <br /> I <br /> i <br /> I <br /> 3 <br />
