Resolution to Approve a Contract with Matzak Inc., for the Fuel Tank Replacement Project at 2000 South Industrial Highway (ITB - $149,400.00) (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
We recommend your approval of the attached resolution authorizing a contract in the amount of $149,400.00 with Matzak Inc., for the removal of two underground storage tanks (USTs) and the installation of one aboveground storage tank (AST) at the City's fueling facility at 2000 South Industrial Highway.

The City already has a 5,000 gallon AST at the facility which was converted to a diesel tank to address the loss of the UST that was removed from service. As part of this project, the successful vendor will install an additional 8,000 gallon AST for gasoline at the facility.
The work will include the removal, closure and disposal of the two USTs and associated piping and pumps in full compliance with State and Federal regulations. A complete Site Assessment including all sampling, testing and reporting as required by law and industry best practice. Backfill with clean, compacted soils and graded and seeded per the City requirements. The work will also include supply and installation of the new AST, piping and pump control. Site preparation including grading, limited demolition, retaining wall, and concrete work is also in the project.
The City is not aware of any contaminated soils from these existin...
