MEETING DATE: February 22, 2005
AGENDA MEMO DATE: February 8, 2005
REQUESTED ACTION: Council approval of the purchase of one(1)diesel powered cab and
chassis equipped with a jet rodder sewer vacuum system.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends the purchase of one (1) 2006 Sterling L8500 diesel powered cab and
chassis equipped with a jet rodder sewer vacuum body for the Public Works Department, Water
Utilities Division, through the Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) cooperative purchasing
program.
BACKGROUND
The jet rodder sewer vacuum system is capable of breaking clogs and blocked debris in sewer lines.
With this system, debris and grease can be pulled to a manhole and vacuumed from the line.
Currently, the Water Utilities Division has only one jet rodder sewer vacuum truck. They have
several flush trucks that are used to open clogged lines but these trucks are limited as they are not
designed to pull the debris to the manhole for removal. According to the Water Utilities Division,
there are 780 miles of sewer lines in Beaumont which need preventative cleaning to ensure adequate
flow.
The truck will be ordered from H-GAC's contracted vendors,the chassis from Houston Freightliner,
Inc. of Houston, Texas, at a cost of $62,299 and the jet rudder vacuum body from Vactor
Manufacturing of Streator, Illinois, at a cost of $153,200. Each price includes an H-GAC
administrative fee of$600.
The truck will replace Unit 3260, a 1996 Ford 8000 jet rodder truck, which will be disposed of
according to the City's surplus policy procedures.
