RE: Engineering Services Agreement for 2014 -2017 Illicit Discharge Detection and
Elimination Program — Ongoing Field Screening of Storm Sewer Outfalls
OMNNI Associates, Inc. ( OMNNI) ($113,352)
BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Works requested a proposal from OMNNI to perform the ongoing
Storm Sewer Outfall Screening for 2014 — 2017. The ongoing field screening of storm sewer
outfalls is required by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) under
Wisconsin Administrative Code Section NR 216, and the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer
System General Permit WI- S050075 -1. The WDNR administers this program in accordance
with the United States Environmental Protection Agency Clean Water Act.
ANALYSIS
OMNNI was chosen based upon their experience in performing these services for other
communities within the Fox Valley region, and their experience in performing the initial field
screening for the City of Oshkosh in 2009 and the 2010 -2013 ongoing field screening.
FISCAL. IMPACT
The cost of these services over the course of the four -year contract is estimated not to exceed
$113,352. Funding for these services is available in the Storm Water Utility.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh provides that professional services of
a specialized nature, including engineering services, may be procured without the use of formal,
sealed quotes. I have reviewed this agreement and in accordance with Section 12 -16 of the
Code, I am hereby recommending that the Common Council approve the award of this
engineering services agreement.
