Funds will be allocated from the Capital Improvements Project (CIP) Project No. 313304, Account Code 289401.6.850, as funded by the Fire Assessment. BACKGROUND On July 9, 2002, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 02-821, accepting the bids of Austin's Diving Center, Inc., Divers Unlimited, Leisure Pro, Ltd., and Mermaids Dive Center, awarded pursuant to Bids No. 01-02-134R, for the provision of diving equipment for the Department of Fire -Rescue, in a total amount not to exceed $58,393.90. Subsequently, to the original bids the Department realized that additional diving equipment were needed, such as: ten (10) each regulators, octopus, compass modules, first stage regulators, swivels, low pressure supply hoses and adapters, pressure/depth gauges, combat divers dress dry suits, and latex hoods with thermal caps, sixteen (16) stabilization jackets, four (4) buddy -phone communication kits, and one (1) surface station. The additional equipment is necessary to replace destroyed and/or worn equipment utilized by the department dive rescue team that consists of forty-five (45) members and other emergency response personnel. The Department of Fire -Rescue is currently operating without any spare regulators, octopus, compass modules, first stage regulators, swivels, low pressure supply hoses and related dive equipment and the existing equipment is ten years old and in need of replacement. Recently, the department has experienced a rash of failures with their existing regulators and octopus currently in service. During the past ten (10) years this equipment has been overhauled seven (7) times and is no longer reliable. This equipment is the primary breathing system and is a vital tool used for deep -water rescue operations. 02-1047 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission Page 2 of 2 Currently, the dive team has no combat diver's dress dry suits. These suits are needed because the majority of the department rescue dives are in contaminated water. (i.e. various canals and the Miami River). These waterways are filled with toxins, heavy metals, which acute or cumulative exposures risks to the life and health of our divers. The proposed suits are analogous to the encapsulated suits the Hazardous materials team wears when working with dangerous chemicals. In addition, stabilization jackets are needed by each diver to attain neutral and sometimes emergency positive buoyancy. These act as the backpack for the tanks and an emergency ascent device should it is necessary. Therefore, the requested equipment is essential to ensure the safety and well being of our divers and citizens of the City Miami. Most importantly, the additional dive equipment would enable the team to function at peak efficiency in emergency rescue situations. The Department of Fire -Rescue has analyzed the bids received pursuant to Bid No. 01-01-134R. Four (4) invitations for bid were mailed and four (4) responses were received. Bids submitted by Austin's Diving Center, Inc., Divers Unlimited, Leisure Pro, Ltd., and Mermaids Diving Center were deemed as the lowest responsible and responsive bids, and therefore recommended for the award and increase. It is now necessary to include the additional diving equipment and increase the total amount of contract with Austin's Diving Center, Inc., Divers Unlimited, Leisure Pro, Ltd., and Mermaids Diving Center in an amount not to exceed $28,062.36, from $58,393.90 to $86,456.26.
