This IGA would allow Build Up Cook to inspect a tunnel under the Little Calumet River, owned by the Village of Riverdale, to determine its fitness to house a new watermain that could supply the City of Harvey.
Projects will include:
• Provide services to inspect the current condition of the tunnel to determine if it is suitable to house a new water supply main sufficient to meet the needs of the City of Harvey
• If necessary to complete a thorough inspection process as described above, dewater (pump out) the tunnel
• Pump effluent will be discharged in accordance with required permit process(es)
The Bureau of Asset Management is in the process of an emergency procurement in collaboration with the Office of the Chief Procurement Officer to execute a contract to perform this work.
