A copy of the tabulation is attached. Public Content Request approval of the committee's recommendation to award the Emergency Bid for Electrical Wire Replacement at Ruckel Middle School to Bearden Construction Company, Inc. in the amount of $32,754.00. The amount of $26,854.00 for wire replacement and $5,900.00 for the option to replace the conduit, if needed. Emergency Bid procedures per School Board Policy 2-17(A)(13) were used for this solicitation due to the following: Ruckel Middle School lost power to part of the campus on Wednesday, October 8, 2014. The Maintenance Department discovered conductors that pose a potential to short out a 400 amp feed to one (1) of the ramps at Ruckel. What caused the electrical splice to deteriorate is unknown. What is known is that it should not have occurred. One (1) of the four (4) 600 MCM Aluminum conductors shorted out and overheated causing the outage. The damaged conductor is still alive and overheating is damaging the conductor it is laying on in the underground manhole. They could short out at any time and we would have to rent a generator to run that portion of the school until the new conductors are installed. Funding will be paid from Capital funds, Project 2336, Emergency Maintenance-District Wide. A copy of the tabulation is attached.
