Quote
The Northgate Pump Station is the biggest pump station within the City and
usually operates with two pumps - one in use and one as a backup. It is currently
running on only one pump as the second pump is beyond repair. Should that
pump fail, there would be no sewer services for any of the connected area,
including the high school.
The Fairbanks brand vertical solids handling pump that is in the attached quote is
a direct replacement to the failed pump. Hayes Pump, Inc. is the local distributer
of Fairbanks, making this a sole source purchase.
