In 2009 the City standardized on Environment One (E-One) residential grinder pump systems to
ensure consistency of quality, maintenance and serviceability for all new grinder pump systems
installed in the City. Standardization was necessary given a determination by Ecology that all new
grinder pumps required Municipal ownership per WAC 173-240-105. In 2010, the City entered a 10-
year contract with Correct Equipment, Inc. (CE) to service and maintain E-One grinder pump
systems. At that time and continuing to the present, CE is the only vendor in Washington state
authorized by E-One to sell and service these grinder pumps systems. In the 2010 contract, there
were approximately 40 E-One grinder pump systems; today, there are over 200 of these systems
that discharge to the City sewer system. Since CE is the only vendor authorized by E-One to
maintain and repair these systems, the City will continue to sole -source these services from CE.
The new contract will be for a 10-year term.
ATTACHMENTS:
1. Grinder Pump System Maintenance Agreement (with Attachments A to F)
2. Sole -source justification for Correct Equipment, Inc.
FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): The City receives approximately $30,000 per year
from the grinder pump system surcharge. The annual maintenance cost of these pump systems is
$20,000 plus repair costs and is included in the WWTP operations budget.
