Re: Pennsylvania Underpass Stormwater Pump Station Generator
This letter is to inform you that the City of Beaumont Engineering Department was notified by the
Facilities Maintenance department on November 5th about a radiator leak on the permanent 1-
megawatt generator at the Pennsylvania Avenue Underpass pump station. The generator provides
emergency power to the pump station in the event of a power failure, ensuring continued operation of
the pumps. The station pumps out rainwater along MILK Parkway where it crosses Pennsylvania Ave and
Park Street.
Due to the critical importance of maintaining reliable electric service to the pump station, Public
Works/Engineering has determined that rebuilding the radiator must be performed on an emergency
basis. Due to the age of the generator, parts are not available, therefore the radiator must be rebuilt.
On November 11, 2024, the City obtained a proposal not to exceed the amount of $59,400.00 from
Emergency Power Service to perform the necessary repair work. Emergency Power Service will remove
the radiator and refurbish it with new cores, gaskets, bolts, and replace all hoses on the engine. They will
also replace the two excessively worn fan pillar block bearings. Once rebuilt, it will be reinstalled, topped
off with new coolant, tested, and checked for leaks.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me at (409) 880-3725.

get it taken apen art and identify the type of cores it has)
Jimmy, per your request we are pleased to provide the following quotation. We propose to remove the leaking radiator from
the unit and have it refurbished, with new cores, gaskets, bolts, and replace all the hoses on the engine. We will also replace
the two fan pillar block bearings while we have it dismantled. They are excessively worn. Once the radiator is rebuilt, we will
put it back in and top off with new 50/50 premix coolant We will also inspect the thermostats while the unit is down. When all
is complete, we will test run the unit to check for leaks.
