Pricing must be provided on a per-linear-foot basis for both pre-cleaning and CCTV inspection services, segmented by three pipe diameter ranges (8–24 inches, greater than 24–48 inches, and greater than 48–60 inches), with estimated linear footages of 332,640, 29,568, and 7,392 feet respectively. A separate lump-sum estimate is required for temporary traffic control including equipment, labor, and traffic control specialist staffing.

To inform the City’s Asset Management, Capital, and Maintenance programs, the City seeks to obtain CCTV condition inspection of all uninspected pipes (approximately 213 miles), by the end of 2030. The collection of inspection data is planned to be executed in a phased approach using contracted services.

Project Overview

This project includes conducting hydro-jet pre-cleaning (pre-cleaning) and CCTV condition assessments of approximately 70 miles of stormwater mainline pipes ranging from 8” to 60” in diameter, accessible from the public right-of-way, within the City of Bellevue.

Reporting should be provided via phone call to City Project Manager and followed up by an email that includes JPEG pictures of identified defect, Asset IDs of pipe segment, upstream/downstream structures, and nearest address or parcel ID.
