The current Blue Line (BL) Traction Power Substation’s Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear, (eight (8)), was put into service 16 years ago on November 4, 2007. The Maintenance of Way (MOW) department has exhausted its in-house spare parts for this system, which has become obsolete. The pad-mounted disconnect DC switchgear for the BL is required for a mid-life refresh. MOW is upgrading and refreshing the Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear equipment for the BL.

Scope:

Vendor will provide nine (9) 2kA pad-mounted DC disconnect switch line-ups at the locations specified in the drawings. All disconnect switch line-ups shall be pre-assembled and include the following components:

Exterior operating handle (for manual operation, pad-lockable in both the open and closed positions)
2kA rated bolted pressure switch
Glastic standoff insulators
Mechanical lugs
500 MCM mechanical lugs
Switch control circuit boards
Copper bus to switches
Limit switch for remote indication
Solenoid interlock
“MAC” switch nameplate with switch serial number and rating
AC Relays

The Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear is designed for installation on a concrete pad outdoors. It allows for the isolation of a power circuit by physically disconnecting the conductors, functioning as a large, weatherproof switch that can be operated safely without exposing live parts to the environment.

The Blackmon Street Storm Drainage Improvement Project is bordered by Sampson Street to the north, Hoskins Road to the south, Ridgeley Drive to the east, and Sampson Street.

The need for this project was identified through citizen reported drainage requests including road flooding and complaints of finished floor (structure) flooding.

The purpose of the project will be to improve the storm drainage infrastructure to reduce flooding of streets and structures.

Rhodes SDIP is a minor bid project that was created to address the service request at 3738 Rhodes and is located on the City project dashboard.

The Shade Valley Pond Repairs project was initiated in order to relieve the City of significant efforts and costs of ongoing pond maintenance.  Proposed improvements to the pond are intended to address nuisance vegetation, increase storage capacity, address geese issues, and enhance the overall aesthetics of the pond.  Goals are to restore pond to “below normal pool” volumes via dredging of forebay and main pool to increase water quality function and remove available nutrients contributing to duckweed and algal blooms.  The entirety of the pond and littoral shelf will be replanted with wetland plantings and trees to enhance aesthetics and decrease attractiveness of pond to geese. Geese preventative measures are proposed to establish plantings.
