SUMMARY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Flushing of the City's distribution system is a maintenance function mandated by the EPA that removes
stagnant water, restores disinfectant residuals, removes loose deposits, cleans pipe surfaces, reduces
water age, and decreases water quality complaints. Conventional flushing methods waste the flushed
water onto the ground. The water is not recovered. The NO-DES flushing method uses a filtered looping
method that cleanses the flushed water and loops it back into the distribution system so no water is
wasted. The city has used this method since FY20. Neighborhoods being flushed in FY26 includes 55
miles of lines in Tartesso and Watson Estates, and staff wishes to use the same water-saving,
Hydrologics, Inc. method for a total cost not to exceed $550,000.
BENEFITS:
Maintain compliance with EPA standards while saving water and ensuring customer satisfaction.
FUTURE ACTION:
None.

The total cost of this contract is $550,000 and is included in the approved FY26 budget.
