Dear Sir:
Authority is requested to add Project 15-901-21 Furnish, Deliver and Install Four Sacrificial Deep Anode Ground Beds for the Cathodic Protection System Located at the Mainstream Pumping Station, to the Construction Fund, at the request of the Maintenance and Operations Department.
The project consists of installing and testing four (4) sacrificial deep anode ground beds and a rectifier at the Mainstream Pumping Station. The sacrificial deep anodes and rectifier, as part of the cathodic protection system, are used to create a low level, impressed current that provides protection from galvanic corrosion. The purpose of the project is to restore the full performance of the cathodic protection system for the Mainstream Pumping Station. This work will protect valuable underground equipment and structures from harmful electric currents.
The estimated cost of the project is $460,000.00.
