• <br />I LHA NORTH COUNTY REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER <br />TREATMENT PLANT - MAINTENANCE REPAIR OF <br />AUXILIARY GENERATOR - RINGHAVER EQUIPMENT <br />COMPANY <br />The Board reviewed a Memorandum of June 1, 2000: <br />DATE: JUNE 1. 2000 <br />T0: JAMES E. CHANDLER <br />COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />FROM: DONALD R. HUBBS, PE. <br />DIRECTOR., DEPT. OF UTI VICES <br />PREPARED <br />& STAFFED BY: GENE A. RAUTH <br />OPERATIONS MANAGER <br />SUBJECT. MAINTENANCE REPAIR OF AUXILIARY GENERATOR <br />NORTH COUNTY REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER <br />TREATMENT PLANT <br />BACKGROUND: <br />The North County Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant site has been pumping <br />potable water for approximately 6 years. Provisions for auxiliary power for the piant site <br />is provided by a 1250 kW diesel generator, which is approximately 6 years old. At the <br />present time, Indian River County has a Contract with Ringhaver Equipment Company of <br />Palm Bay, Florida, for generator maintenance and service. (See attached Agenda item <br />dated 12/20/99). Ringhaver Equipment Company is a factory -authorized, Caterpillar <br />Equipment Repair Center. Under the County's Contract with Ringhaver Equipment <br />Company, a factory technician performed an annual preventative maintenance inspection <br />and service of the generator on 05/10/00. <br />ANALYSIS: <br />As a result of this inspection and service of the generator, it has been determined that <br />maintenance repairs are required to properly maintain this piece of equipment. Staff has <br />obtained a repair estimate\quote from the Ringhaver Equipment Company in the amount <br />of $7,950.29, (see attached), for the required repairs. To have Ringhaver Equipment <br />Company provide this service is a natural extension of the existing Contract, and the <br />price quoted appears to be in line with the cost of this type of work. Furthermore, it <br />allows all work of this nature to be done by a single entity, which is advantageous to the <br />County. <br />JUNE 139 2000 <br />r- 1- <br />-57- BOOK j <br />• <br />
