Odi o City Manager RECOMMENDATION DATE : F E B 2 l 1999 Fi1P - 2 9 84 SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing Agreement - Fire Station #1 Steel Tank Removal REFERENCES: ENCLOSURES : It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, between the City of Miami and PI ECO Miami, Inc., for professional services in connection with the removal and disposal of two (2) steel fuel tanks located at Fire Station #1, in accordance with State and County environmental guidelines, at a cost of $9,248.21 BACKGROUND The Department of Public Works and the Department of Fire have determined that there exists a need to remove and dispose of two (2) steel fuel tanks located at Fire Station #1, in accordance with directives from the State of Florida and Dade County, in addition, it is suspected that at least one (1) of these tanks has leaked an undetermined amount of fuel into the ground. These tanks were originally installed in 1961. Proposals were received by Public Works on November 21, 1989, from two (2) companies interested in supplying the necessary services. Staff from Public Works and the Fire Department have met among themselves, and with rep re ser,tatives from Dade County D£RM to evaluate the proposals received. After said review, it is recommended that an agreement be entered into with PIECO Miami, Inc. , for the removal of the tanks at a cost of $9,248.21. This figure represents the minimum cost associated with this project. "A Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission Page 2 It is important to point out that if further action is deemed '> necessary by DERM (ie.: preparation of a contamination assessment s report <CAR>, and the implementation of a remedial action plan <RAP>, the final cost of the work may escalate considerably; an estimated figure of $200,000 is not unreasonable. This further action by DERM could be required if excessive contamination is found in the excavated soil once the tanks are removed, and if the d!; groundwater has been contaminated also. The high cost figure mentioned contemplates cleanup, sampling, monitoring, recovery of contami nant, and ma+i ntenance. It is not possible to determine exact costs prior to excavation and analysis of the situation. ' Commission authorization will be requested for any additional expenditure above this original amount of $9,2.48.21.
